Navigation Audio System
Notice:Before adding any sound equipment
to your vehicle, such as an audio system,
CD player, CB radio, mobile telephone,
or two-way radio, make sure that it can be
added by checking with your dealer. Also,
check federal rules covering mobile radio and
telephone units. If sound equipment can be
added, it is very important to do it properly.
Added sound equipment may interfere with the
operation of your vehicle’s engine, radio, or
other systems, and even damage them.
Your vehicle’s systems may interfere with the
operation of sound equipment that has
been added.
Your vehicle has a feature called Retained
Accessory Power (RAP). With RAP, the audio
system can be played even after the ignition
is turned off. SeeRetained Accessory Power
(RAP) on page 89for more information.
The audio system is operated using navigation
system menus. The audio menus are explained in
this section.

The heavier the rain, the harder it is to see. Even
if your windshield wiper blades are in good
shape, a heavy rain can make it harder to see
road signs and traffic signals, pavement markings,
the edge of the road, and even people walking.
It is wise to keep your windshield wiping equipment
in good shape and keep your windshield washer
uid reservoir lled with washer uid. Replace your
windshield wiper inserts when they show signs
of streaking or missing areas on the windshield, or
when strips of rubber start to separate from the
inserts.
{CAUTION:
Wet brakes can cause accidents. They
may not work as well in a quick stop and
may cause pulling to one side. You could
lose control of the vehicle.
After driving through a large puddle of
water or a car wash, apply your brake
pedal lightly until your brakes work
normally.Driving too fast through large water puddles or
even going through some car washes can cause
problems, too. The water may affect your
brakes. Try to avoid puddles. But if you cannot, try
to slow down before you hit them.
Hydroplaning
Hydroplaning is dangerous. So much water can
build up under your tires that they can actually ride
on the water. This can happen if the road is wet
enough and you are going fast enough. When your
vehicle is hydroplaning, it has little or no contact
with the road.
Hydroplaning does not happen often. But it can if
your tires do not have much tread or if the
pressure in one or more is low. It can happen if a
lot of water is standing on the road. If you can
see reections from trees, telephone poles,
or other vehicles, and raindrops dimple the water’s
surface, there could be hydroplaning.
Hydroplaning usually happens at higher speeds.
There just is not a hard and fast rule about
hydroplaning. The best advice is to slow down
when it is raining.

Some road hazards can damage a tire beyond
repair. This damage could occur even before you
have driven on the tire in a deated condition.
When a tire has been damaged, or if you
have driven any distance on a run-at tire, check
with an authorized run-at tire service center
to determine whether the tire can be repaired or
should be replaced. To maintain your vehicle’s
run-at feature, all replacement tires must
be self-supporting tires. As soon as possible,
contact the nearest authorized GM or run-at
servicing facility for inspection and repair or
replacement. To locate the nearest GM or run-at
servicing facility, call Roadside Assistance. For
phone numbers and Roadside Service details see
Roadside Service on page 487.
{CAUTION:
Run-at tires are constructed differently
than other tires and could explode during
improper service. You or others could be
injured or killed if you attempt to repair,
replace, dismount, or mount a run-at tire.
Let only an authorized run-at service
center repair, replace, dismount, and
mount run-at tires.
The valve stems on your run-at tires have
sensors that are part of the Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS). SeeTire Pressure Monitor
System on page 423. These sensors contain
batteries which are designed to last for 10 years
under normal driving conditions. See your dealer if
you ever need to have a wheel replaced, or if
the sensors ever need replacement.
Notice:Using liquid sealants can damage the
tire valves and tire pressure monitor sensors in
your vehicle’s run-at tires. This damage would
not be covered by warranty. Do not use liquid
sealants in your vehicle’s run-at tires.
