Wipe with a clean cloth.
Using Solvent-Type Cleaner on
Fabric
First, see if you have to use solvent-type
cleaner at all. Some spots and stains will
clean
off better with just water and mild
soap.
If you need to use it, then:
Gently scrape excess soil from the
trim material with a clean, dull knife
or scraper. Use very little cleaner,
light pressure and clean cloths (preferably cheesecloth). Cleaning
should start at the outside of the stain,
“feathering” toward the center. Keep
changing to a clean section
of the
cloth.
When you clean a stain from fabric,
immediately dry the area with an air
hose, hair dryer, or heat lamp to help
prevent a cleaning ring. (See the
previous
NOTICE.)

Your Chevrolet has upholstery that has
been treated with ScotchgardTM Fabric Protector, a 3M product. Scotchgard”
protects fabrics by repelling

water, which are the carriers of most
stains. Even with this protection,
you
still need to clean your upholstery often
to keep it looking new.
Further information
on cleaning is
available by calling 1-800-433-3296 (in

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Headlight Wiring
The headlight wiring is protected by a
circuit breaker in the fuseblock. An
electrical overload will cause the lights
to go on and
off, or in some cases to
remain
off. If this happens, have your
headlight system checked right away.
To access the headlight circuit breaker,
squeeze the plastic clip together and
remove.
Windsheld Wipers
The windshield wiper motor is protected
by a circuit breaker and a fuse.
If the
motor overheats due to heavy snow, etc.,
the wiper will stop until the motor
cools.
If the overload is caused by some
electrical problem, have it fixed.
Power Windows and Other
Power Options
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect
the power windows and other power
accessories. When the current load is
too heavy, the circuit breaker opens and
closes, protecting the circuit until the
problem is fixed.

Listed below are inspections and services which should be performed 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.

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE
Inspect the front and rear suspension and steering system for \
damaged, loose or missing parts,
signs of wear, or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering lines and hoses for proper
hookup, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Clean and then in\
spect the drive axle boot seals for
damage, tears or leakage. Replace seals
if necessary.
Inspect the complete exhaust system. Inspect the body near
the exhaust system. Look for broken,
damaged, missing or out-of-position parts as well as open seams, holes, loose connections, or
other conditions which could cause a heat build-up in the floor pan or could let exhaust fumes
into the vehicle. See the
Index under Engine Exhaust.
Inspect the throttle linkage for interference or binding, and for damaged or missing parts.
Replace parts
as needed.
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and hoses for \
proper hookup, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotors for \
surface condition. Also
inspect drum brake linings for wear and cracks. Inspect other brake parts, including drums,
wheel cylinders, calipers, parking brake, etc. Check parking brake adjustment. You may need to
have your brakes inspected more often
if your driving habits or conditions result in frequent
braking.
NOTE: A low brake fluid level can indicate worn disc brake pads which \
may need to be
serviced. Also,
if the brake system warning light stays on or comes on, something may be wrong
with the brake system. See the
Index under Brake System Warning Light. If your anti-lock brake
system warning light stays on, comes on or flashes, something may be wrong with the anti-lock
brake system. See the
Index under Anti-Lock Brake System Warning Light.

Chevrolet regularly sends its dealers
useful service bulletins about Chevrolet
products. Chevrolet monitors product
performance in the field. We then
prepare bulletins for servicing our products better. Now, you can get these
bulletins too.
Bulletins cover various subjects. Some
pertain to the proper use and care of
your vehicle. Some describe costly repairs. Others describe inexpensive repairs which, if done
on time with the
latest parts, may avoid future costly
repairs. Some bulletins tell a technician
how to repair a new or unexpected
condition. Others describe a quicker
way to fix your vehicle. They can help a
technician service your vehicle better. Most bulletins apply to conditions
affecting a small number
of cars or
trucks. Your Chevrolet dealer or
a
qualified technician may have to
determine
if a specific bulletin applies to
your vehicle.

If you don’t want to buy all the PSP’s
issued
by Chevrolet for all car or truck
models in the model year, you can buy individual PSP’s, such as those which
may pertain to a particular model. To do
this, you will first need to see our index
of PSP’s. It provides a variety of
information. Here’s what you’ll find in
the index and how
you can get one:
What bu’ll Find in the Index
A list of all PSPs published by
Chevrolet in a model year (1989 or
later). PSP’s covering
all models of
Chevrolet cars or light trucks (less
than
l0,OOO pounds (4 536 kg)
GVWR) are listed in the same index.
Ordering information so you can buy
the specific PSP’s you may want.
Price information for the PSP’s you
may want to buy.
How bu Can Get an Index
Indexes are published periodically. Most
of the PSPs which could potentially
apply to the most recent Chevrolet
models will be listed in the most recent
publication for that model year. This
means you may want to wait until the
end of the model year before ordering
an index, if you are interested
in buying
PSP’s pertaining to a current model year
car or truck.
Some PSP’s pertaining to a particular
model year vehicle may be published in
later years, and these would be listed in
the later year’s index. When you order
an index for a model year that is not
over yet, we’ll send you the most
recently published issue. Check the
ordering form for indexes for earlier
model years.
