Rico and Canada. 4 Summer-only tires tend to wear faster and are more sus-
ceptible to damage from road hazards or curb impact than standard profile tires.
This type of damage is not covered by the GM New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
You may want to get dierent tires if you expect to drive in winter conditions.
See your dealer for proper tire selection. 5 Servotronic is a registered trademark

for your child’s age and size, even in vehicles with airbags. Even in vehicles
equipped with Passenger Sensing System, children are safer when properly
secured in the rear seat, in an appropriate infant, child or booster seat. Never
place a rear-facing infant restraint in the front seat of any vehicle equipped with
an active frontal airbag. See the vehicle Owner’s Manual and child safety seat
instructions for more safety information. 7 Visit onstar.com for coverage map,
