Theft-Deterrent Feature
Your vehicle's radio has an electronically coded security
system. The system recognizes the vehicle which the
radio has been installed. If the radio is kept in the
vehicle, the PIN should not be required, even if the
battery or the radio has been removed and reinstalled.
If the link between your vehicle and the radio is
disrupted, the radio will prompt you for a four-digit PIN
code to be entered.
The PIN is supplied on the security card. As the pin is
the only means of enabling operation of the radio, place
the security card in a safe place. Do not leave the
security card in the glovebox. The PIN should also be
written down and kept with other important documents.
If the security card is lost and the PIN is not recorded,
the PIN can be requested from your GM dealer,
after supplying proof of ownership. There may be a
charge for this service.
When the radio and vehicle are turned off, the blinking
red light indicates that the radio is armed.
Security Release Procedure
To type in the PIN code, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition to ON.
2. Turn the radio on. CODE____will appear on the
display.
3. Use the preset buttons to enter the PIN code.
If the wrong PIN code is entered, the radio will display
CODE ERR WAIT.
After a few seconds, the radio will display
CODE 2____,indicating that this is the second
attempt. The correct code should now be entered.
After three attempts, the radio will display
LOCK OUT 1 HR. After 1 hour, the radio will allow
another three attempts to enter the PIN.

Notice:If you use abrasive cleaners when cleaning
glass surfaces on your vehicle, you could scratch
the glass and/or cause damage to the integrated
radio antenna and the rear window defogger. When
cleaning the glass on your vehicle, use only a
soft cloth and glass cleaner.
Many cleaners contain solvents that may become
concentrated in your vehicle's breathing space. Before
using cleaners, read and adhere to all safety
instructions on the label. While cleaning your vehicle's
interior, maintain adequate ventilation by opening
your vehicle's doors and windows.
Dust may be removed from small buttons and knobs
using a small brush with soft bristles.
Your GM dealer has a product for cleaning your
vehicle's glass. Should it become necessary, you can
also obtain a product from your GM dealer to remove
odors from your vehicle's upholstery.Do not clean your vehicle using the following cleaners
or techniques:
·Never use a knife or any other sharp object to
remove a soil from any interior surface.
·Never use a stiff brush. It can cause damage to
your vehicle's interior surfaces.
·Never apply heavy pressure or rub aggressively
with a cleaning cloth. Use of heavy pressure
can damage your interior and does not improve the
effectiveness of soil removal.
·Use only mild, neutral-pH soaps. Avoid laundry
detergents or dishwashing soaps with degreasers.
Using too much soap will leave a residue that
leaves streaks and attracts dirt. For liquid cleaners,
about 20 drops per gallon (3.78 L) of water is a
good guide.
·Do not heavily saturate your upholstery while
cleaning.
·Damage to your vehicle's interior may result from
the use of many organic solvents such as naptha,
alcohol, etc.
