6-31 Replacing Brake System Parts
The braking system on a 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.
Battery
Your new vehicle comes with a maintenance free
ACDelco
battery. When it's time for a new battery, get
one that has the replacement number shown on the
original battery's label. We recommend an
ACDelco battery.
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 frame rail.
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.
CAUTION:
Batteries have acid that can burn you and gas
that can explode. You can be badly hurt if you
aren't careful. See ªJump Startingº in the Index
for tips on working around a battery without
getting hurt.
Contact your dealer to learn how to prepare your vehicle
for longer storage periods.
Also, for your audio system, see ªTheft
-Deterrent
Featureº in the Index.
