Stored Position Folded-Down Position
Your extended cab pickup has jump seats in the rear area. To fold the jump
seat down, pull down
on the handle on the bottom of the seat until the seat is
in place, then move the seatback to a vertical position.
To store the seat, fold
the seatback down
on the cushion, then push the entire seat up until it is
flush with the trim panels.
Don’t let the safety belts be damaged by the hinges
or the latches. Safety
belts should be folded and stored between
the seat cushion and seatback.
Safety Belts: They’re for Everyone
This part of the manual tells you how to use safety belts properly. It also
tells you some things
you should not do with safety belts.
And it explains the Supplemental Inflatable Restraint, or
“air bag” system.
A CAUTION:
Don’t let anyone ride where he or she can’t wear a safety belt
properly.
If you are in a crash and you’re not wearing a safety
belt, your injuries can be much worse. You can hit things inside
the vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be seriously injured or
killed. In the same crash,
you might not be if you are buckled
up. Always fasten your safety belt, and check that your
passengers’ belts are fastened properly too.

AIR BAG. The system checks the air bag’s electrical system for
malfunctions. The light tells
you if there is an electrical problem. See “Air
Bag Readiness Light” in the Index for more information.
How the Air Bag System Works
Where is the air bag?
The driver’s air bag is in the middle of the steering wheel.

Now and then, make sure all your belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors,
anchorages and reminder systems are working properly. Look for any other
loose or damaged restraint system parts. If you see anything that might keep
a restraint system from doing its job, have it repaired.
Torn or frayed belts may not protect you in
a crash. They can rip apart under
impact forces.
If a belt is torn or frayed, get a new one right away.
Replacing Seat and Restraint System Parts
After
a Crash
If you’ve had a crash, do you need new belts’?
After a very minor collision, nothing may be necessary. But if the belts were
stretched, as they would be if worn during a more severe crash, then
YOU
need new belts.
If belts are cut or damaged, replace them. Collision damage also may mean
you will need to have safety belt or seat parts repaired or replaced. New
parts and repairs may be necessary even if
the belt wasn’t being used at the
time of the collision.
Before replacing any safety belt, see your dealer for
the correct part number.
You’ll need the model year and model number for your vehicle. The model
year
is on your title and registration. And you can find the model number on
the CertificatiodTire label of your vehicle. See “Certification/Tire Label” in
the Index.
The model number
on the replacement belt must be listed on the safety belt
you want to replace. Pull the shoulder belt all
the way out to see this label.

Operation
When you press UNLOCK, the driver’s door will unlock automatically. If
you press UNLOCK again within five seconds,
all doors will unlock. All
doors will lock when LOCK is pressed.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another transmitter from
unlocking your vehicle. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can
be purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring any remaining
transmitters with you when you go to your dealer. When the dealer matches
the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, the remaining transmitters must
also be matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the lost transmitter will
not unlock your vehicle.
You can match a transmitter to as many different vehicles as you own,
provided they
are equipped with exactly the same model system. (General
Motors offers several different models
of these systems on their vehicles.)
Each vehicle can have only two transmitters matched to
it.
See your dealer to match transmitters to another vehicle.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the batteries in your key chain transmitter should last
about two years.
You can tell the batteries are weak if the transmitter won’t work at the
normal range in any location. If you have to get close to your vehicle before
the transmitter works, it’s probably time to change the batteries.

NOTICE:
Holding your key in START for longer than 15 seconds at a time

excessive heat can damage your starter motor.
2. If it doesn’t start right away, hold your key in START. If it doesn’t start

Driving Through Deep Standing Water
1 NOTICE:
If you drive too quickly through deep puddles or standing water,
water can come in through your engine’s air intake and badly
damage your engine. Never drive through water that is slightly
lower than the underbody of your vehicle.
If you can’t avoid
deep puddles or standing water, drive through them very slowly.

you shift into four-wheel drive. A slight delay between shifting and the
pattern’s lighting is normal. If the pattern does not light up, or
if the front
axle lights do not go out after you shift out of four-wheel drive, have your
dealer check your system. Turn the INT LIGHTS switch located to the right
of your headlight switch
to dim your transfer case indicator light when your
headlights or parking lights are
on. This will also cause your instrument
panel lights to dim.
2HI - This setting is for driving in most street and highway situations.
Your front axle is not engaged in two-wheel drive.
4HI - This setting engages your front axle to help drive your vehicle. Use
4HI when you need extra traction, such as on snowy or icy roads, or in most
off-road situations.
N SET PARK BRAKE - Shift to this neutral setting only when your
vehicle needs to be towed.
4LO - This setting also efigziges your front axle to give you extra traction
and provides extra gear reduction. You may never need 4LO. It
sends the
maximum power to all four wheels. You might choose 4LO if you were
driving off-road in sand, mud, or deep snow and climbing or descending
steep hills.
You can shift from 2HI to 4HI
or from 4HI to 2HI while the vehicle is
moving.
Do not press the transfer case shift lever button when shifting from
2HI to
4HI or from 4HI to 2HT. Your front axle will engage faster if you
take your foot off of the accelerator for a few seconds after you shift.
To shift your transfer case into N SET PARK BRAKE:
1. Stop the vehicle and shift your transmission into NEUTRAL
(N).
2. Set the parking brake. Your vehicle can roll unless the brakes are
applied.
3. Pull the transfer case shift lever into N SET PARK BRAKE.
To shift into or out of 4LO:
1. The vehicle must be stopped or moving less than 3 mph (4.8 km/h)
with the transmission in NEUTRAL
(N) for an automatic transmission
or the clutch pedal depressed with a manual transmission.
2. Press the transfer case shift button and shift in one continuous motion.
Don’t pause in
N SET PARK BRAKE as you shift into or out of 4L0, or
your gears could clash.
Remember that driving in 4HI or 4LO may reduce fuel economy. Also,
driving in four-wheel drive
on dry pavement could cause your tires to wear
faster and make your transfer case harder to shift and reduce powertrain
longevity.
