STOWING THINGS IN (OR ON) THE CAR
CAUTION: luggage or other cergo should not be piled higher than the seatbacks, When at all possible, luggage or cargo should be C8rrifHj in the trunk area. The filler panel or cargo cover, between the rear 88atback and the rear window should not be used to carry objects-even those that are small and light. All nems should be secured in place. This will help keep such things from being thrown about and Injurying people in the car during an accident. Cargo weight whether inside or on the roof, should be positioned as evenly as possible from front to rear.
ROOF LUGGAGE CARRIER
The optional roof luggage carrier is designed to allow loading of items onto the
roof
of your car. The roof luggage carrier does not increase the total load carrying
capacity of th e car , as shown opposite "Max Load" on the Tire Placard located
on the left front door. Be sure the total weight of the cargo on the roof, plus the
weight
of the cargo and passe ngers inside the car, plus the tongue load of any
trailer you are towing does
,1;10t exc_eed this "Max Load" vehicle capacity weight. See Section 5, page "5-11 for more information on Vehicle Loading . Also see the
infonnation on Trailer Towing
in Section 1 of this manual . if needed .
NOTICE:To helpayoid pOSSible damage, do not exceed 70 kilograms (1 50 pounds), cargo weight on the roof. Position the cargo in the luggage carrier as evenly as: pOssible. If carrying long items, never exceed car length and fasten such loads securely at the front and rear of the car, as well as to the luggage rack.
The roof luggage carrier consists of: five roof slats bolted to the top of the car,
two crossrails with knobs at each end th~t allow the crossrails to be adjusted or removed, and six' adjustable tie-downs.
The operation
of each item is as follows: the crossrails are easily adjusted forward
or rearward in order to help position your load. To move the crossrails , rotate
the large adjustable knob, ··No. 3" in the figure above. counterclockwise to loosen
(or remove) the crossrails and 'clockwise to tighten down the cros srails. Attached
to the top
of the crossrails are two adjustable tie-downs, "No.4" in the figure.
Ther e is also one adjustable lie-down located in the center of each outer roof slat
assembly (also called
"No.4" in the figure) . The tie-downs may be easily moved
forward and rearward within the outer slat assembly and across the top
of the
crossrails to the desired position.
To move the tie-down . rotate it countetclockwise
to loosen and clockwise to tighten down. If needed to sec ure a certain type of lead,
the tie-downs on the
crossratls may be removed and repos itioned on the outer roof
slat assemblies. While underway, periodically check to make sure that
the crossrails and the tie-downs are securely fastened to help
prevent loss of cargo, or the roof rack equipment itself.
The crossrails may be removed when not in use and stowed in the trunk or behind
the second seat on the rear load floor (with the carg o cover installed) in hatchback
style

or electric sparks. Also do not smoke near a ,battery. Batteries give off a gas which is flammable and explosive.
• To lessen the risk of injury incase an explosion does occur, wear eye protection or shield your eyes when working near any battery. Do not lean over a battery.
• Do not allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin, fabrics, or painted surfaces
because battery fluid is a corrOsiVe acid. Flush any contacted area with water immediately a,nd thoroughly. Also get medical help if eyes are affected.
• To lessen the riskofa short circuit. remove rings, metal watch bands and otl:ler metal jewelry. Also do not allow metal tools to contact at the same time the positive battery terminal (or any metal connected to this terminal) and any other metal em either "ehicle. Make certain when attaching the jumper cable clamps rothe positive terminals of the batteries that neither clamp contacts any other metal.
• This
vehicle has a 12 volt battery and a negative ground electrical system. Make sure that the other vehicle als~ has a 12 volt battery and that the negative terminal, is .'grounc::ted(attached to a metal, part of the vehicle). Its owner's manual may give you that information, If unsure of the other vehicle's voltage (or if the voltage and/or ground on the other vehicle are different from your vehicle). do not try to jump startas personal injury or severe damage to electrical and electronic parts may result.
• If the discharged battery has filler caps. check the fluid level. ( 00 not check with an Op~tn flame and db not smoke .) Add clear drinking water to the proper level if low, and replace the caps before jump starting.
I. Position, the vehicle with'the good (charged)ba,.ttery so that the jump starting

off the ignition, apply the parking brake firmly, and shift the automatic transaxleto "p"o.?ark) (manual transaxle to "N"(Neutral) in both vE-hicles.
3. Jumper Cable Connection Instructions (See illustration) .
• Connect the first jumper cable from the positive" +" (red) terininal on
one battery to the positive "+" (red) terminal on the other battery.
Never, connect "+" (red) to "~" (black), or '\" to "+".
• Next, connect one end of the second cable to the grounded negative "."
(black) tenninal of the good (charged) battery.
• Lastly, connect the othetend of the second jumper cable to a solid,
stationary, metallic point on the engine of the vehicle with the discharged
battery but at a
point away from the battery --450 millimeters (18 '1
inches) or more from the battery if possible. Do not connect it to or attach it near pulleys, fans, or other parts that will move wHen the engine
is started. Don't touctt hot manifolds as they _can cause severe burns. If hot or moving parts can be avoided, the MOUNTING BRACKETS for
the Delcotron generator,
or the air conditioner compressor, ,generally
make a good point for-this final ground attachment. Take care that the

