Windshield Washer
Standard Wipers:
To spray washer fluid on the
windshield, pull the stalk with the wipe]
symbol
on it toward you one time.
When you release the stalk the washers
will stop, but the wipers will keep going
in low until you move the wiper control
to OFF.
Intermittent Windshield Wipers:
If you have intermittent windshield
wipers, after each wash cycle ends the
wipers will resume the delay speed you
were using before.
If you had no speed
selected, the wipers will stop. Driving
without washer fluid can be
dangerous.
A bad mud splash can block
your vision.
You could hit another
vehicle or go
off the road. Check your
washer fluid level often.

To Reduce Speed While Using
Cruise Control
There are two ways to reduce your
speed while using cruise control:
Push in the button at the end of the
lever until you reach the lower speed
you want, then release
it.
To slow down in very small amounts,
push the button for less than half a
second. Each time you do this, you’ll
go
1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase
your speed. When you take your foot
off
the pedal, your vehicle will slow down
to the cruise control speed you set
earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control will work
on hills depends upon your speed, load,
and the steepness of the hills. When
going
up steep hills, you may have to step
on the accelerator pedal to
maintain your speed. When going
downhill, you may have to brake or
shift to a lower gear to keep your speed
down. Of course, applying the brake or
clutch pedal takes you out of cruise
control. Many drivers find this to be too,
much trouble and don’t use cruise
control on steep hills.
To Get Out of Cruise Control
There are several ways to turn off the
cruise control:
Step lightly on the brake pedal, or
push the clutch pedal,
if you have a
manual transaxle; OR
Move the cruise switch to OFF.
To Erase Cruise Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or
the ignition, your cruise control set
speed memory is erased.
Inside Manual DaylNight
Rearview Mirror
To reduce glare from lights behind you,
move the lever toward you to the night
position.

To open the center console ashtray, lift
the lid.
To clean the ashtray, pull up on the
LIFT tab along the left edge.

way and let go. When it’s ready, it will
pop back out by itself.
NOTICE:
Don’t hold a cigarette lighter in

If you do, it won’t be able to back
away from the heating element
when it’s ready. That can male it
overheat, damaging the lighter and
the heating element.
Rear Ashtray
To clean the rear console-mounted
ashtray, open it, push down on the
snuffer and pull it out.
NOTICE:
Don’t put papers and other things
that burn into your ashtrays. If you
do, cigarettes
or other smoking
materials could set them on fire,
causing damage.

Instrument Panel Clusters
Your Chevrolet is equipped with one of
these instrument panel clusters, which
include indicator warning lights and
gages that are explained
on the
following pages. Be sure to read about
those that apply to the instrument panel
cluster for your vehicle.
Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your
speed in both miles per hour (mph) and
kilometers per hour (ltm/h). Your
odometer shows how far your vehicle
has been driven, in either miles (used in
the
U.S.) or kilometers (used in
Canada).
1 Tamper Resistant Odometer
Your Chevrolet has a tamper resistant
odometer.
If you see silver lines
between the numbers, you'll know that
someone has probably tried to turn it
back,
so the numbers may not be true.
You may wonder what happens if your
vehicle needs a new odometer installed.

Warning Lights, Gages and
Indicators
This section describes the warning
lights and gages that may be on your
vehicle. The pictures will help you
locate them.
Warning lights and gages can signal that
something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive
repair
or replacement. Paying attention
to your warning lights and gages could
also save you or others from injury.
Warning lights go on when there may
be or is a problem with one of your
vehicle’s functions.
As you will see in
the details
on the next few pages, some
warning lights come on briefly when
you turn the ignition key just to let you
lmow they’re working.
If you are familiar
with this section, you should
not be alarmed when this happens.
Gages can indicate when there may be
or is a problem with one of your
vehicle’s functions. Often gages and
warning lights work together to let
you
know when there’s a problem with your
vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes
on and stays on when you are driving,
or when one of the gages shows there
may be a problem, check the section
that tells you what to do about it. Please
follow the manual’s advice. Waiting to
do repairs can be costly
- and even
dangerous.
So please get to know your
warning lights and gages. They’re a big
help.

FUEL ONLY
Fuel Gage
When the ignition is on, your fuel gage
tells you about how much fuel you have
left. When the indicator nears
E (Empty),
you still have a little fuel left, but you
should get more soon.
Here are four things that some owners
ask about. None of these show a
problem with your fuel gage:
At the gas station, the gas pump shuts
off before the gage reads I: (Full).

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine It takes a little more or less fuel to fill
up than the gage indicated. For
example, the gage may have indicated
the tank was half full, but it actually
took
a little more or less than half the
tank’s capacity to fill the tank.
The gage moves a little when you turn
a corner or speed up.
The gage doesn’t go back to E when
you turn off the ignition.
For your fuel tank capacity, see

hgine Coolant Temperature
Gage
With the ignition in the Run position,
this gage shows the engine coolant
temperature.
If the gage pointer moves into the red
area, your engine is too hot! It means
that
your engine coolant has
overheated.
If you have been operating
your vehicle under normal driving
conditions, you should pull
off the road,
stop your vehicle and turn
off the
engine as soon as possible.
HOT COOLANT CAN
BURN YOU
BADLY!
In Problems on the Road, this manual
shows what
to do. See the Index under
Engine Overheating.
Low Coolant Warning Light
(3.1 L V6 ENGINE)
If this light comes on and stays on, your
system is low on coolant and the engine
may overheat. See the

Coolant and have your vehicle serviced
as soon
as you can.
