Remote Trunk Release (OPTION)
Press the yellow trunk release button
located under the instrument panel on
the driver’s side.
If you have an automatic transaxle, the
transaxle must be in
P (Park).
If you have a manual transaxle,
remember that your trunk can be
opened at any time using the lock
release. Be sure to lock your doors.
Convenience Net (OPTION)
Your vehicle may have a convenience
net. You’ll see it just inside the back
wall of the trunk.
Put small loads, like grocery bags,
behind the net. It can help keep them
from falling over during sharp turns or
quick starts and stops.
The net isn’t for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the trunk as far forward
as you can.
You can unhook the net
so it will lie flat
when you’re not using it.
Glove Box
I
To open, pinch the latch release. Use
the door lock key to lock and unlock the
glove box.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Torque Lock
If you are parking on a hill and you
don’t shift your transaxle into
P (Park)
properly, the weight of the vehicle may
put too much force on the parking pawl
in the transaxle. You may find it
difficult
to pull the shift lever out of
P (Park). This is called “torque lock.”
To prevent torque lock, always be sure
to shift into
P (Park) properly before
you leave the driver’s seat. To find out
how, see the
Index under Shifting Into
P (Park).
When you are ready to drive, move the
shift lever out of
P (Park) before you
release the parking brake.
If torque lock does occur, you may need
to have another vehicle push yours a
little uphill to take some
of the pressure
from the transaxle, so you can pull the
shift lever out of
P (Park).
Winter Driving
Here are some tips for winter driving:
Have your Chevrolet in good shape
for winter. Be sure your engine
coolant mix
is correct.
Snow tires can help in loose snow,
but they may give you less traction on
ice than regular tires.
If you do not
expect to be driving in deep snow, but
may have to travel over ice, you may
not want to switch to snow tires at all.
You may want to put winter
emergency supplies in your trunk.
Include an ice scraper, a small brush
or broom, a supply of windshield
washer fluid, a rag, some winter outer
clothing, a small shovel, a flashlight,
a
red cloth, and a couple of reflective
warning triangles. And, if you will
be
driving under severe conditions,
include a small bag of sand, a piece
of
old carpet or a couple of burlap bags
to help provide traction. Be sure you
properly secure these items in your
vehicle.

Loading Your Vehicle
Two labels on your vehicle show how
much weight it may properly carry. The
Tire-Loading Information label found
on the inside of the trunk lid tells you
the proper size, speed rating and
recommended inflation pressures for
the tires on your vehicle. It also gives
you important information about the
number of people that can be in your
vehicle and the total weight that you
can carry. This weight is called the
Vehicle Capacity Weight and includes
the weight of all occupants, cargo, and
all nonfactory-installed options. The
other label is the Certification label,
on the rear edge
of the driver’s door. It
tells you the
gross weight capacity of
your vehicle, called the GVWR (Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating). The
GVWR
includes the weight of the vehicle, all
occupants, fuel and cargo. Never exceed
the GVWR for your vehicle, or the
Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) for
either the front or rear axle.
And,
if you do have a heavy load, you
should spread it out. Don’t carry more
than
167 lbs. (75 kg) in your trunk.
