AUX CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2010 2.G Owner's Manual

Cleaning the RSE Overhead Console
When cleaning the RSE overhead console surface, use
only a clean cloth dampened with clean water.
Cleaning the Video Screen
When cleaning the video screen, use only a clean cloth
dampened with clean water. Use care when directly
touching or cleaning the screen, as damage could
result.
Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
Vehicles with this feature allow the rear seat
passengers to listen to and control any of the music
sources: radio, CDs, DVDs, or other auxiliary sources.
However, the rear seat passengers can only control the
music sources the front seat passengers are not
listening to (except on some radios where dual control
is allowed). For example, rear seat passengers can
control and listen to a CD through the headphones,
while the driver listens to the radio through the front
speakers. The rear seat passengers have control of the
volume for each set of headphones.The radio functionality is controlled by both the RSA
and the front radio. Only one band can be tuned to at
one time. Changing the band on the RSA or the front
radio will change the band on the other system, if they
are both sourced to the radio.
The RSA functions can be used even while the main
radio is off. The front audio system will display the
headphone icon when the RSA is on, and will disappear
from the display when it is off.
Audio can be heard through wired headphones (not
included) plugged into the jacks on the RSA. If the
vehicle has this feature, audio can also be heard on
Channel 2 of the wireless headphones.
Depending on the audio system, the rear speakers may
continue to play when the RSA audio is active through
the headphones.
To listen to an iPod or portable audio device through the
RSA, attach the iPod or portable audio device to the
front auxiliary input (if available), located on the front
audio system. Turn the iPod on, then choose the front
auxiliary input with the RSA SRCE button.

Press and hold either seek arrow until the display
flashes, to tune to an individual station. The display
stops flashing after the buttons have not been pushed
for more than two seconds. This function is inactive,
with some radios, if the front seat passengers are
listening to the radio.
While listening to a disc, press the left seek arrow to go
back to the start of the current track or chapter (if more
than ten seconds have played). Press the right seek
arrow to go the next track or chapter on the disc. This
function is inactive, with some radios, if the front seat
passengers are listening to the disc.

You can add heavier equipment on the front of the
vehicle if you compensate for it by carrying fewer
passengers, less cargo, or by positioning cargo toward
the rear. This has the effect of reducing the load on the
front. However, the front GAWR, rear GAWR, and the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) must never be
exceeded.
{WARNING:
On some vehicles that have certain front mounted
equipment, such as a snow plow, it may be
possible to load the front axle to the front gross
axle weight rating (GAWR) but not have enough
weight on the rear axle to have proper braking
performance. If your brakes can not work properly,
you could have a crash. To help your brakes work
properly when a snow plow is installed, always
follow the snow plow manufacturer or installer's
recommendation for rear ballast to ensure a
proper front and rear weight distribution ratio,
even though the actual front weight may be less
than the front GAWR, and the total vehicle weight
is less than the gross vehicle weight rating
(GVWR). Maintaining a proper front and rear
weight distribution ratio is necessary to provide
proper braking performance.Total vehicle reserve capacity is the difference between
the GVWR and the weight of the truck with full fuel and
passengers. It is the amount of weight that can be
added to the vehicle before reaching the GVWR. Keep
in mind that reserve capacity numbers are intended as
a guide when selecting the amount of equipment or
cargo the truck can carry. If unsure of the vehicle's front,
rear, or total weight, go to a weigh station and weigh the
vehicle. Your dealer can also help with this.
The total vehicle reserve capacity for the vehicle can be
found in the lower right corner of the Certification/Tire
label as shown previously.
See your dealer for additional advice and information
about using a snow plow on the vehicle. Also, see
Loading the Vehicle on page 5‑29.
Emergency Roof Lamp Provisions
Vehicles with the RPO VYU snow plow prep package
also have an emergency roof lamp provision package,
RPO TRW. Wiring for the emergency roof lamp is
provided above the overhead console. See
Auxiliary
Roof-Mounted Lamp
on page 4‑14for switch location.

Heavy-DutyTrailer Wiring Harness
Package
For vehicles equipped with heavy duty trailering, the
harness is connected to a bracket on the hitch platform.
The seven-wire harness contains the following trailer
circuits:
.Yellow: Left Stop/Turn Signal
.Dark Green: Right Stop/Turn Signal
.Brown: Taillamps
.White: Ground
.Light Green: Back-up Lamps
.Red: Battery Feed*
.Dark Blue: Trailer Brake*
*The fuses for these two circuits are installed in the
underhood electrical center, but the wires are not
connected. They should be connected by your dealer or
a qualified service center. The fuse and wire for the
ITBC is factory installed and connected if the vehicle is
equipped with an ITBC. The fuse for the battery feed is
not required if the vehicle has an auxiliary battery. If the
vehicle does not have an auxiliary battery, have your
dealer or authorized service center install the
required fuse.
If charging a remote (non-vehicle) battery, press the
Tow/Haul mode button, if equipped, located at the end
of the shift lever. This will boost the vehicle system
voltage and properly charge the battery. If the trailer is
too light for Tow/Haul mode, or the vehicle is not
equipped with Tow/Haul, turn on the headlamps as a
second way to boost the vehicle system and charge the
battery.

Electric Brake Control Wiring
Provisions
These wiring provisions are included with the vehicle as
part of the trailer wiring package. These provisions are
for an electric brake controller. The instrument panel
contains blunt cut wires behind the steering column for
the trailer brake controller. The harness contains the
following wires:
.Dark Blue: Brake Signal to Trailer Connector
.Red/Black: Battery
.Light Blue/White: Brake Switch
.White: Ground
It should be installed by your dealer or a qualified
service center.
If the vehicle is equipped with an ITBC, the blunt cuts
exist, but are not connected further in the harness. If an
aftermarket trailer brake controller is installed, the ITBC
must be disconnected. Do not power both ITBC and
aftermarket controllers to control the trailer brakes at the
same time.
Auxiliary Battery
The auxiliary battery provision can be used to supply
electrical power to additional equipment that may be
added, such as a slide-in camper. If the vehicle has this
provision, this relay will be located on the drivers side of
the vehicle, next to the underhood electrical center.
Be sure to follow the proper installation instructions that
are included with any electrical equipment that is
installed.
Notice: Leaving electrical equipment on for
extended periods will drain the battery. Always
turn off electrical equipment when not in use
and do not use equipment that exceeds the
maximum amperage rating for the auxiliary battery
provision.
