Check Warning Lights with OnStar
(if equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with OnStar
and your Check Engine light or any
other warning message appears, you
can press the OnStar button and speak
to an OnStar Advisor. In many vehicles,
OnStar Advisors can access certain
diagnostic information and tell you how
serious the problem is and what you
should do about it.

SAFETY & SECURITY
Safety Belts
The safety belt shoulder straps feature
a park stitch (A) to prevent the safety
belt latch plate from contacting the
interior trim panel when the safety belt is
not in use. If you notice the latch plate
contacting the trim panel, make sure the
safety belt latch plate is located above
the park stitch in the belt.
A
Child Comfort Guide (Extended
Cabs and Crew Cabs only)
This feature provides added safety belt
comfort for smaller adults and for older
children who have outgrown booster
seats. When installed on a shoulder belt,
the comfort guide better positions the
belt away from the neck and head. One
comfort guide is provided for each rear
seat outboard position.
Safety Belt Reminder
When the ignition key is turned to On
or Start, a chime sounds for several
seconds to remind passengers to
buckle their safety belts. The safety belt
reminder light also illuminates and then
flashes for several seconds.
If the driver’s safety belt remains
unbuckled while the vehicle is in motion,
the chime will continue to sound and the
light will continue to flash.
See Sections 1 and 3 of your Owner Manual.
