9-18 Driving and Operating
Ignition Positions
The vehicle has an electronic
keyless ignition with pushbutton
start.
Pressing the button cycles it through
three modes, ACC/ACCESSORY,
ON/RUN/START and STOPPING
THE ENGINE/OFF.
If the pushbutton start is not
working, the vehicle may be near a
strong radio antenna signal causing
interference to the keyless entrysystem. See
Driver Information
Center (DIC) on page 5‑28 for more
information.
To shift out of P (Park), the vehicle
must be in ACC/ACCESSORY or
ON/RUN mode and the brake pedal
must be applied.
STOPPING THE ENGINE/OFF
(No LED Lights): When the
vehicle is stopped, press the engine
START/STOP button once to turn
the engine off.
If the vehicle is in P (Park), the
ignition will turn off, and Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) will remain
active. See Retained Accessory
Power (RAP) on page 9‑22 for
more information.
If the vehicle is not in P (Park),
the ignition will return to ACC/
ACCESSORY and display the
message SHIFT TO PARK in the
Driver Information Center (DIC). See
Driver Information Center (DIC)
on page 5‑28 for more information.
When the vehicle is shifted into
P (Park), the ignition system will
switch to OFF.
Do not turn the engine off when the
vehicle is moving. This will cause a
loss of power assist in the brake
and steering systems and disable
the airbags.
If the vehicle must be shut off in an
emergency:
1. Brake using a firm and steady pressure. Do not pump the
brakes repeatedly. This may
deplete power assist, requiring
increased brake pedal force.
2. Shift the vehicle to N (Neutral). This can be done while the
vehicle is moving. After shifting
to N (Neutral), firmly apply the
brakes and steer the vehicle to a
safe location.

Driving and Operating 9-41
beeps from the rear speakers are
for objects detected near the rear
bumper. The interval between the
beeps becomes shorter as the
vehicle gets closer to the obstacle.
When the distance is less than
30 cm (12 in) the beeping is a
continuous tone for five seconds.
To be detected, objects must be at
least 25 cm (10 in) off the ground
and below liftgate level. Objects
must also be within 1.2 m (4 ft) in
front of the vehicle and 2.5 m (8 ft)
from the rear bumper. This distance
may be less during warmer or humid
weather.
Front Display
The front display is located in the
instrument panel in the center of the
speedometer and has four bars to
provide distance and system
information.The following describes how the UFRPA front display lights appear as the
vehicle gets closer to a detected object:
Description Metric English
one amber bar 1.2 m 4 ft
two amber bars 1.0 m 40 in
three amber bars 0.6 m 23 in
three amber bars and one red bar 0.3 m 1 ft
Objects Detected by Both the
Front and Rear Sensors
In general, if objects are detected at
the same time near both the front
and rear bumpers while backing up,
the beeps only sound to indicate
that objects are close to the rear
bumper.
However, if an object comes within
0.3 m (1 ft) of the front bumper while
the vehicle is backing up and at the
same time there is another object
further than 0.3 m (1 ft) from the rear
bumper, then the beeps only sound
to indicate the object that is closer
to the front bumper.
Turning the System On and Off
The UFRPA system can be turned
on and off by pressing the park
assist button located next to the
shift lever.
The LED next to the park assist
button lights up when the system is
on and turns off when it has been
disabled.

Service and Maintenance 11-11
Fluids
Proper fluid levels and approved
fluids protect the vehicle’s
systems and components.
SeeRecommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 11‑13 for
GM approved fluids.
.Engine oil and windshield
washer fluid levels should be
checked at every fuel fill.
.Instrument cluster lights may
come on to indicate that fluids
may be low and need to be
filled.
Hoses
Hoses transport fluids and should
be regularly inspected to ensure
that there are no cracks or leaks.
With a multi‐point inspection, your
dealer can inspect the hoses and
advise if replacement is needed. Lamps
Properly working headlamps,
taillamps, and brake lamps are
important to see and be seen on
the road.
.Signs that the headlamps need
attention include dimming, failure
to light, cracking, or damage.
The brake lamps need to be
checked periodically to ensure
that they light when braking.
.With a multi‐point inspection,
your dealer can check the lamps
and note any concerns.
Shocks and Struts
Shocks and struts help aid in
control for a smoother ride.
.Signs of wear may include
steering wheel vibration,
bounce/sway while braking,
longer stopping distance,
or uneven tire wear.
.As part of the multi‐point
inspection, trained dealer
technicians can visually inspect
the shocks and struts for signs
of leaking, blown seals,
or damage, and can advise
when service is needed.
