1993 CHEVROLET BLAZER window

After work is done on the brake hydraulic system, make sure t\
he levels are
above
MIN and below the top of each window.
What To Add:
When you do need brake fluid, use only DOT-3 brake fluid-such \
as Delco
Supreme 11
@ (GM Part No. 1052535). Use new brake fluid from a sealed
container only.
NOTICE
DOT-5 silicone brake fluid can damage your vehicle. Don’t use it.
Don’t let someone put in the wrong kind of fluid. For example, just a
few drops
of mineral-based oil, such as engine oil, in your brake
-]stem can damaae brake svstem parts
so badlv that 1 fll have to
be replaced.
Brake fluid can damage paint, so be careful nor IO spit1 Drake fluid on
your vehicle.
Hydro-Boost Brake System (Hydraulic Pump)
The power steering pump is also used as the Hydro-boost pump. \
Refer to “Power Steering System” in this section when checking flui\
d level
or adding fluid.
Replacing Brake System Parts
The braking system on a modern vehicle is complex. Its many parts have to
be of top quality and work well together
if the vehicle is to have really good
braking. Vehicles we design and test have top-quality
GM brake parts in
them, as your vehicle does when
it is new. When you replace parts of your
braking system-for example, when your brake linings wear down and you
have to have new ones put in-be sure you get new genuine
GM
replacement parts. If you don’t, your brakes may no longer work properly. For
example,
if someone puts in brake linings that are wrong for your vehicle, the
balance between your front and rear brakes can change, for the\
worse. The
braking performance you’ve come to expect can change in many other ways
if someone puts in the wrong replacement brake parts.

Service & Appearance Care
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 or goes away.
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. See “Trailer
Wiring Harness” in the Index for more information.

The fuse block is in
the instrument panel on the driver’s side.
You can remove fuses with a fuse extractor, if you have one. To remove
fuses
if you don’t have one, hold the end of the fuse between your thumb
and index finger and pull straight out.
Be sure to use the correct fuse.
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 the Index for more
information.

Service & Appearance Care
Combination Stains: Like candy, ice cream, mayonnaise, chili sauce and
unknown stains,
Carefully scrape off excess stain, then clean with cool water \

If a stain remains, clean it with solvent-type cleaner.
dry.
Cleaning Vinyl or Leather
Just use warm water and a clean cloth.
Rub with a clean, damp cloth to remove dirt. You may have to do it
more than once.
Things like tar, asphalt and shoe polish will stain if you don’t get them
off quickly. Use a clean cloth and solvent-type vinylheather cleaner\
.
Cleaning the Top of the Instrument Panel
Use only mild soap and water to clean the top surfaces of th\
e instrument
panel. Sprays containing silicones or waxes may cause annoying \
reflections in
the windshield and even make
it difficult to see through the windshield under
certain conditions.
Care of Safety Belts
Keep belts clean and dry.
Do not bleach or dye safety belts. If you do, it may severely weaken
them. In a crash they might not be able to provide adequate
protection. Clean
safety belts only with mild soap and lukewarm
I water.
Glass
Glass should be cleaned often. GM Glass Cleaner (GM Part No. 1050427) or
a liquid household glass cleaner will remove normal tobacco smoke \
and dust
films.
Don’t use abrasive cleaners
on glass, because they may cause scratches.
Avoid placing decals on the inside rear window, since they may\
have to be scraped
off later. If abrasive cleaners are used on the inside of the rear
window, an electric defogger element may be damaged. Any temporary
iicense should not be attached across the defogger grid.
