{Warning
If different sized wheels are
used, there may not be an
acceptable level of
performance and safety if
tires not recommended for
those wheels are selected.
This increases the chance of
a crash and serious injury.
Only use GM specific wheel
and tire systems developed
for the vehicle, and have
them properly installed by a
GM certified technician.
See Buying New Tires 0432
and
Accessories and Modifications
0 370.
Uniform Tire Quality
Grading
The following information
relates to the system
developed by the United
States National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
which grades tires by
treadwear, traction, and
temperature performance.
This applies only to
vehicles sold in the United
States. The grades are
molded on the sidewalls of
most passenger car tires.
The Uniform Tire Quality
Grading (UTQG) system
does not apply to deep
tread, winter tires, compact
spare tires, tires with
nominal rim diameters of
10 to 12 inches
(25 to 30 cm), or to some
limited-production tires.
While the tires available on
General Motors passenger
cars and light trucks may
vary with respect to these
grades, they must also
conform to federal safety
requirements and
additional General Motors
Tire Performance Criteria
(TPC) standards.
Quality grades can be
found where applicable on
the tire sidewall between
tread shoulder and
maximum section width.
For example:
Treadwear 200 Traction AA
Temperature A
All Passenger Car Tires
Must Conform to Federal
Safety Requirements In
Addition To These Grades.
Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a
comparative rating based
on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under
controlled conditions on a
specified government test
course. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one
and one-half (1½) times as

balancing are not necessary
on a regular basis. Consider an
alignment check if there is
unusual tire wear or the
vehicle is significantly pulling
to one side or the other. Some
slight pull to the left or right,
depending on the crown of the
road and/or other road
surface variations such as
troughs or ruts, is normal.
If the vehicle is vibrating when
driving on a smooth road, the
tires and wheels may need to
be rebalanced. See your
dealer for proper diagnosis.
Wheel Replacement
Replace any wheel that is
bent, cracked, or badly rusted
or corroded. If wheel nuts
keep coming loose, the wheel,
wheel bolts, and wheel nuts
should be replaced. If the
wheel leaks air, replace it.
Some aluminum wheels can be
repaired. See your dealer if
any of these conditions exist.
Your dealer will know the kind
of wheel that is needed.Each new wheel should have
the same load-carrying
capacity, diameter, width,
offset, and be mounted the
same way as the one it
replaces.
Replace wheels, wheel bolts,
wheel nuts, or Tire Pressure
Monitor System (TPMS)
sensors with new GM original
equipment parts.
{Warning
Using the wrong
replacement wheels, wheel
bolts, or wheel nuts can be
dangerous. It could affect
the braking and handling of
the vehicle. Tires can lose air
and cause loss of control,
resulting in a crash. Always
use the correct wheel, wheel
bolts, and wheel nuts for
replacement.
{Warning
Replacing a wheel with a
used one is dangerous. How
it has been used or how far
it has been driven may be
unknown. It could fail
suddenly and cause a crash.
When replacing wheels, use
a new GM original
equipment wheel.
Caution
The wrong wheel can also
cause problems with bearing
life, brake cooling,
speedometer or odometer
calibration, headlamp aim,
bumper height, vehicle
ground clearance, and tire or
tire chain clearance to the
body and chassis.

4. Turn the ignition off. Turnoff all lights and
accessories in both
vehicles, except the hazard
warning flashers if needed.
{Warning
An electric fan can start up
even when the engine is not
running and can injure you.
Keep hands, clothing, and
tools away from any
underhood electric fan.
{Warning
Using a match near a
battery can cause battery
gas to explode. People have
been hurt doing this, and
some have been blinded.
Use a flashlight if you need
more light.
Battery fluid contains acid
that can burn you. Do not
get it on you. If you
accidentally get it in your

Warning (Continued)
eyes or on your skin, flush
the place with water and get
medical help immediately.
{Warning
Fans or other moving engine
parts can injure you badly.
Keep your hands away from
moving parts once the
engine is running.
5. Connect one end of the red positive (+) cable to the
remote positive (+)
terminal on the discharged
battery.
6. Connect the other end of the red positive (+) cable to
the positive (+) terminal of
the good battery.
7. Connect one end of the black negative (–) cable to
the negative (–) terminal of
the good battery. Do not let the other end
touch anything until the
next step. The other end of
the negative (–) cable does
not go to the dead battery.
It goes to a heavy,
unpainted metal
engine part.
8. Connect the other end of the black negative (–) cable
to the negative (–)
grounding point for the
discharged battery.
9. Start the engine in the vehicle with the good
battery and run the engine
at idle speed for at least
four minutes.
10. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead battery.
If it will not start after a
few tries, it probably needs
service.
Jumper Cable Removal
Reverse the sequence exactly
when removing the jumper
cables.

Caution (Continued)
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:
