You can lock or unlock all doors of your
vehicle from the driver or passenger
door lock switch.
On 4-door models, the switch on each rear door works only that door’s lock. It
won’t lock (or unlock) all of the
doors-that’s a safety feature.
Automatic Door Locks
Just close your doors and turn on the
ignition. If you have an automatic
transaxle, all
of the doors will lock
when you move your shift lever out of
P (Park) or N (Neutral). If you have a
manual transaxle, all of the doors will
lock when the vehicle goes about
8 mph
(13km/h). Each time you close your
doors and turn on the ignition, the doors
will lock automatically only once. If
someone needs to get out while the
vehicle is running, have that person use
the manual or power lock. When the
door
is closed again, it will not lock
automatically. Just use the manual or
power lock to lock the door again.

Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, open your
door and set the locks from inside. Then
get out and close the door.
Illuminated Entry/Exit System
When you lift the handle of either front
door, the lights inside your vehicle will
go on. (On the wagon, the rear
compartment light will not
go on when
the doors are opened.) These lights will
go off after about 40 seconds, or when
the ignition
is turned on.
If the ignition has been off for less than
two minutes, the lights inside your vehicle will stay on for about four
seconds to provide an illuminated exit.
The illuminated entry/exit system is
deactivated when the dome light lever is
moved to the
OFF position.

Service & Appearance Care
Cleaning the Outside of Your
Chevrolet (CONT)
Washing Your Vehicle
The best way to preserve your vehicle’s
finish is to keep it clean by washing it
often with lukewarm or cold water.
Don’t wash your vehicle in the direct
rays of the sun. Don’t use strong soaps
or chemical detergents. Use liquid hand,
dish
or car washing (non-detergent)
soaps. Don’t use cleaning agents that
contain acid or abrasives. All cleaning
agents should be flushed promptly and not allowed to dry on the surface, or
they could stain.
Dry the finish with a
soft, clean chamois or a 100% cotton
towel to avoid surface scratches and water spotting.
High pressure vehicle washes may cause
water
to enter your vehicle.

Textured-Surface Bumper Covers
(VL and RS MODELS)
Cleaning with a brush, a soft terry cloth
or a commercial car wash is
recommended for normal dirt. Never
use a wire brush or abrasives.
Avoid applying wax
or polish to the
textured-surface bumper covers. To
remove wax, a commercially available
wax solvent should be used. Tar and Oil
Remover (GM Part
No. 1050172) is also
recommended. It’s also recommended
for cleaning difficult soils like road tar
and oil. Also recommended are solvent-
type fabric cleaners such as GM Part
No. 1050244.
To clean white bumper covers, first use
Tar and Oil Remover. If the dark areas
are still visible, whiten with White
Sidewall Tire Cleaner, such as GM Part
No. 1050174.
Finish Care of Textured-Surface
Bumper Covers
To touch up any small spots after
regular washing, use a solvent-type
fabric cleaner such as GM Part No.
1050244 and a clean, dry cloth.
To help maintain bumper covers, after
washing use a cleaner/protectant like
GM/Armor AllTM Part No. 1052919.
