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.
