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 or others could be injured
or killed, and the vehicle could be
damaged.
See Accessories and Modifications 0253 and
General Information 0253.
To check or replace a blown fuse, see
Electrical System Overload 0276.
Engine Compartment Fuse Block
The engine compartment fuse block is in the
engine compartment, on the driver side of
the vehicle. See Engine Compartment

Association.
(2) Tire Width
:The 3-digit number
indicates the tire section width in
millimeters from sidewall to sidewall.
(3) Aspect Ratio
:A 2-digit number that
indicates the tire height-to-width
measurements. For example, if the tire
size aspect ratio is 75, as shown in item (3) of the illustration, it would
mean that the tire's sidewall is
75 percent as high as it is wide.
(4) Construction Code
:A letter code is
used to indicate the type of ply
construction in the tire. The letter R
means radial ply construction; the
letter D means diagonal or bias ply
construction.
(5) Rim Diameter
:Diameter of the
wheel in inches.
(6) Service Description

:A 2-digit number that
indicates the tire height-to-width
measurements. For example, if the tire
size aspect ratio is 75, as shown in
item (3) of the light truck (LT-Metric)
tire illustration, it would mean that the
tire's sidewall is 75 percent as high as it
is wide.
(4) Construction Code
:A letter code is
used to indicate the type of ply
construction in the tire. The letter R
means radial ply construction; the
letter D means diagonal or bias ply
construction.
(5) Rim Diameter
:Diameter of the
wheel in inches. (6) Load Range
:Load Range.
(7) Service Description
:The service
description indicates the load index and
speed rating of a tire. If two numbers
are given as in the example, 120/116,
then this represents the load index for
single versus dual wheel usage (single/
dual). The speed rating is the maximum
speed a tire is certified to carry a load.
Tire Terminology and Definitions
Air Pressure:The amount of air inside
the tire pressing outward on each
square inch of the tire. Air pressure is
expressed in kPa (kilopascal) or psi
(pounds per square inch).
Aspect Ratio
:The relationship of a
tire's height to its width.
Belt
:A rubber coated layer of cords
that is located between the plies and
the tread. Cords may be made from
steel or other reinforcing materials.

:The tire bead contains steel
wires wrapped by steel cords that hold
the tire onto the rim. Bias Ply Tire
:A pneumatic tire in which
the plies are laid at alternate angles
less than 90 degrees to the centerline
of the tread.
Cold Tire Pressure
:The amount of air
pressure in a tire, measured in kPa
(kilopascal) or psi (pounds per square
inch) before a tire has built up heat
from driving. See Tire Pressure0290.
DOT Markings
:A code molded into the
sidewall of a tire signifying that the tire
is in compliance with the U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT)

Vehicle Capacity Weight
:The number
of designated seating positions
multiplied by 68 kg (150 lbs) plus the
rated cargo load. See Vehicle Load
Limits 0162.
Vehicle Maximum Load on the Tire
:
Load on an individual tire due to curb
weight, accessory weight, occupant
weight, and cargo weight.
Vehicle Placard
:A label permanently
attached to a vehicle showing the
vehicle's capacity weight and the
original equipment tire size and
recommended inflation pressure. See
“Tire and Loading Information Label”
under Vehicle Load Limits 0162.
Tire Pressure
Tires need the correct amount of air
pressure to operate effectively.
{Warning
Neither tire underinflation nor
overinflation is good. Underinflated
tires, or tires that do not have
enough air, can result in:
.Tire overloading and overheating,
which could lead to a blowout
.Premature or irregular wear
.Poor handling
.Reduced fuel economy for
internal combustion engine
vehicles
.Reduced range for electric vehicles
Overinflated tires, or tires that have
too much air, can result in:
.Unusual wear
.Poor handling
.Rough ride
.Needless damage from road
hazards The Tire and Loading Information label
on the vehicle indicates the original
equipment tires and the correct cold
tire inflation pressures. The
recommended pressure is the minimum
air pressure needed to support the
vehicle's maximum load carrying
capacity.
For additional information regarding
how much weight the vehicle can carry,
and an example of the Tire and Loading
Information label, see
Vehicle Load
Limits 0162. How the vehicle is loaded
affects vehicle handling and ride
comfort. Never load the vehicle with
more weight than it was designed to
carry.
When to Check
Check the pressure of the tires once a
month or more.
Do not forget the spare, if the vehicle
has one. See Full-Size Spare Tire 0311
for additional information.