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine On all C-4 cars, a "CHECK ENGINE" light on the instrument panel is
designed to come on during engine starting , to let you know the bulb is working. (The light will stay on a short time after the engine starts.) If the light comes on while driving, service to the emission control system
may be required. See your Chevrolet dealer' as soon as possible for an inspection of the system. Continued driving without having the C-4 System serviced _ could eventually
cause damage
to the emission control system . It could also affect fuel
e conomy and drivabili -ty.
ENGINE OIL AND FILTER RECOMMENDATIONS • Engine oils' are labeled on 'the containers with various API (American
Petroleum Institute) designations 6f quality. Use engine oils that are labeled
5E or SE/CC. Do not use oils labeled only SA, 5B, 5C, SD, CA, CB, CC or CD; _or oils with the combination label SE and CD (SE/CD). Higher
quality oils labeled SF will be introduced soon (late 1979, or 1980). These SF oils are preferred and should be used when available.
• The oil and filter change intervals for your engine are based on the use of SE-quality or SF-quality oils and ,high- quality filters such as AC oil filters. Using oils other than SE-quality or SF-quality oils, or oil change intervals
longer than recommended. could reduce -engine life and might affect your
warranty.
• Your engine was filled with a high·quality engine oil when it was built. You do ,not have to change this oil before the suggested change period.
•
If your normal driving does nQt include one or more of the four "severe service" conditions listed below. change the oil every 7,500 miles (12 000 ' kilometers) or 12 months, whichever comes first. Change the oillilter at the
first oil change. then every second oil change, if mileage (7,500 miles or 12
000. kilom~ters) determines .w ,hen you change the oil. If _time (12 months)
determines when you change the oil, change the filter with every oil change.
• Change the oil and oil filter every 3,000 miles (4 800 kilometers) , or three
months if you often drive under one or more of these 'severe service·,~.
conditions: • Driving in dusty areas
• Towing ,3 trailer
• Frequent idling or idling for long periods
• Driving 4 miles (6 kilometers) br'less in freezing weather,o~other short trips in cold weather, where the engine does not thoTough ,ly warm up.
• Change the oil and oil filter as soon as -possible after driving in a dust
storm.
Oil Viscosity
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy. Lowec viscosity
engine oils can provide increased , fuel " economy; however, higher temperature
weather conditions require higher viscosity engine oils for satisf~ctory lubrication.
To. get the best fuel economy with your-1980 Chevrolet, -iou should use -,, ' .
fuel. 'saviiJ.&:_engine oil ohhe_ proper viscosity. These oils call_ be found. in serviCe
stations and other retail stores. They are-identified by words such as: "Energy Saving," "Conserves Gasoline," "Gas Saving," "Gasoline Saving," '''Friction
Reducing," "Improved Gasoline Mileage" or "Fuel Saving."
The following chart lists the engine ' oil viscosities recommended for the
temperature range you expect before the next oil change. For lemperalures above ,_18°C (O"F),SAE lOW-30 is -the preferred viscosity grade. Ircold-weather starting
problems
are encountered at temperatures below -lSoC ( oils may be required.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NOTICE: You cannot read the correct fluid level if you have just driven the car for a long time at high speed, in city traffic in hot weather, or if the car has been pulling a trailer. Wait. until the fluid has cooled down (about 30 minutes).
Remove the dipstick located on the driver's side forward of the cowl. Carefully
touch the wet end of the dipstick to find out if the fluid is cool, warm or hot. Wipe
it clean and push it back in until the cap seats. Pull
out the dipstick and read the
fluid level.
• If it felt cool or warm (about room temperature), the level should be
between the dimples above the "Full" mark.
• If it was too hot to hold. the level should be at or in the hatched area.
Add just enough DEXRON-®n fluid to fill the transaxle. It takes only 0.5 liter
(one pint)to raise the level from "Add" to "Full" with a hot transaxle.
Do not overfill the transaxle. Overfilling can cause foaming and loss of fluid, which
could result in transaxle damage.
Automatic Transaxle Drain Intervals
Change the transmission fluid and change the filter (or clean the screen) as
outlined in Section
A of the Maintenance Schedule folder.
ELECTRIC FAN
CAUTION: Keep hands, tools, and clothing away from the angine cooling fan to help prevent personal injury. This fan is electric and can come on whether or not the engine is running. The fan can start automatically in response to a heat sensor when the ignition is in the "Run" position.
ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
The coolant recovery system is standard. The coolant in the radiator expands with
heat, and the overflow collects in the recovery tank. When the system cools down,
the coolant
is drawn back into the radiator.
The cooling system was filled at the factory with a quality coolant that meets
GM Specification 1899-M. The cooling system is designed to use coolant (a mixture
of water and ethylene glycol antifreeze) rather than plain water. The coolant
solution should be used year round. It has many advantages, such as:
• provides freezing protection down to _37°C, (-34°P)
•
provides boiling protection up to 128QC, (262°P)
•
protects against rust and corrosion in the cooling system,
• maintains the proper engine temperature for efficient operation and emission
control, and
• allows proper operation of the coolant temperature light (or gage).
See Section A of the Maintenance Schedule folder to find out when the coolant
must
be replaced.
COOLING SYSTEM CARE
Check the cooling system at regular intervals, such as during fuel stops. You
usually do not need to remove the radiator cap to check the coolant level. Lift
the engine hood and look at the "see through" coolant recovery tank. When the
engine
is cold, the coolant level -should be at or slightly above the "Full Cold"
mark on the tank. When the engine has fully warmed up, the level should be at ')r slightly below the "Full Hot" mark on the tank. If the coolant level is low,

