To unlock the driver's door, press the UNLOCK button.
If you press this button again within five seconds, all the
doors will unlock. Press the
REAR 2X button twice to
unlock the rear door only. When the UNLOCK or
REAR 2X button is pressed, the interior dome lamps are
turned on for 40 seconds or until the ignition switch is
activated. Press LOCK to lock all doors.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry 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, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have only two transmitters
matched to it.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about two years.
You can tell the battery
is 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 battery.

NOTICE:
When replacing the battery, use care not to touch
any of the circuitry. Static from your body
transferred to these surfaces may damage the
transmitter.
Use one Panasonic@ type CR2032 battery:

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Brake Adjustment
Every time you make a brake stop, your disc brakes
adjust for wear.
Battery
If your brake pedal goes down farther than normal, your
rear drum brakes may need adjustment. Adjust them by
backing up and firmly applying the brakes a few times.
Replacing Brake System Parts
The braking system on a modern vehicle is complex.
Its many parts have to be of top quality and work well
together if the vehicle is to have really good braking.
Your vehicle
was designed and tested with top-quality
GM brake parts. When you replace parts
of your braking
system
-- for example, when your brake linings wear
down and you have to have new ones put in
-- be sure
you get new approved GM replacement parts. If you
don’t, your brakes may
no longer work properly. For
example, if someone
puts in brake linings that are wrong
for your vehicle, the balance between your front and
rear brakes can change
-- for the worse. The braking
performance you’ve come to expect can change
in many
other ways if someone puts in the wrong replacement
brake
parts.
Every new vehicle has an ACDelco Freedom@ battery.
You never have to add water to one of these. When it’s
time for a new battery, we recommend an ACDelco
Freedom battery. Get one that has the replacement
number shown on the original battery’s label.
If you have a diesel engine, you have two batteries. The
primary battery is located on the passenger’s side
of the
engine compartment. The second battery is located
on
the driver’s side framerail.
Vehicle Storage
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days
or more, remove the black, negative
(-) cable from
the battery. This will help keep your battery from
running down.
