Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster
Before you begin to drive, move the shoulder belt
adjuster to the height that is right for you.To move it down, press down on the power seat recline
control and move the height adjuster to the desired
position. You can move the adjuster up just by pushing
up on the power seat recline control. After you move the
adjuster to where you want it, try to move it down
without pushing the power seat recline control to make
sure it has locked into position.
Adjust the height so that the shoulder portion of the
belt is centered on your shoulder. The belt should be
away from your face and neck, but not falling off
your shoulder.
Shoulder Belt Tightness Adjustment
Your vehicle may have a shoulder belt tightness
adjustment feature. You can tell if your vehicle has this
feature by following the steps below. If you can add a
small amount of slack, your vehicle has this feature. If
the shoulder belt seems too tight, adjust it before you
begin to drive.
1. Sit well back in the seat.
2. Pull the shoulder belt all the way out of the retractor.
3. Let the belt go back all the way.

lower a window completely. If you want to stop the
window as it is lowering, press the control forward briefly.
Press the control forward again to raise the window.
The first rearward position on the power window
control operates the driver's power window in the
non
-express mode.

Pressing this button down will disable the rear window
controls and cause the button to light, indicating that the
feature is in use. To restore power to the rear windows,
press the button again.
Horn
The horn can be sounded by pressing on the center of
the steering wheel pad.
Tilt Wheel and Telescopic Column
Tilt steering allows you to
adjust the steering wheel
before you drive. Raising
the steering wheel to the
highest level gives your legs
more room when you enter
and exit the vehicle.
This knob is located on the outboard side of the steering
column. Push up or down on the knob to adjust the tilt
of steering wheel. Then, push back or pull forward on
the knob, to adjust the height of the steering column.
Release the knob to lock the wheel and column
into place.
It is also possible to move the steering column to a
different position by momentarily pressing the
adjustment knob.

6-32 Brake Wear
Your vehicle has four-wheel disc brakes.
Disc brake pads have built
-in wear indicators that make a
high
-pitched warning sound when the brake pads are worn
and new pads are needed. The sound may come and go or
be heard all the time your vehicle is moving (except when
you are pushing on the brake pedal firmly).
CAUTION:
The brake wear warning sound means that soon
your brakes won't work well. That could lead to
an accident. When you hear the brake wear
warning sound, have your vehicle serviced.
NOTICE:
Continuing to drive with worn-out brake pads
could result in costly brake repair.
Some driving conditions or climates may cause a brake
squeal when the brakes are first applied or lightly
applied. This does not mean something is wrong with
your brakes.
Properly torqued wheel nuts are necessary to help
prevent brake pulsation. When tires are rotated, inspect
brake pads for wear and evenly torque wheel nuts in the
proper sequence to GM specifications.
Brake linings should always be replaced as complete
axle sets.
See ªBrake System Inspectionº in the
Maintenance Schedule booklet under Part C ªPeriodic
Maintenance Inspections.º
Brake Pedal Travel
See your dealer if the brake pedal does not return to
normal height, or if there is a rapid increase in pedal
travel. This could be a sign of brake trouble.
Brake Adjustment
Every time you apply the brakes, with or without the
vehicle moving, your brakes adjust for wear.
