Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine LUGGAGE/CARGO LOAO CAPACITY
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.
4. Forproper inflation pressures when towing trailers, see page 1-11 in this
manuat

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To help you detect this, -your tires have bui1t-in tread wear indicato .fS that
appear between the tread grooves when the tread is 1.6 millimeters (2/32
inch)
or less . When the indicators appear in two or more adjacent grooves
at
three _ spots around the tire, the tire should be replaced .

2. The tread or sidewall is cracked, cut, or snagged deep enough to expose the
cord
or fabric.
3 . Your tire has a bump . bulge. or split.
4 . The tire has a puncture . cut ,
or other injury that can't be correctly repaired
because of the size
or location of the injury .
. Wheel Replacement
Damaged wheels must be replaced . For example. replace wheels if they are bent .
cracked .
or heavily rusted or if wheel nuts often become -loose . Also replace wheels
that leak air (except someaJuminum wheels which can be repaired;.-see your
authorized dealer).
Do not use bent wheels which have been straightened, and do not use inner tubes
in leaking wheels designed for tubeless tires. Such wheels may have structural
damage and could fail without warning. When replacing wheels for any reason,
the new wheels should
be equal in load limit, diameter, width, offset, and mounting
configurations to those originally installed on your vehicle.
A wheel
of the wrong size. or type may adversely affect wheel and. bearing life,
brake cooling, speedometer/odometer calibration,· stopping ability, . headlight aim,
bumper height, vehicle ground clearance, and tire
or tire chain clearance to the body and chassis. Replacement with used wheels is not advised: they ·may have
been subjected to harsh treatment or very high mileage and could fail wjthout
warning .
You can get wheels from your dealer.
Warranty
Tires are warranted by the tire manufacturers. Warranty information is included
in the manufacturer's warranty folder furnished with your vehicle.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS
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.

Fusible Links are incorporated into the wiring system. These
are wires
of such a gage that they will fuse (or melt) before damage occurs to an entire wiring harness in the event of an electncal overload. See your Chevrolet Dealer if 1usible link replacement becomes necessary.

Section for Further Details
Fuel Cap-Located behind a hinged door on the lett rear fender. See fuel cap removal procedure on page 5-1.
Fuel Recommendation -Use unle~ded gasoline only .
Hood Release -Located beneath the instrument panel to the left of the
steering column. To open, pull the handle to re lease the hood lock . Then ,
j" push down slightly o "n the hood whil e lifting the underhood lever, and raise
the hood, hold it open with the hood prop. To lower, lift the hood slightly to
remove tension from the hood
prop; then , place the hood prop in its retainin g
clip and lower the hood. (See illustration.)
Engine Oil -located between the engine block and the radiator. Check the engine oil level when the oil is warm, such as during a fuel stop. Keep the oil level above the "Add" line on the .dipstick.
Engine Oil Re "commendatlon -Use only SE-q ualit y oils or SF-quality oils .
The chart o n page 5-4 will serve as a gu ide tor choosing the proper viscosity oil. .
Tire Inflation Pressures -Check at least monthly (including the spare .)
Keep them
inflated to the pressures shown on the Tire Placard on the left
front door (Keep compact spare tires inflated to 4t5 kPa or 60 psi.)
Windshield Washer-Check the reservoir fluid level regularly . Use a wa sher
fluid, such as GM Optikleen.
Battery -Your new car has a Delco FREEDOM battery. You will never have
to add water. The hydrometer (test indicator) in the cover provides infor­
mation for testing purposes only.
