SHIFT TO PARK: This message indicates that the
vehicle is not in PARK (P) when the engine is being
turned off. The vehicle will be in accessory mode. Once
the shifter is moved to PARK (P), the vehicle will turn off.
STABILITRAK ACTIVE: You may see the
STABILITRAK ACTIVE message on the DIC. It means
that an advanced, computer-controlled system has
come on to help your vehicle continue to go in
the direction in which you are steering. This stability
enhancement system activates when the computer
senses that your vehicle is just starting to spin, as it
might if you hit a patch of ice or other slippery spot
on the road. When the system is on, you may hear
a noise or feel a vibration in the brake pedal.
This is normal.
When the STABILITRAK ACTIVE message is on, you
should continue to steer in the direction you want to go.
The system is designed to help you in bad weather
or other difficult driving situations by making the
most of whatever road conditions will permit. If the
STABILITRAK ACTIVE message comes on, you will
know that something has caused your vehicle to start to
spin, so you should consider slowing down. A single
chime will also sound when this message is displayed.
STABILITRAK READY: If this message appears
and a chime sounds, the system has completed the
functional check of the StabiliTrak
®
System.
STABILITRAK WARMING: When you first start your
vehicle and drive away, especially during cold winter
weather, the STABILITRAK WARMING message may
be displayed in the DIC along with a chime and the
traction control warning light. This is normal. You can
acknowledge this message by pressing the RESET
button. The StabiliTrak
®
performance is affected until the
STABILITRAK READY message is displayed in the
DIC, which can take up to 15 minutes.
SVC (Service) TIRE MONITOR: If this message comes
on, a part on the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) is not
working properly. If you drive your vehicle while any of the
four sensors are missing or inoperable, the warning will
come on in approximately 10 minutes. If all four sensors
are missing, the warning will come on in approximately
15 to 20 minutes. All the sensors would be missing, for
example, if you put different wheels on your vehicle
without transferring the sensors. If the warning comes on
and stays on, there may be a problem with the TPM.
See your GM dealer.
TOO COLD TO MOVE TOP: This message will display
when the retractable hardtop button is pressed and the
hardtop pump motor temperature is below
−
4°F (
−
20°C).
Wait for the hardtop pump motor to warm up before using
the retractable hardtop.
