Radio Reception
Usually, a problem with radio
reception does not mean there is a
problem with your radio - it is just the normal result of conditions
outside the vehicle. For example,
nearby buildings and terrain can
interfere with FM reception. Power
lines or telephone wires can
interfere with AM signals.
And of course, radio signals have a
limited range. The farther you are
from a station, the weaker its signal
will be. In addition, reception
conditions change constantly as
your vehicle moves.
Here are some common reception
problems that probably do not
indicate a problem with your radio.
FM Transmissions
Fading and drifting stations -
Generally, the effective range of FM
is about 40 km (25 miles). Once
outside this range, you may notice
fading and drifting, which increase
with the distance from the radio
transmitter. They are often
accompanied by distortion.
Multi-path - FM signals are
reflective, making it possible for two
signals to reach your antenna at the
same time. If this happens, the
signals will cancel each other out,
causing a momentary flutter or loss
of reception.
Static and fluttering - These occur
when signals are blocked by
buildings, trees, or other large
objects. Increasing the bass level
may reduce static and fluttering.
Station swapping - If the FM signal
you are listening to is interrupted or
weakened, and there is another
strong station nearby on the FM
band, your radio may tune in the
second station until the original
signal can be picked up again.
AM Transmissions
Fading - AM broadcasts are
reflected by the upper atmosphere -
especially at night. These reflected
signals can interfere with those
received directly from the radio
station, causing the radio station to
sound alternately strong and weak.
Station interference - When a
reflected signal and a signal
received directly from a radio station
are very nearly the same frequency,

After refueling, make sure that the
fuel tank filler cap is tightly closed.
Do not use any fuel tank filler cap
that is not a genuine GM part.
The use of an improper fuel tank
filler cap could cause fuel spillage in
the event of an accident. The use of
an improper fuel tank filler cap could
also affect the fuel system and the
emission control system.
Be sure to wipe off the fuel that is
spilled at refueling.
{Warning
Fuel may be under pressure. Be
sure to slowly open the fuel tank
filler cap. If you open it quickly,
fuel may spurt out. You and
others could be seriously injured.
Caution
Care must be taken when filling
the fuel tank to prevent entry of
dirt and water.

Power Take-Off (PTO)
If equipped, the PTO is a device
that is used to provide engine power
to special equipment directly from
the engine or through the
transmission. For details about the
PTO operation, refer to the separate
instruction manual provided by its
maker.
If the optional PTO function is used
for long periods of time, make sure
to regularly check the diesel
particulate filter (DPF) indicator.
Automatic DPF regeneration will not
take place while the PTO function is
active.
