1994 CHEVROLET BLAZER headlights

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine An indicator light near
the lever shows you
the transfer case
settings:
2 WHEEL
4HIGH
0 N SET PARKING BRAKE
0 4LOW
The front axle portion of the diagram on the indicator will light up when
you shift into four-wheel drive.
A slight delay between shifting and the
pattern's lighting
is normal. If the pattern does not light up, or if the front
axle does not go out after you shift out of four-wheel drive, have your
dealer check your system. Turn the
LIGHTS switch located above your
headlight switch
to the left to dim your transfer case indicator light when
your headlights or parking lights are on.
2 WHEEL: This setting is for driving in most street and highway situations.
Your front axle
is not engaged in two-wheel drive.
4 HIGH: This setting engages your front axle to help drive your vehicle.
Use 4 HIGH when you need extra traction, such as on snowy or icy roads,
or
in most off-road situations.
N SET PARKING BRAKE: Shift to this neutral setting only when your
vehicle needs to be towed.
4 LOW This setting also engages your front axle to give you extra traction.
You may never need
4 LOW. It sends the maximum power to all four
wheels. You might choose
4 LOW if you were driving off-road in sand,
mud, or deep snow and climbing or descending steep hills.
You can shift from 2 WHEEL to 4 HIGH or from 4 HIGH to 2 WHEEL
while the vehicle is moving. It is not necessary for you to press the transfer
case shift lever button. Your front axle will engage faster if you take your
foot off of the accelerator for a few seconds after you shift.

Although your vehicle's lighting system (headlights, parking lig\
hts, fog
lamps, side marker lights and taillights) meets
all applicable federal lighting
requirements, certain states and provinces may apply their own lighting
regulations that may require special
attention before you operate these
lights.
For example, some jurisdictions may require that you operate your fog
lamps
only when your lower beam headlights are also on, or that headlights
be turned
on whenever you must use your windshield wipers. In addition,
most jurisdictions prohibit driving solely with parking lights, especially at
dawn or dusk. It is recommended that
you check with your own state or
provincial highway authority for applicable lighting regulations.
Headlight High-Low Beam
To change the
headlights from low
beam to high or high
to
low, pull the turn
signal lever all the
way toward you. Then
release
it.
When the high beams
are
on, this blue
indicator light on the
instrument panel also
will be on.

in daylight
when:
The ignition is on,
The headlight switch is off, and

When you turn
on your headlights, the DRL will switch off and the exterior
lights
will come on. When you turn off the headlights, the exterior lights
will go out and the high beams will change to the reduced brightness of
DRL again.

is on. This light means that only the DRL is on. When you turn on
your exterior lights, this light
will go out.

Indicator lights go on when you use your turn signals, change from low
beam headlights to high beams, or when you use
your hazard flashers. The

and help you locate them.
Charging System Light
The charging system
light is

when
you turn on the
ignition, but the
engine is
not running,
as a check to show
you it
is working.
It should go out once the engine is running. If it stays on, or comes on while
you are driving, you may have a problem with the charging system. It could
indicate that you have problems with
a generator drive belt, or another
electrical problem. Have
it checked right away. Driving while this light is on
could drain your battery.
If
you must drive a short distance with the light on, be certain to turn off all
your accessories, such as the radio and air conditioner.

standard cluster, this
Check Gages light
will come on briefly
when you are starting
the engine. If the light

while you are driving,
check your various
gages to see
if they are
in the warning zones.
