Key Code
The vehicle will be equipped with a

For specific key code information,
contact your dealer.
The vehicle will be equipped with a
key cylinder in the ignition lock, the
driver door, and trunk lid. Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) is a standard
feature and operates all doors and
the trunk lid. SEO AMF, six
additional RKE transmitters, may
have been ordered with your
vehicle. See your dealer for
additional information regarding
availability of more RKE units for the
vehicle.
The RKE transmitter for the police
vehicle has the vehicle locator/panic
alarm button disabled. The horn will
not sound and the exterior lights will
not flash when the button is
pressed.
Remote Keyless Entry
Transmitter Programming
SEO AMF
Do not operate or program the
transmitters in the vicinity of other
vehicles that are in the keyless
entry program mode. This prevents
the programming of the transmitters
to the incorrect vehicle.
Up to eight transmitters may be
programmed to the RKE on police
package equipped vehicles.
Verify that the proper transmitters
are learned to the vehicle. Do not
learn a transmitter with a remote
start button to a vehicle that does
not have remote start.

If the vehicle is equipped with the
theft-deterrent system (Option UA6),
an audible alarm will occur when the
key instead of the RKE transmitter
is used to open the trunk. See your
dealer to disable the audible alarm.

Questions and Answers
About Airbags and
Specialty Law
Enforcement Vehicles
Q: Can equipment such as radar
devices, video cameras, and
radio trees be mounted in a
specialty vehicle equipped
with a front outboard
passenger frontal airbag?
A: Yes, but care must be taken to
properly mount the equipment
outside of the airbag
deployment zone.
Q: What is the airbag
deployment zone?
A: The term deployment zone
describes the space an airbag
takes up when fully inflated.
Airbags need room to work
properly, and anything in the
deployment zone such as
improperly mounted equipment
can greatly affect the
performance of the airbag.
{
Warning
Airbags inflate with great force,
faster than the blink of an eye. No
objects, such as shotguns, should
be placed over or near the airbag
covers. Equipment mounted too
close to an inflating airbag could
prevent the airbag from operating
properly to protect the occupants
or could be forced into an
occupant or break and become a
dangerous projectile, causing
severe injury or even death. To
help prevent injury and to allow
the airbag to perform as it was
designed, do not mount
equipment inside the airbag
deployment zones.
Q: How can I identify the airbag
deployment zone in my
vehicle?
A: See Airbag Deployment
Diagrams 0 8 for more
information. The diagrams
provide the approximate
dimensions of the deployment
Chevrolet Impala Limited Police Package (GMNA-Localizing-U.S.-9085361) -
2016 - crc - 3/24/15
6 Seats and Restraints
zones for your specialty vehicle.
Before doing any service work,
including the installation of any
equipment, consult the
appropriate service manual.
Q: Is it possible to shield
equipment so it does not
interfere with airbag
deployment?
A: While shielding may protect
certain equipment from being
damaged or dislodged, it may
also negatively affect how an
airbag inflates. Therefore, we
cannot recommend the
placement of any equipment in
the deployment zone, even
when shielding.
Q: Can the installation of push
bumpers on the front end of
the vehicle affect the
deployment of the airbag?
A: General Motors is not aware of
adverse effects during crash
events from the many push
bumpers that have been
installed on GM police vehicles.
Because there are many styles
of push bumpers available with
varying crash characteristics,
installation of push bumpers may
or may not affect deployment
timing of the airbags. Push
bumpers should be mounted to
avoid modifying the vehicle
structure and interfering with the
front airbag sensors mounted on
the upper radiator support cross
member. Two front impact
sensors are installed in GM
vehicles. Do not relocate or
disconnect the front sensors.
The location and orientation of
the front sensors are critical for
correct operation of the airbag
system. Avoid mounting
components on or near the
sensors. Push bumper styles
with vertical pushing members
that are in fore-aft alignment with
the front airbag sensors are not
recommended.
See Adding Equipment to the
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle in the
owner manual for more information.
Customer-Installed
Equipment
Before installing equipment, read
the following.
Caution
GM approved service procedures
must be followed to remove and
reinstall the instrument panel to
the pad to ensure proper airbag
deployment.
Caution
Equipment mounted to the
instrument panel top pad must not
exceed 3.6 kg (8.0 lbs).
Caution

