Windshield Wiper Blade
Replacement
Windshield wiper blades should be inspected for wear
or cracking. SeeScheduled Maintenance on page 6-4.
It is a good idea to clean or replace the wiper blade
assembly on a regular basis or when worn. For proper
windshield wiper blade length and type, seeNormal
Maintenance Replacement Parts on page 6-13.To replace the wiper blade assembly, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition to ACCESSORY, with the
engine off.
2. Pull the windshield wiper assembly away from the
windshield.
3. Squeeze the tabs on each side of the wiper blade
assembly and slide the assembly off the end of the
wiper arm.

The system can alert you about a low tire — but it does
not replace normal tire maintenance. SeeTires on
page 5-56.
When the tire pressure warning light and the CHECK
TIRE PRESSURE message comes on, you should stop
as soon as you can and check all your tires for
damage. If a tire is at, seeIf a Tire Goes Flat on
page 5-72. Also check the tire pressure in all four tires
as soon as you can. SeeInation - Tire Pressure
on page 5-62.
Any time you adjust a tire’s pressure or have one or
more tires repaired or replaced, you will need to reset
(calibrate) the check tire pressure system. You will
also need to reset the system whenever you rotate the
tires, buy new tires, and install or remove the compact
spare tire.
Do not reset the check tire pressure system without rst
correcting the cause of the problem and checking
and adjusting the pressure in all four tires to the
recommended amount. SeeInation - Tire Pressure on
page 5-62. If you reset the system when the tire
pressures are incorrect, the check tire pressure system
will not work properly and may not alert you when a
tire is low or high.To reset (calibrate) the system:
1. Turn the ignition switch to RUN, with the engine off.
2. Press the vehicle information button on the DIC
until the PRESS
VTO RESET TIRE SYSTEM
message appears on the display.
3. Press and hold the DIC Set/Reset button for about
ve seconds. After ve seconds, the display will
show TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM RESET. If the
TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM RESET message does
not appear in the display after about ve seconds,
repeat the procedure starting with Step 2. If it does
not work after two tries, see your dealer for service.
The system completes the calibration process during
driving. The system learns the pressure at each tire
throughout the operating speed range of your vehicle.
The system normally takes between 20 and 45 minutes of
driving in each of the following speed ranges to learn tire
pressures: 25 to 40 mph (40 to 64 km/h), 40 to 60 mph
(64 to 96 km/h), and 60 to 85 mph (96 to 136 km/h). This
time may be longer depending on your individual driving
habits. Learning need not be accumulated during a single
trip. Once learned, the system will remember the tire
pressures until the system is reset.

When you are doing this inspection, the
vehicle could move suddenly. If the vehicle
moves, you or others could be injured.
1. Before you start, be sure you have enough room
around the vehicle. It should be parked on a level
surface.
2. Firmly apply the parking brake. SeeParking Brake
on page 2-28.
Be ready to apply the regular brake immediately if
the vehicle begins to move.
3. With the engine off, turn the ignition to RUN, but do
not start the engine. Without applying the regular

Ignition Transaxle Lock Check
While parked, and with the parking brake set, try to turn
the ignition to OFF in each shift lever position.
The ignition should turn to OFF only when the shift
lever is in PARK (P).
The key should come out only in OFF.
Contact your GM Goodwrench

Parking Brake and Automatic Transaxle
Park (P) Mechanism Check
{CAUTION:
When you are doing this check, your vehicle
could begin to move. You or others could be
injured and property could be damaged. Make
sure there is room in front of your vehicle in
case it begins to roll. Be ready to apply the
regular brake at once should the vehicle begin
to move.Park on a fairly steep hill, with the vehicle facing
downhill. Keeping your foot on the regular brake, set the
parking brake.
To check the parking brake’s holding ability: With
the engine running and transaxle in NEUTRAL (N),
slowly remove foot pressure from the regular
brake pedal. Do this until the vehicle is held by the
parking brake only.
To check the PARK (P) mechanism’s holding ability:
With the engine running, shift to PARK (P). Then
release the parking brake followed by the regular
brake.
Contact your GM Goodwrench
®dealer if service is
required.
Underbody Flushing Service
At least every spring, use plain water to ush any
