coolant capacity GMC SAVANA PASSENGER 2010 Owners Manual

Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
This gage shows the engine coolant temperature. It also
provides an indicator of how hard the vehicle is
working. During a majority of the operation, the gage
will read 100°C (210°F) or less. If the vehicle is pulling a
load or going up hills, it is normal for the temperature
to fluctuate and approach the 122°C (250°F) mark. If the
gage reaches the 125°C (260°F) mark, it indicates
that the cooling system is working beyond its capacity.
SeeEngine Overheating on page 6-33.

For vehicles with a tire
pressure monitoring
system, this light comes on
briefly when the engine
is started. It provides
information about
tire pressures and the Tire

tire. Air pressure is expressed in pounds per
square inch (psi) or kilopascal (kPa).
Accessory Weight
:This means the combined
weight of optional accessories. Some examples of
optional accessories are, automatic transmission,
power steering, power brakes, power windows,
power seats, and air conditioning.
Aspect Ratio
:The relationship of a tire’s height
to its width.
Belt
:A rubber coated layer of cords that is

:A pneumatic tire in which the plies
are laid at alternate angles less than 90 degrees
to the centerline of the tread.Cold Tire Pressure
:The amount of air pressure
in a tire, measured in pounds per square
inch (psi) or kilopascals (kPa) before a tire has
built up heat from driving. SeeInation - Tire
