1995 CHEVROLET BLAZER tow

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine A green arrow on the
instrument panel will
flash
in the direction
of the turn or lane
change.
To signal a lane change, just raise or lower the lever until the green arrow
starts to flash. Hold it there until you complete your lane change. The lever
will return by itself when you release it.
As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the arrows don’t flash but just stay
on, a signal bulb may be burned out and other drivers won’t see your turn
signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an accident. If the green
arrows don’t go on at all when
you signal a turn, check the fuse (see “Fuses”
in the Index) and for burned-out bulbs.
If you have a trailer towing option with added wiring for the trailer lights, a
different turn signal flasher is used. With this flasher instal\
led, the signal
indicator will flash even if
a turn signal bulb is burned out. Check the front
and rear turn signal lights regularly to make sure they are w\
orking.
Operation of Lighting System
Although your vehicle’s lighting system (headlamps, parking lamps, fog
lamps, side marker lamps and taillamps) 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 lamps.
For example, some jurisdictions may require that you operate your fog
lamps only when your lower beam headlamps are also on,
or that headlamps
be turned on whenever you must use your windshield wipers. In \
addition,
most jurisdictions prohibit driving solely with parking lamps, especially at
dawn or dusk. It is recommended that you check with your own state or
provincial highway authority for applicable lighting regulations.

to
RUN or START. Then the light should go out. This means the system is
ready.
If the air bag readiness light doesn’t come on when you start your vehicle,
or stays on,
or comes on when you are driving, your air bag system may not
work properly. Have your vehicle serviced right away.
Brake System Warning Light
Your vehicle’s hydraulic brake system is divided into two parts. If one part
isn’t working, the other part can still work and stop
you. For good braking,
though, you need both parts working well.
If the warning light comes on, there could be a brake problem. Have your
brake system inspected right away.
This light should come on briefly
as you start the vehicle. If it doesn’t come
on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there’s a problem.
If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the road and stop
carefully. You may notice that the pedal
is harder to push. Or, the pedal may
go closer to the floor. It may take longer to stop.
If the light is still on, have
the vehicle towed for service. (See “Towing Your Vehicle” in
the Index.)

Loading Your Vehicle
The CertificationEire label also tells you the maximum weights for the
front and rear axles, called Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). To find out
the actual loads on your front and rear axles, you need to go to a weigh
station and weigh your vehicle. Your dealer can help
you with this. Be sure
to spread out your load equally on both sides
of the centerline.
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.
Similar appearing vehicles may have different
GVWR’s and Payloads.
Please note the CertificationEire label
of your truck or consult your dealer
for additional details.
