Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If the differential is at operating temperature (w,arm), add enou\
gh lubricant
to raise the level to the bottom of the filler plug hole.
If the differential is cold, add enough lubricant to raise the level to 1/2 inch
(12
mm) below the filler plug hole.
What to use
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what kind of lubricant to
use. See “Recommended Fluids and Lubricants” in the Index.
Engine Coolant
The following explains your cooling system and how to add coolant \
when it
is low.
If you have a problem with engine overheating, see “Engine
Overheating” in the Index.
The proper coolant for your vehicle will:
Give freezing protection down to -20 “F (-29” C), or -34°F (-37 “C) in
Canada and for vehicles with the cold climate option.
e Give boiling protection up to 258°F (125°C).
Protect against rust and corrosion.
Help keep the proper engine temperature.
Let the warning lights and gages work as they should.
What to Use
Use a mi,xture of one-half clean water (preferably distilled) and one-half
antifreeze that meets “GM Specification 603%” or “GM Specification
6043-M ”for the 2.2L (LN2) Code 4 engine, which won’t damage
aluminum parts. You can also use
a recycled coolant conforming to “GM
Specification 603%” or “GM Specification 6043-M ”for the 2.2L (LN2)
Code 4 engine with a complete coolant flush and refill.
If you use this
mixture, you don’t need to add anything else.

Your vehicle has front disc brakes and rear drum brakes.
Disc brake pads have built-in wear indicators that make a high\
-pitched warning sound when the brake pads are worn and new pads are \
needed. The
sound may come and go or be heard
all the time your vehicle is moving
(except when you -are pushing on the brake pedal
firmly).
I NOTICE:
I
Continuing to drive with worn-out brake pads could result in
costly brake repair.
Some driving conditions or climates may cause a brake squeal w\
hen the
brakes are first applied or lightly applied. This does not mean something is
wrong with your brakes.
Your rear
drum brakes don’t have wear indicators, but if you ever hear a
rear brake rabbing noise, have the rear brake linings inspected. Also, the
rear brake drums should be removed and inspected each time the\
tires itre
removed for rotation or changing. When you have the front brakes replaced,
have the rear brakes inspected, too.
Brake linings should always be replaced
as complete axle sets.
Brake Pedal Travel
See your dealer if the brake pedal does not return to normal height, o\
r if
there is a rapid increase in pedal travel. This could be a sign of brake
trouble.
Brake Adjustment
Every time you make a brake stop, your disc brakes adjust for wear.
If your brake pedal goes down farther than normal, your rear drum brakes
may need adjustment. Adjust them by backing up and
firmly applying the
brakes a few times.

After the vehcle has been parked for awhile, inspect the surface under the
vehicle
for water, oil, fuel OX other fluids. Water dripping from the air
conditioning system after it has been used is normal. If you notice fuel leaks
or fumes, the causes should be found and corrected at once.
