Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Starter Switch
1. Before you start, be sure you have enough room around the vehicle.
2. Firmly apply both the parking brake (see “Parking Brake” in the Index
if necessary) and the regular brake.
NOTE:
Do not use the accelerator pedal, and be ready to turn off the
engine immediately if it starts.
3. On automatic transmission vehicles, try to start the engine in each gear.
The starter should work only in
PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N). If the
starter works in any other position, your vehicle needs service.
On manual transmission vehicles, put the shift lever in
NEUTRAL (N),
push the clutch down halfway and try to start the engine. The starter
should work only when the clutch is pushed down all the way to the
floor.
If the starter works when the clutch isn’t pushed all the way
down, your vehicle needs service.
Steering Column Lock
While parked, and with the parking brake set, try to turn the key to LOCK
in each shift lever position.
a With an automatic transmission, the key should turn to LOCK only
when the shift lever is in
PARK (P).
On vehicles with a key release button, try to turn the key to LOCK without
pressing the button. The key should turn to LOCK only with the key button
depressed.
On
all vehicles, the key should come out only in LOCK.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Parking Brake and Automatic Transmission PARK (P)
Mechanism Check
Park on a fairfy steep hill, with the vehicle facing downhill. Keeping your
foot on the regular brake, set the parking brake.
To check the parking brake: With the engine running and transmission
in
NEUTRAL (N), slowly remove foot pressure from the regular brake
pedal.
Do this until the vehicle is held by the parking brake only.
To check the PARK (P) mechanism’s holding ability: Shift to PARK
(P). Then release all brakes.
Lap and Shoulder Belts Condition and Operation
Inspect belt system, including: webbing, buckles, latch plates, retractors,
guide loops and anchors. Have a belt assembly replaced if the webbing has
been cut or otherwise damaged.
Part C: Periodic Maintenance Inspections
Listed below are inspections and services which should be perfo\
rmed at
least twice a year (for instance, each spring and fall). You should let your
GM dealer’s service department or other qualified service center do these
jobs. Make sure any necessary repairs are completed at once.
Steering and Suspension Inspection
Inspect the front and rear suspension and steering system for damaged,
loose or missing parts, signs of wear, or lack of lubrication. Inspect power
steering lines
and hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing,
etc. (On vehicles equipped with manual steering gear, check for seal
leakage
.) Lubricate the steering linkage.
