How the System Works
The instrument cluster may
have a Park Assist display with
bars that show“distance to
object,” driving direction, and
object location information for
the Park Assist system. As the
object gets closer, more bars
light up and the bars change
color from yellow to amber
to red.
Beeps sound to warn the
driver of certain objects that
are detected around the
vehicle. The frequency of
beeps increases as the vehicle
gets closer to the object.
When the object is very close
to the vehicle, the beeps are
continuous. Beeps for the
front are higher pitched than
beeps for the rear. If equipped
with Safety Alert seat, both
sides of the seat will pulse
alongside the beeps. When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The following messages may
be displayed on the DIC:
SERVICE PARKING ASSIST :
If this message occurs, check
the following conditions:
.The sensors are not clean.
Keep the vehicle's rear
bumper free of mud, dirt,
snow, ice, and slush. For
cleaning instructions, see
Exterior Care
0455.
.The Park Assist sensors are
covered by frost or ice.
Frost or ice can form around
and behind the sensors and
may not always be seen; this
can occur after washing the
vehicle in cold weather. The
message may not clear until
the frost or ice has melted.
If the above conditions do not
exist, take the vehicle to your
dealer to repair the system. PARK ASSIST OFF :
If the PA
system does not activate due
to a temporary condition, the
appropriate message displays
on the DIC. PA OFF message
is displayed when disabled by
the driver. Front/Rear PA OFF
message is displayed when an
attached object is detected in
the front or rear respectively.
PA Temporarily Unavailable
message is displayed for
system failures. This can occur
under the following conditions:.The driver has disabled the
system.
.An object was hanging out
of the trunk during the last
drive cycle. Once the object
is removed, RPA will return
to normal operation.
.The bumper is damaged.
Take the vehicle to your
dealer to repair the system.
.Other conditions, such as
vibrations from a
jackhammer or the
compression of air brakes on

366 Driving and Operating
Trailer Brakes
Loaded trailers over 450 kg
(1,000 lb) must be equipped
with brake systems and with
brakes for each axle. Trailer
braking equipment conforming
to Canadian Standards
Association (CSA) requirement
CAN3-D313, or its equivalent,
is recommended.
State or local regulations may
require trailers to have their
own braking system if the
loaded weight of the trailer
exceeds certain minimums
that can vary from state to
state. Read and follow the
instructions for the trailer
brakes so they are installed,
adjusted, and maintained
properly. Never attempt to tap
into your vehicle's hydraulic
brake system. If you do, both
the vehicle anti-lock brakes
and the trailer brakes may not
function, which could result in
a crash.
Trailer Lamps
Always check all trailer lamps
are working at the beginning
of each trip, and periodically
on longer trips.
Turn Signals When
Towing a Trailer
When properly connected, the
trailer turn signals will
illuminate to indicate the
vehicle is turning, changing
lanes, or stopping. When
towing a trailer, the arrows on
the instrument cluster will
illuminate even if the trailer is
not properly connected or the
bulbs are burned out.

Add-Ons
Add-On Electrical
Equipment
{Warning
The Data Link Connector
(DLC) is used for vehicle
service and Emission
Inspection/Maintenance
testing. See Malfunction
Indicator Lamp (Check
Engine Light)0118. A device
connected to the DLC —
such as an aftermarket fleet
or driver-behavior tracking
device —may interfere with
vehicle systems. This could
affect vehicle operation and
cause a crash. Such devices
may also access information
stored in the vehicle’s
systems.

426 Vehicle Care
transmit the tire pressure
readings to a receiver located
in the vehicle.
When a low tire pressure
condition is detected, the
TPMS illuminates the low tire
pressure warning light located
on the instrument cluster.
If the warning light comes on,
stop as soon as possible and
inflate the tires to the
recommended pressure
shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See
Vehicle Load Limits0255.
A message to check the
pressure in a specific tire
displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The
low tire pressure warning light
and the DIC warning message
come on at each ignition cycle
until the tires are inflated to the correct inflation pressure.
Using the DIC, tire pressure
levels can be viewed. For
additional information and
details about the DIC
operation and displays see
Driver Information Center
(DIC) (Base Level)
0129 or
Driver Information Center
(DIC) (Uplevel) 0132.
The low tire pressure warning
light may come on in cool
weather when the vehicle is
first started, and then turn off
as the vehicle is driven. This
could be an early indicator
that the air pressure is getting
low and needs to be inflated to
the proper pressure.
A Tire and Loading
Information label, attached to
your vehicle, shows the size of
the original equipment tires
and the correct inflation
pressure for the tires when
they are cold. See Vehicle
Load Limits 0255, for an
example of the Tire and Loading Information label and
its location. Also see Tire
Pressure
0422.
The TPMS can warn about a
low tire pressure condition but
it does not replace normal tire
maintenance. See Tire
Inspection 0429, Tire Rotation
0 429, and Tires 0413.Caution
Tire sealant materials are
not all the same.
A non-approved tire sealant
could damage the TPMS
sensors. TPMS sensor
damage caused by using an
incorrect tire sealant is not
covered by the vehicle
warranty. Always use only
the GM approved tire
sealant available through
your dealer or included in
the vehicle.
Factory-installed Tire Inflator
Kits use a GM-approved liquid
tire sealant. Using
non-approved tire sealants

464 Vehicle Care
Instrument Panel, Leather,
Vinyl, Other Plastic
Surfaces, Low Gloss Paint
Surfaces, and Natural
Open Pore Wood
Surfaces
Use a soft bristle brush to
remove dust from knobs and
crevices on the instrument
cluster. Use a soft microfiber
cloth dampened with water to
remove dust and loose dirt.
For a more thorough cleaning,
use a soft microfiber cloth
dampened with a mild soap
and water solution.
Caution
Soaking or saturating
leather, especially
perforated leather, as well
as other interior surfaces,
may cause permanent
damage. Wipe excess
moisture from these
surfaces after cleaning and
allow them to dry naturally.(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
Never use heat, steam,
or spot removers. Do not
use liquids that contain
alcohol or solvents on
leather seats. Do not use
cleaners that contain
silicone or wax-based
products. Cleaners
containing these solvents
can permanently change the
appearance and feel of
leather or soft trim, and are
not recommended.
Do not use cleaners that
increase gloss, especially on
the instrument panel.
Reflected glare can decrease
visibility through the
windshield under certain
conditions.
Caution
Use of air fresheners may
cause permanent damage to
plastics and painted (Continued)
Caution (Continued)
surfaces. If an air freshener
comes in contact with any
plastic or painted surface in
the vehicle, blot immediately
and clean with a soft cloth
dampened with a mild soap
solution. Damage caused by
air fresheners would not be
covered by the vehicle
warranty.
Cargo Cover and
Convenience Net
If equipped, wash with warm
water and mild detergent. Do
not use chlorine bleach. Rinse
with cold water, and then dry
completely.
Care of Seat Belts
Keep belts clean and dry.
