NOTICE:
These mean there is something that could damage your vehicle.
In the notice area, we tell you about something that can damage your
vehicle. Many times, this damage would not be covered by your warranty,
and
it could be costly. But the notice will tell you what to do to help avoid
the damage.
When you read other manuals, you might see CAUTION and NOTICE
warnings in different colors or
in different words.
You’ll also see warning labels
on your vehicle. They use yellow for
cautions, blue for notices and the words CAUTION
or NOTICE.

the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

When you press UNLOCK, the driver’s door will unlock automatically. If
you press UNLOCK again within five seconds, all doors will unlock. All
doors will lock when
DOOR is pressed.
The endgate glass will unlock when the truck symbol button
is pressed.
Vehicles with automatic transmissions must have the transmission
in “P”
(Park). Vehicles with manual transmission must have the parking brake
engaged.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another transmitter from
unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can
be purchased through your dealer. Remember
to bring any remaining
transmitters with you when
you go to your dealer. When the dealer matches
the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, the remaining transmitters must
also be matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the
lost transmitter will
not unlock your vehicle.
You can match a transmitter to as many different vehicles as you own,
provided they are equipped
with exactly the same model system. (General
Motors offers several different models
of these systems on their vehicles.)
Each vehicle can have only two transmitters matched to it.
See your dealer
to match transmitters to another vehicle.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the batteries in your key chain transmitter should last
about two years.
You can tell the batteries are weak
if the transmitter won’t work at the
normal range in any location. If
you have to get close to your vehicle before
the transmitter works, it’s probably time
to change the batteries.

1. Without pushing the accelerator pedal, turn your ignition key to “Start.”
When
the engine starts, let go of the key. The idle speed will go down
as your engine gets warm.
NOTICE:
Holding your key in “Start” for longer than 15 seconds at a time
will cause your battery to be drained much sooner. And the
excessive heat can damage your starter motor.
2. If it doesn’t start right away, hold your key in “Start.” If it doesn’t start
in three seconds, push the accelerator pedal about one-quarter of the
way down for
12 more seconds, or until it starts.
3. If your engine still won’t start (or starts but then stops), it could be
flooded with too much gasoline. Try this:
Wait
15 seconds to let the starter motor cool down. Then push your
accelerator pedal all the way to the floor. Hold it there. Then, hold the
key
in “Start” for no more than ten seconds. This clears the extra
gasoline from the engine.
If the engine still doesn’t start, wait another 15 seconds and do it all
again..
When
the engine starts, let go of the key and the accelerator pedal.
j ~ NOTICE:
, Your engine is designed to work with the electronics in your
vehicle. If you add electrical parts
or accessories, you could
change the
way the fuel injection system operates. Before adding
electrical equipment, check with your dealer. If you don’t, your
engine might not perform properly.
If you ever have to have your vehicle towed, see the part of this
manual that tells how
to do it without damaging your vehicle.
See “Towing Your Vehicle” in the Index.

indicate that you have problems with
a generator drive belt, or another
electrical problem. Have
it checked right away. Driving while this light is on
could drain your battery.

you must drive a short distance with the light on, be certain to turn off all
your accessories, such as the radio and air conditioner.
