Indicator lights in the buttons show which mode you
are in. The indicator lights will come on briey when
you turn on the ignition and one will stay on. If the
lights do not come on, you should take your vehicle
to your dealer for service. An indicator light will ash
while shifting the transfer case. It will remain on
when the shift is complete. If for some reason the
transfer case cannot make a requested shift, it will
return to the last chosen setting.
If the SERVICE 4WD message stays on, you
should take your vehicle to your dealer for service.
See “Service 4WD message” underDriver
Information Center (DIC) on page 222.
Shifting between Four-Wheel High and
Four-Wheel-High Lock
With the vehicle traveling less than 40 mph
(64 km/h), press and release the Four-Wheel High
or Four-Wheel-Low Lock button. The indicator
light will ash while shifting. It will remain on when
the shift is complete.
It may be necessary to drive backwards for a
short distance of 25 feet (7.5 m) to get the lock
feature to disengage.
Shifting into Four-Wheel-Low Lock
To shift into Four-Wheel-Low Lock, the ignition
must be in RUN and the vehicle must be stopped or
moving less than 3 mph (5 km/h) with the
transmission in NEUTRAL (N). The preferred
method for shifting into Four-Wheel Low is to have
your vehicle moving 1 to 2 mph (1.6 to 3.2 km/h).
Press and release the Four-Wheel-Low Lock
button. You must wait for the Four-Wheel-Low Lock
indicator light to stop ashing and remain lit before
shifting your transmission in gear.
Notice:Shifting the transmission into gear
before the indicator light stops ashing could
cause damage to the transfer case. Always
wait until the indicator light stops ashing
before putting the transmission back in gear.
It is normal for your vehicle to have engagement
noise and bump when shifting between
Four-Wheel Low and Four-Wheel High or
Four-Wheel-High Lock ranges or from NEUTRAL
with the engine running.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp
Check Engine Light
Your vehicle has a
computer which
monitors operation
of the fuel, ignition,
and emission
control systems.
This system is called OBD II (On-Board
Diagnostics-Second Generation) and is intended
to assure that emissions are at acceptable
levels for the life of the vehicle, helping to produce
a cleaner environment. The check engine light
comes on to indicate that there is a problem and
service is required. Malfunctions often will be
indicated by the system before any problem is
apparent. This may prevent more serious damage
to your vehicle. This system is also designed to
assist your service technician in correctly
diagnosing any malfunction.Notice:If you keep driving your vehicle with
this light on, after awhile, your emission
controls may not work as well, your fuel
economy may not be as good, and your engine
may not run as smoothly. This could lead to
costly repairs that may not be covered by your
warranty.
Notice:Modications made to the engine,
transmission, exhaust, intake, or fuel system
of your vehicle or the replacement of the
original tires with other than those of the same
Tire Performance Criteria (TPC) can affect
your vehicle’s emission controls and may
cause this light to come on. Modications to
these systems could lead to costly repairs not
covered by your warranty. This may also
result in a failure to pass a required Emission
Inspection/Maintenance test. SeeAccessories
and Modifications on page 392.

A non-scrubbing action, wet-type cleaner which
uses a cassette with a fabric belt to clean the tape
head can be used. This type of cleaning cassette
will not eject on its own. A non-scrubbing action
cleaner may not clean as thoroughly as the
scrubbing type cleaner. The use of a non-scrubbing
action, dry-type cleaning cassette is not
recommended.
After the player is cleaned, press and hold the
eject button for ve seconds to reset the CLEAN
indicator. The radio will display --- or CLEANED to
show the indicator was reset.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound
quality may degrade over time. Always make sure
the cassette tape is in good condition before
the tape player is serviced.Care of Your CDs and DVDs
Handle CDs and DVDs carefully. Store them in
their original cases or other protective cases and
away from direct sunlight and dust. The CD
and DVD player scans the bottom surface of the
disc. If the surface of a CD or DVD is damaged,
such as cracked, broken, or scratched, the CD or
DVD will not play properly or not at all. If the
surface of a CD or DVD is soiled, take a soft, lint
free cloth or dampen a clean, soft cloth in a
mild, neutral detergent solution mixed with water,
and clean it. Make sure the wiping process
starts from the center to the edge. If a dampened
cloth was used to clean the disc, dry it with a
dry cotton cloth.
Do not touch the bottom side of a CD or DVD
while handling it; this could damage the surface.
Pick up CDs or DVDs by grasping the outer edges
or the edge of the hole and the outer edge.

