instrument cluster CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1995 Owners Manual

NOTICE:
After you’ve used the coolant heater, be sure to store the \
cord as
it
was before to keep it away from moving engine parts. If you
don’t, it could be damaged.
How long should you keep the coolant heater plugged in‘? The answer
depends on the weather, the kind of oil
you have, and some other things.
Instead of trying
to list everything here, we ask that you contact your GM
dealer in the area where you’ll be parking your vehicle. The dealer can give
you the best advice for that particular area.
Automatic Transmission
T
There are several different positions for your shift lever.
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission, it now features
an electronic shift position indicator within
the instrument cluster. This
display must be powered anytime the shift lever
is capable of being moved
out
of the PARK (P) position. This means that if your key is in the OFF
position, but not locked, there will be a small current drain on your battery
which could discharge your battery over a period of time. If you have a need
to leave your key
in the ignition in the OFF position for an extended period
for any reason,
it is recommended that you disconnect the battery cable
from the battery to prevent discharging your battery.
PARK (P) -This locks your rear wheels. It’s the best position to use
when you start your engine because your vehicle can’t move easily.

Rear Window Wiper and Washer
Some visors have
mirrors with lights. If
the mirror has lights,
they will come on
when
you lift the
mirror cover.
The rear window wipedwasher switch
is on your instrument
panel, to
the passenger
side
of the gage
cluster.
To turn the wiper
on, slide the switch all the way up.
For delay wiping, slide the switch even with
DELAY in the center position
of the rear wiper control. The wiper will cycle every nine seconds.
To wash the window, push in on the switch. Window washer fluid will
continue to spray until the switch is released. The wiper will continue with
three more wipes and then return
to the setting that was chosen before the
lever was pushed.
The rear window washer uses
the same fluid bottle as the front windshield
washer.
If the fluid level is low in the washer fluid bottle, you may not be
able to wash your rear window.
If you can wash your windshield, but not
your rear window, check the fluid level.
