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
bralung
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 Aurora 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.
The battery is located under the rear seat cushion.
To access
the
battery, see “Removing the Rear Seat
Cushion” in the Index.
You
don’t need to access the
battery to jump start your vehicle. See “Jump Starting”
in the Index.
A
CAUTION:
A
battery that isn’t properly vented can let
sulfuric acid fumes into the area under the rear
seat cushion. These fumes can damage your rear
seat safety belt systems. You may not be able to
see this damage, and the safety belts might not
provide the protection needed in a crash.
If
a
replacement battery is ever needed, it must
be vented in the same manner as the original
battery.
Always
make sure that the vent
hose
is
properly reattached before reinstalling the
seat cushion.
