In very cold weather, 0 OF (- 1 8 “C) or
colder, the engine block heater can help.

an electrical shock. Also, the wrong
kind of extension cord could
overheat and cause a fire. You could
be seriously injured. Plug the cord into a properly grounded

1 10-volt outlet. If the
cord won’t reach, use a heavy-duty
three-prong extension cord rated
for
at least 15 amps.

How long should you keep the block
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
a Chevrolet dealer in the area
where you’ll be parking your vehicle. The
dealer can give
you the best advice for
that particular area,
... 62
Automatic
Transmission
There are several different positions for
your shift lever.
P (Park)
This locks your rear wheels. It’s the best
position to use when you start your
engine because your vehicle can’t move
easily.
It is dangerous to get out of
your vehicle
if rhe shift lever is
not fully in P (Park) with the
parking brake
firmly set. Your
vehicle can roll.
Don’t leave your vehicle when the
engine
is running unless you have
to. If you have left the engine
running, the vehicle can move
suddenly.
You or others could be
injured. To be sure your vehicle
won’t move, when you’re on fairly
level ground, always set your
parking brake and move the shift lever to
P (Park).
See “Shifting into
P (Park)” in the
Index.
If you are parking on a hill,
or if you’re pulling a trailer, also
see “Parking on Hills” or “Towing
a Trailer” in the Index.

During initial start-up only, if your
vehicle is equipped
with an optional
engine block heater,
you can use it in cold
weather (around
+20°F/-8 “C or lower) to
heat the passenger area better than
without it. Because an engine block heater
warms the engine coolant, your vehicle’s
heating system can more efficiently
provide heat for the passenger area
of
your vehicle. See “Engine Block Heater”
in the Index.
Bi-level Heating
You may want to use bi-level heating on
cool, but sunny days. This setting directs
cool air toward your body and warmer air
toward your feet.
