Performance and Maintenance

Traction Control/ Electronic Stability Control The Traction Control System (TCS) limits wheel spin. The system is on when the vehicle is started. The StabiliTrak system assists with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. The system is on when the vehicle is started.

To turn off traction control, press and release the TCS/StabiliTrak button g on the center stack. i illuminates in the instrument cluster. To turn off both traction control and StabiliTrak, press and hold g on the center stack, until i and g illuminate in the instrument cluster.

. Press g again to turn on both

systems. i and g go off in instrument cluster.

StabiliTrak will automatically turn on if the vehicle exceeds 56 km/h (35 mph). Traction control will remain off until the driver presses the g button or the ignition is cycled from Off then On. See Traction Control/Electronic Stability Control on page 9-42.

Tire Pressure Monitor This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).

The low tire pressure warning light alerts to a significant loss in pressure of one of the vehicle's tires. If the warning light comes on,

stop as soon as possible and inflate the tires to the recommended pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label. See Vehicle Load Limits on page 9-15. The warning light will remain on until the tire pressure is corrected. The low tire pressure warning light may come on in cool weather when the vehicle is first started, and then turn off as the vehicle is driven. This may be an early indicator that the tire pressures are getting low and the tires need to be inflated to the proper pressure. The TPMS does not replace normal monthly tire maintenance. Maintain the correct tire pressures. See Tire Pressure Monitor System on page 10-50.

Engine Oil Life System The engine oil life system calculates engine oil life based on vehicle use and, on most vehicles, displays a Driver Information Center (DIC) message when it is necessary to

GMC Canyon Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-7587000) 2015 - CRC - 6/25/14

Black plate (21,1)

change the engine oil and filter. The oil life system should be reset to 100% only following an oil change.

Resetting the Oil Life System To reset the engine oil life system: 1. Display OIL LIFE REMAINING

on the DIC. See Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base Level) on page 5-25 or Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel) on page 5-28. If the vehicle does not have DIC buttons, the vehicle must be in P (Park) to access this display.

2. Press and hold the V button on the DIC, or the SET/CLR button on the turn signal lever if the vehicle does not have DIC buttons, for several seconds. The oil life will change to 100%. The oil life system can also be reset as follows: 1. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with

the engine off.

2. Display OIL LIFE REMAINING

on the DIC.

3. Fully press the accelerator pedal

slowly three times within five seconds. If the display shows 100%, the system is reset.

See Engine Oil Life System on page 10-10.

Driving for Better Fuel Economy Driving habits can affect fuel mileage. Here are some driving tips to get the best fuel economy possible. . Avoid fast starts and accelerate

smoothly.

. Brake gradually and avoid

abrupt stops.

. Avoid idling the engine for long

periods of time.

. When road and weather

conditions are appropriate, use cruise control.

In Brief

1-21

. Always follow posted speed

limits or drive more slowly when conditions require.

. Keep vehicle tires properly

inflated.

. Combine several trips into a

single trip.

. Replace the vehicle's tires with

the same TPC Spec number molded into the tire's sidewall near the size. Follow recommended scheduled maintenance.

The combination and size of the rings that came with your keys were specifically selected for your vehicle. The rings are connected to the key like two links of a chain to reduce the risk of unintentionally moving the key out of the RUN position. Do not add any additional items to the ring attached to the ignition key. Attach additional items only to the second ring, and limit added items to a few essential keys or small, light items no larger than an RKE transmitter.

Warning (Continued)

the engine will shut off, braking and steering power assist may be impacted, and airbags may not deploy. To reduce the risk of unintentional rotation of the ignition key, do not change the way the ignition key and Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter, if equipped, are connected to the provided key rings.

The ignition key and key rings, and RKE transmitter, if equipped, are designed to work together as a system to reduce the risk of unintentionally moving the key out of the RUN position. The ignition key has a small hole to allow attachment of the provided key ring. It is important that any replacement ignition keys have a small hole. See your dealer if a replacement key is required.

{ Warning

If the key is unintentionally rotated while the vehicle is running, the ignition could be moved out of the RUN position. This could be caused by heavy items hanging from the key ring, or by large or long items attached to the key ring that could be contacted by the driver or steering wheel. If the ignition moves out of the RUN position,

The key is used for the ignition and all door locks. Programming Keys Follow these procedures to program up to eight keys to the vehicle.

Programming with a Recognized Key To program a new key: 1.

Insert the original, already programmed key in the ignition and turn the key to the ON/RUN position.

2. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF and

3.

remove the key. Insert the new key to be programmed and turn it to the ON/RUN position within five seconds. The security light will turn off once the key has been programmed.

4. Repeat Steps 1–3 if additional

keys are to be programmed.

If a key is lost or damaged, see your dealer to have a new key made.

Programming without a Recognized Key Program a new key to the vehicle when a recognized key is not available. Canadian regulations require that owners see their dealer. If there are no currently recognized keys available, follow this procedure to program the first key. This procedure will take approximately 30 minutes to complete for the first key. The vehicle must be off and all of the keys you wish to program must be with you. 1.

Insert the new vehicle key into the ignition.

2. Turn to ON/RUN. The security

light will come on.

3. Wait 10 minutes until the

security light turns off.

4. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.

5. Repeat Steps 2–4 two more

times. After the third time, turn to ON/RUN; the key is learned and all previously known keys will no longer work with the vehicle.

Remaining keys can be learned by following the procedure in “Programming with a Recognized Key.” The key has a bar-coded key tag that the dealer or qualified locksmith can use to make new keys. Store this information in a safe place, not in the vehicle. See your dealer if a replacement key or additional key is needed. If it becomes difficult to turn a key, inspect the key blade for debris. Periodically clean with a brush or pick. With an active OnStar subscription, an OnStar Advisor may remotely unlock the vehicle. See OnStar Overview on page 14-1.

The alarm turns off when the ignition is moved to ON/ RUN or 7 is pressed again. The ignition must be in LOCK/OFF for the panic alarm to work.

Programming Transmitters to the Vehicle Only RKE transmitters programmed to this vehicle will work. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased and programmed through your dealer. Each vehicle can have up to eight transmitters programmed to it. See your dealer for transmitter programming. Battery Replacement Replace the battery in the transmitter soon if the REPLACE BATTERY IN REMOTE KEY message displays in the DIC.

{ Caution

When replacing the battery, do not touch any of the circuitry on the transmitter. Static from your body could damage the transmitter.

To replace the battery:
