Automatic Unparking
How to Cancel Automatic Parking
To cancel automatic parking or
automatic unparking at any time,
press
O. Be prepared to resume full
control of the vehicle. APA holds the
vehicle until the parking brake or
brake is applied, or the vehicle is
shifted into P (Park). To start driving
away, press the brakes and shift into
D (Drive).
Certain vehicle conditions and driver
interferences may also cancel
automatic parking:
.The driver manually steers the
vehicle.
.The maximum allowed speed is
exceeded.
.There is a failure with the APA
system.
.Electronic stability control or
antilock brakes are activated.
.The parking brake is applied.
.Driver unbuckles the seat belt and
opens the door.
System Limitations
Automatic Parking Assist has certain
limitations. The system cannot:
.Continue to operate if the maneuver
speed exceeds 5 km/h (3 mph).
.Detect whether a parking space is
legal or restricted.
.Detect pavement markings or lines.
.Park the vehicle closely lined up
with the vehicle next to it,
particularly if the spot is
approached at an angle or if the
parking space is angled.
.Park exactly centered in a very
large spot.
.Always detect short curbs.
.Operate while towing any trailer.
.Function the vehicle is raised or
lowered by air suspension,if
equipped. When the System Does Not Seem to
Work Properly
If the vehicle does not reverse into the
expected parking space, the system
could be maneuvering the vehicle into
a previously detected space.
Reverse Automatic
Braking (RAB)
Backing Warning and Reverse
Automatic Braking (RAB)
Vehicles with Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) have the Backing Warning
System and Reverse Automatic
Braking (RAB) system. When in
R (Reverse), Backing Warning alerts of
rear objects at vehicle speeds greater
than 8 km/h (5 mph), and RAB may
automatically brake hard at speeds
between 1–32 km/h (0.5–20 mph).
The Backing Warning System will
beep once from the rear when an
object is first detected, or pulse twice
on both sides of the Safety Alert Seat.
When the system detects a potential
crash, beeps will be heard from the
rear, or five pulses will be felt on both

optimally.
Filling the Tank
An arrow on the fuel gauge indicates
which side of the vehicle the fuel door
is on. SeeFuel Gauge 0107.
{Warning
Fuel vapors and fuel fires burn
violently and can cause injury or
death.
Follow these guidelines to help
avoid injuries to you and others:
.Read and follow all the
instructions on the fuel pump
island.
.Turn off the engine when
refueling.
.Keep sparks, flames, and
smoking materials away
from fuel.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
.Do not leave the fuel pump
unattended.
.Avoid using electronic devices
while refueling.
.Do not re-enter the vehicle while
pumping fuel.
.Keep children away from the fuel
pump and never let children
pump fuel.
.Before touching the fill nozzle,
touch a metallic object to
discharge static electricity from
your body.
.Fuel can spray out if the fill
nozzle is inserted too quickly.
This spray can happen if the
tank is nearly full, and is more
likely in hot weather. Insert the
fill nozzle slowly and wait for any
hiss noise to stop before
beginning to flow fuel.
If equipped, the fuel door unlocks
when the vehicle doors are unlocked.
See Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation 07.
To open the fuel door, push and
release the rearward center edge of
the door.
The capless refueling system does not
have a fuel cap. Fully insert and latch
the fill nozzle, then begin fueling.
{Warning
Overfilling the fuel tank by more
than three clicks of a standard fill
nozzle may cause:
.Vehicle performance issues,
including engine stalling and
damage to the fuel system.
.Fuel spills.

5. Slide the base of the tire sealantcanister (3) into the slot on the top
of the compressor (6) to hold it
upright.
Make sure the tire valve stem is
positioned close to the ground so
the hose will reach it.
6. Remove the valve stem cap from the flat tire by turning it
counterclockwise.
7. Attach the sealant/air hose (2) tothe tire valve stem by turning it
clockwise until tight. 8. Plug the power plug (9) into the
accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. Unplug all items from
other accessory power outlets. See
Power Outlets 0100.
If the vehicle has an accessory
power outlet, do not use the
cigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has a cigarette
lighter, use the cigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plug cord
in the door or window.
9. Start the vehicle. The vehicle must be running while using the air
compressor.
10. Press the on/off button (5) to turn the tire sealant and compressor
kit on.
The compressor will inject sealant
and air into the tire.
The pressure gauge (8) will initially
show a high pressure while the
compressor pushes the sealant into
the tire. Once the sealant is
completely dispersed into the tire,
the pressure will quickly drop and
start to rise again as the tire
inflates with air only. 11. Inflate the tire to the
recommended inflation pressure
using the pressure gauge (8). The
recommended inflation pressure
can be found on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See Tire
Pressure 0337.
The pressure gauge (8) may read
higher than the actual tire pressure
while the compressor is on. Turn
the compressor off to get an
accurate pressure reading. The
compressor may be turned on/off
until the correct pressure is
reached.
Caution
If the recommended pressure
cannot be reached after
approximately 25 minutes, the
vehicle should not be driven farther.
The tire is too severely damaged
and the tire sealant and compressor
kit cannot inflate the tire. Remove
the power plug from the accessory
power outlet and unscrew the
inflating hose from the tire valve.

material on painted surfaces can be
removed by rubbing with a clean
cloth. SeeRecommended Fluids and
Lubricants 0389.
Tires
Use a stiff brush with tire cleaner to
clean the tires.
Caution
Using petroleum-based tire dressing
products on the vehicle may
damage the paint finish and/or
tires. When applying a tire dressing,
always wipe off any overspray from
all painted surfaces on the vehicle.
Wheels and Wheel Trim
Use a soft, clean cloth with mild soap
and water to clean the wheels. After
rinsing thoroughly with clean water,
dry with a soft, clean towel. A wax
may then be applied.
Caution
Chrome wheels and chrome wheel
trim may be damaged if the vehicle

that have been sprayed with
magnesium chloride or calcium
chloride. These are used on roads
for conditions such as dust and ice.
Always wash the chrome with soap
and water after exposure.
Caution
To avoid surface damage on wheels
and wheel trim, do not use strong
soaps, chemicals, abrasive polishes,
cleaners, or brushes. Use only GM
approved cleaners. Do not drive the
vehicle through an automatic car
wash that uses silicon carbide tire/
wheel cleaning brushes. Damage
could occur and the repairs would
not be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
Brake System
Visually inspect brake lines and hoses
for proper hook-up, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotors for surface
condition. Inspect all other brake
parts.
Steering, Suspension, and
Chassis Components
Visually inspect steering, suspension,
and chassis components for damaged,
loose, or missing parts or signs of
wear at least once a year.
Inspect power steering for proper
electrical connections, binding, cracks,
chafing, etc.
Visually check constant velocity joint
boots and axle seals for leaks.
Body Component Lubrication
Lubricate all key lock cylinders, hood
hinges, liftgate hinges, and the steel
fuel door hinges, unless the
components are plastic. Applying
silicone grease on weatherstrips with a
clean cloth will make them last
longer, seal better, and not stick or
squeak.
