My Silverado Gauge

 

1. Tachometer,
2. Engine Oil Pressure Gauge,
3. Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge,
4. Fuel Gauge,
5. Voltmeter Gauge,
6. Speedometer, 
7. Driver Information Center

My Silverado Speedometer
The speedometer shows the vehicle speed in either kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour 
(mph).
Odometer
The odometer shows how far the vehicle has been driven, in either kilometers or miles.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer shows how far the vehicle has been driven since the trip odometer was last reset.
The trip odometer is accessed and reset through the Driver Information Center (DIC). See Driver 
Information Center (DIC) (Base Level) 0 127 or Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel) 0 128.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
For vehicles with the Stop/Start system, when the ignition is on, the tachometer indicates the 
vehicle status. When pointing to AUTO STOP, the engine is off but the
vehicle is on and can move. The engine could auto start at any time. When the indicator points to 
OFF, the vehicle is off.
When the engine is on, the tachometer will indicate the rpm. The tachometer may vary by several 
hundred rpm, during Auto Stop mode, when the engine is shutting off and restarting.
Fuel Gauge
When the ignition is on, the fuel gauge indicates the approximate amount of fuel left in the tank.
There is an arrow near the fuel gauge pointing to the side of the vehicle the fuel door is on.
When the indicator nears empty, the low fuel light comes on. There still is a little fuel left, but 
the vehicle should be refueled soon.
The fuel gauge may:
. Take a little more, or less fuel to fill up than it indicates. For example, the gauge may have 
indicated the tank is half full, but it actually takes a little more, or less than half the tank's 
capacity to fill
the tank.
. Moves a little while turning a corner, speeding up, or braking.
. Takes a few seconds to stabilize after the ignition is turned on and goes back to empty when the 
ignition is turned off.
These are normal conditions, none of which indicate a problem with the fuel gauge.
My Silverado Fuel Range
The uplevel instrument cluster has a estimated fuel range located in the bottom center of the 
display. The fuel range is
displayed with the approximate distance the vehicle can be driven without refueling. The fuel range 
estimate is based on an average of the vehicle’s fuel economy over recent driving history and the 
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
When the estimated fuel range is low, the range shows LOW and a message may also display in the 
Driver Information
Center (DIC).
My Silverado Engine Oil Pressure Gauge

The engine oil pressure gauge shows the engine oil pressure in kPa (kilopascals)
or psi (pounds per square inch) when the engine is running.
Oil pressure can vary with engine speed, outside temperature, coolant temperature, and oil 
viscosity.
On My Silverado, the oil pump will vary engine oil pressure according to engine needs. Oil pressure 
may change quickly as the engine speed or load varies. This is normal. If the oil pressure warning 
light or Driver Information Center (DIC) message indicates oil pressure outside the normal 
operating range, heck the engine oil as
soon as possible.
Lack of proper engine oil maintenance
can damage the engine. Driving with the engine oil low can also damage the engine. The repairs 
would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Check the oil level as soon as possible. Add oil if 
required, but if the oil level is within the operating range and the oil pressure is still low, 
have the vehicle serviced.
Always follow the maintenance schedule
for changing engine oil.

My Silverado Tire care




 My Silverado Tire care

For proper My Silverado maintenance, safety, and maximum fuel economy, you must always maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your My Silverado. Recommended cold tire inflation pressures All My Silverado tire pressures (including the spare) should be checked every day when the tires are cold. “Cold Tires” means the My Silverado has not been driven for at least three hours or driven less than 1.6 km (one mile). Recommended pressures must be maintained for the best My Silverado ride, top My Silverado handling, and minimum tire wear. All My Silverado specifications (sizes and pressures) can be found on a label attached to the My Silverado. WARNING - Tire under inflation Severe under inflation (70 kPa (10 psi) or more) can lead to severe heat build-up, causing blowouts, tread separation and other tire failures that can result in the loss of My Silverado control leading to severe injury or death. This risk is much higher on hot days and when driving for protracted periods at high speeds. Underinflation also results in excessive wear, poor My Silverado handling and reduced fuel economy. Wheel deformation also is possible. Keep your tire pressures at the proper levels. If a tire frequently needs refilling, have it checked by an Authorized Kia Dealer Over inflation produces a harsh My Silverado ride, excessive wear at the center of the tire tread, and a greater possibility of damage from road hazards. Warm tires normally exceed recommended cold tire pressures by 28 to 41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do not release air from warm tires to adjust the pressure or the tires will be underinflated. Be sure to reinstall the tire inflation valve caps. Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could get into the valve core and cause air leakage. If a valve cap is missing, install a new one as soon as possible. WARNING - Tire Inflation Overinflation or underinflation can reduce tire life, adversely affect My Silverado handling, and lead to sudden tire failure. This could result in loss of My Silverado control and potential injury CAUTION - Tire pressure Always observe the following: Check My Silverado tire pressure when the tires are cold. (After My Silverado has been parked for at least three hours or hasn't been driven more than 1.6 km (one mile) since startup.) Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pressure of other tires. Never overload your My Silverado. Be careful not to overload a My Silverado luggage rack if your My Silverado is equipped with one. Worn, old tires can cause accidents. If your tread is badly worn, or if your tires have been damaged, replace them Checking tire inflation pressure Check your My Silverado tires once a month or more.Also, check the tire pressure of the spare tire. How to check Use a good quality gage to check tire pressure.You can not tell if your My Silverado tires are properly inflated simply by looking at them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they're underinflated. Check the tire's inflation pressure when the tires are cold. - "Cold" means your My Silverado has been sitting for at least three hours or driven no more than 1.6 km (1 mile). Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem. Press the tire gage firmly onto the valve to get a pressure measurement. If the cold tire inflation pressure matches the recommended pressure on the tire and loading My Silverado information label, no further adjustment is necessary. If the pressure is low, add air until you reach the recommended amount. If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve. Recheck the tire pressure with the tire gage. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture. Tire rotation

