CHEVROLET S10 1995 2.G Owners Manual

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NOTICE:
If you have aluminum wheels, don’t use an automatic vehicle
wash that has hard silicon carbide cleaning brushes. These
brushes can take the protective coating
off your aluminum
wheels.
Tires
To clean your tires, use a stiff brush with a tire cleaner.
When applying a tire dressing always take care to wipe
off any overspray or
splash from painted surfaces. Petroleum-based products may damage the
paint finish.
Sheet Metal Damage
If your vehicle is damaged and requires sheet metal repair or replacement,
make sure the body repair shop applies anti-corrosion material to the parts
repaired or replaced to restore corrosion protection.
Foreign Material
Calcium chloride and other salts, ice melting agents, road oil and tar, tree
sap, bird droppings, chemicals from industrial chimneys, and other foreign
matter can damage your vehicle’s finish if they remain on painted surfaces.
Use cleaners that are marked safe for painted surfaces to remove foreign
matter.
Finish Damage
Any stone chips, fractures or deep scratches in the finish should be repaired
right away. Bare metal will corrode quickly and may develop into a major
repair expense.
Minor chips and scratches can be repaired with touch-up materials available
from your dealer or other service outlets. Larger areas of finish damage can
be corrected in your dealer’s body and paint shop.

Chemicals used for ice and snow removal and dust control can collect on
the underbody. If these are not removed, accelerated corrosion (rust) can
occur
on the underbody parts such as fuel lines, frame, floor pan, and
exhaust system even though they have corrosion protection.
At least every spring, flush these materials from the underbody with plain
water. Clean any areas where mud and other debris can collect. Dirt packed
in closed areas of the frame should be loosened before being flushed. Your
dealer or an underbody vehicle washing system can do this for you.
Chemical Paint Spotting
Some weather and atmospheric conditions can create a chemical fallout.
Airborne pollutants
can fall upon and attack painted surfaces on your
vehicle. This damage can take
two forms: blotchy, ringlet-shaped
discolorations, and small irregular dark spots etched into the paint surface.
Although
no defect in the paint job causes this, GM will repair, at no charge
to the owner, the surfaces of new vehicles damaged by this fallout condition
within
12 months or 12,000 miles (20 000 km) of purchase, whichever
comes first.
This applies only to materials manufactured and sold by General Motors.
Bodies, body conversions or equipment not made or sold by General Motors
are not covered.

look through the windshield from outside your vehicle. The VIN also
appears on the Vehicle Certification and Service Parts labels and the
certificates
of title and registration.

You’ll find this label on the inside of the glove box.
It’s very helpful
if you ever need to order parts. On this label is:
your VIN,
0 the model designation,
0 paint information, and

Be sure that this label is not removed from the vehicle.
Add-on Electrical Equipment
NOTICE:
Don’t add anything electrical to your vehicle unless you check
with your dealer first. Some electrical equipment can damage
your vehicle and the damage wouldn’t be covered by your
warranty. Some add-on electrical equipment can keep other components from working as they should.
Your vehicle has

air bag system. Before attempting to add anything
* vehicle, see “Servicing Your Air Bag-Equipped Vehicle”
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 chance of fires caused by electrical
problems.
6-59

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Headlamps
The headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in the light switch. An
electrical overload will cause the lights to go on and
off, or in some cases to
remain off. If this happens, have your headlamp wiring checked right away.
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 and not
snow, etc., be sure to get 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.
Trailer Wiring Harness
The optional seven-wire trailer wiring harness is protected by an in-line
fuse in the battery feed wire. This fuse is near the junction block in the
front, driver’s side fender. See “Trailer Wiring Harness”
in the Features &
Controls section.
Fuse Block
. .. . .,
The fuse block is in
the instrument panel
on the driver’s side.
Remove the cover by
turning the fastener
counterclockwise.
Then you can remove
fuses with a fuse
extractor. Extra fuses
are provided in the
cover.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Be sure to use the
correct fuse.
Spare fuses are provided, however if you ever have a problem on the road
and don’t have a spare fuse, you
can “borrow” one of the correct value. Just
pick some feature of your vehicle that you can get along without-like the
radio or cigarette lighter-and use its fuse, if it is of the value you need.
Replace it as soon as you
can. See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in this
section.
To reinstall the fuse panel cover, push in and turn the fastener clockwise.
