®System.
Cleaning the DVD Player
When cleaning the outside DVD faceplate and buttons,
use only a clean cloth dampened with clean water.

Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to any
of the sources: radio, cassette tapes, or CDs. However,
the rear seat passengers can only control the sources
that the front seat passengers are not listening to.
For example, rear seat passengers may listen to and
control cassette tapes or CDs through the headphones
while the driver listens to the radio through the front
speakers. The rear seat passengers have control of the
volume for each set of headphones.

Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCK®is designed to discourage theft of your
vehicle’s radio. It works by using a secret code to
disable all radio functions whenever battery power is
removed and the radio is placed in a different vehicle.
This feature requires no user input to be activated.
The radio is automatically armed when it is put into the
vehicle for the rst time.
When the ignition is turned off, the blinking red light
indicates that THEFTLOCK
®is armed.
If THEFTLOCK
®is activated, the radio will not
operate if stolen. The radio will display LOCKED and
a red LED indicator light will come on above the
key symbol to indicate a locked condition. If this occurs,
the radio will need to be returned to your GM dealer.
Audio Steering Wheel Controls
If your vehicle has this feature, some audio controls
can be adjusted at the steering wheel. They include
the following:
SOURCE:When listening to the radio, press this button
to play a cassette tape, CD, or a DVD (if equipped).
If a cassette tape, and CD, and/or DVD are loaded,
the system will go to the tape play rst. The inactive
tape, CD, or DVD will remain safely inside the player
for future listening.

XM™ Satellite Radio Service
XM™ Satellite Radio Service gives digital radio
reception from coast-to-coast in the 48 contiguous
United States, and in Canada (if available). Just as with
FM, 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
XM™ signal for a period of time. The radio may display
NO SIGNAL to indicate interference.
Care of the Cassette Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can cause
reduced sound quality, ruined cassettes, or a damaged
mechanism. Cassette tapes should be stored in their
cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight, and
extreme heat. If they are not, they may not operate
properly or they may cause failure of the tape player.
The tape player should be cleaned regularly after
every 50 hours of use. The radio may display CLEAN
PLAYER to indicate that the tape player has been used
for 50 hours without resetting the tape clean timer.
If this message appears on the display, the cassette
tape player needs to be cleaned. It will still play
tapes, but it should be cleaned as soon as possible
to prevent damage to the tapes and player.If there is a reduction in sound quality, try a known
good cassette to see if the tape or the tape player is
at fault. If this other cassette has no improvement
in sound quality, clean the tape player.
For best results, use a scrubbing action, non-abrasive
cleaning cassette with pads which scrub the tape head as
the hubs of the cleaner cassette turn. The recommended
cleaning cassette is available through your dealer.
The cut tape detection feature of the cassette tape player
may identify the cleaning cassette tape as a damaged
tape, in error. If the cleaning cassette ejects, insert the
cassette at least three times to ensure thorough cleaning.
A non-scrubbing action, wet-type cleaner which uses a
cassette with a fabric belt to clean the tape head can be
used. This type of cleaning cassette will not eject on
its own. A non-scrubbing action cleaner may not clean
as thoroughly as the scrubbing type cleaner. The
use of a non-scrubbing action, dry-type cleaning
cassette is not recommended.
After the player is cleaned, press and hold the eject
button for ve seconds to reset the CLEAN PLAYER
indicator. The radio will display --- to show the indicator
was reset.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may
degrade over time. Always make sure the cassette tape
is in good condition before the tape player is serviced.

How to Reset the Engine Oil Life
System
The Engine Oil Life System calculates when to change
your engine oil and lter based on vehicle use.
Anytime your oil is changed, reset the system so it can
calculate when the next oil change is required. If a
situation occurs where you change your oil prior to a
CHANGE ENGINE OIL message being turned on,
reset the system.
If your vehicle does not have the optional Driver
Information Center (DIC), do the following:
1. Turn the ignition to ON, with the engine off.
2. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal
slowly three times within ve seconds.
3. Turn the key to OFF.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL message comes back
on when you start your vehicle, the engine oil life
system has not reset. Repeat the procedure.
If your vehicle has the optional DIC, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition to ON, with the engine off.
2. Press the MODE button until the DIC reads
OIL LIFE LEFT/HOLD SET TO RESET.3. Press and hold the SET button until 100%
is displayed.
You will hear three chimes and the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL message will go off.
4. Turn the key to OFF.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL message comes back on
when you start your vehicle, the engine oil life system
has not reset. Repeat the procedure.
What to Do with Used Oil
Used engine oil contains certain elements that may be
unhealthy for your skin and could even cause cancer.
Do not let used oil stay on your skin for very long. Clean
your skin and nails with soap and water, or a good
hand cleaner. Wash or properly dispose of clothing or
rags containing used engine oil. See the manufacturer’s
warnings about the use and disposal of oil products.
Used oil can be a threat to the environment. If you
change your own oil, be sure to drain all the oil from
the lter before disposal. Never dispose of oil by putting
it in the trash, pouring it on the ground, into sewers,
or into streams or bodies of water. Instead, recycle it by
taking it to a place that collects used oil. If you have
a problem properly disposing of your used oil, ask your
dealer, a service station or a local recycling center
for help.

Windshield Replacement
Keep in mind that your windshield is part of the Head-Up
Display (HUD) system. If you ever have to get your
windshield replaced, be sure to get one that is designed
for HUD or your HUD image may look blurred or out
of focus.
Windshield Wiper Blade
Replacement
Windshield wiper blades should be inspected for wear
and cracking. SeeScheduled Maintenance on page 6-4
for more information.
Replacement blades come in different types and are
removed in different ways. For proper type and length,
seeNormal Maintenance Replacement Parts on
page 6-13.

To reset the system, do the following:
1. With the engine off, turn the ignition to ON.
2. Press the MODE button until the DIC reads LOW
TIRE PRESSURE HOLD SET TO RESET.
3. Press and hold the SET button until you hear a
chime, and TIRE PRESSURE RESET is displayed.
You will hear three chimes, then the LOW TIRE
PRESSURE message will go off and the DIC will return
to TIRE PRESSURE NORMAL. If the LOW TIRE
PRESSURE message comes back on, the check tire
pressure system has not reset. Repeat the procedure.
The system completes the calibration process during
driving. The system learns the pressure at each
tire throughout the operating speed range of your
vehicle. The system normally takes between 30 and
60 minutes of driving to learn the tire pressures.
The system normally takes 10 to 20 minutes of
driving in each speed range to learn tire pressures.
The speed ranges are 20 to 40 mph (32 to 64 km/h),
40 to 60 mph (64 to 96 km/h), and above 60 mph
(96 km/h). This time may be longer depending on your
individual driving habits. The learning process does
not need to be completed during a single trip.
Once learned, the system will remember the tire
pressure until the system is reset.Tire Inspection and Rotation
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles
(8 000 to 13 000 km).
Any time you notice unusual wear, rotate your tires as
soon as possible and check wheel alignment. Also
check for damaged tires or wheels. SeeWhen It Is Time
for New Tires on page 5-62andWheel Replacement
on page 5-66for more information.
Make sure the spare tire is stored securely. Push,
pull, and then try to rotate or turn the tire, If it moves,
use the folding wrench to tighten the cable. SeeStoring
a Flat or Spare Tire and Tools on page 5-84.
The purpose of regular rotation is to achieve more
uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. The rst rotation
is the most important. SeeScheduled Maintenance
on page 6-4.
