218 Driving and Operating
If the EPB fails to apply, block
the rear wheels to prevent
vehicle movement.
EPB Release
To release the EPB:1. Turn the vehicle on.
2. Apply and hold the brake pedal.
3. Press the EPB switch momentarily.
The EPB is released when the
red parking brake status light
is off.
If the amber service parking
brake warning light is on,
release the EPB by pressing
and holding the EPB switch.
Continue to hold the switch
until the red parking brake
status light is off. If either light
stays on after release is
attempted, see your dealer.
Caution
Driving with the parking
brake on can overheat the
brake system and cause
premature wear or damage
to brake system parts. Make
sure that the parking brake
is fully released and the
brake warning light is off
before driving.
Automatic EPB Release
The EPB will automatically
release if the vehicle is
running, placed into gear, and
an attempt is made to drive
away. Avoid rapid acceleration
when the EPB is applied, to
preserve parking brake
lining life.
Brake Assist
Brake Assist detects rapid
brake pedal applications due
to emergency braking
situations and provides
additional braking to activate
the Antilock Brake System (ABS) if the brake pedal is not
pushed hard enough to
activate ABS normally. Minor
noise, brake pedal pulsation,
and/or pedal movement during
this time may occur. Continue
to apply the brake pedal as
the driving situation dictates.
Brake Assist disengages when
the brake pedal is released.
Hill Start Assist (HSA)
{Warning
Do not rely on the HSA
feature. HSA does not
replace the need to pay
attention and drive safely.
You may not hear or feel
alerts or warnings provided
by this system. Failure to
use proper care when
driving may result in injury,
death, or vehicle damage.
See Defensive Driving
0196.
When the vehicle is stopped
on a grade, Hill Start Assist
(HSA) prevents the vehicle

move the trailer to the right,
move that hand to the right.
Always back up slowly and,
if possible, have someone
guide you.
Making TurnsCaution
Turn more slowly and make
wider arcs when towing a
trailer to prevent damage to
your vehicle. Making very
sharp turns could cause the
trailer to contact the vehicle.
Make wider turns than normal
when towing, so trailer will not
go over soft shoulders, over
curbs, or strike road signs,
trees, or other objects. Always
signal turns well in advance.
Do not steer or brake
suddenly.
Driving on Grades
Reduce speed and maintain
gear before starting down a
long or steep downhill grade.
See Hill and Mountain Roads
0 200.
The vehicle can tow in D
(Drive).
Viewing Systems
If equipped, the viewing
systems on the vehicle can
improve visibility while
hitching, backing up, and
driving with a trailer. See
Driver Assistance Systems
0 255.
Parking on Hills
{Warning
To prevent serious injury or
death, always park your
vehicle and trailer on a level
surface when possible.
When parking your vehicle and
your trailer on a hill: 1. Press and hold the brake
pedal, but do not shift into
P (Park). Turn the wheels
toward the curb if facing
downhill or toward traffic if
facing uphill.
2. Have someone place chocks under the trailer wheels.
3. When the wheel chocks are in place, gradually release
the brake pedal to allow the
chocks to absorb the load
of the trailer.
4. Reapply the brake pedal. Then apply the electric
parking brake and shift into
P (Park).
5. Release the brake pedal.
Leaving After Parking on
a Hill
1. Apply and hold the brake pedal.
.Start the vehicle.
.Shift into a gear.
.Release the parking
brake.
2. Let up on the brake pedal.

316 Vehicle Care
Brake Fluid
The brake master cylinder
reservoir is filled with GM
approved DOT 4 brake fluid as
indicated on the reservoir cap.
See Underhood Compartment
Overview0312 for the
location of the reservoir.
Checking Brake Fluid
With the vehicle in P (Park) on
a level surface, the brake fluid
level should be between the
minimum and maximum marks
on the brake fluid reservoir.
There are only two reasons
why the brake fluid level in the
reservoir may go down:
.Normal brake lining wear.
When new linings are
installed, the fluid level goes
back up.
.A fluid leak in the brake
hydraulic system. Have the
brake hydraulic system fixed.
With a leak, the brakes will
not work well.
Always clean the brake fluid
reservoir cap and the area
around the cap before
removing it.
Do not top off the brake fluid.
Adding fluid does not correct a
leak. If fluid is added when the
linings are worn, there will be
too much fluid when new
brake linings are installed. Add
or remove fluid, as necessary,
only when work is done on the
brake hydraulic system.
When the brake fluid falls to a
low level, the brake warning
light comes on. See Brake
System Warning Light 0115.
Brake fluid absorbs water over
time which degrades the
effectiveness of the brake
fluid. Replace brake fluid at the
specified intervals to prevent increased stopping distance.
See Maintenance Schedule
0
376.
What to Add
Use only GM approved DOT 4
brake fluid from a clean, sealed
container. See Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants 0379.
{Warning
The wrong or contaminated
brake fluid could result in
damage to the brake
system. This could result in
the loss of braking leading to
a possible injury. Always use
the proper GM approved
brake fluid.
Caution
If brake fluid is spilled on the
vehicle's painted surfaces,
the paint finish can be
damaged. Immediately wash
off any painted surface.

Battery - North
America
This vehicle has a high voltage
battery and a standard 12-volt
battery.
See your dealer if either the
12-volt or high voltage battery
needs service.
12–Volt Battery
The original equipment battery
is maintenance free. Do not
remove the cap and do not
add fluid.
Refer to the replacement
number shown on the original
battery label when a new
12-volt battery is needed. The
vehicle has an Absorbent
Glass Mat (AGM) 12-volt
battery. Installation of a
standard 12-volt battery will
result in reduced 12-volt
battery life.
Some 12-volt chargers have an
AGM battery setting. This
setting limits the charge
voltage to 14.8 volts and helpsextend the battery life.
If available, use the AGM
setting when charging the
battery.
{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.
High Voltage Battery
Only a trained service
technician should inspect, test,
or replace the high voltage
battery. The dealer has
information on how to recycle
the high voltage battery. There is also information
available at https://
www.recyclemybattery.com.
{Warning
Damage to the high voltage
battery or high voltage
system can create a risk of
electric shock, overheating,
or fire.
If the vehicle is damaged
from a moderate to severe
crash, flood, fire, or other
event, the vehicle should be
inspected as soon as
possible. Until the vehicle
has been inspected, store it
outside at least 15 m (50 ft)
from any structure or
anything that can burn.
Ventilate the vehicle by
opening a window or a door.

Locks
Locks are lubricated at the
factory. Use a de-icing agent
only when absolutely
necessary, and have the locks
greased after using. See
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants 0379.
Washing the Vehicle
To preserve the vehicle's
finish, wash it often and out of
direct sunlight.
Caution
Do not use
petroleum-based, acidic,
or abrasive cleaning agents
as they can damage the
vehicle's paint, metal,

products can be obtained
from your dealer. Follow all
manufacturer directions
regarding correct product
usage, necessary safety
precautions, and
appropriate disposal of any
vehicle care product.
Caution
