1-3 Power Seat(s) (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has a power seat on the driver's or
passenger's side, you can adjust it with these controls at
the outside edge of the seat. The switch is located on the
side of the seat, next to the door.
You can use the round center knob to move the seat to
where you want it. To raise the seat, move the knob up.
To lower the seat, move the knob down. To move the
seat forward, move the knob toward the front of the
vehicle. To move the seat rearward, move the knob
toward the rear of the vehicle.
You can also raise and lower the front and rear of the seat.
To raise the front of the seat, move the front lever up. To
lower the front of the seat, move the front lever down. Toraise the rear of the seat, move the rear lever up. To lower
the rear of the seat, move the rear lever down.
The switch located at the front of this control panel
is for the power lumbar adjustment, which is
explained next.
Power Lumbar Adjustment (If Equipped)
If you have power lumbar
adjustment, you can
increase or decrease lumbar
support in an area of the
lower seatback.
To increase support, press and hold the front of the
rocker switch. Let go of the switch when the lower
seatback reaches the desired level of support.
To decrease support, press and hold the rear of the
rocker switch. Let go of the switch when the lower
seatback reaches the desired level of support.

Be sure the cargo is properly loaded.
If small heavy objects are placed on the roof, place
the load in the area over the rear wheels (behind the
rear side door on Suburbans). If you need to, cut a
piece of 3/8 inch plywood to fit inside the crossrails
and side rails to spread the load. If plywood is used,
tie it to the side rail supports.
Tie the load to the crossrails or the side rail supports.
Use the crossrails only to keep the load from sliding.
If you need to carry long items, move the crossrails
as far apart as they will go. Tie the load to the
crossrails and the side rails or side rail supports. Also
tie the load to the bumpers. Do not tie the load so
tightly that the crossrails or side rails are damaged.
For the purpose of wind noise reduction, locate the
front crossrail approximately 18 to 24 inches
(46 cm to 58 cm) rearward of the front supports.
After moving the crossrails, be sure to tighten all the
slider screws.
Your vehicle has a Center High
-Mounted Stoplamp
(CHMSL) located above the tailgate glass or above the
rear load doors.
If items are loaded on the roof of the vehicle, care should
be taken not to block or damage the CHMSL unit.
Ashtrays and Cigarette Lighter
Front Ashtray
The front ashtray is located at the bottom of the
instrument panel. Pull on the notch in the ashtray door to
open it.
NOTICE:
If you store paper or other things that burn in
your ashtrays, they could be set on fire by
cigarettes or other smoking materials. That could
cause a fire and possibly damage your vehicle. Do
not store papers and other things that burn in
your ashtrays.
To remove the front ashtray, press the retainer spring
and pivot the ashtray toward you. To replace the ashtray,
place the bottom part of the ashtray on the pivot bar at
the bottom of its mounting on the instrument panel.
Then rotate the ashtray back to its original position.
