{Warning
Be sure to check the wheel studs,
wheel nuts and disc wheel for any
abnormality whenever the disc
wheel is removed.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
If you find any abnormal condition
on the wheel studs, wheel nuts or
disc wheel, do not continue to use
the wheel. Contact the nearest
dealer as soon as possible
Tires at different locations wear
differently. For uniform tire wear and
longer tire life, you should rotate the
tires on your vehicle regularly. Make
sure to use tires of the same type on the same axle. If you install tires
of different types on the same axle,
the vehicle may drift right or left
when you apply the brakes.
New tires are more likely to build up
heat and wear faster than old tires,
so they should be installed on the
front axle where the load is smaller.
If there is a difference in diameter
between the inner and outer tires of
a dual-tire wheel, install the smaller
diameter tire inside.

{Warning
If you find any abnormal
conditions with the wheel nuts
such as frequent loosening of
retightened nuts, have your
vehicle checked or serviced at the
nearest dealer as soon as
possible.
Fully engage the wheel wrench on a
wheel nut in order to tighten the nut
to the specified torque. However, do
not use a pipe as a handle
extension or your foot to apply force
on the wrench. This would tighten
the nut more than required and
might damage components.
Both under-tightening and
over-tightening of wheel nuts may
cause broken wheel studs or
cracked disc wheels and could lead
to wheel detachment. Adhere to the
specified tightening torques.
When replacing a tire with a new
one, use only a tire of the same
type and size as the replaced tire;
otherwise, driving safety could be affected. Avoid mixed use of
different types or different size tires
at all costs.
If a Tire Goes Flat
When the tire goes flat while driving,
ease off the accelerator pedal, avoid
hard braking, hold on to the steering
wheel firmly, and stop the vehicle.
The tire should be changed in a
safe, open location to prevent
obstructing other vehicles or
pedestrians.
{Warning
If you continue to drive on a flat
tire, undue force will be applied to
the wheel studs, possibly causing
the studs to break and the wheel
to come off. You and others could
be seriously injured.

Recommendations” underWheels

cleaning products contain these
compounds. Be sure to read
cleaning product labels carefully.
Air fresheners (liquid, solid, gel or
plate types) must not come into
direct contact with, or spill onto,
interior components such as the air
conditioning or audio system.
Compounds contained in these
products can cause discoloration,
staining or peeling of paint.
Glass cleaners that contain these
compounds must not be used to
clean the inside of the windshield or
window glass. To clean the glass,
wipe it using a cloth wet with warm
or cold water.
To avoid possible permanent
discoloration of light colored seats,
Do not let materials with non-fast
colors come into contact with seat
trim materials until these materials
are totally dry. This includes certain
types of casual clothing, such as
colored denims, corduroys, leathers
and suedes; also decorative paper,
With the use of modern trim
materials, it is very important that
you use proper cleaning techniquesand cleaners. Failing to do this on
the first cleaning may result in water
spots, spot rings or setting of stains
or soilage - all of which are more
difficult to remove in a second
cleaning.
Dust and loose dirt that collect on
interior fabric should be removed
often with a vacuum cleaner or soft
bristle brush. Wipe vinyl or leather
trim regularly with a clean, damp
cloth. Normal trim soils, spots or
stains can be cleaned with these
cleaners.
Remember these basic steps before
cleaning:
.
Remove stains as quickly as
possible before they
become "set".
. Use a clean cloth or sponge,
and change to a clean area
often. A soft brush maybe used
if stains persist.
. Use solvent-type cleaners only
in a well ventilated area: also, do
not saturate the stained area. .
If a ring forms after spot
cleaning, clean the entire area
immediately.
. Follow specific instructions on
cleaner labels.
General Cleaning of Soiled or
Water Spotted Fabric Type
Trim with Foam Type Cleaner
Vacuum the area thoroughly to
remove any loose dirt.
Always clean a whole trim panel or
section. Mask surrounding trim
along stitch or welt lines.
Use suds on a clean sponge. Do
not brush wet suede. Do not
saturate the material or rub it
harshly. Immediately after cleaning,
remove suds with a sponge and
rinse with a clean wet sponge. Wipe
off remaining residue with a slightly
damp absorbent towel or cloth.
Important —Immediately after
wiping, force-dry the fabric with an
air hose. A heat dryer or heat lamp
may be used. Use caution with a
heat dryer or lamp to help prevent
damage.

