266 Driving and Operating
Caution (Continued)
.Check engine oil with
every refueling and add if
necessary. Oil and fuel
consumption may be
higher than normal during
the first
2 414 km (1,500 mi).
.To break in new tires,
drive at moderate speeds
and avoid hard cornering
for the first
322 km (200 mi). New tires
do not have maximum
traction and may tend
to slip.
.New brake linings also
need a break-in period.
Avoid making hard stops
during the first
322 km (200 mi). This is
recommended every time
brake linings are replaced.
.Should the vehicle be used
for racing or competitive
driving (after break-in), the
rear axle lubricant must be
replaced beforehand.See Track Events and
Competitive Driving (V-Series
and V-Series Blackwing)
0246.
On new vehicles, the various
mechanical and electrical
systems experience a
“break-in” period during the
first 6,400 km (4,000 miles) of
routine driving. As the vehicle
is driven, the mechanical
systems adjust to provide
optimal fuel economy and
transmission shift
performance.
Electrical systems will adapt
and calibrate during the
break-in period. A one-time
occurrence of clicks and
similar vehicle noises is normal
during this process.
Normal driving charges the
vehicle’s battery to achieve
the best operation of the
vehicle, including fuel
economy.
Composite Materials
This vehicle may be equipped
with parts containing carbon
fiber, sheet-molding
compound, or other composite
materials. Dealer-installed
accessories may also contain
composite materials.
{Warning
Exposed edges of parts
containing carbon fiber and
other composite materials
can be sharp. Contact with
these parts could result in
injury. Use caution to avoid
contacting these parts,
including when washing the
vehicle. If the parts are
damaged, replace the parts
promptly with replacements
from your dealer.

customer data from
unauthorized outside
electronic access or control is
important to GM. GM

standards, practices,
guidelines and controls aimed
at defending the vehicle and
the vehicle service ecosystem

cybersecurity incidents in a
timely, coordinated and
effective manner. Security
incidents could impact your

Event Data Recorders
This vehicle is equipped with
an Event Data Recorder (EDR).
The main purpose of an EDR isto record, in certain crash or
near crash-like situations, such
as an air bag deployment or
hitting a road obstacle, data
that will assist in
understanding how a vehicle’s
systems performed. The EDR
is designed to record data
related to vehicle dynamics
and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically
30 seconds or less. The EDR in
this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
.How various systems in your
vehicle were operating;
.Whether or not the driver
and passenger safety belts
were buckled/fastened;
.How far (if at all) the driver
was depressing the
accelerator and/or brake
pedal; and,
.How fast the vehicle was
traveling.
These data can help provide a
better understanding of the
circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur.