Gasolines containing oxygenates, such as ethers
and ethanol, and reformulated gasolines may
be available in your area. General Motors
recommends that you use these gasolines if they
comply with the specications described earlier.
However, E85 (85% ethanol) and other fuels
containing more than 10% ethanol must not be
used in vehicles that were not designed for
those fuels.
Notice:Your vehicle was not designed for
fuel that contains methanol. Do not use
fuel containing methanol. It can corrode metal
parts in your fuel system and also damage
the plastic and rubber parts. That damage
would not be covered under your warranty.
Some gasolines that are not reformulated for low
emissions may contain an octane-enhancing
additive called methylcyclopentadienyl manganese
tricarbonyl (MMT); ask the attendant where you
buy gasoline whether the fuel contains MMT.General Motors recommends against the use of
such gasolines. Fuels containing MMT can reduce
the life of spark plugs and the performance of
the emission control system may be affected.
The malfunction indicator lamp may turn on.
If this occurs, return to your dealer for service.
Fuels in Foreign Countries
If you plan on driving in another country outside
the United States or Canada, the proper fuel may
be hard to nd. Never use leaded gasoline or
any other fuel not recommended in the previous
text on fuel. Costly repairs caused by use of
improper fuel would not be covered by your
warranty.
To check the fuel availability, ask an auto club, or
contact a major oil company that does business
in the country where you will be driving.

2. Lift the cover upward and set it aside.
3. Pull the air cleaner/lter up and out from the
air cleaner housing. Care should be taken to
dislodge as little dirt as possible.
4. Clean the air cleaner/lter sealing surfaces
and the housing.
5. Inspect or replace the engine air cleaner/lter.
6. Reinstall the cover and tighten the screws.
7. Reset the air lter restriction indicator, if
equipped, by pressing the top button on
the indicator.If your vehicle is not equipped with the air
lter restriction indicator, refer to the
Maintenance Schedule to determine when to
replace the engine air cleaner/lter. See
Additional Required Services on page 520.
{CAUTION:
Operating the engine with the air
cleaner/lter off can cause you or others
to be burned. The air cleaner not only
cleans the air; it helps to stop ames if
the engine backres. If it is not there and
the engine backres, you could be
burned. Do not drive with it off, and be
careful working on the engine with the air
cleaner/lter off.
Notice:If the air cleaner/lter is off, a backre
can cause a damaging engine re. And, dirt
can easily get into your engine, which will
damage it. Always have the air cleaner/lter in
place when you are driving.

Notice:
Using the wrong uid can badly damage
brake system parts. For example, just a
few drops of mineral-based oil, such
as engine oil, in the brake system can
damage brake system parts so badly that
they will have to be replaced. Do not
let someone put in the wrong kind of uid.
If you spill brake uid on your vehicle’s
painted surfaces, the paint nish can be
damaged. Be careful not to spill brake uid
on your vehicle. If you do, wash it off
immediately. SeeWashing Your Vehicle
on page 495.
Brake Wear
Your vehicle has four-wheel disc brakes.
Disc brake pads have built-in wear indicators that
make a high-pitched warning sound when the
brake pads are worn and new pads are needed.
The sound may come and go or be heard all
the time your vehicle is moving, except when you
are pushing on the brake pedal rmly.
{CAUTION:
The brake wear warning sound means
that soon the brakes will not work well.
That could lead to an accident. When you
hear the brake wear warning sound, have
your vehicle serviced.
Notice:Continuing to drive with worn-out
brake pads could result in costly brake repair.