Vehicle Care 301
When trim materials with a sheen or
luster finish are dry, wipe the fabric
lightly with a soft, dry, clean cloth to
restore its sheen or luster. For
suede, raise nap with dry scrub
brush and vacuum to remove any
final traces of residue.
Spot Cleaning Fabric Type
Trim with Solvent Type Cleaner
Before trying to remove a spot or
stain from fabric, try to find out the
type and age of the spot or stain.
Some spots or stains can be
removed with water or a mild soap
solution. Spots or stains should
always be removed as soon as
possible.
Some types of stains or soilage,
such as lipstick, inks and grease,
are very difficult (sometimes
impossible) to remove completely.
When cleaning this type of stain or
soilage, be sure not to enlarge the
soiled area.
.Gently scrape excess stain from
the trim material with a clean,
dull knife or scraper. Use very
little cleaner, light pressure, and
clean cloths (preferably cheesecloth). Cleaning should
start at the outside of the stain
"feathering" towards the center.
Keep changing to a clean
section of cloth.
. When you clean a stain from
fabric, immediately dry the area
with an air hose, heat dryer,
or heat lamp to help prevent a
cleaning ring. (Use caution with
heat dryer or lamp to help
prevent fabric damage.)
. If a ring forms, immediately
repeat the cleaning operation
over a slightly larger area with
emphasis on "feathering"
towards its center. If a ring still
remains, mask off surrounding
trim sections and clean the
entire soiled area with foam type
cleaner.
See “Removal of Specific
Stains.”
Removal of Specific Stains
Greasy or Oily Stains –Includes
grease, oil, butter, margarine, shoe
polish, coffee with cream, chewing
gum, cosmetic creams, vegetable
oils, wax crayon, tar and asphalts.
. Carefully scrape off excess
stain; then use solvent type
cleaner.
. Shoe polish, wax crayons, tar
and asphalts will stain if left on
trim; they should be removed as
soon as possible. Use care as
cleaner will dissolve them and
may cause them to "bleed".
Non-Greasy Stains –Includes
catsup, coffee (black), egg, fruit,
fruit juice, milk, soft drinks, wine,
vomit and blood.
. Carefully scrape off excess
stain; then sponge the stain with
cool water.
. If a stain remains, use
Multi-Purpose Powdered
Cleaner (Foam type) as
previously described.

Scheduling Service
Appointments
When the vehicle requires warranty
service, contact your dealer and
request an appointment. By
scheduling a service appointment
and advising the service consultant
of your transportation needs, your
dealer can help minimize your
inconvenience.
If the vehicle cannot be scheduled
into the service department
immediately, keep driving it until it
can be scheduled for service,
unless, of course, the problem is
safety related. If it is, please call
your dealership, let them know this,
and ask for instructions. If your dealer requests you to bring
the vehicle for service, you are
urged to do so as early in the work
day as possible to allow for
same-day repair.
Collision Damage Repair
If the vehicle is involved in a
collision and it is damaged, have the
damage repaired by a qualified
technician using the proper
equipment and quality replacement
parts. Poorly performed collision
repairs diminish the vehicle resale
value, and safety performance can
be compromised in subsequent
collisions.
Collision Parts
Genuine GM Collision parts are new
parts made with the same materials
and construction methods as the
parts with which the vehicle was
originally built. Genuine GM
Collision parts are the best choice to
ensure that the vehicle's designed
appearance, durability, and safety
are preserved. The use of Genuine
GM parts can help maintain the GM
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