may be speeded by removing the drain plugs in the block.)
4. Close the drain valve (install block drain plugs, if removed). Add water until
the system is filled and run the engine until the upper radiator hose is hot again.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 several times until the drained liquid is nearly colorless.
6. Drain the system and then close the radiator drain valve tightly. (Install block
drain plugs, if removed.)
7. Disconnect all hoses from the coolant recovery tank. Remove the tank and
pour out any fluid. Scrub and clean the inside of the tank with soap and water.
Flush it well with clean water,
then drain it. Reinstall the tank and hoses.
8. Add enough water and ethylene glycol antifreeze (meeting GM Specification
1899-M)to provide the required cooling, freezing, and corrosion protection. Use a solution that is at least 50 percent antifreeze, but no more than 70
percent antifreeze. Fill the radiator to the base of the filler neck and fill the
coolant recovery
tank to the "Full Hot" mark. Put the recovery tank cap back
on.
9. Run the engine, with the radiator cap removed, until the upper radiator hose
is hot.
10. With the engine idling, add coolant to the radiator until it reaches the bottom
of the filler neck. Install the radiator cap, making sure the arrows on the cap line up with the overflow. tube.
It is the owner's responsibility to:
• Maintain cooling system freeze protection at _37°C (_34°F) to ensure
protection against corrosion and loss of coolant from boiling. (A SO/50
mixture of water and ethylene glycol antifreeze will provide freeze protection
to ~ 37°C ore -34°P.) You should do this even if you don't expect freezing
temperatures.
• Add ethylene glycol base antifreeze that meets GM Specification 1899-M
when antifreeze
hasto be added because of coolant loss or for more protection
' against freezing at temperatures lower than _37°C (-·J4°P).
NOTICE: Do not use alcohol or methanol-base antifreeze. or plain water alone. in your vehicle at any time. They will boil at a lower pOint than that at which the hot light indicator (or temperature gage) works. and they do not provide proper protection against corrosion.
Radiator Pressure Cap
The radiator cap, a 105 kPa(15 psi) pressure type, must be installed tightly,
otherwise coolant may be lost and damage to engine may result from overheating.
Radiator pressure caps should be checked periodically for proper operation.
If
replacement is required, an AC cap is recommended.
Thermostat
The engine coolant temperature is controlled by a thermostat. It stops coolant flow
through the radiator until a preset temperature is reached. This thermostat is
installed in
the engine coolant outlet on the engine block. The same thermostat is used in both winter and summer. When a replacement is needed, AC~Delco parts
are recommended.

