In Brief 1-15
Performance and
Maintenance Traction Control/
Electronic Stability
Control The vehicle has a Traction Control
System (TCS) and an Electronic
Stability Control system that assists
with directional control of the vehicle
in difficult driving conditions. Both
systems turn on automatically every
time the vehicle is started. .
To turn off the TCS and
Electronic Stability Control
systems, press and release the
TCS/Electronic Stability Control
button
g on the instrument
panel to the left of the steering
wheel. The
g indicator will come
on in the instrument cluster. .
Press and release the TCS/
Electronic Stability Control
button again to turn the TCS and
Electronic Stability Control systems back on. The
gindicator will turn off in the
instrument cluster.
See Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control on page 9-25 .
Tire Pressure Monitor This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).
The low tire pressure warning light
alerts to a significant loss in
pressure of one of the vehicle's
tires. 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 on page 9-9 .
The warning light will remain on until
the tire pressure is corrected. The low tire pressure warning light
may come on in cool weather when
the vehicle is first started, and then
turn off as the vehicle is driven. This
may be an early indicator that the
tire pressures are getting low and
the tires need to be inflated to the
proper pressure.
The TPMS does not replace normal
monthly tire maintenance. Maintain
the correct tire pressures.
See Tire Pressure Monitor System
on page 10-36 .
Driving for Better Fuel
Economy Driving habits can affect fuel
mileage. Here are some driving tips
to get the best fuel economy
possible. .
Avoid fast starts and accelerate
smoothly. .
Brake gradually and avoid
abrupt stops.

7707496) - 2015 - CRC - 11/26/14
Seats and Restraints 3-21prevent the driver from seeing out of
the windshield or being able to steer
the vehicle, nor does it prevent
people from leaving the vehicle.
{ WarningWhen an airbag inflates, there
may be dust in the air. This dust
could cause breathing problems
for people with a history of
asthma or other breathing trouble.
To avoid this, everyone in the
vehicle should get out as soon as
it is safe to do so. If you have
breathing problems but cannot
get out of the vehicle after an
airbag inflates, then get fresh air
by opening a window or a door.
If you experience breathing
problems following an airbag
deployment, you should seek
medical attention. { WarningA crash severe enough to inflate
the airbags may have also
damaged important functions in
the vehicle, such as the fuel
system, brake and steering
systems, etc. Even if the vehicle
appears to be drivable after a
moderate crash, there may be
concealed damage that could
make it difficult to safely operate
the vehicle.
Use caution if you should attempt
to restart the engine after a crash
has occurred.
In many crashes severe enough to
inflate the airbag, windshields are
broken by vehicle deformation.
Additional windshield breakage may
also occur from the front outboard
passenger airbag. .
Airbags are designed to inflate
only once. After an airbag
inflates, you will need some new parts for the airbag system.
If you do not get them, the
airbag system will not be there
to help protect you in another
crash. A new system will include
airbag modules and possibly
other parts. The service manual
for the vehicle covers the need
to replace other parts. .
The vehicle has a crash sensing
and diagnostic module which
records information after a
crash. See Vehicle Data
Recording and Privacy on
page 13-14 and Event Data
Recorders on page 13-14 . .
Let only qualified technicians
work on the airbag systems.
Improper service can mean that
an airbag system will not work
properly. See your dealer for
service.

Speedometer The speedometer shows the vehicle
speed in kilometers per hour (km/h)
and miles per hour (mph).
Odometer The odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven, in either
kilometers or miles.
Trip Odometer The trip odometer shows how far
the vehicle has been driven since
the trip odometer was last reset. Press the trip odometer reset stem
on the cluster to switch between the
odometer, trip odometer A, and trip
odometer B.
To reset each trip odometer to zero,
press and hold the trip odometer
reset stem. Only the trip odometer
that is currently displayed will be
reset.
Tachometer The tachometer displays the engine
speed in revolutions per
minute (rpm).
{ Caution
If the engine is operated with the
rpm ’ s in the warning area at the
high end of the tachometer, the
vehicle could be damaged, and
the damage would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Do not
operate the engine with the rpm ’ s
in the warning area. Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge indicates about how
much fuel is left when the ignition is
turned to ON.
When the tank nears empty, the low
fuel warning light may come on or
the segments of the gauge may
blink. There is still a little fuel left,
but the vehicle's fuel tank should be
filled soon. See Low Fuel Warning
Light on page 5-18 .
An arrow on the fuel gauge
indicates the side of the vehicle on
which the fuel door is located.

Black plate (9,1)Chevrolet City Express Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-
7707496) - 2015 - CRC - 11/26/14
Instruments and Controls 5-9Here are four things that some
owners ask about. None of these
show a problem with the fuel gauge: .
At the service station, the gas
pump shuts off before the gauge
reads full. .
It takes a little more or less fuel
to fill up than the gauge
indicated. For example, the
gauge may have indicated the
tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than
half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank. .
The indicator moves a little when
turning a corner or speeding up. .
The gauge goes back to empty
when the ignition is turned off. Safety Belt Reminders
The light and chime remind you to
fasten your safety belts. The light
illuminates when the ignition is
placed in ON or START and remains
illuminated until the driver ’ s safety
belt is fastened. At the same time,
the chime sounds for about
six seconds unless the driver ’ s
safety belt is securely fastened.
The safety belt warning light may
also illuminate if the front
passenger ’ s safety belt is not
fastened when the front passenger
seat is occupied. For
seven seconds after the ignition
switch is placed in ON, the system
does not activate the warning light
for the front passenger. { WarningIf the safety belt warning light
stays on continuously while the
ignition is turned ON with all
doors closed and all safety belts
fastened, it may indicate a
malfunction in the system. Have
the system checked by your
dealer.
See Safety Belts on page 3-8 .
Airbag Readiness Light This light shows if there is an
electrical problem with the airbag
system. The system check includes
the airbag sensor(s), passenger
sensing system, the pretensioners,
the airbag modules, the wiring, and
the crash sensing and diagnostic
module. For more information on the
airbag system, see Airbag System
on page 3-15 .
