StabiliTrak®
Electronic stability control system
assists with directional control of the
vehicle in difficult driving conditions.
The system turns on automatically
every time the vehicle is started.
.To turn off both traction
control and electronic
stability control, press and
hold
duntildilluminates
and the appropriate DIC
message is displayed.
See Vehicle Messages
on
page 5‑21.
.Press the button again to
turn on both systems.
For more information, see
StabiliTrak System on page 9‑53.
Tire Pressure Monitor
This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).
The Tire Pressure Monitor System
alerts you when a significant
reduction in pressure occurs in
one or more of your vehicle’s tires
by illuminating the low tire pressure
warning light on the instrument
cluster. If the warning light comes
on, stop as soon as possible and
inflate the tires to the recommended
pressure shown on the tire loading
information label located on the
driver side center pillar (B pillar).
See Vehicle Load Limits
on
page 9‑27. The warning light will
remain on until the tire pressure is
corrected. You may notice during cooler
conditions that the low tire pressure
warning light will appear when the
vehicle is first started and then
turn off as you drive. This may be
an early indicator that your tire
pressures are getting low and the
tires need to be inflated to the
proper pressure.
The Tire Pressure Monitor System
can alert you about low tire
pressure, but it does not replace
normal monthly tire maintenance.
It is the driver
’s responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressures.
See Tire Pressure Monitor System
on page 10‑52andTire Pressure
Monitor Operation on page 10‑53.

Keys, Doors and Windows 2-9
To open the swing‐gate, use the
door handle to pull the swing-gate
rearward slightly so it opens
automatically.
Vehicle Security
Vehicle theft is big business,
especially in some cities. This
vehicle has theft-deterrent features,
however, they do not make it
impossible to steal.
Anti-Theft Alarm System
This vehicle has a content
theft-deterrent alarm system.
The security light is located on the
instrument panel cluster.
To arm the system:
1. Close all the doors.
2. Lock the doors with the RemoteKeyless Entry (RKE) transmitter.
The security light flashes. If the lock button on the RKE
transmitter is pressed, but a door is
open, the doors lock, the lights may
flash and the horn may sound.
Close the open door to arm the
system.
The alarm goes off if a locked door
is not opened using the RKE
transmitter, or by OnStar
®.
A pre-alarm sounds the horn at
reduced intensity for 10 seconds.
Then, the front turn signal lamps
flash for two minutes, and the horn
sounds for two minutes. The alarm
then turns off to save battery power.
Start the engine to turn off the
alarm.
The theft-deterrent system does
not activate if the doors are locked
with the key, the manual door lock,
or power door lock switch. The
system can only be activated using
the RKE transmitter, or by OnStar.
See the OnStar Owner's Guide for
additional information. The vehicle
can be started with the correct key if
the alarm has been set off.

Seats and Restraints 3-29
{WARNING
Children who are up against,
or very close to, any airbag
when it inflates can be seriously
injured or killed. Airbags plus
lap-shoulder belts offer protection
for adults and older children, but
not for young children and infants.
Neither the vehicle's safety belt
system nor its airbag system
is designed for them. Young
children and infants need the
protection that a child restraint
system can provide. Always
secure children properly in your
vehicle. To read how, seeOlder
Children
on page 3‑42or Infants
and Young Children
on
page 3‑44
.
There is an airbag readiness light
on the instrument panel cluster,
which shows the airbag symbol.
The system checks the airbag
electrical system for malfunctions.
The light tells you if there is an
electrical problem. See Airbag
Readiness Light
on page 5‑10for
more information.
Where Are the Airbags?
The driver frontal airbag is in the
middle of the steering wheel.
