If your four-wheel drive vehicle has the electronic transfer case, the transfer
case switches are on the right side of your instrument panel above the radio
controls. Use these switches to shift into and out of four-wheel drive. You
can choose among three driving settings:
1. 2HI: This setting is for driving in most street and highway situations.
Your front axle is not engaged
in two-wheel drive.
2. 4HI: This setting engages your front axle to help drive your vehicle.
Use
4HI when you need extra traction, such as on snowy or icy roads, \
or in most off-road situations.
3. 4LO: This setting also engages your front axle to give you extra
traction. You may never need
4LO. It sends the maximum power to all
four wheels. You might choose
4LO if you were driving off-road in
sand, mud, deep snow and climbing or descending steep hills.
Amber indicator lights in the switches show you which setting \
you are in.
The indicator lights will come on briefly when you
turn on the ignition and
one
will stay on. If the lights do not come on, you should take your vehicle
in for service. When shifting, an indicator light will flash until the shift is
completed then remain solidly lit.
To shift from 2HI to 4HI: Press and release the 4HI switch. This can be
done at any speed, and the front axle will lock automatically.
To shift from 4HI to 2HI: Press and release the 2HI switch. This can be
done at any speed, and the front axle will unlock

The charging system
light is on your
instrument cluster and will come on briefly
when you turn on the
ignition, but the
engine is not running,
as a check to show
you it is working.
It should
go out once the engine is running. If it stays on, or comes on while
you are driving, you may have a problem with the charging system.
It could
indicate that you have problems with a generator drive belt, or another
electrical problem. Have it checked right away. Driving while this light is on
could drain your battery.
If you must drive a short distance with the light on, be certain to turn off all
your accessories, such as the radio and air conditioner.
Check Gages Light
This Check Gages
light is on the
instrument cluster and
will come on briefly
when you are starting
the engine.
If the light
comes on and stays on while you are driving,
check your various

if they are
in the warning zones.

If you use the optional engine coolant heater before starting your engine,
your heating system will produce warmer air faster, to heat th\
e passenger
compartment in cold weather. See “Engine Coolant Heater” in the Index.
Audio Systems
Your Delco@ audio system has been designed to operate easily and give
years of listening pleasure. But you will get the most enjoyment out of it if
you acquaint yourself with
it first. Find out what your Delco’ system can
do and how to operate
all its controls, to be sure you’re getting the most out
of the advanced engineering that went into it.
Be aware that hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable until
it is too late. Your hearing can adapt to higher volumes of sound. Sound that
seems normal can be loud and harmful to your hearing. Take precautions by
adjusting the volume control on your radio to a safe sound le\
vel before your
hearing adapts to it.

Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
0 Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably and clearly.
FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound. But FM signals will reach only
about
10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). And, tall buildings or hills can interfere
with FM signals, causing the sound to come and go.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM, especially at night.
The longer range, however, can cause stations to interfere with eac\
h other.
AM can pick up noise from things like storms and power lines. Tr\
y reducing
the treble to reduce this noise if you ever get
it.
AM Stereo
This means the Delco’ system can receive C-QUAM’ stereo broadcasts.
Many AM stations around the country use C-QUAM@ to produce ste\
reo, though some
do not. (C-QUAM@ is a registered trademark of Motorola,
kc.) If your DelcoB system can get C-QUAM@, your “STEREO’ light will
come on when you’re receiving it.
NOTICE:
Before you add any sound equipment to your ~ehicle - like a
tape player,
CB radio, mobile telephone or two-way radio - be
sure you can add
what you want. If you can, it’s very important
to do
it properly. Added sound equipment may interfere with the
operation of your vehicle’s engine, Delco@ radio or other
systems, and even damage them. And, your vehicle’s systems
may interfere with the operation of sound equipment that has
been added improperly.
So, before adding sound equipment, check with your dealer and
be sure to check Federal rules covering mobile radio and
telephone units.
