9-22 Driving and Operating
Cell phone chargers can interfere
with the operation of the Keyless
Access System. Battery chargers
should not be plugged in when
starting or turning off the engine.
To start the vehicle, do the following:
1. For vehicles with an automatictransmission, with your foot
on the brake pedal, press the
START button located on the
instrument panel. For vehicles
with a manual transmission, you
must also press in the clutch
pedal while pressing the START
button.
If there is not a keyless access
transmitter in the vehicle or if
there is something causing
interference with it, the DIC will
display NO FOBS DETECTED.
See Key and Lock Messages on
page 5‑42 for more information. 2. When the engine begins
cranking, let go of the button and
the engine cranks automatically
until it starts. If the battery in the
keyless access transmitter is
weak, the DIC displays FOB
BATTERY LOW. You can still
drive the vehicle.
See “Battery Replacement”
under Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System Operation on
page 2‑3 for more information.
If the fob battery is dead, you
need to insert the fob into
the fob slot to enable engine
starting. See “NO FOBS
DETECTED” underKey and
Lock Messages on page 5‑42.
3. Do not race the engine immediately after starting it.
Operate the engine and
transmission gently until the
oil warms up and lubricates
all moving parts. 4. If the engine does not start and
no DIC message is displayed,
wait 15 seconds before trying
again to let the cranking motor
cool down.
If the engine does not start after
5-10 seconds, especially in very
cold weather (below −18°C
or 0°F), it could be flooded with
too much gasoline. Try pushing
the accelerator pedal all the way
to the floor while cranking for up
to 15 seconds maximum. Wait at
least 15 seconds between each
try, to allow the cranking motor
to cool down. When the engine
starts, let go of the accelerator.
If the vehicle starts briefly but
then stops again, repeat these
steps. This clears the extra
gasoline from the engine.

materials away from fuel. Do not
leave the fuel pump unattended
when refueling the vehicle. This is
against the law in some places.

by shutting off the pump or by
notifying the station attendant.
Leave the area immediately.
Notice: If you need a new fuel
cap, be sure to get the right type.
Your dealer can get one for you.
If you get the wrong type, it may
not fit properly. This may cause
the malfunction indicator lamp to
light and may damage the fuel
tank and emissions system. See
Malfunction Indicator Lamp on
page 5‑18.
Filling a Portable Fuel
Container
{WARNING
Never fill a portable fuel container
while it is in the vehicle. Static

vapor. You can be badly burned
and the vehicle damaged if this
occurs. To help avoid injury to
you and others:
.Dispense fuel only into
approved containers.
.Do not fill a container while
it is inside a vehicle, in a
vehicle's trunk, pickup bed,
or on any surface other than
the ground.
(Continued)

with the inside of the fill
opening before operating the
nozzle. Contact should be
maintained until the filling is
complete.
.Do not smoke while
pumping fuel.
.Do not use a cellular phone
while pumping fuel.

10-60 Vehicle Care
The shorter the distance you drive
and the slower the speed, the
greater the chance that the tire will
not have to be replaced. As soon
as possible, contact the nearest
authorized GM or run-flat servicing
facility for inspection and repair or
replacement. When a tire is filled
with air, it provides a cushion
between the road and the wheel.
Because you will not have this
cushion when driving on a deflated
run-flat tire, try to avoid potholes
and other road hazards that could
damage the tire and/or wheel
beyond repair. When a tire has been
damaged, or if you have driven any
distance on a run-flat tire, check
with an authorized run-flat tire
service center to determine whether
the tire can be repaired or should be
replaced. To maintain your vehicle's
run-flat feature, all replacement tires
must be run-flat tires.To locate the nearest GM or run-flat
servicing facility, call Roadside
Assistance. For phone numbers
and Roadside Service details see
Roadside Assistance Program
(United States and Canada) on
page 13‑8
orRoadside Assistance
Program (Mexico) on page 13‑10.
The valve stems on your run-flat
tires have sensors that are part of
the Tire Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS). See Tire Pressure Monitor
System on page 10‑68. These
sensors contain batteries which are
designed to last for 10 years under
normal driving conditions. See your
dealer if you ever need to have a
wheel replaced, or if the sensors
ever need replacement. Notice:
Using liquid sealants
can damage the tire valves and
tire pressure monitor sensors
in the vehicle's run-flat tires.
This damage would not be
covered by warranty. Do not use
liquid sealants in the vehicle's
run-flat tires.
Low-Profile Tires
Low‐Profile Performance Tire
The original equipment tires on
your vehicle are classified as
low‐profile performance tires.
These tires are designed for
very responsive driving on wet
or dry pavement. You may also
notice more road noise with
low‐profile tires and that they
tend to wear faster.

Customer Satisfaction
Procedure (United States
and Canada)
Your satisfaction and goodwill are
important to your dealer and to
Chevrolet. Normally, any concerns
with the sales transaction or the
operation of the vehicle will be
resolved by the dealer's sales or
service departments. Sometimes,
however, despite the best intentions
of all concerned, misunderstandings
can occur. If your concern has not
been resolved to your satisfaction,
the following steps should be taken:
STEP ONE: Discuss your concern
with a member of dealership
management. Normally, concerns
can be quickly resolved at that level.
If the matter has already been
reviewed with the sales, service,
or parts manager, contact the owner
of the dealership or the general
manager.

13-2 Customer Information
STEP TWO:If after contacting a
member of dealership management,
it appears your concern cannot be
resolved by the dealership without
further help, in the U.S., call the
Chevrolet Customer Assistance
Center at 1-800-222-1020. In
Canada, call General Motors of
Canada Customer Communication
Centre at 1-800-263-3777 (English),
or 1-800-263-7854 (French).
We encourage you to call the
toll-free number in order to give
your inquiry prompt attention.
Have the following information
available to give the Customer
Assistance representative:
.Vehicle Identification Number
(VIN). This is available from
the vehicle registration or title,
or the plate at the top left of the
instrument panel and visible
through the windshield.
.Dealership name and location.
.Vehicle delivery date and
present mileage. When contacting Chevrolet,
remember that your concern will
likely be resolved at a dealer's
facility. That is why we suggest
following Step One first.
STEP THREE
—U.S. Owners:
Both General Motors and your
dealer are committed to making
sure you are completely satisfied
with your new vehicle. However,
if you continue to remain unsatisfied
after following the procedure
outlined in Steps One and Two,
you can file with the Better Business
Bureau (BBB) Auto Line
®Program
to enforce your rights.
The BBB Auto Line Program is an
out of court program administered
by the Council of Better Business
Bureaus to settle automotive
disputes regarding vehicle repairs or
the interpretation of the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. Although you may
be required to resort to this informal
dispute resolution program prior
to filing a court action, use of the
program is free of charge and your case will generally be heard within
40 days. If you do not agree with
the decision given in your case,
you may reject it and proceed with
any other venue for relief available
to you.
You may contact the BBB Auto
Line Program using the toll-free
telephone number or write them
at the following address:
