Vehicles with anengine heater should be plugged inat least four hours before starting.An internal thermostat in theplug-end of the cord may exist,which will prevent engine coolantheater operation at temperaturesabove✓18 °C (0 °F).
If the vehicle has a diesel engine,see the Duramax dieselsupplement.
To Use the Engine Coolant
Heater
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap theelectrical cord. The cord issecured to the driver sidefender with a clip, next to theengine compartment fuseblock. Carefully remove thewire tie that bundles theelectrical plug. Do not cut theelectrical cord.

inflation pressure is high, press
on the metal stem in the center
of the tire valve to release air.
Re-check the tire pressure with
the tire gauge.
Put the valve caps back on the
valve stems to keep out dirt and
moisture and prevent leaks. Use
only valve caps designed for the
vehicle by GM. TPMS sensors
could be damaged and would
not be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
Tire Pressure for
High-Speed Operation
{Warning
Driving at high speeds, 160 km/h
(100 mph) or higher, puts
additional strain on tires.
Sustained high-speed driving
causes excessive heat buildup
and can cause sudden tire failure.
This could cause a crash, and
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
you or others could be killed.
Some high-speed rated tires
require inflation pressure
adjustment for high-speed
operation. When speed limits and
road conditions allow the vehicle
to be driven at high speeds, make
sure the tires are rated for
high-speed operation, are in
excellent condition, and are set to
the correct cold tire inflation
pressure for the vehicle load.
Vehicles with P275/55R20 orP285/50R20 size tires requireinflation pressure adjustment whendriving the vehicle at speeds of160 km/h (100 mph) or higher. Setthe cold tire inflation pressure to20 kPa (3 psi) above therecommended cold tire pressureshown on the Tire and LoadingInformation label.
Return the tires to therecommended cold tire inflationpressure when high-speed drivinghas ended. SeeVehicle Load Limits0259andTire Pressure0405.
Tire Pressure Monitor
System
The Tire Pressure Monitor System(TPMS) uses radio and sensortechnology to check tire pressurelevels. The TPMS sensors monitorthe air pressure in your tires andtransmit tire pressure readings to areceiver located in the vehicle.
Each tire, including the spare (ifprovided), should be checkedmonthly when cold and inflated tothe inflation pressure recommendedby the vehicle manufacturer on thevehicle placard or tire inflationpressure label. (If your vehicle hastires of a different size than the sizeindicated on the vehicle placard ortire inflation pressure label, youshould determine the proper tireinflation pressure for those tires.)
