rmw-rirmuflh Ventilation System
Your Geo's flow-through ventilation
system supplies outside air into the
vehicle when it is moving. Outside air
will
also enter the car when the heater
or the air conditioning fan is running.
Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free
of ice, snow, or any other obstruction
(such as leaves). The heater and
defroster will work far better,
reducing the chance of fogging the
inside of your windows.
When you enter a car in cold weather,
move the fan lever toward
# for a
few moments before driving off. This
helps clear the intake ducts of snow
and moisture, and reduces 'the chance
of fogging the inside of your
windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats
clear of objects. This helps air to
circulate throughout your car.
H Audio Systems
Your Delco@ audio system has been
designed to operate easily and give years
of listening pleasure. But you will get
the most enjoyment out of it if you
acquaint yourself with it first. Find out
what your Delco@ audio system can do
and how to operate all its controls, to be
sure you're getting the most out of the
advanced engineering that went into it.

Y
REVERSIBLE
LANE ON ROADWAY
MULTI-LANE
Many
city roads and expressways, and
zven bridges,
use reversible-lane traffic
:ontrol during rush hours. A red
X light
above a lane means no driving in that
lane at that time. A green arrow means
you may drive
in that lane. Look for the
signs posted to warn drivers what hours
and days
these systems are in effect.
NO PASSING ZONE
Pavement Markings
Pavement markings add to traffic signs
and signals. They give information to
drivers without taking attention from
the
roadway. A solid yellow line on your
side of the road or lane means “don’t
xoss. ”
Your Own Signals
Drivers signal to others, too. It’s not
only more polite, it’s safer to let other
drivers know what you are doing. And
in some places the law requires driver
signals.
Turn and lane change signals. Always
signal
when you plan to turn or change
lanes.
If necessary,
you can use hand signals
out the window: Left arm straight out
for a left turn, down for slow or
about-to-stop, and up for a right turn.

I Driving a Long
Distunce
Although most long trips today are made
on freeways, there are still many made
on regular highways.
Long-distance driving on freeways and
regular highways is the same in some
ways. The trip has
to be planned and the
vehicle prepared, you drive at
higher-than-city speeds, and there are
longer turns behind the wheel. You’ll
l enjoy your trip more if you and your
vehicle are in good shape. Here are
some tips for a successful long trip.
Before Leaving on a Long Trip
Make sure you’re ready. Try to be well
rested. If you must start when you’re
not fresh
- such as after a day’s work
- don’t plan to make too many miles
that first part
of the journey. Wear
comfortable clothing and shoes you can
easily drive in.
Is your vehicle ready for a long trip? If
you keep it serviced and maintained, it’s
ready to go.
If it needs service, have it
done before starting out. Of course,
you’ll find experienced and able service
experts in Geo dealerships all across
North America. They’ll be ready and
willing to help
if you need it. Here
are some things you can check
before a trip:
Windshield Washer Fluid: Is the
reservoir full? Are all windows clean
inside and outside?
Wiper Blades: Are they in good
shape?
Fuel, Engine Oil, Other Fluids:
Have you checked all levels?
Lights: Are they all working? Are the
lenses clean?
Tires: They are vitally important to a
safe, trouble-free trip. Is the tread
good enough
for long-distance
driving? Are the tires all inflated
to
the recommended pressure?
