auxiliary power outlet.
Luggage/Load Locations
Cargo Area
All-Weather Cargo Area
The vehicle's cargo area can be used in
many different configurations—cargo
panels on or off, midgate up or down, rear
glass in or out. It has features that resist
the elements and protect cargo. It is designed to quickly direct water out of the
cargo box. The top drain grates and midgate
drain help do this.
Even when all of these things are working
properly and the cover system is on, there
may be some instances (heavy rains,
automated car washes, etc.) when water can
collect in the following areas:
A. Top drain grates
B. Removable front drain grate (midgate
drain grate)
C. Water drainage area around both sides of the box and the tailgate side
D. Cargo floor
Maintenance and Cleaning
To ensure that the water management
system performs properly, be sure that the
midgate, tailgate, and cover system are fully
closed and that all parts are clean and not
blocked with debris. Follow the instructions
given next in this section for the proper
procedures on cleaning each item.
Top Drain Grates Cleaning
The top drain grates are located near the
rear window on both sides of the vehicle.
Clean the grates and drains if there is a
blockage.

Instruments and Controls 101
Rear of Center Console Power Outlet
When the power button is ON/RUN, power
to the 110 Volt outlet is enabled after the
-button is pressed, see Instrument
Panel Overview 04for button location.
A green indicator light on the button
indicates when the 110 Volt outlet is
enabled. 110 Volt power is supplied to the
outlet when it is enabled and electrical
equipment is plugged into that outlet. One
power outlet can be used with electrical
equipment that uses a maximum of 400
watts. Ensure that all connected devices do
not exceed 400 watts. The power outlet can be turned off by
pressing the
-button.
An indicator light on the outlet illuminates
when the system is enabled and no system
fault is detected. The outlet will not provide
power when the vehicle is off, the
-
button is not pressed, or the plug is not
fully seated into the outlet. The outlet does
not operate while the vehicle is starting. If a
USB powered streaming device is being
used, it is suggested to use a USB Port for
power, see USB Port0154. If uninterrupted
power supply is required while driving,
disable the auto-stop feature, see Power
Modes 0197.
If equipment is connected using more than
400 watts or a system fault is detected, a
protection circuit shuts off the power supply
and the indicator light will flash.
Do not use a power outlet with a missing or
damaged cover. The power outlet is not designed for the
following, and may not work properly if
they are plugged in:
.Equipment with high initial peak wattage,
such as compressor-driven refrigerators
and electric power tools
.Other equipment requiring an extremely
stable power supply, such as
microcomputer-controlled electric blankets
and touch sensor lamps
.Medical equipment
Onboard Generator
If equipped and enabled, the vehicle outlets
can be used to power compatible devices up
to 7.2 kW. Through the use of a GM
accessory, 3 kW of power is also available
through the charge port to external devices.
Locating the Outlets
The power outlets are located in the cabin,
bed, and eTrunk™
of the vehicle.

reduce interference, some static can occur,
especially around tall buildings or hills,
causing the sound to fade in and out.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater
than for FM, especially at night. The longer
range can cause station frequencies to
interfere with each other. Static can also
occur when things like storms and power
lines interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble on the
radio.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
If equipped, SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
provides digital radio reception. Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with satellite
radio signals, causing the sound to fade in
and out. In addition, traveling or standing
under heavy foliage, bridges, garages,
or tunnels may cause loss of the SiriusXM
signal for a period of time. Some cellular
services may interfere with SXM reception
causing loss of signal.
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as making or
receiving calls, charging, or just having the
mobile device on may cause static
interference in the radio. Unplug the mobile
device or turn it off if this happens.
Multi-Band Antenna
The multi-band roof antenna may be used
for radio, navigation, and other
communication systems, depending on the
equipped options. To ensure clear reception,
keep the antenna clear of obstructions, such
as snow and ice. If the vehicle has a
sunroof, and it is open, or a roof loaded
with cargo, reception may be affected.
Audio Players
Avoiding Untrusted Media Devices
When using media devices such as USB and
mobile devices, consider the source.
Untrusted media devices could contain files
that affect system operation or performance
and should be avoided.
USB Port
The vehicle may be equipped with multiple
USB ports. Ports may also be used for
charging. Music may be played from a
connected USB device.
Caution
To avoid vehicle damage, unplug all
accessories and disconnect all accessory
cables from the vehicle when not in use.
Accessory cables left plugged into the
vehicle, unconnected to a device, could be
damaged or cause an electrical short if
the unconnected end comes in contact
with liquids or another power source such
as the accessory power outlet.
USB Audio