movement of the driver side
instrument panel top pad when

the airbag deploys, equipment
should be securely mounted only
to the top pad.
Caution
Do not place equipment on the
passenger side of the instrument
panel top pad because the edge
of it rises when the airbag
deploys.
Caution
Do not mount equipment on the
passenger side of the instrument
panel top pad deployment zone.
Equipment should not be
mounted on or around the
passenger airbag opening
because of a deploying airbag. To
allow the airbag to perform as it
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
was designed, do not mount
equipment inside the airbag
deployment zone.
Caution
Passenger airbag contacts inside
rearview mirror at the beginning
of deployment. Video cameras
and other small equipment should
be securely mounted outside the
airbag zone.
Caution
The police vehicle has roof-rail
airbags. Do not mount a security
barrier such that the ends of the
barrier or brackets are within the
roof-rail deployment zones.
Caution
Avoid installing wiring for roof-rail
emergency lighting or radio
antennas that may restrict the
proper deployment of the roof-rail
airbags.
Caution
The police vehicle has
seat-mounted side impact airbags
for the driver and passenger front
seat positions. Restricting the
cover from opening prevents
proper deployment of the
seat-mounted side impact airbag.
Do not cover or restrict the
seat-mounted side impact airbag
cover on the outboard side of the
seatback.

18 Driving and Operating
Ride Control Systems
Traction Control/
Electronic Stability
Control
System Operation
The vehicle has a Traction Control
System (TCS) and an Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system.
These systems help limit wheel slip
and assist the driver in maintaining
control, especially on slippery road
conditions.
TCS activates if it senses that any
of the drive wheels are spinning or
beginning to lose traction. When this
happens, TCS applies the brakes to
the spinning wheels and reduces
engine power to limit wheel spin.
ESC activates when the vehicle
senses a difference between the
intended path and the direction the
vehicle is actually traveling. ESC
selectively applies braking pressure
to any one of the vehicle wheel
brakes to assist the driver in
keeping the vehicle on the
intended path.
If cruise control is being used and
TCS or ESC begins to limit wheel
spin, cruise control will disengage.
Cruise control may be turned back
on when road conditions allow.
Both systems come on
automatically when the vehicle is
started and begins to move. The
systems may be heard or felt while
they are operating or while
performing diagnostic checks. This
is normal and does not mean there
is a problem with the vehicle.
It is recommended to leave both
systems on for normal driving
conditions, but it may be necessary
to turn TCS off if the vehicle gets
stuck in sand, mud, ice, or snow.
See If the Vehicle is Stuck under
Driving in the owner manual and
Turning the Systems Off and On
later in this section.
The indicator light for both systems
is in the instrument cluster. This
light will:
.
Flash when TCS is limiting
wheel spin.
.
Flash when ESC is activated.
.
Turn on and stay on when either
system is not working.
If either system fails to turn on or to
activate, a message displays in the
Driver Information Center (DIC),
and
d comes on and stays on to
indicate that the system is inactive
and is not assisting the driver in
maintaining control. The vehicle is
safe to drive, but driving should be
adjusted accordingly.
If
d comes on and stays on:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and wait
15 seconds.

3. Start the engine.
Drive the vehicle. If
d comes on
and stays on, the vehicle may need
more time to diagnose the problem.
If the condition persists, see your
dealer.
Turning the Systems Off
and On
The TCS/ESC button is on the
instrument panel.
Caution
Do not repeatedly brake or
accelerate heavily when TCS is
off. The vehicle driveline could be
damaged.
To turn off TCS and ESC, press and

system will not turn off until the
wheels stop spinning.
To turn TCS and ESC on again,
press and release the
