Driving and Operating 215
Caution
Do not use fuel containing
methanol. It can corrode metal
parts in the fuel system and also
damage plastic and rubber parts.
That damage would not be
covered under the vehicle
warranty.
Some gasolines that are not
reformulated for low emissions can
contain an octane-enhancing
additive called
methylcyclopentadienyl manganese
tricarbonyl (MMT). Do not use
gasolines with MMT as they can
reduce spark plug life and affect
emission control system
performance. The malfunction
indicator lamp may turn on. If this
occurs, see your dealer for service.
Diesel Engine
Diesel engine must be operated
only on commercially available
diesel fuel meeting the
specifications of DIN EN 590. Do
not use marine diesel oils, heating
oils or entirely or partially
plant-based diesel fuels, such as
rape seed oil or bio diesel, Aquazole
and similar diesel-water emulsions.
The flow and filterability of diesel
fuel are temperature-dependent.
Diesel fuels with improved
low-temperature properties are
therefore available on the market
during the winter months. Make sure
that you fill the tank with winter fuel
before the start of the cold weather
season.
Fuel Additives
Gasoline should contain detergent
additives that help prevent engine
and fuel system deposits from
forming. Clean fuel injectors and
intake valves will allow the emission
control system to work properly.
Some gasoline does not contain
sufficient quantities of additives to
keep fuel injectors and intake valves
clean. To make up for this lack of
detergency, consult your dealer for
the GM approved additive
treatment. Add this additive to the
fuel tank at every engine oil change
or every 15 000 km (9,000 mi),
whichever occurs first.
Filling the Tank
{
Warning
Fuel vapors and fuel fires burn
violently and can cause injury or
death.
.
To help avoid injuries to you
and others, read and follow
all the instructions on the
fuel pump island.
. Turn off the engine when
refueling.
. Keep sparks, flames, and
smoking materials away
from fuel.
. Do not leave the fuel pump
unattended.
.
Do not use a cell phone
while refueling.
. Do not re-enter the vehicle
while pumping fuel.

Fuel for Diesel Engines
Only use diesel fuel that complies
with SANS 342.
GM recommends the use of Low
Sulphur Diesel (50 ppm or less).
Standard Grade Diesel (500 ppm)
should only be used if Low Sulphur
Diesel is not available.
Note: the use of Low Sulphur
Diesel (50 ppm or less) has an
environmental benefit as it improves
vehicle emissions and it also has
a vehicle benefit as it improves the
long term durability of the engine.
Do not use marine diesel oils,
heating oils or diesel-water
emulsions. Diesel fuels must not be
diluted with fuels for petrol engines.
The flow and filterability of diesel fuel
are temperature-dependent.
Diesel fuels with improves low-
temperature properties are therefore
available on the market during the

Prohibited Fuels
Gasolines containing oxygenates,
such as ethers and ethanol, as well
as reformulated gasolines are
available in some cities. If these
gasolines comply with the
previously described specification,
then they are acceptable to use.
However, E85 (85% ethanol) and
other fuels containing more than
15% ethanol must be used only in
flex fuel vehicles.

Do not use fuel containing
methanol. It can corrode metal
parts in the fuel system and also
damage plastic and rubber parts.

Fuel for Diesel Engines
Diesel engines must be operated
only on commercially available
diesel fuel meeting the
specifications of DIN EN 590. The
flow and filterability of diesel fuels
are insufficient at low temperatures,
as a result of crystallized paraffins.
Diesel fuels with improved
low-temperature properties are
therefore available on the market
during the winter months. Be sure to
use winter fuel before the start of
the cold weather season. Use of
diesel fuels with manufacturer
guaranteed winter properties
eliminates the need for additives.
Water in Fuel (Diesel)
Drain diesel fuel filter of water at
every engine oil change.
1. Place a container underneath
the filter housing.
2. Turn the drain plug, on the left of
the filter housing,
counter-clockwise to drain off the
water. The filter is drained as
soon as diesel fuel emerges
from the port.
3. Retighten the drain plug by
turning it clockwise.
4. With the engine off, turn the
ignition to ON, wait
approximately five seconds, and
turn the key to LOCK to prime.
Perform this operation three or
more times while the engine is
off, to avoid air entering the
fuel line.
Check the diesel fuel filter at shorter
intervals if the vehicle is subjected
to extreme operating conditions
such as high humidity (primarily in
coastal areas), extremely high or

Cruise Control
For vehicles with cruise control, a
speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph) or
more can be maintained without
keeping your foot on the
accelerator. Cruise control does not
work at speeds below 40 km/h
(25 mph).
When the brakes are applied, or the
cancel button pressed, the cruise
control turns off.
If the vehicle is in cruise control
when the traction control system,
if equipped, begins to limit wheel
spin, the cruise control automatically
disengages. The cruise control can
be turned back on, when road
conditions are safe again.
{
Warning
Cruise control can be dangerous
where you cannot drive safely at
a steady speed. Do not use
cruise control on winding roads or
in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous
on slippery roads. On such roads,
fast changes in tire traction can
cause excessive wheel slip, and
you could lose control. Do not use
cruise control on slippery roads.
The cruise control buttons are
located on the right side of the
steering wheel.

Driving and Operating 215
Caution
Do not use fuel containing
methanol. It can corrode metal
parts in the fuel system and also
damage plastic and rubber parts.
That damage would not be
covered under the vehicle
warranty.
Some gasolines that are not
reformulated for low emissions can
contain an octane-enhancing
additive called
methylcyclopentadienyl manganese
tricarbonyl (MMT). Do not use
gasolines with MMT as they can
reduce spark plug life and affect
emission control system
performance. The malfunction
indicator lamp may turn on. If this
occurs, see your dealer for service.
Diesel Engine
Diesel engine must be operated
only on commercially available
diesel fuel meeting the
specifications of DIN EN 590. Do
not use marine diesel oils, heating
oils or entirely or partially
plant-based diesel fuels, such as
rape seed oil or bio diesel, Aquazole
and similar diesel-water emulsions.
The flow and filterability of diesel
fuel are temperature-dependent.
Diesel fuels with improved
low-temperature properties are
therefore available on the market
during the winter months. Make sure
that you fill the tank with winter fuel
before the start of the cold weather
season.
Fuel Additives
Gasoline should contain detergent
additives that help prevent engine
and fuel system deposits from
forming. Clean fuel injectors and
intake valves will allow the emission
control system to work properly.
Some gasoline does not contain
sufficient quantities of additives to
keep fuel injectors and intake valves
clean. To make up for this lack of
detergency, consult your dealer for
the GM approved additive
treatment. Add this additive to the
fuel tank at every engine oil change
or every 15 000 km (9,000 mi),
whichever occurs first.