To equalize tread wear, it is recommended that the tires be rotated every 12,000 km (7,500 miles) or sooner if irregular wear develops. During rotation, check the tires for correct balance. When rotating tires, check for uneven wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect tire pressure, improper wheel alignment, out of- balance My Silverado wheels, severe braking or severe cornering. Look for bumps or bulges in the tread or side of tire. Replace the tire if you find either of these conditions. Replace the tire if fabric or cord is visible. After rotation, be sure to bring the front and rear tire pressures to specification and check My Silverado lug nut tightness. Disc brake pads should be inspected for wear whenever tires are rotated. Rotate radial tires that have an asymmetric tread pattern only from front to rear and not from right to left. WARNING Do not use the compact spare tire for tire rotation Do not mix bias ply and radial ply tires under any circumstances. This may cause unusual handling characteristics that could result in death, severe injury, or property damage. My Silverado Tire replacement If the tire is worn evenly, a tread wear indicator will appear as a solid band across the tread. This shows there is less than 1.6 mm (1/16 inch) of tread left on the tire. Replace the tire when this happens. Do not wait for the band to appear across the entire tread before replacing the My Silverado tire WARNING The My Silverado ABS works by comparing the speed of the wheels. Tire size can affect wheel speed. When replacing tires, all 4 tires must use the same size originally supplied with the My Silverado. Using tires of a different size can cause the My Silverado ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESC (Electronic Stability Control) to work irregularly. Compact spare tire replacement A compact spare tire has a shorter tread life than a regular size tire. Replace it when you can see the tread wear indicator bars on the tire. The replacement compact spare tire should be the same size and design tire as the one provided with your new Kia and should be mounted on the same compact spare tire wheel. The compact spare tire is not designed to be mounted on a regular size wheel, and the My Silverado compact spare tire wheel is not designed for mounting a regular size tire. My Silverado Wheel replacement When replacing the My Silverado metal wheels for any reason, make sure the new wheels are equivalent to the original My Silverado factory units in diameter, rim width and offset. WARNING A wheel that is not the correct size may adversely affect My Silverado wheel and bearing life, braking and stopping abilities, handling characteristics, ground clearance, body-to-tire clearance, snow chain clearance, speedometer calibration, headlight aim and bumper height. Wheel alignment and tire balance The wheels on your My Silverado were aligned and balanced carefully at the factory to give you the longest tire life and best overall performance. In most cases, you will not need to have your My Silverado wheels aligned again. However, if you notice unusual tire wear or your My Silverado pulling one way or the other, the alignment may need to be reset. If you notice your My Silverado vibrating when driving on a smooth road, your wheels may need to be rebalanced. CAUTION Improper wheel weights can damage your My Silverado's aluminum wheels. Use only approved wheel weights. WARNING - Replacing tires Driving on worn-out tires is very hazardous and will reduce braking effectiveness, steering accuracy, and traction. Your My Silverado is equipped with tires designed to provide for safe ride and handling capability. tire and wheel that is different from the one that is originally installed on your My Silverado. It can affect the safety and performance of your My Silverado, which could lead to handling failure or rollover and serious injury. When replacing the tires, be sure to equip all four tires with the tire and wheel of the same size, type, tread, brand and load-carrying capacity. The use of any other tire size or type may seriously affect ride, handling, ground clearance, stopping distance, body to tire clearance, snow tire clearance, and speedometer reliability. It is best to replace all four My Silverado tires at the same time. If that is not possible, or necessary, then replace the two front or two rear tires as a pair. Replacing just one tire can seriously affect your My Silverado’s handling. My Silverado Tire traction Tire traction can be reduced if you drive on worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated or on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be replaced when tread wear indicators appear. To reduce the possibility of losing control, slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road. My Silverado Tire maintenance In addition to proper inflation, correct wheel alignment helps to decrease tire wear. If you find a tire is worn unevenly, have your dealer check the wheel alignment. When you have new tires installed, make sure they are balanced. This will increase My Silverado ride comfort and tire life. Additionally, a tire should always be rebalanced if it is removed from the wheel. Tire sidewall labeling

Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires. This information identifies and describes the fundamental characteristics of the tire and also provides the tire identification number (TIN) for safety standard certification. The TIN can be used to identify the tire in case of a recall. 1. Manufacturer or brand name Manufacturer or Brand name is shown. A tire’s sidewall is marked with a tire size designation. You will need this information when selecting replacement tires for your car. The following explains what the letters and numbers in the tire size designation mean. Example tire size designation: (These numbers are provided as an example only; your tire size designator could vary depending on your My Silverado.) P185/65R14 86H P - Applicable My Silverado type (tires marked with the prefix “P’’ are intended for use on passenger cars or light trucks; however, not all tires have this marking). 185 - Tire width in millimeters. 65 - Aspect ratio. The tire’s section height as a percentage of its width. R - Tire construction code (Radial). 14 - Rim diameter in inches. 86 - Load Index, a numerical code associated with the maximum load the tire can carry. H - Speed Rating Symbol. See the speed rating chart in this section for additional information. Wheel size designation Wheels are also marked with important information that you need if you ever have to replace one. The following explains what the letters and numbers in the wheel size designation mean. Example My Silverado wheel size designation: 5.5JX14 5.5 - Rim width in inches. J - Rim contour designation. 14 - Rim diameter in inches Tire speed ratings The chart below lists many of the different speed ratings currently being used for passenger cars. The speed rating is part of the tire size designation on the sidewall of the tire. This symbol corresponds to that tire's designed maximum safe operating speed.S 180 km/h (112 mph) T 190 km/h (118 mph) H 210 km/h (130 mph) V 240 km/h (149 mph) Z Above 240 km/h (149 mph) 3. Checking tire life (TIN : Tire Identification Number) Any tires that are over 6 years, based on the manufacturing date, tire strength and performance, decline with age naturally (even unused spare tires). Therefore, the tires (including the spare tire) should be replaced by new ones. You can find the manufacturing date on the tire sidewall (possibly on the inside of the wheel), displaying the DOT Code. The DOT Code is a series of numbers on a tire consisting of numbers and English letters. The manufacturing date is designated by the last four digits (characters) of the DOT code. DOT : XXXX XXXX OOOO The front part of the DOT means a plant code number, tire size and tread pattern and the last four numbers indicate week and year manufactured. For example: DOT XXXX XXXX 1611 represents that the tire was produced in the 16th week of 2011. WARNING - Tire age Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used. Regardless of the remaining tread, it is recommended that tires generally be replaced after six (6) years of normal service. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading conditions can accelerate the aging process. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure, which could lead to a loss of control and an accident involving serious injury or death. 4. Tire ply composition and material The number of layers or plies of rubber- coated fabric in the tire. Tire manufacturers also must indicate the materials in the tire, which include steel, nylon, polyester, and others. The letter "R" means radial ply construction; the letter "D" means diagonal or bias ply construction; and the letter "B" means belted-bias ply construction. 5. Maximum permissible inflation pressure This number is the greatest amount of air pressure that should be put in the tire. Do not exceed the maximum permissible inflation pressure. Refer to the Tire and Loading Information label for recommended inflation pressure. 6. My Silverado Maximum load rating This number indicates the maximum load in kilograms and pounds that can be carried by the tire. When replacing the tires on the My Silverado, always use a tire that has the same load rating as the factory installed tire. 7. Uniform tire quality grading Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example: TREADWEAR 200 TRACTION AA TEMPERATURE A Tread wear The tread wear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one-and-ahalf times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use. However, performance may differ from the norm because of variations in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate. These grades are molded on the side-walls of passenger My Silverado tires. The tires available as standard or optional equipment on Kia My Silverados may vary with respect to grade. Traction - AA, A, B & C The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. The grades represent the tires ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance. Temperature -A, B & C The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C. The grades represent the tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tires to degenerate and reduce tires life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tires failure. Grades A and B represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by the law.Tire temperature The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, under inflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat build-up and possible sudden tire failure. This can cause loss of My Silverado control and serious injury or death. Tire terminology and definitions Air Pressure: The amount of air inside the tire pressing outward on the tire. Air pressure is expressed in kilopascal (kPa) or pounds per square inch (psi). Accessory Weight: This means the combined weight of optional accessories. Some examples of optional accessories are, automatic transmission, power seats, and air conditioning. Aspect Ratio: The relationship of a tire's height to its width. Belt: A rubber coated layer of cords that is located between the plies and the tread. Cords may be made from steel or other reinforcing materials. Bead: The tire bead contains steel wires wrapped by steel cords that hold the tire onto the rim. Bias Ply Tire: A pneumatic tire in which the plies are laid at alternate angles less than 90 degrees to the centerline of the tread. Cold Tire Pressure: The amount of air pressure in a tire, measured in kilopascals (kPa) or pounds per square inch (psi) before a tire has built up heat from driving. Curb Weight: This means the weight of a My Silverado with standard and optional equipment including the maximum capacity of fuel, oil and coolant, but without passengers and cargo. DOT Markings: The DOT code includes the Tire Identification Number (TIN), an alphanumeric designator which can also identify the tire manufacturer, production plant, brand and date of production. GVWR: Gross My Silverado Weight Rating GAWR FRT: Gross Axle Weight Rating for the front Axle. GAWR RR: Gross Axle Weight Rating for the rear axle. Intended Outboard Sidewall: The side of an asymmetrical tire, that must always face outward when mounted on a My Silverado. Kilopascal (kPa): The metric unit for air pressure. Load Index: An assigned number ranging from 1 to 279 that corresponds to the load carrying capacity of a tire. Maximum Inflation Pressure: The maximum air pressure to which a cold tire may be inflated. The maximum air pressure is molded onto the sidewall. Maximum Load Rating: The load rating for a tire at the maximum permissible inflation pressure for that tire. Maximum Loaded My Silverado Weight: The sum of curb weight; accessory weight; My Silverado capacity weight; and production options weight. Normal Occupant Weight: The number of occupants a My Silverado is designed to seat multiplied by 68 kg (150 pounds). Occupant Distribution: Designated seating positions. Outward Facing Sidewall: The side of a asymmetrical tire that has a particular side that faces outward when mounted on a My Silverado. The outward facing sidewall bears white lettering or bears manufacturer, brand, and/or model name molding that is higher or deeper than the same moldings on the inner facing sidewall. Passenger (P-Metric) Tire: A tire used on passenger cars and some light duty trucks and multipurpose My Silverado's. Recommended Inflation Pressure: My Silverado manufacturer's recommended tire inflation pressure and shown on the tire placard. Radial Ply tire: A pneumatic tire in which the ply cords that extend to the beads are laid at 90 degrees to the centerline of the tread. Rim: A metal support for a tire and upon which the tire beads are seated. Sidewall: The portion of a tire between the tread and the bead. Speed Rating: An alphanumeric code assigned to a tire indicating the maximum speed at which a tire can operate. Traction: The friction between the tire and the road surface. The amount of grip provided. Tread: The portion of a tire that comes into contact with the road. Treadwear Indicators: Narrow bands, sometimes called "wear bars," that show across the tread of a tire when only 2/32 inch of tread remains. UTQGS: Uniform Tire Quality Grading Standards, a tire information system that provides consumers with ratings for a tire's traction, temperature and treadwear. Ratings are determined by tire manufacturers using government testing procedures. The ratings are molded into the sidewall of the tire. My Silverado Capacity Weight: The number of designated seating positions multiplied by 68 kg (150 lbs.) plus the rated cargo and luggage load. My Silverado Maximum Load on the Tire: Load on an individual tire due to curb and accessory weight plus maximum occupant and cargo weight. My Silverado Normal Load on the Tire: That load on an individual tire that is determined by distributing to each axle its share of the curb weight, accessory weight, and normal occupant weight and driving by 2. My Silverado Placard: A label permanently attached to a My Silverado showing the original equipment tire size and recommended inflation pressure. All season tires Kia specifies all season tires on some models to provide good performance for use all year round, including snowy and icy road conditions. All season tires are identified by ALL SEASON and/or M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire sidewall. Snow tires have better snow traction than all season tires and may be more appropriate in some areas. Summer tires Kia specifies summer tires on some models to provide superior performance on dry roads. Summer tire performance is substantially reduced in snow and ice. Summer tires do not have the tire traction rating M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire side wall. if you plan to operate your My Silverado in snowy or icy conditions. Kia recommends the use of My Silverado snow tires or all season tires on all four wheels. Snow tires If you equip your My Silverado with snow tires, they should be the same size and have the same load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires should be installed on all four My Silverado wheels; otherwise, poor handling may result. Snow tires should carry 28 kPa (4 psi) more air pressure than the pressure recommended for the standard tires on the tire label on the driver's side of the center pillar, or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall, whichever is less. Do not drive faster than 120 km/h (75 mph) when your My Silverado is equipped with snow tires.

