2006 CHEVROLET HHR automatic transmission

Delayed Locking
This feature will delay the actual locking of the doors
and liftgate when the power door lock switch or remote
keyless entry transmitter is used to lock the vehicle.
If any door is open when locking the vehicle, three
chimes will sound signaling that the delayed locking
feature is active. Five seconds after the last door
is closed, all of the doors and liftgate will lock. The turn
signal lamps will ash to indicate that the doors have
been locked. To cancel the delay and lock the
doors immediately, press the lock button a second time.
If the key is in the ignition this feature will not lock
the doors.
If your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC),
you can disable this function. SeeDIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 3-45.
Automatic Door Lock
If your vehicle has power door locks, the doors will
automatically lock when the shift lever is moved out of
PARK (P) for a vehicle with an automatic transmission.
For a vehicle with a manual transmission, the speed
must be greater than 5 mph (8 km/h).
The automatic door locking feature cannot be disabled.
Programmable Automatic Door
Unlock
Your vehicle will automatically unlock all doors when the
shift lever is moved into PARK (P) for a vehicle with
an automatic transaxle, and when the ignition is turned
off for a vehicle with a manual transaxle.
If your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC),
the doors can be programmed to automatically
unlock several ways for vehicles with an automatic
transaxle. SeeDIC Vehicle Personalization on
page 3-45for more information.

Tire Size
The following illustration shows an example of a typical
passenger vehicle tire size.
(A) Passenger (P-Metric) Tire:The United States
version of a metric tire sizing system. The letter P as
the rst character in the tire size means a passenger
vehicle tire engineered to standards set by the U.S. Tire
and Rim Association.
(B) Tire Width:The three-digit number indicates the
tire section width in millimeters from sidewall to sidewall.
(C) Aspect Ratio:A two-digit number that indicates
the tire height-to-width measurements. For example,
if the tire size aspect ratio is 60, as shown in item C of
the illustration, it would mean that the tire’s sidewall
is 60 percent as high as it is wide.(D) Construction Code:A letter code is used to
indicate the type of ply construction in the tire. The
letter R means radial ply construction; the letter D means
diagonal or bias ply construction; and the letter B means
belted-bias ply construction.
(E) Rim Diameter:Diameter of the wheel in inches.
(F) Service Description:These characters represent
the load range and speed rating of the tire. The load
index represents the load carry capacity a tire is certied
to carry. The load index can range from 1 to 279. The
speed rating is the maximum speed a tire is certied
to carry a load. Speed ratings range from A to Z.
Tire Terminology and Denitions
Air Pressure:The amount of air inside the tire pressing
outward on each square inch of the tire. Air pressure
is expressed in pounds per square inch (psi) or
kilopascal (kPa).
Accessory Weight:This means the combined weight
of optional accessories. Some examples of optional
accessories are, automatic transmission, power steering,
power brakes, power windows, power seats, and
air conditioning.
Aspect Ratio:The relationship of a tire’s height to
its width.
