If the battery has run down,
try to use another vehicle and
some jumper cables to start
your vehicle. Be sure to use
the following steps to do it
safely.
{Warning
WARNING: Battery posts,
terminals and related
accessories can expose you
to chemicals including lead
and lead compounds, which
are known to the State of
California to cause cancer
and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Wash
hands after handling. For
more information go to
www.P65Warnings.ca.gov. See California Proposition
65 Warning
01.
{Warning
Batteries can hurt you. They
can be dangerous because:
.They contain acid that can
burn you.
.They contain gas that can
explode or ignite.
.They contain enough
electricity to burn you.
If you do not follow these
steps exactly, some or all of
these things can hurt you.
Caution
Ignoring these steps could
result in costly damage to
the vehicle that would not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Trying to start the
vehicle by pushing or pulling
it will not work, and it could
damage the vehicle.
Caution
If the jumper cables are
connected or removed in the
wrong order, electrical
shorting may occur and
damage the vehicle. The
repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle
warranty. Always connect
and remove the jumper
cables in the correct order,
making sure that the cables
do not touch each other or
other metal.

even when the engine is not
running and can injure you.
Keep hands, clothing, and
tools away from any
underhood electric fan.

the negative (–) cable does
not go to the dead battery.
It goes to a heavy,
unpainted metal
engine part.

with a soft cloth
dampened with a mild
soap and water solution.
Interior Glass
To clean, use a microfiber
cloth fabric dampened with
water. Wipe droplets left
behind with a clean dry cloth.
If necessary, use a commercial
glass cleaner after cleaning
with plain water.
Caution
To prevent scratching, never
use abrasive cleaners on
automotive glass. Abrasive
cleaners or aggressive
cleaning may damage the
rear window defogger.
Cleaning the windshield with
water during the first three to
six months of ownership will
reduce tendency to fog.
Speaker Covers
Vacuum around a speaker
cover gently, so that the
speaker will not be damaged.
Clean spots with water and
mild soap.
Coated Moldings
Coated moldings should be
cleaned.
.When lightly soiled, wipe
with a sponge or soft,
lint-free cloth dampened
with water.
.When heavily soiled, use
warm soapy water.
Vinyl/Rubber
If equipped with vinyl floor and
rubber floor mats, use a soft
cloth and/or brush dampened
with water to remove dust and
loose dirt. For more thorough
cleaning, use a mild soap and
water solution.
{Warning
Do not use cleaners that
contain silicone, wax-based
products, or cleaners that
increase gloss on vinyl/
rubber floor and mats.
These cleaners can
permanently change the
appearance and feel of the
vinyl/rubber and can make
the floor slippery. Your foot
could slip while operating
the vehicle, and you could
lose control, resulting in a
crash. You or others could
be injured.
Fabric/Carpet/Suede
Start by vacuuming the
surface using a soft brush
attachment. If a rotating
vacuum brush attachment is
being used, only use it on the
floor carpet. Before cleaning,
gently remove as much of the
soil as possible:

able to provide adequate
protection. Clean and rinse
seat belt webbing only with
mild soap and lukewarm
water. Allow the webbing
to dry.
Floor Mats
{Warning
If a floor mat is the wrong
size or is not properly
installed, it can interfere
with the pedals. Interference
with the pedals can cause
unintended acceleration

distance which can cause a
crash and injury. Make sure
the floor mat does not
interfere with the pedals.Use the following guidelines
for proper floor mat use.
.The original equipment floor
mats are designed for your
vehicle. If the floor mats
need to be replaced, it is
recommended that
GM-certified floor mats are
purchased. Non-GM floor
mats may not fit properly
and may interfere with the
pedals. Always check that
the floor mats do not
interfere with the pedals.
.Do not use a floor mat if the
vehicle is not equipped with
a floor mat retainer on the
driver side floor.
.Use the floor mat with the
correct side up. Do not turn
it over.
.Do not place anything on top
of the driver side floor mat.
.Use only a single floor mat
on the driver side.
.Do not place one floor mat
on top of another.
The floor mats are held in
place by button-type retainers.
Removing and Replacing
the Floor Mats
1. Pull up on the rear of the floor mat to unlock the
retainers and remove.
2. Reinstall by lining up the floor mat retainer openings
over the carpet retainers
and snap into position.
3. Make sure the floor mat is properly secured in place.
Verify the floor mat does
not interfere with the
pedals.