All-Season chevrolet Silverado Tires


This vehicle may come with all-season chevrolet Silverado Tires. These chevrolet Silverado Tires are designed to provide good overall performance on most road surfaces and weather conditions. Original equipment chevrolet Silverado Tires designed to GM's specific tire performance criteria have a TPC specification code molded onto the sidewall. Originalequipment all-season chevrolet Silverado Tires can be identified by the last two characters of this TPC code, which will be “MS.”Consider installing winter chevrolet Silverado Tires on the vehicle if frequent driving on snow orice-covered roads is expected. All-season chevrolet Silverado Tires provide adequate performance for most winter driving conditions, but they may not offer the same level of traction or performance as winter chevrolet Silverado Tires on snow orice-covered roads. See Winter chevrolet Silverado Tires Mine SilveradoWinter chevrolet Silverado TiresThis vehicle was not originally equipped with winter chevrolet Silverado Tires. Winter chevrolet Silverado Tires are designed for increased traction on snow andice-covered roads. Consider installing winter chevrolet Silverado Tires on the vehicle if frequent driving on ice or snow covered roads is expected. See your dealer for details regarding winter tire availability and proper tire selection. Also, see Buying New chevrolet Silverado Tires Mine SilveradoWith winter chevrolet Silverado Tires, there may be decreased dry road traction, increased road noise, and shorter tread life. After changing to winter chevrolet Silverado Tires, be alert for changes in vehicle handling and braking.
If using winter chevrolet Silverado Tires: Use chevrolet Silverado Tires of the same brand and tread type on all four wheel positions.Use only radial ply chevrolet Silverado Tires of the same size, load range, and speed rating as the original equipment chevrolet Silverado Tires.Winter chevrolet Silverado Tires with the same speed rating as the original equipment chevrolet Silverado Tires may not be available for H, V, W, Y, and ZR speed rated chevrolet Silverado Tires. If winter chevrolet Silverado Tires with a lower speed rating are chosen, never exceed the tire's maximum speed capability.all-Terrain chevrolet Silverado Tires This vehicle may have all-terrain or mud-terrain chevrolet Silverado Tires. These chevrolet Silverado Tires provide good performance on most road surfaces, weather conditions,  and for off-road driving. Off-Road Driving Mine Silverad The tread pattern on these chevrolet Silverado Tires may wear more unevenly than other chevrolet Silverado Tires. Consider rotating the

