Brake Adjustment
Every time you make a brake stop, your disc brakes
adjust for wear.
Replacing Brake
System
Parts
The braking system on a modern vehicle is complex.
Its many parts have to be of top
quality
and work well
together
if
the
vehicle
is
to have really good braking. Your
vehicle was designed and tested with top-quality
GM
brake parts.
When
you replace parts
of
your
braking
system
--
for example, when your brake linings wear
down and you have to have new ones put
in
--
be sure you
get new approved
GM
replacement parts.
If
you don’t,
your brakes may no longer work properly. For example,
if someone puts in brake linings that are wrong for your
vehicle, the balance between your front and rear brakes
can change
--
for the worse. The braking performance
you’ve come to expect can change
in
many other ways
if
someone puts
in
the wrong replacement brake
parts.
Battery
Every new Chevrolet has an ACDelco Freedom@ battery.
You never have to add water to one of these. When it’s
time for a new battery, we recommend an ACDelco
Freedom battery. Get one that has the replacement
number shown on the original battery’s label.
Vehicle Storage
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for
25
days
or more, remove the black, negative
(-)
cable
from
the battery. This will help keep your battery from
running down.
Batteries have acid that can burn you and gas
that can explode. You can be badly hurt if you
aren’t careful. See “Jump Starting’’ in the Index
for tips on working around a battery without
getting hurt.
Contact your dealer to
learn
how to prepare your vehicle
for
longer storage periods.
