Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance
The wheels on your vehicle were
aligned and balanced carefully at the
factory
to give you the longest tire life
and best overall performance.
In most cases, you will not need to have
your wheels aligned again. However, if
you notice unusual tire wear or your
vehicle pulling one way or the other, the
alignment may need
to be reset. If you
notice your vehicle vibrating when
driving on
a smooth road, your wheels
may need to be rebalanced.
Wheel Replacement
Replace any wheel that is bent, cracked
or badly rusted.
If wheel nuts keep
coming loose, the wheel, wheel bolts,
and wheel nuts should be replaced.
If
the wheel leaks air, replace it (except
some aluminum wheels, which can
sometimes be repaired). See your
Chevrolet dealer if any
of these
conditions exist.
Your dealer will know the kind of wheel
you need.
Each new wheel should have the same
load carrying capacity, diameter, width,
offset, and be mounted the same way as
the one it replaces.
If you need to replace any of your
wheels, wheel bolts, or wheel nuts,
replace them only with new
GM
original equipment parts. This way, you
will be sure
to have the right wheel,
wheel bolts, and wheel nuts for your
Chevrolet model.
I NOTICE:
The wrong wheel can also cause
problems with bearing life, brake
cooling, speedometer/odometer
calibration, headlight aim, bumper
height, vehicle ground clearance,
and tire or tire chain clearance to
the body and chassis.

Cleaning the Inside of Your
Chevrolet
Use a vacuum cleaner often to get rid of
dust and loose dirt. Wipe vinyl or
leather with
a clean, damp cloth.
Your Chevrolet dealer has two GM
cleaners, a solvent-type spot lifter and a
foam-type powdered cleaner. They will
clean normal spots and stains very well.
Do not use them on vinyl or leather.
Here are some cleaning tips:
Always read the instructions on the
cleaner label.
Clean up stains as soon as you can -
before they set.
Use a clean cloth or sponge, and
change to a clean area often.
A soft
brush may be used

don’t saturate the stained area.
If a ring forms after spot cleaning,
clean the entire area immediately or it
will set.

sponge.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NOTICE:
Be careful with a hair dryer or heat
lamp. You could scorch the fabric.
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 a solvent:
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.)
Fabric hotection
Your Chevrolet has upholstery that has
been treated with Scotchgard’” Fabric
Protector, a 3M product. ScotchgardTM
protects fabrics by repelling oil and
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
Minnesota, 1-800-642-6167).
Special Cleaning Problems
Greasy or Oily Stains
Such as grease, oil, butter, margarine,
shoe polish, coffee with cream, chewing
gum, cosmetic creams, vegetable oils,
wax crayon, tar and asphalt.
Carefully scrape off excess stain.
Follow the solvent-type instructions
Shoe polish, wax crayon, tar and

asphalt will stain if left on a vehicle
seat fabric. They should be removed
as soon as possible. Be careful,
because the cleaner will dissolve them
and may cause them to spread.
Non-Greasy Stains
Such as catsup, coffee (black), egg,
fruit,
fruit juice, milk, soft drinks, wine,
vomit, urine and blood.
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

waterhaking 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
Such as candy, ice cream, mayonnaise,
chili sauce and unknown stains.
Carefully scrape off excess stain, then
clean with cool water and allow to

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.
Windshield 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.