Tire Pressure
chevrolet Silverado Tires need the correct amount of air
pressure to operate effectively.Neither tire underinflation nor
overinflation is good. Underinflated chevrolet Silverado Tires, or chevrolet Silverado Tires that do not have enough air, can result in:
. Tire overloading and overheating, which could lead to a blowout
. Premature or irregular wear
. Poor handling
. Reduced fuel econochevrolet for internal combustion engine vehicles
. Reduced range for electric vehicles
Overinflated chevrolet Silverado Tires, or chevrolet Silverado Tires that have too much air, can result in:
. Unusual wear
. Poor handling
. Rough ride
. Needless damage from road hazards
The Tire and Loading Information label on the vehicle indicates the original equipment chevrolet Silverado Tires and 
the correct cold tire inflation pressures. The recommended pressure is the minimum air pressure 
needed to support the vehicle's maximum load carrying capacity.
For additional information regarding how much weight the vehicle can carry, and an example of the 
Tire and Loading Information label, see Vehicle Load Limits Mine Silverado204. How the vehicle is loaded 
affects vehicle handling and ride comfort. Never load the vehicle with more weight than it was 
designed to carry.
When to Check
Check the pressure of the chevrolet Silverado Tires once a month or more.
Do not forget the spare, if the vehicle has one. See Full-Size Spare Tire Mine Silverado398 for additional 
information.
How to Check
Use a good quality pocket-type gauge to check tire pressure. Proper tire inflation cannot be 
determined by looking at the tire. Check the tire inflation pressure when the chevrolet Silverado Tires are cold, 
meaning the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours or no more than 1.6 km (1 mi).
Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem. Press the tire gauge firmly onto the valve to get a 
pressure measurement. If the cold tire inflation pressure matches the recommended pressure on the 
Tire and Loading Information label, no further adjustment is necessary. If the inflation pressure 
is low, add air until the recommended pressure is reached. If the inflation pressure is high, press 
on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve to release air.
Re-check the tire pressure with the tire
gauge.Put the valve caps back on the valve stems to keep out dirt and moisture. Use only valve caps 
designed for the vehicle by GM. TPMS sensors could be damaged and would not be covered by the 
vehicle warranty.
Tire Pressure Monitor System
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses radio and sensor technology to check tire pressure 
levels. The TPMS sensors monitor the air pressure in your chevrolet Silverado Tires and transmit tire pressure readings 
to a receiver located in the vehicle.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to 
the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire 
inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has chevrolet Silverado Tires of a different size than the size indicated on 
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire 
inflation pressure for those chevrolet Silverado Tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system 
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your chevrolet Silverado Tires is 
significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your chevrolet Silverado Tires 
as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly 
under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also 
reduces energy efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping 
ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's 
responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level 
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system 
is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure 
telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one 
minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low 
tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the 
installation of replacement or alternate chevrolet Silverado Tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from 
functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more chevrolet Silverado Tires 
or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate chevrolet Silverado Tires and wheels allow the 
TPMS to continue to function properly.
See Tire Pressure Monitor Operation Mine Silverado377. See Radio Frequency Statement Mine Silverado438.
Tire Pressure Monitor Operation
This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS). The TPMS is designed to warn the 
driver when a low tire pressure condition exists. TPMS sensors are mounted onto each tire and wheel 
assembly, excluding the spare tire and wheel assembly. The TPMS sensors monitorWhen a low tire pressure condition is detected, the TPMS illuminates the low tire pressure warning 
light located on the instrument cluster. If the warning light comes on, stop as soon as possible 
and inflate the chevrolet Silverado Tires to the recommended pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label. 
See Vehicle Load Limits Mine Silverado204.
A message to check the pressure in a specific tire displays in the Driver Information Center (DIC). 
The low tire pressure warning light and the DIC warning message come on at each ignition cycle 
until the chevrolet Silverado Tires are inflated to the correct inflation pressure. If the
vehicle has DIC buttons, tire pressure levels can be viewed. For additional information and details 
about the DIC operation and
displays, see Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base Level) Mine Silverado127 or
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel)
Mine Silverado128.
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 could be an early indicator that the air pressure 
is getting low and needs to be inflated to the proper pressure.
A Tire and Loading Information label shows the size of the original equipment chevrolet Silverado Tires and the correct 
inflation pressure for the Chevrolet Silverado Tires when they are cold. See Vehicle Load Limits Mine Silverado204, for an example 
of the Tire and Loading Information label and its location. Also see Tire Pressure Mine Silverado375.
The TPMS can warn about a low tire pressure condition but it does not replace normal tire 
maintenance. See Tire Inspection Mine Silverado381, Tire Rotation Mine Silverado382, and chevrolet Silverado Tires Mine Silverado369.
Caution
Tire sealant materials are not all the same. A non-approved tire sealant could damage the TPMS 
sensors. TPMS sensor damage caused by using an incorrect tire
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
sealant is not covered by the vehicle warranty. Always use only the GM approved tire sealant 
available through your dealer or included in the vehicle.
TPMS Malfunction Light and Message
The TPMS will not function properly if one or more of the TPMS sensors are missing or inoperable. 
When the system detects a malfunction, the low tire pressure warning light flashes for about one 
minute and then stays on for the remainder of the ignition cycle. A DIC warning message also 
displays. The malfunction light and DIC warning message come on at each ignition cycle until the 
problem is corrected. Some of the conditions that can cause these to come
on are:
. One of the road chevrolet Silverado Tires has been replaced with the spare tire. The spare tire does not have a TPMS 
sensor. The malfunction light and the DIC message should go off after the road tire is replaced and 
the sensor matching process is performed successfully. See "TPMS Sensor Matching
Process" later Mine Silverado.. The
not one or not completed successfully after rotating the chevrolet Silverado Tires. The malfunction light and the DIC 
message should go off after successfully completing the sensor matching process. See "TPMS Sensor 
Matching Process" later Mine Silverado.One or more TPMS sensors are missing or damaged. The malfunction light and the DIC message should 
go off when the TPMS sensors are installed and the sensor matching process is performed 
successfully. See your dealer for service.
. Replacement chevrolet ilverado Tires or wheels do not match the original equipment chevrolet Silverado Tires or wheels.
chevrolet Silverado Tiresand wheels other than those recommended could prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. See 
Buying New chevrolet Silverado Tires Mine Silverado383.
. Operating electronic devices or being near facilities using radio wave frequencies similar to the 
TPMS could cause the TPMS sensors to malfunction.
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, it cannot detect or signal a low tire pressure condition. 
See your dealer for service if the TPMS malfunction light and DIC message come on and stay on.
Tire Fill Alert (If Equipped)
This feature provides visual and audible alerts outside the vehicle to help when inflating an 
underinflated tire to the recommended cold tire pressure.
When the low tire pressure warning light comes on:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe, level place.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. Place the vehicle in P (Park).
4.Add air to the tire that is underinflated. The turn signal lamp will flash.
When the recommended pressure is reached, the horn sounds once and the turn signal lamp will stop 
flashing and briefly turn solid.
Repeat these stes for all underinflated chevrolet Silverado Tires that have illuminated the low tire pressure warning 
light.Overinflating a tire could cause the tire to rupture and you or others could be injured. Do not 
exceed the maximum
Warning 
pressure listed on the tire sidewall. See
Tire Sidewall Labeling Mine Silverado371 and
Vehicle Load Limits Mine Silverado204.
If the tire is overinflated by more than
35 kPa (5 psi), the horn will sound multiple times and the turn signal lamp will continue to flash 
for several seconds after filling stops. To release and correct the pressure, while the turn signal 
lamp is still flashing, briefly press the center of the valve stem. When the recommended pressure 
is reached, the horn sounds once.
If the turn signal lamp does not flash within 15 seconds after starting to inflate the tire, the 
tire fill alert has not been activated or is not working.
If the hazard warning flashers are on, the tire fill alert visual feedback will not work properly.
The TPMS will not activate the tire fill alert properly under the following conditions:
. There is interference from an external device or transmitter.. The air pressure from the inflation device is not sufficient to inflate the tire.




