clock PONTIAC BONNEVILLE 1998 User Guide

' A CAUTION:
Never use oil or grease on studs or nuts. If you
do, the nuts might come loose. Your wheel could
fall
off, causing a serious accident.
8. Place the compact spare tire on the
wheel-mounting surface.
9. Replace the wheel nuts
with rounded end
of the
nuts toward the wheel.
Make sure each wheel
bolt is centered
in each
wheel hole while
tightening the nuts.
Tighten each nut by hand until the wheel
is
held against the hub.
10. Lower the vehicle by rotating the wheel wrench
to the
left (counterclockwise). Lower the
jack completely.

To remove the cap, turn it slowly to the left
(counterclockwise). The cap has a spring in it; if you
let
go of the cap too soon, it will spring back to the right.
If you get gasoline on yourself and then
something ignites it, you could be badly burned.
Gasoline can
spray out on you if you open the
fuel filler cap too quickly. This spray can happen
if your tank
is nearly full, and is more likely in
hot weather. Open the fuel filler cap slowly and
wait for any “hiss” noise to stop. Then unscrew
the cap all the way.
Be careful not to spill gasoline. Clean gasoline from
painted surfaces as soon as possible. See “Cleaning the
Outside
of Your Vehicle” in the Index. When you put
the cap back on, turn it to the right
(clockwise) until you hear a clicking sound. Make
sure
you fully install the cap. The diagnostic system
can determine if the fuel cap has been left
off or
improperly installed. This would allow fuel
to
evaporate into the atmosphere. See “Malfunction
Indicator Lamp”
in the Index.
NOTICE:
If you need a new cap, be sure to get the right
type. Your dealer can get one for you.
If you get
the wrong type, it may not
fit properly. This may
cause your malfunction indicator lamp to light
and your fuel tank and emissions system may be
damaged. See “Malfunction Indicator Lamp” in
the Index.

Maxifuse@/Relay Center
To check the fuses in this underhood fuse center,
turn the two
knobs one-quarter turn to the left
(counterclockwise) and loosen the metal wing
nut on
the passenger side of the cover. Then remove the cover.
The inside of the cover has
a chart that explains the
features and controls governed
by each fuse and relay.
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. This greatly reduces the
chance
of damage caused by electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If
the
band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with
a new one of the identical size
and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don't have
a spare fuse,
you can borrow one that has the same
amperage. 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 the correct amperage.
Replace
it as soon as you can.
There
are two fuse blocks in your vehicle: the driver's
side and passenger's side fuse blocks.
