Driving
Characteristics and
Towing Tips
{Warning
You can lose control when
towing a trailer if the correct
equipment is not used or the
vehicle is not driven
properly. For example, if the
trailer is too heavy or the
trailer brakes are
inadequate for the load, the
vehicle may not stop as
expected. You and others
could be seriously injured.
The vehicle may also be
damaged, and the repairs
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Pull a
trailer only if all the steps in
this section have been
followed. Ask your dealer for
advice and information
about towing a trailer with
the vehicle.
Driving with a Trailer
Trailering is different than just
driving the vehicle by itself.
Trailering affects handling,
acceleration, braking, and
durability. Successful and safe
trailering requires proper use
of the correct equipment.
The following information has
many time-tested, important
trailering tips and safety rules.
Many of these are important
for your safety and that of
your passengers. Read this
section carefully before
towing a trailer.
When towing a trailer:
.Become familiar with and
follow all state and local laws
that apply to trailer towing.
These requirements vary
from state to state.
.State laws may require the
use of extended side view
mirrors. Even if not required,
you should install extendedside view mirrors if your
visibility is limited or
restricted while towing.
.Do not tow a trailer during
the first 800 km (500 mi) of
vehicle use to prevent
damage to vehicle.
.During the first 800 km
(500 mi) of trailer towing, do
not drive over 80 km/h
(50 mph) and do not make
starts at full throttle.
.Vehicles can tow in D (Drive).
If equipped, the following
driver assistance features
should be turned off when
towing a trailer:
.Park Assist
.Automatic Parking
Assist (APA)
.Reverse Automatic
Braking (RAB)
If equipped, the following
driver assistance features
should be turned to alert or
off when towing a trailer,
unless equipped with Super
Cruise:

facility could void
authorization to use this
equipment.
Vehicle Storage
The best way to store the
vehicle for any length of time
is to plug in the charge cord
and leave it plugged in. The
vehicle monitors and maintains
the 12-volt battery daily. It is
okay to leave the vehicle
plugged in for extended
periods of time. Once charged
to full, very little energy is
required to maintain the
12-volt battery and high
voltage battery.
If it is not possible to charge
the vehicle with the charge
cord left plugged in, be sure to
fully charge the high voltage
battery before storing. The
vehicle will stop maintenance
of the 12-volt battery if the
high voltage battery state of
charge gets too low.When storing the vehicle on a
long-term basis:
‐
Keep the high voltage
battery state of charge
at 30%.
‐ Attach an AGM/VRLA
compatible battery tender or
trickle charger to the 12-volt
battery.
‐ Keep the remote key more
than 3 m (10 ft) away from
the vehicle.
12–volt Battery
{Warning
Batteries have acid that can
burn you and gas that can
explode. You can be badly
hurt if you are not careful.
Always wear eye protection.
See Jump Starting - North
America 0356 for tips on
working around a battery
without getting hurt.
A trickle charger may be
attached to the 12-volt battery
terminals or trickle charge from the underhood remote
positive (+) and negative (–)
terminals. See Jump Starting -
North America
0356 for
location of these terminals.
Caution
The vehicle is equipped with
an AGM/VRLA 12-volt
battery, which can be
damaged by using the
incorrect type of trickle
charger. An AGM/
VRLA-compatible charger
must be used, with the
appropriate setting
selected. Follow the trickle
charger manufacturer
instructions.
With a trickle charger
connected to the 12-volt
battery, the vehicle will still
monitor the 12-volt battery
daily, but it will not use energy
from the high voltage battery
for maintenance.

4. If the fuse must be replacedimmediately, borrow a
replacement fuse with the
same amperage from the
fuse block. Choose a vehicle
feature that is not needed
to safely operate the
vehicle. Repeat Steps 2–3.
5. Insert the replacement fuse into the empty slot of the
blown fuse.
At the next opportunity, see
your dealer to replace the
blown fuse.
Headlamp Wiring
An electrical overload may
cause the lamps to go on and
off, or in some cases to remain
off. Have the headlamp wiring
checked right away if the
lamps go on and off or
remain off.
Windshield Wipers
If the wiper motor overheats
due to heavy snow or ice, the
windshield wipers will stop
until the motor cools and will
then restart.
Although the circuit is
protected from electrical
overload, overload due to
heavy snow or ice may cause
wiper linkage damage. Always
clear ice and heavy snow from
the windshield before using
the windshield wipers.
If the overload is caused by an
electrical problem and not
snow or ice, be sure to get it
fixed.
Fuses and Circuit
Breakers
The wiring circuits in the
vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination
of fuses and circuit breakers.
This greatly reduces the
chance of damage caused by
electrical problems.
{Danger
Fuses and circuit breakers
are marked with
their ampere rating. Do not
exceed the
specified amperage rating
when replacing fuses and
circuit breakers. Use of an
oversized fuse or circuit
breaker can result in a
vehicle fire. You and others
could be seriously injured or
killed.
{Warning
Installation or use of fuses
that do not meet GM’s
original fuse specifications is
dangerous. The fuses could
fail, and result in a fire. You (Continued)

maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low
tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been
equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is
not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and
then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacementor alternate tires or wheels on
the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle
to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
See Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
0344.
See Radio Frequency
Statement 0395.
Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS). The TPMS is designed
to warn the driver when a low
tire pressure condition exists.
TPMS sensors are mounted
onto each tire and wheel
assembly, excluding the spare
tire and wheel assembly. The
TPMS sensors monitor the air
pressure in the tires and 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 Limits
0202.
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 each time the vehicle
is turned on until the tires are