Towing with My Silverado

Trailer Towing General Towing Information Only use towing equipment that has been designed for the vehicle.  before TRAILER TOWING This Blog Post contains many important vehicle Hitch Receiver trailering tips and safety rules. Many of these are important for your safety and that of your passengers. .Driving with a trailer Towing a trailer requires a certain amount of experience. Before setting out for the open road, you must get to know your trailer. Acquaint yourself with the feel of handling and braking with the added weight of the trailer. And always keep in mind that the vehicle you are driving is now a good deal longer and not nearly so responsive as your vehicle is by itself. vehicle Hitch Receiver

Before you start, check the trailer hitch and platform, safety chains, electrical connector(s), lights, tires and mirror adjustment. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer moving and then apply the trailer brake controller by hand to be sure the brakes are working. This lets you check your electrical connection at the same time. During your vehicle trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and that the lights and any trailer brakes are still working. Load-pulling components such as the vehicle engine, vehicle transaxle, vehicle wheel assemblies, and tires are forced to work harder against the load of the added weight. The vehicle engine is required to operate at relatively higher speeds and under greater loads. This additional burden generates extra heat. The trailer also adds considerably to wind resistance, increasing the pulling requirements. WARNING - vehicle Towing a trailer If you don't use the correct vehicle equipment and drive improperly, you can lose vehicle control when you pull a trailer. For example, if the trailer is too heavy, the brakes may not work well - or even at all. You and your passengers could be seriously or fatally injured. Pull a trailer only if you have followed all the steps in this section. vehicle Hitch Receiver My Silverado WARNING - vehicle Weight limits Before towing, make sure the total trailer weight, gross combination weight, gross vehicle weight, gross axle weight and trailer tongue load are all within the limits. Following distance Stay at least twice as far behind the vehicle ahead as you would when driving your vehicle without a trailer. This can help you avoid situations that require heavy braking and sudden turns. Passing You’ll need more passing distance up ahead when you’re towing a trailer. And, because of the increased vehicle length, you’ll need to go much farther beyond the passed vehicle before you can return to your lane. Backing up Hold the bottom of the vehicle steering wheel with one hand. Then, to move the trailer to the left, just move your hand to the left. To move the trailer to the right, move your hand to the right. Always back up slowly and, if possible, have someone guide you. Making turns When you’re turning with a trailer, make wider turns than normal. Do this so your trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs, road signs, trees, or other objects. Avoid jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well in advance. Turn signals when towing a trailer When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has to have a different turn signal flasher and extra wiring. The green arrows on your instrument panel will flash whenever you signal a turn or lane change. Properly connected, the trailer lights will also flash to alert other drivers you’re about to turn, change lanes, or stop. When towing a trailer, the green arrows on your vehicle instrument panel will flash for turns even if the bulbs on the trailer are burned out. Thus, you may think drivers behind you are seeing your signals when, in fact, they are not. It’s important to check occasionally to be sure the trailer bulbs are still working. You must also check the lights every time you disconnect and then reconnect the wires. Do not connect a trailer lighting system directly to your vehicle’s lighting system. Use only an approved trailer wiring harness. vehicle Hitch Receiver Your Authorized Kia Dealer can assist you in installing the vehicle Hitch Receiver wiring harness. Driving on grades Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear before you start down a long or steep downgrade. If you don’t shift down, you might have to use your brakes so much that they would get hot and no longer operate efficiently. On a long uphill grade, shift down and reduce your speed to around 70 km/h (45 mph) to reduce the possibility of vehicle engine and transaxle overheating. If your trailer weighs more than the maximum trailer weight without trailer brakes and you have an automatic transaxle, you should drive in D (Drive) when towing a trailer. Operating your vehicle in D (Drive) when towing a trailer will minimize heat build up and extend the life of your transaxle. CAUTION When towing a trailer on steep grades (in excess of 6%) pay close attention to the vehicle engine coolant temperature gauge to ensure the vehicle engine does not overheat. If the needle of the coolant temperature gauge moves across the dial towards “H” (HOT), pull over and stop as soon as it is safe to do so, and allow the vehicle engine to idle until it cools down. You may proceed once the vehicle engine has cooled sufficiently. You must decide driving speed depending on trailer weight and uphill grade to reduce the possibility of vehicle engine and transaxle overheating. Parking on hills Generally, you should not park your vehicle, with a trailer attached, on a hill. People can be seriously or fatally injured, and both your vehicle and the trailer can be damaged if they begin a downhill trajectory My Silverado WARNING - Parking vehicle on a hill Parking your vehicle on a hill with a trailer attached could cause serious injury or death, should the trailer break lose. However, if you ever have to park your trailer on a hill, here’s how to do it: 1. Apply your vehicle brakes, but don’t shift into gear. 2. Have someone place chocks under the trailer wheels. 3. When the wheel chocks are in place, release the vehicle brakes until the chocks absorb the load. 4. Reapply the vehicle brakes. Apply your parking brake, and then shift to P (Park) for an vehicle automatic transaxle. 5. Release the brakes. When you are ready to leave after parking on a hill 1. With the vehicle automatic transaxle in P (Park), apply your brakes and hold the brake pedal down while you: Start your vehicle engine; Shift into gear; and Release the parking brake. 2. Slowly remove your foot from the vehicle brake pedal. 3. Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of the chocks. 