Windshield
Replacement
HUD System
If equipped, the windshield is
part of the HUD system. If the
windshield must be replaced,
get one that is designed for
HUD or the HUD image may
look out of focus.
Driver Assistance
Systems
When a windshield
replacement is needed and the
vehicle is equipped with a
front-looking camera sensor
for the Driver Assistance
Systems, the windshield must
be installed according to GM
specifications for these systems to work properly. If it
is not, there may be
unexpected behavior and/or
messages from these
systems.
Acoustic Windshield
The vehicle is equipped with
an acoustic windshield. If the
windshield needs to be
replaced, be sure to get an
acoustic windshield so you will
continue to have the benefits
an acoustic windshield can
provide.
Gas Strut(s)
Your vehicle may be equipped
with gas strut(s) to provide
assistance in lifting and
holding open the hood/trunk/
liftgate system in full open
position.
{Warning
If the gas struts that hold
open the hood, trunk, and/or
liftgate fail, you or others
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
could be seriously injured.
Take the vehicle to your
dealer for service
immediately. Visually inspect
the gas struts for signs of
wear, cracks, or other
damage periodically. Check
to make sure the hood/
trunk/liftgate is held open
with enough force. If struts
are failing to hold the hood/
trunk/liftgate, do not
operate. Have the vehicle
serviced.
Caution
Do not apply tape or hang
any objects from gas struts.
Also do not push down or
pull on gas struts. This may
cause damage to the
vehicle.

2. Locate the fuse puller inthe engine compartment
fuse block.3. Use the fuse puller toremove the fuse from the
top or side, as shown
above.
4. If the fuse must be replaced immediately,
borrow a replacement fuse
with the same amperage
from the fuse block.
Choose a vehicle feature
that is not needed to
safely operate the vehicle.
Repeat Steps 2-3.
5. Insert the replacement fuse into the empty slot of
the blown fuse.
At the next opportunity, see
your dealer to replace the
blown fuse.
Headlamp Wiring
An electrical overload may
cause the lamps to go on and
off, or in some cases to remain
off. Have the headlamp wiring
checked right away if the
lamps go on and off or
remain off.
Windshield Wipers
If the wiper motor overheats
due to heavy snow or ice, the
windshield wipers will stop
until the motor cools and will
then restart.
Although the circuit is
protected from electrical
overload, overload due to
heavy snow or ice may cause
wiper linkage damage. Always
clear ice and heavy snow from
the windshield before using
the windshield wipers.
If the overload is caused by an
electrical problem and not
snow or ice, be sure to get it
fixed.
Fuses and Circuit
Breakers
The wiring circuits in the
vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination
of fuses and circuit breakers.
This greatly reduces the
chance of damage caused by
electrical problems.

(5) Tire Inflation:The
temporary use tire or
compact spare tire should
be inflated to 420 kPa
(60 psi). For more
information on tire
pressure and inflation see
Tire Pressure 0372.
(6) Tire Size
:A
combination of letters and
numbers define a tire's
width, height, aspect ratio,
construction type, and
service description. The
letter “T”as the first
character in the tire size
means the tire is for
temporary use only.
(7) TPC Spec (Tire
Performance Criteria
Specification)
:Original
equipment tires designed
to GM's specific tire
performance criteria have a
TPC specification code
molded onto the sidewall. GM's TPC specifications
meet or exceed all federal
safety guidelines.
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.
(3) Aspect Ratio
:A 2-digit
number that indicates the
tire height-to-width
measurements. For
example, if the tire size
aspect ratio is 75, as
shown in item (3) of the
illustration, it would mean
that the tire's sidewall is
75 percent as high as it
is wide.
(4) Construction Code
:A
letter code is used to
indicate the type of ply
construction in the tire. The
letter "R" means radial ply
construction; the letter "D"
means diagonal or bias ply
construction.
(5) Rim Diameter
:
Diameter of the wheel in
inches.

.Reduced fuel economy
for internal combustion
engine vehicles
.Reduced range for
electric vehicles
Overinflated tires, or tires
that have too much air,
can result in:
.Unusual wear
.Poor handling
.Rough ride
.Needless damage from
road hazards
The Tire and Loading
Information label on the
vehicle indicates the
original equipment tires
and the correct cold tire
inflation pressures. The recommended pressure is
the minimum air pressure
needed to support the
vehicle's maximum load
carrying capacity. See
Vehicle Load Limits
0242.
How the vehicle is loaded
affects vehicle handling
and ride comfort. Never
load the vehicle with more
weight than it was
designed to carry.
When to Check
Check the pressure of the
tires once a month or more.
Do not forget the spare,
if the vehicle has one. The
compact spare cold tire
pressure should be at
420 kPa (60 psi). See
Compact Spare Tire 0404. How to Check
Use a good quality
pocket-type gauge to
check tire pressure. Proper
tire inflation cannot be
determined by looking at
the tire. Check the tire
inflation pressure when the
tires are cold, meaning the
vehicle has not been driven
for at least three hours or
no more than 1.6 km (1 mi).
Remove the valve cap from
the tire valve stem. Press
the tire gauge firmly onto
the valve to get a pressure
measurement. If the cold
tire inflation pressure
matches the recommended
pressure on the Tire and
Loading Information label,
no further adjustment is
necessary. If the inflation

environment (shoulder slope,
road debris, etc.). Removal of
some weight may improve the
ability to fit the jack under the
vehicle at the correct jacking
location.
{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. Put the vehicle in P (Park).
3. Turn the vehicle off and do not restart the vehicle
while it is raised.
4. Do not allow passengers to remain in the vehicle.
