A CAUTIOY ~
Batteries have acid that can burn you and gas
that can explode. You can be badly hurt
if you
aren’t careful. See “Jump Starting’’ in the Index
for tips on working around a battery without getting hurt.
Contact your dealer to learn how to prepare your vehicle
for longer storage periods.
Also, for your audio system, see “Theft-Deterrent

The wrong wheel can also cause problems with
bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer or
odometer calibration, headlamp aim, bumper
height, vehicle ground clearance and tire or tire
chain clearance to the body and chassis.
See “Changing a Flat Tire” in the Index for
more information.
Used Reti ----Yt Wheels
Putting a used wheel on your vehicle is
dangerous. You can’t know how it’s been used or
how far
it’s been driven. It could fail suddenly
and cause an accident.
If you have to replace a
wheel, use a new
GM original equipment wheel.
Tire Cha’ s
NOTICE:
Use tire chains only where legal and only when
you must. Use only
SAE Class “S” type chains
that are the proper size for your tires. Install
them on the front tires and tighten them
as
tightly as possible with the ends securely
fastened. Drive slowly and follow the chain
manufacturer’s instructions.
If you can hear the
chains contacting your vehicle, stop and retighten
them.
If the contact continues, slow down until it
stops. Driving too fast or spinning the wheels
with chains on will damage your vehicle.

route the safety belts through the proper slots in the
seat cushion. Don’t let the safety belts get twisted.
Slide the rear of the cushion up and under the
seatback
so the rear-locating guides hook into the
wire loops on the back frame.
With the seat cushion lowered, push rearward and
then press down on the seat cushion until the spring
locks on both ends engage.
Check to make sure the safety belts are properly
routed and that no portion of any safety belt is trapped under the seat. Also make sure the seat
cushion is secured. Not all air conditioning refrigerants are the same.
If the air conditioning system in your vehicle needs
refrigerant, be sure the proper refrigerant is used.
If you’re not
sure, ask your dealer.
