When your engine is
not running, but the ignition'is on (in the
RUN position), this
gage shows
your
battery's state of
charge in DC volts.
When the engine is running, the gage shows the condition of the charging
system. Readings between the low and high warning zones indicate the
normal operating range.
Readings in the low warning zone may occur when a large number of
electrical accessories are operating in the vehicle and the engine is left at an
idle for an extended period. This condition is normal since
the charging
system is not able to provide full power at engine idle.
As engine speeds are
increased, this condition should correct itself as higher engine speeds allow
the charging system to create maximum power.
You can only drive for
a short time with the reading in either warning zone.
If you must drive, turn
off all unnecessary accessories.
Readings in either warning zone indicate a possible problem in the electrical
system. Have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible.
Luggage Carrier (Option)
If you have a luggage carrier, you can load things on top of your vehicle.
The luggage carrier
has slats, side rails and
cross rails attached to
the roof to secure
cargo. The moveable
tie downs, attached to
the side rails, should
be used to secure loads to the luggage
carrier.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Use GM accessory racks that are compatible with your luggage carrier for
transporting sports equipment. These are available through your
GM dealer.
Remove the center
rubber strips
in the
cross rails and attach
the
GM accessory
rack to the nut plates
provided through the center slots (four per
cross rail).
The tap plates can be moved to accommodate various positioning by sliding
them inside the cross rail to the desired locations before mou\
nting the
accessory rack.
You can adjust the cross rails to handle different size loads. Just loosen the
slider knobs at each end of the cross rail and move them where you want
them. Make sure both sides of the cross rail are even, then tighten the slider
knobs.
Be sure the cargo is properly loaded.
Carrying small, heavy loads on the roof is not recommended.
0 Tie the load to the moveable tie down, (two per each side of the side
rails). Use the cross rails only to keep the load from sliding.
If you need to carry long items, move the cross rails as far apart as
possible. Tie the load to the moveable
tie downs provided in the side
rails. Also tie the load to the bumpers.
Do not tie the load so tightly that
the cross rails or side rails are damaged.
NOTICE:
Loading cargo that weighs more than 200 pounds (91 kg) on the
luggage carrier may damage your vehicle. When you carry large
things, never let them hang over the rear or the sides of your
vehicle. Load your cargo
so that it rests on the slats and does not
scratch
or damage the vehicle.
Put the cargo against the side rails and fasten it securely to the
luggage carrier. Put the main weight as far forward as you can.

more information on vehicle capacity and loading,
see “Loading Your
Vehicle’’ in the Index.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo as you’re driving, check
now and then to
make sure the luggage carrier and cargo are still securely fastened.
Trailer Wiring Harness
Your vehicle will have a 5-wire and may have a 7-wire harness.
The light duty trailer wiring is a 5-wire harness assembly taped and bundled
at the left corner
of the vehicle. The harness has no connector, and you
should have
a qualified service person wire your harness for you.
The heavy duty trailer wiring is
a 7-wire harness assembly. It is stored
under the vehicle, along the passenger-side frame crossmember on
two-door vehicles and on the driver-side corner frame crossmember on
four-door vehicles. It has a 30-amp feed wire with an inline fuse located by
the junction block. See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in
the Index.
Both the 5-wire harness and the 7-wire harness have no connector and
should be wired by a qualified service person. Attach the harness to the
trailer, then tape or strap
it to your vehicle’s frame rail. Be sure you leave it
loose enough
so the wiring doesn’t bend or break, but not so loose that it
drags on the ground.
Store the harness
in its original place. Wrap the harness together and tie it
neatly
so it won’t be damaged.

Understanding Radio Reception
FM stereo will give you the best sound. But FM signals will reach only
about
10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). And, tall buildings or hills can interfere
with
FM signals, causing the sound to come and go.
The range for most AM stations is greater than for
FM, especially at night.
The longer range, however, can cause stations to interfere with each other.
AM can pick up noise from things like storms and power lines.
Try reducing
the treble
to reduce this noise if you ever get it.
AM Stereo means the Delco@ system can receive C-QUAM@stereo
broadcasts. Many AM stations around the count use C-QUAM@ to
produce stereo, though some do not. (C-QUAM
2 is a registered trademark
of Motorola, Inc.)
If your DelcoB system can get C-QUAM@, your
“STEREO” light will come on when you’re receiving it.
Be aware that hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable until
it is too late. Your hearing can adapt to higher volumes of sound. Sound that
seems normal can be loud and harmful to your hearing. Take precautions by
adjusting the volume control on your radio to a safe sound level before your
hearing adapts to it.

Be sure the load is secured properly, so driving on the off-road terrain
You’ll find other important information in this manual. See “Vehicle
Loading,’’ “Luggage Carrier” and “Tires” in the Index.
Traveling to Remote Areas
It makes sense to plan your trip, especially when going to a remote area.
Know the terrain and plan your route. You are much less likely to get bad
surprises. Get accurate maps of trails and terrain. Try to learn of any
blocked
or closed roads.
It’s also a good idea to travel with at least one other vehicle.
If something
happens to one
of them, the other can help quickly.
Does your vehicle have a winch?
If so, be sure to read the winch
instructions. In
a remote area, a winch can be handy if you get stuck. But
you’ll want to know how
to use it properly.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Winter Driving
Here are some tips for winter driving:
Have your vehicle in good shape for winter. Be sure your engine
coolant mix is correct.
You may want to put winter emergency supplies in your vehicle.
Include an ice scraper, a small brush or broom, a supply of windshield
washer fluid, a rag, some winter outer clothing, a small shovel,
a flashlight,
a red cloth, and a couple of reflective warning triangles. And,
if you will be
driving under severe conditions, include a small bag
of sand, a piece of old
carpet or a couple
of burlap bags to help provide traction. Be sure you
properly secure these items in your vehicle.
Driving on Snow or Ice
Most of the time, those places where your tires meet the road probably have
good traction.
However, if there is snow or ice between your tires and the road,
you can
have a very slippery situation. You’ll have a lot less traction or “grip” and
will need to be very careful.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Driving with a Trailer
lowing a trailer requires a certain amount of experience. Before setting \
out
for the open road, you’ll want to get to know your rig. 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 as responsive as your vehicle is by itself.
Before you start, check the trailer hitch and platform (and attachments),
safety chains, electrical connector, 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
trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and
that the lights and any trailer brakes are still working.
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.
