Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System
SeeRadio Frequency Statement
(US, Can) on page 12-15for
information regarding Part 15 of
the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules and
RSS-210/211 of Industry and
Science Canada.
Changes or modifications to this
system by other than an authorized
service facility could void
authorization to use this equipment.
If there is a decrease in the RKE
operating range, try this:
•Check the distance. The
transmitter may be too far from
the vehicle. Stand closer
during rainy or snowy weather.
•Check the location. Other
vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal. Take a
few steps to the left or right,
hold the transmitter higher, and
try again.
•Check the transmitter’s battery.
See “Battery Replacement”
later in this section.
•If the transmitter is still not
working correctly, see your
dealer/retailer or a qualified
technician for service.
Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System Operation
If available, the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter will work
up to 65 feet (20 m) away from
the vehicle.
Other conditions can affect the
performance of the transmitter.

OnStar Virtual Advisor
OnStar Virtual Advisor is a feature
of OnStar Hands-Free Calling
that uses minutes to access
location-based weather, local traffic
reports, and stock quotes. Press
the phone button and give a
few simple voice commands to
browse through the various topics.
See the OnStar Owner’s Guide
for more information. This feature is
only available in the continental U.S.
OnStar Steering Wheel
Controls
This vehicle may have a Talk/Mute
button that can be used to interact
with OnStar Hands-Free Calling.
SeeSteering Wheel Controls on
page 4-6for more information.
On some vehicles, the mute button
can be used to dial numbers into
voice mail systems, or to dial phone
extensions. See the OnStar Owner’s
Guide for more information.
How OnStar Service Works
The OnStar system can record
and transmit vehicle information.
This information is automatically
sent to an OnStar Call Center when
the OnStar button is pressed, the
emergency button is pressed,
or if the airbags or AACN system
deploy. This information usually
includes the vehicle’s GPS location
and, in the event of a crash,
additional information regarding
the crash that the vehicle was
involved in (e.g. the direction from
which the vehicle was hit). When the
Virtual Advisor feature of OnStar
Hands-Free Calling is used,
the vehicle also sends OnStar the
vehicle’s GPS location so they
can provide services where
it is located.
OnStar service cannot work unless
the vehicle is in a place where
OnStar has an agreement with a
wireless service provider for servicein that area. OnStar service also
cannot work unless the vehicle is in
a place where the wireless service
provider OnStar has hired for that
area has coverage, network capacity
and reception when the service is
needed, and technology that is
compatible with the OnStar service.
Not all services are available
everywhere, particularly in remote
or enclosed areas, or at all times.
Location information about the
vehicle is only available if the GPS
satellite signals are unobstructed
and available.
The vehicle must have a working
electrical system, including adequate
battery power, for the OnStar
equipment to operate. There are
other problems OnStar cannot
control that may prevent OnStar
from providing OnStar service at
any particular time or place.

What to Add
Use only new DOT 3 brake
fluid from a sealed container.
SeeRecommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 10-7.
Always clean the brake/clutch
fluid reservoir cap and the area
around the cap before removing it.
This helps keep dirt from entering
the reservoir.
{WARNING
With the wrong kind of fluid in the
brake/clutch hydraulic system,
the brakes might not work well.
This could cause a crash. Always
use the proper brake/clutch fluid.Notice:
Using the wrong uid can
badly damage brake/clutch
hydraulic system parts.
For example, just a few drops
of mineral-based oil, such
as engine oil, in the brake
hydraulic system can damage
brake hydraulic system parts so
badly that they will have to be
replaced. Do not let someone
put in the wrong kind of uid.
If brake uid is spilled on the
vehicle’s painted surfaces, the
paint nish can be damaged.
Be careful not to spill brake
uid on the vehicle. If you do,
wash it off immediately.
Battery
This vehicle has a maintenance
free battery. When it is time for a
new battery, see your dealer/retailer
for one that has the replacement
number shown on the original
battery’s label. SeeEngine
Compartment Overview on
page 9-6for battery location.
{WARNING
Battery posts, terminals, and
related accessories contain lead
and lead compounds, chemicals
known to the State of California
to cause cancer and reproductive
harm. Wash hands after handling.
