You can read battery voltage on your
voltmeter. If
it reads less than 1 I volts or
more than
16 volts while your engine is
running, and
it stays there, you may have
a problem with the electrical charging
system. Have
it checked right away.
Driving with the voltmeter reading
in a
warning zone could drain your battery.
If you idle your engine for a while, the
voltmeter reading might move into the
yellow zone.
If the reading stays in the
yellow zone while you are driving, you
may have a problem with
the electrical
charging system. Have
it checked. While
the voltmeter reads
in the yellow zone,
your battery may
not be able to power
certain electrical accessories, like ABS.
(If this happens, your ABS INOP light
will come
on, See "Anti-Lock Brake
System Warning Light"
in this part.)

System
Your Chevrolet's flow-through ventilation
system supplies outside air into the
vehicle when
it is moving. Outside air
will also enter the vehicle when the heater
or the air conditioning fan is running.

Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free
of ice, snow, or any other obstruction
(such as leaves). The heater and
defroster will work far better, reducing
the chance of fogging the inside of
your windows.
When you enter a vehicle
in cold
weather, turn the fan control knob to
the right for
a few moments before
driving off. This helps clear the intake
ducts of snow and moisture, and
reduces the chance of fogging the
inside
of your windows.
D Keep the air path under the front seats
clear of objects. This helps air to
circulate throughout your vehicle.
Audio Systems
Your Delco@ audio system has been
designed to operate easily and give years
of listening pleasure. But you will get the
most enjoyment out of
it if you acquaint
yourself
with it first. Find out what your
Delco@ system can do and how to operate
all its controls, to be sure you’re getting
the most out of the advanced engineering
that went into
it.
