Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine DMNG IN THE RAIN
Rain and wet roads can mean driving trouble. On a wet road you can't
stop, accelerate or
turn as well because your tire-to-road traction isn't as
good as on dry roads. And, if your tires don't have much tread left, you'll
get even less traction. It's dwa~s wise to go slower and be cautious if rain
starts to fall while
you are driving. The surface may get wet suddenly when
your reflexes ;u'e tuned for driving on dry pavcment.
The heavier the rain, the harder it is to see. Even if your windshield wiper
blades are in
good shape, a heavy rain can make it harder to see road
signs and traffic signals, pavement markings, the edge of the road. and
cven peoplc walking.
It's wise to keep vour wiping quiptnent in good shape and keep your
windshield wash&
tank filled. Replace your windshield wiper inserts when
they show signs c. of streaking or missing areas on the windshield, or when
strips
of rubber start to separatc from the inserts.

Glass should be clcaned often. GM Glass Clcaner (GM Part
No. 1050427) or a liquid household glass cleaner will remove normal
tobacco smoke
and dust films.
Don't use abrasive cleaners on glass, because they may cause scratches.
Avoid placing decals on the inside rear window, since they may have to be
scraped off later. If abrasive cleaners are used on the inside of the rear
window, an electric defogger element may be damaged. Any temporary
license should not
be attached across the defogger grid.
