to flash. Hold it there until you complete
your lane change. The lever
will return by
itself when you release

As you signal a turn or a lane change, if
the arrows don’t flash but just stay on, a
signal bulb may be burned out and other
drivers won’t see your
turn signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help
avoid an accident.
If the green arrows
don’t go on at
all when you signal a turn,
check the fuse (see “Fuses” in the Index)
and for burned-out bulbs.

If the light stays on or comes on when
you’re driving, stop
as soon as possible
and turn the key off. Then start the engine
to reset the system. If the light still stays
on, or comes on again while you’re
driving, your Chevrolet needs service.
Unless the regular brake system warning
light is also on, you
will still have brakes,
but not anti-lock brakes. If the regular
brake system warning
light is also on, see
“Brake System Warning Light” earlier
in
this part. When your anti-lock system is working,
the message
LOW TRAC will appear on
your instrument cluster. This means that
slippery road conditions may exist. Adjust
your driving accordingly. The light
will
stay on for about four seconds after the
ABS stops working. The
LOW TRAC
light also comes on during engine starting
as
a bulb check.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
This gage shows the engine coolant
temperature.
If the gage pointer moves
into the red area, your engine is
too hot!
It means that your engine coolant has
overheated. If you have been operating
your vehicle under normal driving
conditions, you should
pull off the road,
stop your vehicle and
turn off the engine
as soon as possible.
HOT COOLANT CAN BURN YOU
BADLY!
In ”Problerns on the Road,” this manual
shows
what to do. See “Engine
Overheating”
in the Index.

Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has to
have a different turn signal flasher and
extra wiring. The green arrows on your
instrument panel will flash whenever you
signal a turn or lane change. Properly
hooked up, the trailer lights will also flash,
telling other drivers you’re about to
turn,
change lanes or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows on
your instrument panel will flash for turns
even if the bulbs on the trailer are burned
out. Thus,
you may think drivers behind
you are seeing your signal when they are
not. It’s important to check occasionally to
be sure the trailer bulbs are still working.
Driving on Grades
Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear
before you start down a long or steep
downgrade. If
you don’t shift down, you
might have to use your brakes
so much
that they would get hot and no longer work well.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and
reduce your speed to around
45 mph
(70 km/h) to reduce the possibility of
engine and transmission overheating. If you
are towing a trailer and you
have an automatic transmission with
Overdrive, you may prefer to drive
in D
instead of Overdrive (or, as you need to,
a lower gear). Or, if you have a manual
transmission
with fifth (or sixth) gear
and you are towing a trailer, it’s better
not to use
fifth (or sixth) gear. Just drive
in fourth gear (fifth gear
if you have
a six-speed manual transmission)
(or, as you need to, a lower gear.
