Rear Seat Operation
Your vehicle has a split folding rear seatback with a
center armrest. You can fold down either side of
the seatback to increase cargo space.
Folding the Seatback
To fold down the seatback, do the following:
1. Make sure that the front seats are not reclined.
If they are, the rear seatbacks will not fold down
all of the way.
2. Press down on the
release button located
on top of the rear
seatback.
3. Fold the rear seatback forward and down.

3. Move the lever toward SET/COAST and release it.
An indicator light on the instrument panel cluster
will come on to show you that the cruise control is
on. SeeCruise Control Light on page 3-43.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake pedal. This, of course,
shuts off the cruise control. But you do not need to reset
it. Once your vehicle is going about 18 mph (30 km/h)
or more, you can briefly move the cruise control lever
to RES/ACC.
You will go right back up to your chosen speed and
stay there.
If you hold the lever to RES/ACC longer, the vehicle
will keep going faster until you release the lever or
apply the brake pedal. So unless you want to go faster,
do not hold the lever at RES/ACC.
Increasing Speed While Using
Cruise Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed.
•Use the accelerator pedal to get to a higher speed.
Move the cruise control lever to SET/COAST,
then release the lever and the accelerator pedal.
You will now cruise at the higher speed.
•Move the cruise control lever to RES/ACC. Hold it
there until you get up to the speed you want, and
then release the lever. To increase your speed in
very small amounts, briefly move the lever to
RES/ACC and then release it. Each time you do this,
your vehicle will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.
The accelerate feature will only work after you have set
the cruise control speed by moving the cruise control
lever to SET/COAST.
Reducing Speed While Using
Cruise Control
There are two ways to reduce your speed while using
cruise control:
•Move the cruise control lever to SET/COAST until
you reach the lower speed you want, then release it.
•To slow down in very small amounts, briefly move
the lever to SET/COAST. Each time you do this,
you will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.

Clock
Your vehicle has a digital clock located in the center of
the instrument panel. When the ignition is turned to
ACC or ON, the time is displayed in the digital clock.
There are three adjusting buttons for the digital clock:
H (Hour):To go forward one hour, press the H button
once. To go forward more than one hour, press and hold
the button until the correct hour is reached.M (Minute):To go forward one minute, press the
M button once. To go forward more than one minute,
press and hold the button until the correct minute
is reached.
S (Set):To reset the time to the nearest hour, press
the S button.
For example, if the set button is pressed while the time
is between 8:00 and 8:29, the display is set to 8:00.
If this button is pressed while the time is between 8:30
and 8:59, the display is set to 9:00.
After disconnecting the battery or replacing the fuse,
reset the clock.

Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both
miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
Your odometer shows how far your vehicle has
been driven in kilometers.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer can record the number of kilometers
traveled for up to two trips.
The trip odometer buttons
are located to the right
of the steering wheel
above the ignition switch.
You can cycle between the odometer and trip
odometers A and B by pressing the MODE button.
By pressing this button, you can tell how many
kilometers have been recorded on either Trip A or
Trip B since you last set the odometer back to zero.Press the RESET button until zeros appear to reset
each trip odometer. The RESET button resets only
the trip odometer that is being displayed. Each
trip odometer must be reset individually.
Tachometer
The tachometer
displays your engine
speed in revolutions
per minute (rpm).

Anti-Lock Brake System
Warning Light
If your vehicle has an
anti-lock brake system,
this light will come on
when the ignition is
turned to ON and may
stay on for several
seconds. That is normal.
If the light stays on, turn the ignition to LOCK. Or,
if the light comes on, stop as soon as possible and turn
the ignition off. Then start the engine again to reset
the system. If the light still stays on, or comes on again
while you are driving, your vehicle needs service.
See your GM dealer. If the regular brake system warning
light is not on, you still have brakes, but you do not
have anti-lock brakes. If the regular brake system
warning light is also on, you do not have anti-lock brakes
and there is a problem with your regular brakes. See
Brake System Warning Light on page 3-36.
The anti-lock brake system warning light will come on
briefly when you turn the ignition to ON. This is normal.
If the light does not come on then, have it fixed so it
will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
Speed Sensitive Power
Steering (SSPS) Warning Light
This warning light will
come on briefly when you
turn the ignition to ON
as a check to show you it
is working.
Then it should go out after a few seconds.
If the warning light does not come on, have it fixed so it
will be able to warn you if there is a problem.
If the warning light stays on, or comes on while you are
driving, the SSPS system may not be working. If this
happens, see your GM dealer for service.

Low Fuel Warning Light
This light comes on when
the fuel tank is low on fuel.
The low fuel warning light comes on when there is
approximately 2.0 gallons (7.5 liters) of fuel remaining
in the tank.
To turn the light off, add fuel to the fuel tank.
SeeFilling the Tank on page 5-8.
Audio System(s)
Determine which radio your vehicle has and then read
the pages following to familiarize yourself with its
features.
Driving without distraction is a necessity for a safer
driving experience. SeeDefensive Driving on page 4-2.
By taking a few moments to read this manual and
get familiar with your vehicle’s audio system, you can
use it with less effort, as well as take advantage of
its features. While your vehicle is parked, set up your
audio system by presetting your favorite radio stations,
setting the tone and adjusting the speakers. Then,
when driving conditions permit, you can tune to your
favorite stations using the presets and steering
wheel controls (if equipped).

This system provides you with a far greater
access to audio stations and song listings.
Giving extended attention to entertainment
tasks while driving can cause a crash and you
or others can be injured or killed. Always keep
your eyes on the road and your mind on the
drive — avoid engaging in extended searching
while driving.
Keeping your mind on the drive is important for safe
driving. For more information, seeDefensive Driving
on page 4-2.
Here are some ways in which you can help avoid
distraction while driving.While your vehicle is parked:
•Familiarize yourself with all of its controls.
•Familiarize yourself with its operation.
•Set up your audio system by presetting your
favorite radio stations, setting the tone, and
adjusting the speakers. Then, when driving
conditions permit, you can tune to your favorite
radio stations using the presets and steering
wheel controls (if equipped).
Notice:Before adding any sound equipment to
your vehicle, such as an audio system, CD player,
CB radio, mobile telephone, or two-way radio, make
sure that it can be added by checking with your
dealer. Also, check federal rules covering mobile
radio and telephone units. If sound equipment can
be added, it is very important to do it properly.
Added sound equipment may interfere with
the operation of your vehicle’s engine, radio, or
other systems, and even damage them. Your
vehicle’s systems may interfere with the operation
of sound equipment that has been added.
