Engine Oil Life
System
When to Change
Engine Oil
This vehicle has a computer
system that indicates when to
change the engine oil and
filter. This is based on a
combination of factors which
include engine revolutions,
engine temperature, and miles
driven. Based on driving
conditions, the mileage at
which an oil change is
indicated can vary
considerably. For the oil life
system to work properly, the
system must be reset every
time the oil is changed.
When the system has
calculated that oil life has been
diminished, it indicates that an
oil change is necessary.
A CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON message comes on.
Change the oil as soon as
possible within the next
1 000 km (600 mi). It ispossible that, if driving under
the best conditions, the oil life
system might indicate that an
oil change is not necessary for
up to a year. The engine oil
and filter must be changed at
least once a year and at this
time the system must be
reset. Your dealer has trained
service people who will
perform this work and reset
the system. It is also important
to check the oil regularly over
the course of an oil drain
interval and keep it at the
proper level.
If the system is ever reset
accidentally, the oil must be
changed at 5 000 km
(3,000 mi) since the last oil
change. Remember to reset
the oil life system whenever
the oil is changed.
How to Reset the Engine
Oil Life System
Reset the system whenever
the engine oil is changed so
that the system can calculate
the next engine oil change. To
reset the system:
1. Using the DIC controls on the right side of the
steering wheel, display
REMAINING OIL LIFE on
the DIC. See Driver
Information Center (DIC)
0139. When remaining oil
life is low, the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the
display.
2. Press SEL on the DIC controls and hold SEL
down for a few seconds to
clear the CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON message and
reset the oil life at 100%.
Be careful not to reset the
oil life display accidentally
at any time other than
after the oil is changed.

until the tank is full. See
Engine Compartment
Overview0342 for reservoir
location.
Caution
.Do not use washer fluid
that contains any type of
water repellent coating.
This can cause the wiper
blades to chatter or skip.
.Do not use engine coolant
(antifreeze) in the
windshield washer. It can
damage the windshield
washer system and paint.
.Do not mix water with
ready-to-use washer fluid.
Water can cause the
solution to freeze and
damage the washer fluid
tank and other parts of
the washer system.
.When using concentrated
washer fluid, follow the
manufacturer instructions
for adding water.
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
.Fill the washer fluid tank
only three-quarters full
when it is very cold. This
allows for fluid expansion
if freezing occurs, which
could damage the tank if it
is completely full.
Brakes
Disc brake linings have built-in
wear indicators that make a
high-pitched warning sound
when the brake linings are
worn and new linings are
needed. The sound can come
and go or can be heard all the
time when the vehicle is
moving, except when applying
the brake pedal firmly.
{Warning
The brake wear warning
sound means that soon the
brakes will not work well.
That could lead to a crash.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
When the brake wear
warning sound is heard,
have the vehicle serviced.
Caution
Continuing to drive with
worn-out brake linings could
result in costly brake repairs.
Some driving conditions or
climates can cause a brake
squeal when the brakes are
first applied, clearing up
following several applications.
This does not mean something
is wrong with the brakes.
Properly torqued wheel nuts
are necessary to help prevent
brake pulsation. When tires
are rotated, inspect brake
linings for wear and evenly
tighten wheel nuts in the
proper sequence to torque
specifications. See Capacities
and Specifications 0438.

winter tire availability and
proper tire selection. Also, see
Buying New Tires0395.
With winter tires, there may
be decreased dry road
traction, increased road noise,
and shorter tread life. After
changing to winter tires, be
alert for changes in vehicle
handling and braking.
If using winter tires:
.Use tires of the same brand
and tread type on all four
wheel positions.
.Use only radial ply tires of
the same size, load range,
and speed rating as the
original equipment tires.
Winter tires with the same
speed rating as the original
equipment tires may not be
available for H, V, W, Y, and ZR
speed rated tires. If winter
tires with a lower speed rating
are chosen, never exceed the
tire's maximum speed
capability.
Summer Tires
This vehicle may come with
235/55R20 high performance
summer tires. These tires have
a special tread and compound
that are optimized for
maximum dry and wet road
performance. This special
tread and compound will have
decreased performance in
cold climates, and on ice and
snow. It is recommended that
winter tires be installed on the
vehicle if frequent driving at
temperatures below
approximately 5 °C (40 °F) or
on ice or snow covered roads
is expected. See Winter Tires
0 377.
Caution
High performance summer
tires have rubber
compounds that lose
flexibility and may develop
surface cracks in the tread
area at temperatures below
−7 °C (20 °F). Always store

Caution (Continued)
high performance summer
tires indoors and at
temperatures above −7 °C
(20 °F) when not in use. If the
tires have been subjected to
−7 °C (20 °F) or less, let them
warm up in a heated space
to at least 5 °C (40 °F) for
24 hours or more before
being installed or driving a
vehicle on which they are
installed. Do not apply heat
or blow heated air directly
on the tires. Always inspect
tires before use. See Tire
Inspection 0392.
Tire Sidewall Labeling
Useful information about a
tire is molded into its
sidewall. The examples
show a typical passenger
vehicle tire and a compact
spare tire sidewall.

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.
(6) Service Description
:
These characters

reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low
tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been
equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is
not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and
then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacement
or alternate tires or wheels on
the vehicle that prevent theTPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle
to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
See Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
0388.
See Radio Frequency
Statement 0452.
Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS). The TPMS is designed
to warn the driver when a low
tire pressure condition exists.
TPMS sensors are mounted
onto each tire and wheel
assembly, excluding the spare
tire and wheel assembly. The
TPMS sensors monitor the air
pressure in the tires and transmit the tire pressure
readings to a receiver located
in the vehicle.
When a low tire pressure
condition is detected, the
TPMS illuminates the low tire
pressure warning light on the
instrument cluster. If the
warning light comes on, stop
as soon as possible and inflate
the tires to the recommended
pressure shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
See Vehicle Load Limits
0247.
A message to check the
pressure in a specific tire
displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The
low tire pressure warning light
and the DIC warning message
come on at each ignition cycle
until the tires are inflated to
the correct inflation pressure.
