•The driver disables the system.
•The ultrasonic sensors are not clean. Keep the
vehicle’s rear bumper free of mud, dirt, snow,ice and slush. For cleaning instructions, seeWashing Your Vehicle on page 6-95.
•A trailer was attached to the vehicle, or a bicycle or
an object was hanging out of the trunk during thelast drive cycle, the red light may illuminate inthe rear display. Once the attached object isremoved, URPA will return to normal operation.
•A tow bar is attached to the vehicle.
•The vehicle’s bumper is damaged. Take the vehicle
to your dealer/retailer to repair the system.
•Other conditions may affect system performance,
such as vibrations from a jackhammer or thecompression of air brakes on a very large truck.
If the system is still disabled after driving forward atleast 25 km/h (15 mph), take the vehicle to yourdealer/retailer.
Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
The vehicle may have a Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)system. Read this entire section before using the system.
{WARNING:
SBZA is only a lane changing aid and does not
replace driver vision. SBZA does not detect:
•Vehicles outside the side blind zones which
may be rapidly approaching.
•Pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals.
Failure to use proper care when changing lanesmay result in damage to the vehicle, injury, ordeath. Always check the outside and rearviewmirrors, glance over your shoulder, and use theturn signal before changing lanes.
When the system detects a vehicle in the side blindzone, amber SBZA displays will light up in the sidemirrors. This indicates that it may be unsafe to changelanes. Before making a lane change, always checkthe SBZA display, check the outside and rearviewmirrors, look over your shoulder for vehicles andhazards, and use the turn signal.

4. Start with the driver side front tire.
5. Remove the valve cap from the valve cap stem.Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing ordecreasing the tire’s air pressure for five seconds,or until a horn chirp sounds. The horn chirp,which may take up to 30 seconds to sound,confirms that the sensor identification code hasbeen matched to this tire and wheel position.
6. Proceed to the passenger side front tire, and repeatthe procedure in Step 5.
7. Proceed to the passenger side rear tire, and repeatthe procedure in Step 5.
8. Proceed to the driver side rear tire, and repeat theprocedure in Step 5.

If you need to replace any of your wheels, wheel bolts,wheel nuts, or Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)sensors, replace them only with new GM originalequipment parts. This way, you will be sure to have theright wheel, wheel bolts, wheel nuts, and TPMSsensors for your vehicle.
{WARNING:
Using the wrong replacement wheels, wheel bolts,
or wheel nuts on your vehicle can be dangerous. It
could affect the braking and handling of your
vehicle, make your tires lose air and make you
lose control. You could have a collision in which
you or others could be injured. Always use the
correct wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel nuts for
replacement.
Notice:The wrong wheel can also cause problemswith bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer orodometer calibration, headlamp aim, bumper height,vehicle ground clearance, and tire or tire chainclearance to the body and chassis.
If your vehicle is a professional model, the wheels havea unique offset and bolt hole diameter. Each of thewheels on the professional vehicle have eight wheelsnuts. The wheels on the non-professional vehiclehave five wheel nuts. SeeChanging a Flat Tire onpage 6-80for more information.
Used Replacement Wheels
{WARNING:
Putting a used wheel on the vehicle is dangerous.
You cannot know how it has been used or how far
it has been driven. It could fail suddenly and
cause a crash. If you have to replace a wheel, use
a new GM original equipment wheel.
