To Check Brake Fluid
You can check the brake
fluid without taking off the
cap. Just look at the
windows on the brake fluid
reservoir. The fluid levels should be above
MIN. If
they aren’t, have your brake
system checked to see
if
there is a leak.
After work is done on the brake hydraulic system, make
sure the levels are above
MIN and below the top of each
window.
What to Add
When you do need brake fluid, use only DOT-3 brake
fluid
-- such as Delco Supreme 1 l@ (GM Part
No. 1052535). Use new brake fluid from a sealed
container only, and always clean the brake fluid
reservoir cap before removing it.
I NOTICE:
Don’t let someone put in the wrong kind of
fluid, For example, just
a few drops of
mineral-based oil, such as engine oil, in
your brake system can damage brake
system parts
so badly that they’ll have to be
replaced.
0 Brake fluid can damage paint, so be careful
not to spill brake fluid on your vehicle.
If
you do, wash it off immediately. See
“Appearance Care” in the Index.

windshield from outside your vehicle. The VIN also
appears
on the Vehicle Certification and Service Parts
labels and the certificates of title and registration.
Engine Identification
The eighth character in your VIN is the engine code.
This code will help you identify your engine,
specifications, and replacement parts.
0 the model designation,
paint information, and
0 a list of all production options and special
equipment.
Be sure that this label
is not removed from the vehicle.
Add-on Electrical Equipment

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by fuses, circuit breakers and thermal links
in the wiring itself. This greatly reduces the chance of
fires caused by electrical problems.
The main fuse box in your engine compartment is on the
right side. It protects all electrical loads.
For access to the main fuses, pull off
the cover. A spare
fuse
is also inside the fuse box. Another
fuse box is under the left
side of the instrument
panel.
The fuses here protect each separate circuit
including headlamps. If you have electrical failure,
check here first.

Gem Section 7 Maintenance Schedule
IMPORTANT:
KEEP ENGINE OIL
AT THE PROPER
RECOMMENDED
This section covers the maintenance required for your
Geo. Your vehicle needs these services to retain
its
safety, dependability and emission control performance.
Introduction
Your Vehicle and the Environment
Proper vehicle maintenance not only helps to keep your
vehicle
in good working condition, but also helps the
environment. All recommended maintenance procedures
are important. Improper vehicle maintenance or the
removal
of important components can significantly
affect the quality of the
air we breathe. Improper fluid
levels or even the wrong tire inflation can increase the
level of emissions from your vehicle.
To help protect our
environment, and to help keep your vehicle in good
condition, please maintain your vehicle properly.
Have you purchased the GM Protection Plan .? The Plan
supplements your new vehicle warranties. See your
Chevrolet/Geo dealersfor details.