If the air cleaner is not correctly installed, there could be II fire In the engine compartment (if there should happen to be a backfire), or other engine malfunction.
Power Steering System
Check the 'fluid level in the power steering pump at each engine oil change. Add GM :Power Steering Fluid, (Part Number GM 1050017) as needed:
, • Ifnuid is warmed up (abo ut 66°C or lSO"F --hot to the to uch), the fluid level
should be between the "Hot" and "Cold" marks on the filler cap indicat or.
• If cool (about 21°C or 70° F), the fluid level should be between the "Add" and "Cold" marks.
This fluid
does not need ' periodic changing.
Freedom Battery
Your new vehicle has a Delco FREEDOM battery. It needs no periodic
maint enance . Its
lOp is permanently sealed (except for two small vent holes) and
has no filler caps. You will never have to add water. .
The hydrometer (test indicat or) in the top of the battery provides information for
testing purposes only.
For full power needs at repla cement time, a Delco battery with ,the same catalog
number as shown on the original banery's label
is recommended.
CAUTION: FoUow the precautions listed in the Jump Starting Cautton {see the "'n Case of Emergency''' section o"f this manual, when working on or near the battery.
Personal injury (particularly to eyes) or property damage may result from battery explosion, battery acid, or electric.1 (short circuit) burns.
Hood latches and Hood Hinge
At the interval shown in the Maintenance Schedule lubricate hood latch assembly
and hood hinge assembly as follows :
1 . Wipe off any accumulation
of dir.t or contamination on latch parts.
2. Apply Lubriplate or equivalent to latch pilaf bolts and latch loc king
plate .
3. Apply light engine oil to all pivot points in release mechanism, as well
as primary

Maximum Luggage Compartment Load
Coupe 155 Pounds/70.2 Kilograms
Sedan 142 Pounds/64.5 Kilograms
NOTICE: Total combined weight of luggage compartment
load, luggage rack load (when-equipped) •. and passengers must not exceed the vehicle capacity weight (shown on the Tire Placard lOcated on the.left front door).
Inflation Pressure
The: cold inflation pressures listed on the Tire Placard provide for the best balance
of tire life, riding comfort. and vehicle handling under normal driving conditions.
If only one inflation pressure is recommended on the Tire Placard, this pressure
should be used for aU vehicle loading conditions. If your vehicle has two inflation
pressures listed on the placard, the "Max LDad" pressures can be used any time,
but must be used when you carry more passengers and cargo than is allowed in
the "Optional Pressures" section. The "Optional Pressures" can be used in lightly
loaded conditions by
'those who prefer the utmost in comfort. In all loading
conditions, use of the "Max Load" pressures will result in improved fuel economy.
Incorrect tire inflation pressures
can have adverse effects on tire life and_vehicle performance. Too Iowan" air pressure·"causes increased tire flexing and heat
build-up. This weakens the tire and increases the chance of damage or failure. It
can result in tire overloading, abnormal tire wear, adverse vehicle handling, and
reduced fuel mileage. 'I'oohigh
an air pressure can result in abnormal wear, harsh
ride, and also increase the chance of dar:nage from road hazards.
Tire inflation pressures should be checked (this includes the spare tire, unless it
is a stowaway spare) and whenever your vehicle is serviced. Always checJ<.,tire
inflation pressures when tires are "cold."
1. The "cold" tire inflation pressure applies to the tire pressure when a vehicle
has
not· been driven more than-one mile (1.6 kilometers) after sitting for three
hours or more.
2. It is normal for tire pressures to increase 30 to 60 kilopascals (4 to 8 pounds
per square inch)
or more when the tires become hot from driving. Do not "bleed" or reduce tire inflation pressures after driving your vehicle. Bleeding
reduces the
"cold" inflation pressure and increase tire flexing, which can
result in tire damage and failure.
3. FOr sustained driving at speeds of 75 mph to 85 mph (120 km/h to 140 km/h),in countries where such speeds are permitted by law, cold
inflation pressures must be increased
30 kPa (4 psi) above the cold inflation
pressures stated on the Tire Placard up to the maximum for each load
range stated in
the_ chart below.
Sustained speeds of 75 mph to 85 mph (120 km/h to 140 km/h) ARE
NOT ADVISED when the 30 kPa (4 psi) adjustment would require pressures greater than the maximum for each load range stated on the chart. Sustained
driving at speeds over 85 mph (140 km/h), where permitted by law. IS NOT ADVISED unless your vehicle is equipped with special high speed tires
available from many tire dealers.

The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers; and fusible thermal links in the wiring itself. This greatly reduces
the hazard of electrically caused fires in the automobile.
The fuse junction box is located under the right side of the instrument panel.
The
headlight wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in the light switch. An electrical overload will cause the lights to go on an,d off, or in some cases to remain off. If this happens , have your headlight wiring checked right away. Besides a fuse, the windshield wiper motor is also protected by a circuit breaker. If the motor overheats, due to overloading caused by heavy snow, etc., the wiper ·will remain stopped until the motor cools. Be sure to have the cause of the over· loading corrected. Circuit breakers for power windows and power door locks are located on the bulkhead in the engine
compartment.
