possible injury. Always use the
proper GM approved brake fluid.
Caution
If brake fluid is spilled on the
vehicle's painted surfaces, the paint
finish can be damaged. Immediately
wash off any painted surface.

(4) Tire Identification Number
(TIN)
:The letters and numbers
following the DOT code are the
TIN. The TIN shows the
manufacturer and plant code, tire
size, and date the tire was
manufactured. The TIN is molded
onto both sides of the tire,
although only one side may have
the date of manufacture.
(5) Tire Ply Material
:The type
of cord and number of plies in the
sidewall and under the tread.
(6) Uniform Tire Quality
Grading (UTQG)
:Tire
manufacturers are required to
grade tires based on three
performance factors: tread wear,
traction, and temperature
resistance. For more information,
see Uniform Tire Quality Grading
0 420. (7) Maximum Cold Inf lation
Load Limit
:Maximum load that
can be carried and the maximum
pressure needed to support that
load. For information on
recommended tire pressure see
Tire Pressure 0409 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0241.
(8) Temporary Use Only
:Only
use a temporary spare tire until
the road tire is repaired and
replaced. This spare tire should
not be driven on over 112 km/h
(70 mph), or 88 km/h (55 mph)
when pulling a trailer, with the
proper inflation pressure. See
Full-Size Spare Tire 0435.
Tire Designations
Tire Size
The example shows a typical
passenger vehicle tire size.
Passenger (P-Metric) Tire
(1) Passenger (P-Metric) Tire:
The United States version of a
metric tire sizing system. The
letter "P" as the first character in
the tire size means a passenger
vehicle tire engineered to
standards set by the U.S. Tire and
Rim Association.
(2) Tire Width
:The 3-digit
number indicates the tire section
width in millimeters from sidewall
to sidewall.

424 VEHICLE CARE
{Warning
Changing a tire can be dangerous.
The vehicle can slip off the jack and
roll over or fall causing injury or
death. Find a level place to change
the tire. To help prevent the vehicle
from moving:1. Set the parking brake firmly.
2. Shift the vehicle to P (Park).
3. For vehicles with four-wheel drive with an N (Neutral)
transfer case position, be sure
the transfer case is in a drive
gear —not in N (Neutral).
4. Turn off the engine and do not restart while the vehicle is
raised.
5. Do not allow passengers to remain in the vehicle.
6. Place wheel blocks, if equipped, on both sides of the tire at the
opposite corner of the tire
being changed. When the vehicle has a flat tire (2),
use the following example as a guide
to assist in the placement of the
wheel blocks (1), if equipped.
1. Wheel Block (If Equipped)
2. Flat Tire
The following information explains
how to use the jack and change a tire.
Tire Changing
Before changing a flat tire, see
“Hands-Free Operation
”under Liftgate
0 19.
Removing the Spare Tire and
Tools
The equipment needed to change a
flat tire is stored in the rear of the
vehicle. The jacking tools are under
the load floor, secured with velcro
straps. The jack is behind a door in
the trim panel on the driver side.
1. Pull to open the trim panel door.
The third row driver side seat
may need to be folded to access
the trim panel door.

436 VEHICLE CARE
The vehicle may have a different size
spare tire than the road tires originally
installed on the vehicle. This spare tire
was developed for use on this vehicle,
so it is all right to drive on it. If the
vehicle has four-wheel drive and a
different size spare tire is installed,
drive only in two-wheel drive.
After installing the spare tire on the
vehicle, stop as soon as possible and
check that the spare is correctly
inflated. The spare tire is made to
perform well at speeds up to
112 km/h (70 MPH) at the
recommended inflation pressure, so
you can finish your trip.
Have the damaged or flat road tire
repaired or replaced and installed
back onto the vehicle as soon as
possible so the spare tire will be
available in case it is needed again. Do
not mix tires and wheels of difference
sizes, because they will not fit. Keep
the spare tire and its wheel together.
If the vehicle has a spare tire that
does not match the original road tires
and wheels in size and type, do not
include the spare in the tire rotation.Jump Starting

America
If the vehicle has a diesel engine, see
the Duramax diesel supplement.
For more information about the
vehicle battery, seeBattery - North
America 0386.
If the vehicle's battery (or batteries)
has run down, you may want to use
another vehicle and some jumper
cables to start your vehicle. Be sure to
use the following steps to do it safely.
{Warning
WARNING: Battery posts,
terminals and related accessories
can expose you to chemicals
including lead and lead compounds,
which are known to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling. For
more information go to
www.P65Warnings.ca.gov. See the warning on the back cover.
{Warning
Batteries can hurt you. They can be
dangerous because:
.They contain acid that can
burn you.
.They contain gas that can
explode or ignite.
.They contain enough electricity
to burn you.
If you do not follow these steps
exactly, some or all of these things
can hurt you.
Caution
Ignoring these steps could result in
costly damage to the vehicle that
would not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Trying to start the vehicle
by pushing or pulling it will not
work, and it could damage the
vehicle.

1. Good Battery Positive (+)Terminal
2. Good Battery Negative (–) Terminal
3. Discharged Battery Negative (–) Grounding Point
4. Discharged Battery Positive (+) Terminal
The good battery positive (+) terminal
and the good battery negative (–)
terminal are on the battery of the
vehicle providing the jump start.
The discharged battery positive (+)
terminal and the discharged battery
negative (–) grounding point are on
the passenger side of the vehicle. The discharged battery positive (+)
terminal is under a cover. Open the
cover to expose the terminal.
1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt battery with a
negative ground system.
Caution
If the other vehicle does not have a
12-volt system with a negative
ground, both vehicles can be
damaged. Only use a vehicle that
has a 12-volt system with a
negative ground for jump starting.
2. If you have a vehicle with a diesel engine with two batteries, you
should know before you begin that,
especially in cold weather, you may
not be able to get enough power
from a single battery in another
vehicle to start your diesel engine.
If your vehicle has more than one
battery, using the battery that is
closer to the starter will reduce
electrical resistance. This is located
on the passenger side, in the rear
of the engine compartment. 3. Get the vehicles close enough so
the jumper cables can reach, but be
sure the vehicles are not touching
each other. If they are, it could
cause an unwanted ground
connection. You would not be able
to start your vehicle, and the bad
grounding could damage the
electrical systems.
To avoid the possibility of the
vehicles rolling, set the parking
brake firmly on both vehicles
involved in the jump start
procedure. Put the automatic
transmission in P (Park) before
setting the parking brake. If you
have a four-wheel-drive vehicle, be
sure the transfer case is in a drive
gear, not in N (Neutral).
Caution
If any accessories are left on or
plugged in during the jump starting
procedure, they could be damaged.
The repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Whenever
possible, turn off or unplug all
accessories on either vehicle when
jump starting.
