If you turn off the ignition or radio with a disc in the
player, it will stay in the player. When you turn on the
ignition or system, the disc will start playing where it was
stopped. If you press EJECT but don't remove the disc,
the player will pull the disc back in to protect it after
about one minute. If you leave a compact disc in the
player while listening to the radio, it may become warm.
Trunk-Mounted CD Changer (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a trunk-mounted
CD changer. It is located in the rear center storage
compartment. See ªRear Storage Compartmentsº in the
Index for more information.
With the optional compact disc changer, you can play up
to 12 discs continuously. Normal size discs may be played
using the trays supplied in the magazine. The small discs
(8 cm) can be played only with specially designed trays.
NOTICE:
Heavy objects in the center storage area which may
shift or slide while driving could damage your CD
changer. Protect your CD changer by not placing
heavy, moveable objects in the center storage area.
You must first load the magazine with discs before you
can play a compact disc. Each of the 12 trays holds one
disc. Press the button on the back of the magazine and
pull gently on one of the trays. Load the trays from
bottom to top, placing a disc on the tray label side down.
If you load a disc label side up, the disc will not play
and an error will occur. Gently push the tray back into
the magazine slot. Repeat this procedure for loading up
to 12 discs in the magazine.

Whenever a CD magazine with discs is loaded in the
changer, the CD symbol will appear on the radio display.
If the CD changer is checking the magazine for CDs, the
CD symbol will flash on the display until the changer is
ready to play. When a CD begins playing, a disc and
track number will be displayed. The disc numbers are
listed on the front of the magazine.

Compact Disc Changer Errors
If an error occurs while trying to play a CD in the
compact disc changer, the following conditions may
have caused the error:

The road is too rough. The disc should play when the
road is smoother.

The disc is dirty, scratched, wet or loaded label side up.

The air is very humid. (If so, wait about an hour and
try again.)

The CD changer door is open. Completely close the
changer door to restore normal operation.

An empty magazine is inserted in the CD changer.
Try the magazine again with a disc loaded on one of
the trays.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error cannot be
corrected, please contact your dealer.

Filling a Portable Fuel Container
CAUTION:
Never fill a portable fuel container while it is in
your vehicle. Static electricity discharge from the
container can ignite the gasoline vapor. You can
be badly burned and your vehicle damaged if this
occurs. To help avoid injury to you and others:

Dispense gasoline only into
approved containers.

Do not fill a container while it is inside a
vehicle, in a vehicle's trunk, pickup bed or
on any surface other than the ground.

Bring the fill nozzle in contact with the
inside of the fill opening before operating
the nozzle. Contact should be maintained
until the filling is complete.

Don't smoke while pumping gasoline.
Checking Things Under the Hood
CAUTION:
An electric fan under the hood can start up and
injure you even when the engine is not running.
Keep hands, clothing and tools away from any
underhood electric fan.
CAUTION:
Things that burn can get on hot engine parts and
start a fire. These include liquids like gasoline,
oil, coolant, brake fluid, windshield washer and
other fluids, and plastic or rubber. You or others
could be burned. Be careful not to drop or spill
things that will burn onto a hot engine.

Used Replacement Wheels
CAUTION:
Putting a used wheel on your vehicle is
dangerous. You can't know how it's been used or
how far it's been driven. It could fail suddenly
and cause an accident. If you have to replace a
wheel, use a new GM original equipment wheel.
Using the Wheel Lock Key
If you have a hardtop, the wheel lock key sits in a small
depression in the trunk rail, on the left-hand side,
underneath the carpeting.
If you have a coupe or a convertible, the wheel lock key
sits in a small depression in the trunk rail directly under
the left
-hand rear compartment cover.
Your vehicle's wheel lock key has a unique registration
number. The registration number is printed on a card
included in your lock nut package. Also on this card is
lost key replacement information. This number is not
recorded by GM or your dealer, so be sure not to lose
this card. You will need the information if you ever lose
your wheel lock key.If you or someone else is going to remove the wheels on
your vehicle, make sure that the special wheel nut socket
and wheel lock key are being used.
NOTICE:
Your wheels could be damaged if the wheel nut
socket is not used to remove your vehicle's wheels.
The wheel nut socket can be used with an air wrench or
a torque wrench. The wheel lock key can be used with a
torque wrench, but not with an air or impact wrench.
NOTICE:
Your wheel lock key or lock nuts could be
damaged if an air or impact wrench is used with
this key.
