72 Seats and Restraints
In addition, the vehicle has a
passenger sensing system for
the front outboard passenger
position, which includes
sensors that are part of the
passenger seat. The
passenger sensing system
may not operate properly if
the original seat trim is
replaced with non-GM covers,
upholstery, or trim; or with GM
covers, upholstery, or trim
designed for a different
vehicle. Any object, such as an
aftermarket seat heater or a
comfort-enhancing pad or
device, installed under or on
top of the seat fabric, could
also interfere with the
operation of the passenger
sensing system. This could
either prevent proper
deployment of the passenger
airbag(s) or prevent the
passenger sensing system
from properly turning off the
passenger airbag(s). See
Passenger Sensing System
066. If the vehicle has rollover
roof-rail airbags, see Different
Size Tires and Wheels
0352
for additional important
information.
If the vehicle must be modified
because you have a disability
and have questions about
whether the modifications will
affect the vehicle's airbag
system, or if you have
questions about whether the
airbag system will be affected
if the vehicle is modified for
any other reason, call
Customer Assistance. See
Customer Assistance Offices
0 386.
Airbag System Check
The airbag system does not
need regularly scheduled
maintenance or replacement.
Make sure the airbag
readiness light is working. See
Airbag Readiness Light 0112.
Caution
If an airbag covering is
damaged, opened, or broken,
the airbag may not work
properly. Do not open or
break the airbag coverings.
If there are any opened or
broken airbag coverings,
have the airbag covering
and/or airbag module
replaced. For the location of
the airbags, see Where Are
the Airbags? 061. See your
dealer for service.

To close the rear A/C vents,
move the sliding knobs to the
full inboard position.
Operation Tips
.Clear away any ice, snow,
or leaves from air inlets at
the base of the windshield
that could block the flow of
air into the vehicle.
.Clear snow off the hood to
improve visibility and help
decrease moisture drawn
into the vehicle.
.Keep the path under the
front seats clear of objects
to help circulate the air
inside of the vehicle more
effectively.
.Use of non-GM approved
hood deflectors can
adversely affect the
performance of the system.
Check with your dealer
before adding equipment to
the outside of the vehicle.
.Do not attach any devices to
the air vent slats. This will
restrict airflow and may
cause damage to the air
vents.
Maintenance
Passenger
Compartment Air
Filter
The filter reduces the dust,
pollen, and other airborne
irritants from outside air that
is pulled into the vehicle.
The filter should be replaced
as part of routine scheduled
maintenance. To find out what
type of filter to use, see
Maintenance Replacement
Parts0380.1. Open the glove box door

Service
All vehicles have a label
underhood that identifies the
refrigerant used in the vehicle. The refrigerant system should
only be serviced by trained
and certified technicians. The
air conditioning evaporator
should never be repaired or
replaced by one from a
salvage vehicle. It should only
be replaced by a new
evaporator to ensure proper
and safe operation.
During service, all refrigerants
should be reclaimed with
proper equipment. Venting
refrigerants directly to the
atmosphere is harmful to the
environment and may also
create unsafe conditions
based on inhalation,
combustion, frostbite, or other
health-based concerns.
The air conditioning system
requires periodic maintenance.

Driving and Operating 195
Allow the vehicle to warm up
for 20 minutes before driving.
Vehicle Charging/
Maintenance
Charging
Keep the vehicle plugged in,
even when fully charged, to
keep the battery temperature
ready for the next drive. This
is important when outside
temperatures are extremely
hot or cold.
If possible, use a level 2
(240 volt) high power charge
station for best results. This
allows the interior of the
vehicle and high voltage
battery to warm to optimal
temperature.
Maintenance
Always keep the tires properly
inflated and the vehicle
properly aligned.
The weight of excess cargo in
the vehicle affects efficiency
and range. Avoid carrying
more than is needed.Avoid unnecessary use of
electrical accessories. Power
used for functions other than
propelling the vehicle will
reduce the available range.
Using a rooftop carrier will
reduce efficiency due to
additional weight and drag.
Distracted Driving
Distraction comes in many
forms and can take your focus
from the task of driving.
Exercise good judgment and
do not let other activities
divert your attention away
from the road. Many local
governments have enacted
laws regarding driver
distraction. Become familiar
with the local laws in
your area.
To avoid distracted driving,
keep your eyes on the road,
keep your hands on the
steering wheel, and focus your
attention on driving.
.Do not use a mobile phone in
demanding driving situations.
Use a hands-free method to
place or receive necessary
phone calls.
.Watch the road. Do not read,
take notes, or look up
information on mobile
phones or other electronic
devices.
.Designate a front seat
passenger to handle
potential distractions.
.Become familiar with vehicle
features before driving, such
as programming favorite
radio stations and adjusting
climate control and seat
settings. Program all trip
information into any
navigation device prior to
driving.
.Wait until the vehicle is
parked to retrieve items that
have fallen to the floor.
.Stop or park the vehicle to
tend to children.
.Keep pets in an appropriate
carrier or restraint.

moving at 100 km/h (60 mph)
travels 20 m (66 ft), which
could be a lot of distance in an
emergency.
Helpful braking tips to keep in
mind include:
.Keep enough distance
between you and the vehicle
in front of you.
.Avoid needless heavy
braking.
.Keep pace with traffic.
Steering
Electric Power SteeringCaution
To avoid damage to the
steering system, do not
drive over curbs, parking
barriers, or similar objects at
speeds greater than 3 km/h
(1 mph). Use care when
driving over other objects
such as lane dividers and
speed bumps. Damage (Continued)
Caution (Continued)
caused by misuse of the
vehicle is not covered by the
vehicle warranty.
The vehicle has electric power
steering. It does not have
power steering fluid. Regular
maintenance is not required.
If power steering assist is lost
due to a system malfunction,
the vehicle can be steered, but
may require increased effort. If the steering assist is used
for an extended period of time
while the vehicle is not moving,
power assist may be reduced.
If the steering wheel is turned
until it reaches the end of its
travel and is held against that
position for an extended
period of time, power steering
assist may be reduced.
Normal use of the power
steering assist should return
when the system cools down.
See your dealer if there is a
problem.
Curve Tips
.Take curves at a reasonable
speed.
.Reduce speed before
entering a curve.
.Maintain a reasonable
steady speed through the
curve.
.Wait until the vehicle is out
of the curve before
accelerating gently into the
straightaway.
