drinks, wine, vomit, urine and blood can be removed as follows:
0
0
0
0
Carefully scrape off excess stain, then sponge the soiled area with cool
water.
If a stain remains, follow the foam-type instructions described earlier.
If an odor lingers after cleaning vomit or urine, treat the area with a
watedbaking soda solution:
1 teaspoon (5 ml) of baking soda to 1 cup
(250 ml) of lukewarm water.
If needed, clean lightly
with solvent-type cleaner.
Combination Stains
Stains caused by candy, ice cream, mayonnaise, chili sauce and unknown
stains can be removed as follows:
Carefully scrape off excess stain, then clean with cool water and allow
to dry.
0 If a stain remains, clean it with solvent-type cleaner.
Cleaning Vinyl
Use warm water and a clean cloth.
0 Rub with a clean, damp cloth to remove dirt. You may have to do it
more than once.
Things like tar, asphalt and shoe polish will stain if you don’t get them
off quickly. Use
a clean cloth and a solvent-type vinyl cleaner.
Cleaning the Top of the Instrument Panel
Use only mild soap and water to clean the top surfaces of the instrument
panel. Sprays containing silicones or waxes may cause annoying reflections
in the windshield and even make it difficult to see through the windshield
under certain conditions.

The fuse block is in
the instrument panel
on the driver’s side.
Remove
the cover
with a screwdriver.
You
can remove fuses
with a fuse extractor.
To remove fuses if you don’t have a fuse extractor, hold the end of the fuse
between your thumb and index finger and pull straight out.
Be sure
to use the correct fuse. If you ever have a problem on the road and
don’t have a spare fuse,
you can “borrow” one of the correct value. Just pick
some feature of your vehicle that
you can get along without-like the radio
or cigarette lighter-and use its fuse, if it is
of the value you need. Replace
it as soon as you can. See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in this section.
Capacities and Specification Charts
Replacement Parts
Replacement part numbers listed in this section are based on the latest
information available at the time
of printing, and are subject to change. If a
part listed
in this manual is not the same as the part used in your vehicle
when
it was built, or if you have any questions, please contact your GM
truck dealer.
