3.
Before you start, be sure you have enough room
around the vehicle.
It should be parked on a level
surface.
Firmly apply the parking brake (see "Parking Brake"
in the Index if necessary).
NOTE: Be ready to apply the regular brake
immediately
if the vehicle begins to move.
With the engine
off, turn the key to the RUN
position, but don't start the engine. Without applying
the regular brake,
try to move the shift lever out of
PARK (P) with normal effort. If the shift lever
moves out
of PARK (P), your vehicle's BTSI needs
service.
Steering Column Lock
While parked, and with the parking brake set, try to turn
the key
to LOCK in each shift lever position.
0 The key should turn to LOCK only when the shift
lever
is in PARK (P).

Part C: Periodic Maintenance
Inspections
Listed below are inspections and services which should
be performed at least twice
a year (for instance, each
spring and fall). You should let your
GM retailer’s
service department or other qualified service center do
these jobs. Make
SLI~~ any necessary repairs are
completed
at once.
Restraint Systems
Now and then, make sure all your belts, buckles, latch
plates, retractors, anchorages and reminder systems are working properly. Look for any loose parts or damage.
If you see anything that might keep a restraint system
from doing its job, have
it repaired.
Steering, Suspension and Front-
Wheel-Drive Axle Boot and Seal Inspection
Inspect the front and rear suspension and steering
system for damaged, loose or missing parts,
signs of
wear, or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering
lines and hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Clean and then inspect the drive
axle boot seals for damage, tears or leakage. Replace
seals
if necessary.
Exhaust System Inspection
Inspect the complete exhaust system. Inspect the body
near the exhaust system.
Look for broken, damaged,
missing or out-of-position parts
as well as open seams,
holes, loose connections,
or other conditions which
could cause a heat build-up in the floor pan or could let
exhaust fumes into the vehicle. See “Engine Exhaust”
in
the Index.
Throttle Linkage Inspection
Inspect the throttle linkage for interference or binding,
and for damaged or missing parts. Replace parts as
needed. Accelerator and cruise control cables should
not
be lubricated.
Brake System Inspection
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and
hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing,
etc. Inspect disc brake pads
for wear and rotors for
surface condition. Inspect other brake parts, including
calipers, parking brake, etc.
You may need to have your
brakes inspected more often
if your driving habits or
conditions result
in frequent braking.
