2007 HUMMER H3 Clock

If your engine has stopped running, you will
need to restart it. With the brake pedal
pressed, apply the parking brake. If you
have an automatic transmission, shift the
transmission to PARK (P). Restart the engine.
Then, shift to REVERSE (R), release the
parking brake, and slowly back down the hill
as straight as possible in REVERSE (R).
As you are backing down the hill, put your
left hand on the steering wheel at the
12 o’clock position. This way, you will be
able to tell if your wheels are straight
and maneuver as you back down. It is
best that you back down the hill with your
wheels straight rather than in the left or
right direction. Turning the wheel too far
to the left or right will increase the possibility
of a rollover.Here are some things youmust notdo if you stall,
or are about to stall, when going up a hill:
Never attempt to prevent a stall by shifting
into NEUTRAL (N) to rev-up the engine
and regain forward momentum. This will
not work. Your vehicle will roll backwards very
quickly and you could go out of control.
Instead, apply the regular brake to stop the
vehicle. Then apply the parking brake. Shift to
REVERSE (R), release the parking brake,
and slowly back straight down.
Never attempt to turn around if you are
about to stall when going up a hill. If the hill
is steep enough to stall your vehicle, it is steep
enough to cause you to roll over if you turn
around. If you cannot make it up the hill,
you must back straight down the hill.

The fuel cap is located on the driver’s side of
the vehicle.
Some vehicles might have a fuel door. Open the
door to access the fuel cap.
Some vehicles might have a locking fuel cap.
Use the fuel cap key to unlock the fuel cap.
If you ever need a replacement key, your dealer
can help you get one.
To remove the fuel cap, turn it slowly
counterclockwise. While refueling, let the
fuel cap hang by the tether, if it has one.
{CAUTION:
If you spill fuel and then something
ignites it, you could be badly burned.
Fuel can spray out on you if you open
the fuel cap too quickly. This spray can
happen if your tank is nearly full, and is
more likely in hot weather. Open the fuel
cap slowly and wait for any hiss noise to
stop. Then unscrew the cap all the way.
Be careful not to spill fuel. Do not top off or overll
the tank and wait a few seconds after you have
nished pumping before removing the nozzle.
Clean fuel from painted surfaces as soon as
possible. SeeWashing Your Vehicle on page 410.
When replacing the fuel cap, turn it clockwise until
it clicks. Make sure the cap is fully installed. The
diagnostic system can determine if the fuel cap
has been left off or improperly installed. This would
allow fuel to evaporate into the atmosphere.
SeeMalfunction Indicator Lamp on page 186.

{CAUTION:
Steam and scalding liquids from a hot
cooling system can blow out and burn
you badly. They are under pressure, and if
you turn the radiator pressure cap — even
a little — they can come out at high
speed. Never turn the cap when the
cooling system, including the radiator
pressure cap, is hot. Wait for the cooling
system and radiator pressure cap to cool
if you ever have to turn the pressure cap.
How to Add Coolant to the Radiator
1. Remove the radiator pressure cap when the
cooling system, including the upper radiator
hose, is no longer hot. Turn the pressure cap
slowly counterclockwise about one full turn.
If you hear a hiss, wait for that to stop. A hiss
means there is still some pressure left.
2. Keep turning the cap to remove it.

8. Turn the vertical aiming screw until the
headlamp beam is aimed to the horizontal
tape line. If you turn it clockwise, it will raise
the beam and if you turn it counterclockwise, it
will lower the beam.
The top edge of the cut-off should be positioned
at the bottom edge of the horizontal tape line.
9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 for the opposite
headlamp.