Mexico-16510661) - 2023 - CRC - 11/29/22
294 Vehicle Care
{Warning
Overinflating a tire could cause the tire
to rupture and you or others could be
injured. Do not exceed the maximum
pressure listed on the tire sidewall. See
Tire Sidewall Labeling0285 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0162.
If the tire is overinflated by more than
35 kPa (5 psi), the horn will sound multiple
times and the turn signal lamp will continue
to flash for several seconds after filling
stops. To release and correct the pressure,
while the turn signal lamp is still flashing,
briefly press the center of the valve stem.
When the recommended pressure is reached,
the horn sounds once.
If the turn signal lamp does not flash within
15 seconds after starting to inflate the tire,
the tire fill alert has not been activated or is
not working.
If the hazard warning flashers are on, the
tire fill alert visual feedback will not work
properly. The TPMS will not activate the tire fill alert
properly under the following conditions:.There is interference from an external
device or transmitter.
.The air pressure from the inflation device
is not sufficient to inflate the tire.
.There is a malfunction in the TPMS.
.There is a malfunction in the horn or turn
signal lamps.
.The TPMS sensor identification code is not
registered to the system.
.The TPMS sensor battery is low.
If the tire fill alert does not operate due to
TPMS interference, move the vehicle about
1 m (3 ft) back or forward and try again.
If the tire fill alert feature is not working,
use a tire pressure gauge.
Air Down Mode (If Equipped)
Air Down Mode allows the driver to set a
custom tire pressure for better traction
during off-road driving. Visual and audible
alerts outside of the vehicle will alert the
driver when the desired tire pressure has
been reached. To enable Air Down Mode:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe, level place.
2. Place the vehicle in P (Park).
3. Place the vehicle in ON/RUN or press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for
more than five seconds. See Ignition
Positions 0167.
4. Touch the Off-Road app icon on the infotainment home screen.
5. Touch the Air Down Mode icon.
6. Select the target pressure, then press START.
7. Choose which tire to deflate. Remove the valve cap, then press and hold the tire
valve stem.
During tire deflation, the turn signal
lamp closest to the tire being deflated
will start flashing.
When the target pressure you selected
in Step 6 is reached, the horn sounds
once and the turn signal lamp will stop
flashing and turn solid for several
seconds before turning off. Replace the
valve cap. Wait for the turn signal lamp
to turn off before deflating the next tire.
If you deflate the next tire while the
turn signal lamp is still on, the Air Down
Mode will not work properly.
GMC Canyon/Canyon Denali Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/
Mexico-16510661) - 2023 - CRC - 11/29/22
Vehicle Care 295
Repeat Step 7 until all tires have been
deflated. Same steps can be followed for
inflating all tires to target pressure.
While in Air Down Mode, after all tires have
been deflated lower than the vehicle’s
recommended tire pressure, the low tire
pressure warning light and the DIC warning
message may come on for all tires.
Due to late air adjustment in a tire, the tire
pressure may change by 4 to 8 kpa (0.6 to
1.2 psi) after a few minutes, once you have
stopped deflation.
Ensure that the target pressure you select is
above or below your vehicle’s current tire
pressures by a least 20 kpa (3 psi).
If the tire is underinflated or overinflated by
more than 35 kPa (5 psi) from the target
pressure you selected in Step 6, the horn
will sound multiple times and the turn
signal lamp will continue to flash for several
seconds after tire pressure adjustment stops.
To correct the pressure, while the turn
signal lamp is still flashing, add air to inflate
the tire or briefly press the center of the
valve stem to deflate the tire. When the
target pressure you selected in Step 6 is
reached, the horn sounds once and the turn
signal lamp will stop flashing and turn solid
for several seconds before turning off. If the turn signal lamp does not flash within
15 seconds after starting to inflate the tire,
the Air Down Mode has not been activated
or is not working.
If the hazard warning flashers are on, the
Air Down Mode visual feedback will not
work properly.
The Air Down Mode will not work properly
under the following conditions:
.There is interference from an external
device or transmitter.
.The air pressure from the inflation device
is not sufficient to inflate the tire.
.There is a malfunction in the TPMS.
.There is a malfunction in the horn or turn
signal lamps.
.The TPMS sensor identification code is not
registered to the system.
.The TPMS sensor battery is low.
.The vehicle is not in P (Park).
.The vehicle is off.
.START was not pressed after selecting the
target tire pressure in the Air Down
Mode app.
If the Air Down Mode does not operate due
to TPMS interference, move the vehicle
about 1 m (3 ft) back or forward and try again. If the Air Down Mode is not working,
use a tire pressure gauge to confirm tire
pressure.
