Gasoline Engines
This system has an oxygen sensor (OS) that helps keep your engine’s
air-fuel mixture at a proper
level. Use only unleaded fuel in your vehicle. If
you use leaded fuel, you could damage your oxygen sensor (OS) and
three-way catalytic converter.
Diesel Vehicles Below 8,500 (3 850 Kg) GVWR
This system monitors engine speed and throttle position. It adjusts exhaust
gas recirculation to limit emissions.
Malfunction Indicator (SERVICE ENGINE SOON)
Light
The Malfunction Indicator (SERVICE ENGINE SOON) Light on your
instrument panel lets you know when your emission system needs service.
The light will come on briefly
when you start your engine to let you know
that the system is working.
If it does not come on when you start your
engine, or if
it comes on and stays on while you’re driving, your system
may need service. Your vehicle should still be driveable, but
you should
have your system serviced right away.
Secondary Air Injection Reaction (AIR) System
(Gasoline Engines)
You may have this system. It has a control valve that will direct air to where
it is needed. If the AIR system needs service, your Malfunction Indicator
(SERVICE ENGINE
SOON) Lamp on your instrument panel will come on.
Tires
We don’t make tires. Your new vehicle comes with high-quality tires made
by
a leading tire manufacturer. These tires are warranted by the tire
manufacturers, and their warranties are delivered with every new vehicle.
If
your spare tire is a different brand than your road tires, you will have a tire
warranty folder from each
of these manufacturers.

NOTICE:
Be careful. A blow dryer may scorch the fabric.
0 Wipe with a clean cloth.
Using Solvent-Type Cleaner on Fabric
First, see if you have to use solvent-type cleaner at all. Some spots and
stains will clean off better with
iust water and mild soap.
If you need to use a solvent:
Gently scrape excess soil from the trim material with a clean, dull knife
or scraper. Use very little cleaner, light pressure and clean cloths
(preferably cheesecloth). Cleaning should start at the outside of the
stain, “feathering” toward the center. Keep changing to
a clean section
of the cloth.
When you clean a stain from fabric, immediately dry the area with a
blow dryer to help prevent a cleaning ring. (See the previous NOTICE.)

Your vehicle has upholstery and carpet that has been treated with
Scotchgard
TM Fabric Protector, a 3M product. Scotchgard TM protects fabrics
by repelling
oil and water, which are the carriers of most stains. Even with
this protection, you still need to clean your upholstery and carpet often to
keep it looking new.
Further information
on cleaning is available by calling 1-800-433-3296 (in
Minnesota, 1-800-642-6 167).
Special Cleaning Problems
Greasy or Oily Stains
Stains caused by grease, oil, butter, margarine, shoe polish, coffee with
cream, chewing gum, cosmetic creams, vegetable oils, wax crayon, tar and
asphalt can be removed
as follows:
0 Carefully scrape off excess stain.
Follow the solvent-type instructions described earlier.
Shoe polish, wax crayon, tar and asphalt will stain if left on a vehicle
seat fabric. They should be removed
as soon as possible. Be careful,
because the cleaner will dissolve them and may cause them to spread.
Non-Greasy Stains
Stains caused by catsup, coffee (black), egg, fruit, fruit juice, milk, soft
drinks, wine, vomit, urine and blood can be removed as follows:
Carefully scrape off excess stain, then sponge the soiled area with cool
water.
0 If a stain remains, follow the foam-type instructions described earlier.
0 If an odor lingers after cleaning vomit or urine, treat the area with a
watedbaking soda solution: 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of baking soda to 1 cup
(250 ml) of lukewarm water.
If needed, clean lightly with solvent-type cleaner.
Combination Stains
Stains caused by candy, ice cream, mayonnaise, chili sauce and unknown
stains can be removed as follows:
Carefully scrape off excess stain, then clean with cool water and allow
to dry.
0 If a stain remains, clean it with solvent-type cleaner.

The fuse block access

of the
instrument panel. Pull
off the cover to access
the fuse block.
You can remove fuses
with a fuse extractor.
The
fuse extractor is
mounted to the fuse
block access door.
To remove fuses if you don’t have a fuse extractor, hold the end of the fuse
between your thumb and index finger and pull straight
out.
Be sure to use the correct fuse. If you ever have a problem on the road and
don’t
have a spare fuse, you can “borrow” one of the correct value. Just pick
some feature of your vehicle that you can get along without-like the radio
or cigarette lighter-and use its fuse,
if it is of the value you need. Replace
it as soon as you can. See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the Index for
more information.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Part A: Scheduled Maintenance Services
Using Your Maintenance Schedule
We at General Motors want to help you keep your vehicle in good working
condition. But we don’t know exactly how
you’ll drive it. You may drive
very short distances
only a few times a week. Or you may drive long
distances all the time
in very hot, dusty weather. You may use your vehicle
in making deliveries. Or you may drive it to work, to do errands or in many
other ways.
Because of all the different ways people use their GM vehicles, maintenance
needs vary. You may
even need more frequent checks and replacements than
you’ll find
in the schedules in this section. So please read this section and
note how
you drive. If you have any questions on how to keep your vehicle
in good condition, see your GM dealer.
This part tells you the maintenance services
you should have done and when
you should schedule them. If you go to your dealer for your service needs,
you’ll know that GM-trained and supported service people will perform the
work using genuine GM parts.
The proper fluids and lubricants to use are listed in Part D. Make sure
whoever services your vehicle uses these. All parts should be replaced and
all necessary repairs done before you or anyone else drives the vehicle.
These schedules are
for vehicles that:
carry passengers and cargo within recommended limits. You will find
these limits on your vehicle’s CertificatiodTire label. See “Loading
Your Vehicle”
in the Index.
are driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal driving limits.
are driven off-road in the recommended manner. See “Off Road
Driving With Your Four-wheel Drive Vehicle”
in the Index.
use the recommended unleaded fuel. See “Fuel” in the Index.
Selecting the Right Schedule
The proper maintenance schedule for your vehicle depends on which engine
you have in your vehicle and how you use your vehicle.
Gasoline engine vehicles and diesel engine vehicles have different
maintenance requirements. If you have a diesel engine, follow
a schedule
designated for diesel engine vehicles
only. If you have a gasoline engine,
you must first determine whether your engine has a light duty or a heavy
duty emissions classification. Follow a maintenance schedule designated for
gasoline engines with the emissions classification (light duty or heavy duty)
for your engine. See “Engine Identification”
in the Index to find your
engine’s emission classification.
7-3
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If your engine has more than one emissions classification, the classification
is determined by the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of your vehicle
as shown on the Certification Label. See “Loading Your Vehicle” in the
Index.
Once you’ve determined your engine type and,
if necessary, emissions
classification, you’ll need
to decide which of the two schedules is right for
your vehicle. See Definitions for Maintenance Schedule I and Maintenance
Schedule I1 following.
Schedule I Definition - Gasoline Engines With Light Duty
Emissions
Follow Maintenance Schedule I if any one of these is true for your vehicle:
0 Most trips are less than 5 to 10 miles (8 to 16 km). This is particularly
important when outside temperatures are below freezing.

0 Most trips include extensive idling (such as frequent driving in
0 You operate your vehicle in dusty areas or off-road frequently.

service, police, taxi, or other commercial application.
