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 indicator.
The radio will display --- or CLEANED 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.Care of Your CDs and DVDs
Handle CDs and DVDs carefully. Store them in their
original cases or other protective cases and away from
direct sunlight and dust. The CD and DVD player
scans the bottom surface of the disc. If the surface of a
CD or DVD is damaged, such as cracked, broken, or
scratched, the CD or DVD will not play properly or not at
all. If the surface of a CD or DVD is soiled, take a
soft, lint free cloth or dampen a clean, soft cloth in a
mild, neutral detergent solution mixed with water,
and clean it. Make sure the wiping process starts from
the center to the edge. If a dampened cloth was
used to clean the disc, dry it with a dry cotton cloth.
Do not touch the bottom side of a CD or DVD
while handling it; this could damage the surface. Pick up
CDs or DVDs by grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.
Care of the CD and DVD Player
The use of CD or DVD lens cleaners for CDs or DVDs
are not advised, due to the risk of contaminating the
lens of the CD optics with lubricants internal to the CD
or DVD mechanism.

After Off-Road Driving
Remove any brush or debris that has collected on the
underbody, chassis, or under the hood. These
accumulations can be a re hazard.
After operation in mud or sand, have the brake linings
cleaned and checked. These substances can cause
glazing and uneven braking. Check the engine and oil
coolers for mud accumulation. Thoroughly and carefully
clean these devices to allow proper cooling. Check
the body structure, steering, suspension, wheels, tires,
and exhaust system for damage. Also, check the
fuel lines and cooling system for any leakage.
Your vehicle will require more frequent service due to
off-road use. See the Maintenance Schedule for
additional information.
Assist Steps
Your vehicle may be equipped with removable side steps.
Remove the steps prior to off-roading to give your
vehicle more ground clearance and to prevent damage
to the vehicle from the side steps dragging and/or
catching on obstacles.
Notice:Do not drive off-road with the side steps
attached to your vehicle. You can damage the side
steps and/or your vehicle’s frame if they get caught
or drag against an obstacle. This damage would not
be covered by your vehicle’s warranty. Always
remove the side steps prior to any off-road driving.
U-Type Side Steps
The following instructions show how to install the
optional U-type steps. If you want to remove them, just
reverse the instructions:
1. Start with the side step brackets pointing up and
away from you, or just make sure the HUMMER
logo faces up.
2. For the front step, use the rst and third brackets
on the vehicle from the front tire. For the rear step,
use the rst and third brackets on the vehicle
from the rear tire.
You will notice that the side steps have pins on
both sides of the step brackets. This is because the
steps are interchangeable between front/back
and the driver/passenger sides of the vehicle. Use
the pins as follows:
Driver Side:Look at the side step with the
HUMMER logo facing you. You will use the pins
which are on the right side of each side step
bracket. This works for the front or rear of
the vehicle.
Passenger Side:Look at the side step with the
HUMMER logo facing you. You will use the pins
which are on the left side of each side step
bracket. This works for the front or rear of
the vehicle.
