362 VEHICLE CARE
Caution
Immediately remove cleaners, hand
lotions, sunscreen, and insect
repellent from all interior surfaces
or permanent damage may result.
Caution
Use cleaners specifically designed
for the surfaces being cleaned to
prevent permanent damage to the
vehicle. Apply all cleaners directly
to a cleaning cloth. Do not spray
cleaners on any switches or
controls.
When using liquid soap cleaners,
follow the directions on the specific
cleaner or soap solution for dilution
instructions.
Caution
To prevent damage:
.Never use a razor or any other
sharp object to remove soil from
any interior surface (Continued)
Caution (Continued)
.Never use a brush with stiff
bristles.
.Never rub any surface
aggressively or with too much
pressure.
.Do not get any exposed electrical
components wet.
.Do not use laundry detergents or
dishwashing soaps with
degreasers. Do not use solutions
that contain strong or
caustic soap.
.Do not heavily saturate the
upholstery when cleaning.
.Do not use solvents or cleaners
containing solvents.
.Do not use disinfecting wipes
that are scented or contain
bleach. Do not use wipes or
cleaners that show a color
transfer to the wipe or change
the appearance of the interior
surface when used.
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
.Do not use scented or gel-type
hand sanitizers. If hand sanitizer
comes in contact with interior
surfaces of the vehicle, blot
immediately and clean with a
soft cloth dampened with a mild
soap and water solution.
Interior Glass
To clean, use a microfiber cloth fabric
dampened with water. Wipe droplets
left behind with a clean dry cloth.
If necessary, use a commercial glass
cleaner after cleaning with plain water.
Caution
To prevent scratching, never use
abrasive cleaners on automotive
glass. Abrasive cleaners or
aggressive cleaning may damage
the rear window defogger.
Cleaning the windshield with water
during the first three to six months of
ownership will reduce tendency to fog.

VEHICLE CARE 363
Speaker Covers
Vacuum around a speaker cover
gently, so that the speaker will not be
damaged. Clean spots with water and
mild soap.
Coated Moldings
Coated moldings should be cleaned.
.When lightly soiled, wipe with a
sponge or soft, lint-free cloth
dampened with water.
.When heavily soiled, use warm
soapy water.
Vinyl/Rubber
If equipped with vinyl floor and
rubber floor mats, use a soft cloth
and/or brush dampened with water to
remove dust and loose dirt. For more
thorough cleaning, use a mild soap
and water solution.
{Warning
Do not use cleaners that contain
silicone, wax-based products,
or cleaners that increase gloss on
vinyl/rubber floor and mats. These(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
cleaners can permanently change
the appearance and feel of the
vinyl/rubber and can make the floor
slippery. Your foot could slip while
operating the vehicle, and you
could lose control, resulting in a
crash. You or others could be
injured.
Fabric/Carpet/Suede
Start by vacuuming the surface using
a soft brush attachment. If a rotating
vacuum brush attachment is being
used, only use it on the floor carpet.
Before cleaning, gently remove as
much of the soil as possible:
.Gently blot liquids with a paper
towel. Continue blotting until no
more soil can be removed.
.For solid soils, remove as much as
possible prior to vacuuming.
To clean: 1. Saturate a clean, lint-free colorfast cloth with water. Microfiber cloth is
recommended to prevent lint
transfer to the fabric or carpet. 2. Remove excess moisture by gently
wringing until water does not drip
from the cleaning cloth.
3. Start on the outside edge of the soil and gently rub toward the
center. Fold the cleaning cloth to a
clean area frequently to prevent
forcing the soil into the fabric.
4. Continue gently rubbing the soiled area until there is no longer any
color transfer from the soil to the
cleaning cloth.
5. If the soil is not completely removed, use a mild soap solution
followed only by plain water.
If the soil is not completely removed,
it may be necessary to use a
commercial upholstery cleaner or spot
lifter. Test a small hidden area for
colorfastness before using a
commercial upholstery cleaner or spot
lifter. If ring formation occurs, clean
the entire fabric or carpet.
After cleaning, use a paper towel to
blot excess moisture.

General Information
Your vehicle is an important
investment. This section describes the
required maintenance for the vehicle.
Follow this schedule to help protect
against major repair expenses
resulting from neglect or inadequate
maintenance. It may also help to
maintain the value of the vehicle if it
is sold. It is the responsibility of the
owner to have all required
maintenance performed.
Your dealer has trained technicians
who can perform required
maintenance using genuine
replacement parts. They have
up-to-date tools and equipment for
fast and accurate diagnostics. Many
dealers have extended evening and
Saturday hours, courtesy
transportation, and online scheduling
to assist with service needs. Your dealer recognizes the importance
of providing competitively priced
maintenance and repair services. With
trained technicians, the dealer is the
place for routine maintenance such as
oil changes and tire rotations and
additional maintenance items like
tires, brakes, batteries, and wiper
blades.
Caution
Damage caused by improper
maintenance can lead to costly
repairs and may not be covered by
the vehicle warranty. Maintenance
intervals, checks, inspections,
recommended fluids, and lubricants
are important to keep the vehicle in
good working condition.
Do not have chemical flushes that
are not approved by GM performed
on the vehicle. The use of flushes,
solvents, cleaners, or lubricants that
are not approved by GM could
damage the vehicle, requiring
expensive repairs that are not
covered by the vehicle warranty.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 369
Engine Oil Change
When the CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON message displays, have the
engine oil and filter changed within
the next 1 000 km/600 mi. If driven
under the best conditions, the engine
oil life system may not indicate the
need for vehicle service for up to a
year. The engine oil and filter must be
changed at least once a year and the
oil life system must be reset. Your
trained dealer technician can perform
this work. If the engine oil life system
is reset accidentally, service the
vehicle within 5 000 km/3,000 mi since
the last service. Reset the oil life
system when the oil is changed. See
Engine Oil Life System0292.
Engine Air Filter Change
When the REPLACE AT NEXT OIL
CHANGE message displays, the engine
air filter should be replaced at the
next engine oil change. When the
REPLACE ENGINE AIR FILTER SOON
message displays, the engine air filter
should be replaced at the earliest
convenience. Reset the engine air
filter life system after the engine air
filter is replaced. See Engine Air Filter
Life System 0293.

The air conditioning system requires
maintenance every seven years. This
service requires replacement of the
desiccant to help the longevity and
efficient operation of the air
conditioning system. This service can
be complex. See your dealer.

Footnotes—Maintenance Schedule
Additional Required Services -
Severe
(1) Vehicles with different size front
and rear tires do not have tire
rotation. See Tire Rotation0332.
(2) Or every two years, whichever
comes first. More frequent passenger
compartment air filter replacement
may be needed if driving in areas with
heavy traffic, poor air quality, high
dust levels, or environmental
allergens. Passenger compartment air
filter replacement may also be needed
if there is reduced airf low, window
fogging, or odors. Your GM dealer can
help determine when to replace the
filter.
(3) Do not directly power wash the
transfer case and/or front/rear axle
output seals. High pressure water can
overcome the seals and contaminate
the transfer case fluid. Contaminated
fluid will decrease the life of the
transfer case and/or axles and should
be replaced.
(4) Or every five years, whichever
comes first. See Cooling System0295. (5)
Or every 10 years, whichever
comes first. Inspect for fraying,
excessive cracking, or damage; replace,
if needed.
(6) Replace brake fluid every five
years. See Brake Fluid 0300.
(7) Or every 12 months, whichever
comes first. See Wiper Blade
Replacement 0303.
