Footnotes
† = The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the
California Air Resources Board has determined that the
failure to perform this maintenance item will not nullify
the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to
the completion of the vehicle’s useful life. We, however,
urge that all recommended maintenance services be
performed at the indicated intervals and the
maintenance be recorded.
(1)= If your vehicle has an Allison Transmission
®, your
GM owner manual is supplemented by an Allison
Transmission
®Operator’s Manual. Always refer to these
manuals for related maintenance services.
(2)= An Emission Control Service.
(3)= A Noise Emission Control Device.
(4)= Applies only to vehicles sold in the United States.
(5)= Check fluid level in brake master cylinder,
power steering pump, axle, transmission and hydraulic
spring parking brake pump (if equipped). A low fluid
level in the brake master cylinder can indicate
worn brake linings and should be checked accordingly.

torque values at 100 miles (160 km). Thereafter, tighten
them 1,000 miles (1 600 km) after each time the
wheel is removed. SeeTightening the Wheel Nuts on
page 5-73.
(37)= Inspect and clean any accumulated dirt, gravel,
or other foreign objects from the valves and valve boots
as needed. Using light oil, lubricate brake pedal to
brake application valve linkage components. Check any
