Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 4. If the fluid level
is in the
acceptable range,
push the dipstick
back in all the
way; then flip the
handle down to
lock the dipstick
in place.
How to Add Fluid
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what kind of transmission
fluid to use. See “Recommended Fluids and Lubricants”
in the Index.
If the fluid level is low, add only enough of the proper fluid to bring the
level up to the COLD area for a cold check or the
HOT area for a hot check.
It doesn’t take much fluid, generally less than a pint.
Don’t overfill. We
recommend you use only fluid labeled DEXRON@-I11 or DEXRON@-IIE,
because fluids with that label are made especially for your automatic
transmission. Damage caused by fluid other than DEXRON@-I11 or
DEXR0N’-IIE is not covered by your new vehicle warranty.
0 After adding fluid, recheck the fluid level as described under “How to
Check.”
0 When the correct fluid level is obtained, push the dipstick ba\
ck in all
the way; then flip the handle down to lock the dipstick in place.
Manual Transmission Fluid
When to Check
A good time to have it checked is when the engine oil is changed. However,
the fluid in your manual transmission
doesn’t require changing.
How to Check
Because this operation can be a little difficult, you may choose to have this
done at a
GM dealership Service Department.
If you do it yourself, be sure to follow all the instructions\
here, or you could get a false reading.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine When to Check
Check your ..’ :s once a month or more. Also, check the tire pressure of the
spare tire.
How to Check
Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire pressure. Si\
mply looking at the tires will
not tell you the pressure, especially if you have radial tires
- which may look properly inflated even if they’re underinflated.
If your tires have valve caps, be sure to put them back on. The\
y help prevent
leaks by keeping out
dirt and moisture.
Special Tire Inflation
If you have 31xlOSOR15LT/C tires on your vehicle, and:
- You’ll be driving for very long at speeds of 66 mph (105 km/h) to
75 mph (120 km/h) where legal, inflate tires to 10 psi (70 Wa) more
than the recornended cold inflation pressures.
- You’ll be driving for very long at speeds of 76 mph (120 km/h) to
85 mph (1 35 km/h) where legal, cold inflation pressures should be
increased by
10 psi (70 Wa) and you must also reduce axle load
capacity by
10%. Do not drive over 85 mph (135 km/h) even when
it’s legal.
Inflation pressures should never exceed 10 psi (70 Pa) above the
inflation specified for
the maximum load of the tire.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Temperature -A, By C
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire’s
resistance to the generation of heat and its ability
to dissipate heat when tested
under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory tes\
t wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate
and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to su\
dden tire failure.
The grade
C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car
tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard\

No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test
wheel than the minimum required by law.
Warning: The temperature grade for
this tire is established for a tire that is
properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinfla\
tion, or
excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure.
These grades are molded on
the sidewalls of passenger car tires.
While the tires available as standard or optional equipment on General
Motors vehicles may vary with respect to these grades, all such tires meet
General Motors performance standards and have been approved for use on
General Motors vehicles. All passenger type
(P Metric) tires must conform
to Federal safety requirements in addition to these grades.
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 GM 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.