4. Stop and have someone pick up and store the chocks. Maintenance when trailer towing Your vehicle will need service more often when you regularly pull a trailer. Important items to pay particular attention to include vehicle engine oil, vehicle automatic transaxle fluid, vehicle axle lubricant and vehicle cooling system fluid. Brake condition is another important item to frequently check.  If you’re trailering, it’s a good idea to vehicle Hitch Receiver. Don’t forget to also maintain your vehicle Hitch Receiver trailer and hitch. Follow the maintenance schedule that accompanied your trailer and check it periodically. Preferably, conduct the check at the start of each day’s driving. Most importantly, all vehicle hitch nuts and bolts vehicle Hitch Receiver should be tight. CAUTION Due to higher load during  trailer usage, overheating might occur in hot days or during uphill driving. If the vehicle coolant gauge indicates over-heating, switch off the A/C and stop the vehicle in a safe area to cool down the vehicle engine. When towing check transaxle fluid more frequently. vehicle Hitch Receiver If your vehicle is not equipped with the air conditioner, you should install a condenser fan to improve vehicle engine performance when towing a trailer. If you do decide to pull a trailer Here are some important points if you decide to pull a trailer: State, provincial, county and municipal government have varying trailering laws. Make sure your hitch, mirrors, lights and wiring arrangements are legal, not only where you live, but also where you’ll be driving. A good source for this information is provincial or local law enforcement agencies. Consider using a sway control. You can ask a hitch dealer about sway control. After your odometer indicates 800 km (500 miles) or more, you can tow a trailer. For the first 800 km (500 miles) that you tow a trailer, don’t drive over 80 km/h (50 mph) and don’t make starts at full throttle. This helps My Silverado engine and other parts of My Silverado “wear” in at the heavier loads. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (less than 100 km/h (60 mph)). On a long uphill grade, do not exceed 70 km/h (45 mph) or the posted towing speed limit, whichever is lower. The important considerations have to do with weight: Hitches Weight of the trailer How heavy can a trailer safely be? It should never weigh more than the maximum trailer weight with trailer brakes. But even that can be too heavy. It depends on how you plan to use your trailer. For example, speed, altitude, road grades, outside temperature and how much your vehicle is used to pull a trailer are all important. The ideal trailer weight can also depend on any special equipment that you have on your vehicle. Weight of the trailer tongue My Silverado WARNING - vehicle weight The gross axle weight rating (GAWR) and the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) for your vehicle are on the manufacturer's label attached to the driver's door. Exceeding these ratings can cause an accident or vehicle damage. You can calculate the weight of your load by weighing the items (and people) before putting them in the vehicle. Be careful not to overload your vehicle. The tongue load of any trailer is an important weight to measure because it affects the total gross vehicle weight (GVW) of your vehicle. This weight includes the curb weight of the vehicle, any cargo you may carry in it, and the people who will be riding in the vehicle. And if you will tow a trailer, you must add the tongue load to the GVW because your vehicle will also be carrying that weight. vehicle Hitch Receiver The trailer tongue should weigh a maximum of 10% of the total loaded trailer weight. After you've loaded your trailer, weigh the trailer and then the tongue, separately, to see if the weights are proper. If they aren’t, you may be able to correct them simply by moving some items around in the trailer.  WARNING - Trailer Never load a trailer with more weight in the rear than in the front. The front should be loaded with approximately 60% of the total trailer load; My Silverado should be loaded with approximately 40% of the total trailer load. Never exceed the maximum weight limits of the trailer or trailer towing equipment. Improper loading can result in damage to your vehicle and/or personal injury. Check weights and loading at a commercial scale or highway patrol office equipped with scales. • An improperly loaded trailer can cause loss of vehicle control. It's important to have the correct hitch equipment. Crosswinds, large trucks going by, and rough roads are a few reasons why you’ll need the right hitch. Here are some rules to follow: • Will you have to make any holes in the body of your vehicle when you install a trailer hitch? If you do, then be sure to seal the holes later when you remove the hitch. If you don’t seal them, deadly carbon monoxide (CO) from your exhaust can get into your vehicle, as well as dirt and water. The bumpers on My Silverado are not intended for hitches. Do not attach rental hitches or other bumper-type hitches to them. Use only a frame mounted hitch that does not attach to the bumper. Safety chains You should always attach chains between your vehicle and your trailer. Cross the safety chains under the tongue of the trailer so that the tongue will not drop to the road if it becomes separated from the hitch. Instructions about safety chains may be provided by the hitch manufacturer or by the trailer manufacturer. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation for attaching safety chains. Always leave just enough slack so you can turn with your trailer. And, never allow safety chains to drag on the ground. Trailer brakes If your trailer weighs more than the maximum trailer weight without trailer brakes loaded, then it needs its own brakes and they must be adequate. Be sure to read and follow the instructions for the trailer brakes so you’ll be able to install, adjust and maintain them properly. Don’t tap into your vehicle's brake system. My Silverado WARNING - Trailer brakes Do not use a trailer with its own brakes unless you are absolutely certain that you have properly set up the brake system. This is not a task for amateurs. Use an experienced, competent trailer shop for this work. Maximum trailer Without trailer brakes 453 (1000) weight With trailer brakes 1587 (3500) Maximum permissible static vertical load on the coupling device 158 (350) CAUTION Pulling a trailer improperly can damage your vehicle and result in costly repairs not covered by your warranty. To pull a trailer correctly, follow the advice in this section. Your vehicle can tow a trailer. To identify what the vehicle trailering capacity is for your vehicle, you should read the information in “Weight of the Trailer” that appears later in this section. Remember that trailering is different than just driving your vehicle by itself. Trailering means changes in handling, durability, and fuel economy. Successful, safe trailering requires correct equipment, and it has to be used properly.
