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.

Universal Remote
System Programming
If equipped, the Universal
Garage Door (Universal
Remote) controls are located
on the infotainment screen.
This system can replace up to
eight remote control
transmitters used to activate
devices such as garage door
openers, security systems,
and home automation devices.
These instructions refer to a
garage door opener, but can
be used for other devices.
Do not use the Universal
Remote system with any
garage door opener that does not have the stop and reverse
feature. This includes any
garage door opener model
manufactured before April
1, 1982.
Keep the original hand-held
transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future
programming. Erase the
programming when vehicle
ownership is terminated. See
“Erasing Universal Remotes.”
To program a garage door
opener, park outside directly in
line with and facing the garage
door opener receiver. Clear all
people and objects away from
the garage door.
Make sure the hand-held
transmitter has a new battery
for quick and accurate
transmission of the
radio-frequency signal.

.The vehicle changes
directions more than once,
or the vehicle is turning on a
turn table in a parking lot.
.The vehicle is entering and/
or exiting a parking lot,
garage, or a lot with a roof.
.The GPS signal is not
received.
.A roof carrier is installed on
the vehicle.
.Tire chains are installed on
the vehicle.
.The tires are replaced
or worn.
.The tire pressure for the
tires is incorrect.
.This is the first navigation
use after the map data is
updated.
.The 12-volt battery has been
disconnected for
several days.
.The vehicle is driving in
heavy traffic where driving is
at low speeds, and the
vehicle is stopped and
started repeatedly.
Problems with Route
Guidance
Inappropriate route guidance
can occur under one or more
of the following conditions:
.The turn was not made on
the road indicated.
.Route guidance might not be
available when using
automatic rerouting for the
next right or left turn.
.The route might not be
changed when using
automatic rerouting.
.There is no route guidance
when turning at an
intersection.
.Automatic rerouting might
display a route returning to
the set waypoint if heading
for a destination without
passing through a set
waypoint.
.The route prohibits the
entry of a vehicle due to a
regulation by time or season
or any other regulation
which may be given.
.Some routes might not be
searched.
.The route to the destination
might not be shown if there
are new roads, if roads have
recently changed, or if
certain roads are not listed
in Maps.
To recalibrate the vehicle's
position on the map, park with
the vehicle running for two to
five minutes, until the vehicle
position updates. Make sure
the vehicle is parked in a
location that is safe and has a
clear view of the sky and away
from large obstructions.

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.

198 Driving and Operating
Steering in Emergencies
.There are some situations
when steering around a
problem may be more
effective than braking.
.Holding both sides of the
steering wheel allows you to
turn 180 degrees without
removing a hand.
.The Antilock Brake System
(ABS) allows steering while
braking.
Off-Road Recovery
The vehicle's right wheels can
drop off the edge of a road
onto the shoulder while
driving. Follow these tips:1. Ease off the accelerator and then, if there is nothing
in the way, steer the vehicle
so that it straddles the edge
of the pavement.
2. Turn the steering wheel about one-eighth of a turn,
until the right front tire
contacts the
pavement edge.
3. Turn the steering wheel to go straight down the
roadway.
Loss of Control
Skidding
There are three types of skids
that correspond to the
vehicle's three control
systems:
.Braking Skid —wheels are
not rolling.
.Steering or Cornering Skid —
too much speed or steering
in a curve causes tires to slip
and lose cornering force.
.Acceleration Skid —too
much throttle causes the
driving wheels to spin.
Defensive drivers avoid most
skids by taking reasonable
care suited to existing
conditions, and by not
overdriving those conditions.
But skids are always possible.
If the vehicle starts to slide,
follow these suggestions:
.Ease your foot off the
accelerator pedal and steer
the way you want the vehicle
to go. The vehicle may
straighten out. Be ready for
a second skid if it occurs.
.Slow down and adjust your
driving according to weather
conditions. Stopping
distance can be longer and
vehicle control can be
affected when traction is
reduced by water, snow, ice,
gravel, or other material on
