2003 CHEVROLET BLAZER instrument cluster

Instrument Panel Cluster
Your instrument panel cluster is designed to let you know at a glance how your vehicle is running. You'll know how
fast you're going, about how much fuel you've used, and many other things you'll need to know to drive safely
and economically.

Tow/Haul Mode
Your vehicle may be equipped with a tow/haul feature.
The tow/haul mode is a feature that assists when
pulling a heavy trailer. The purpose of the tow/haul
mode is:
·Reduce the frequency of shifts when pulling a
heavy trailer,
·provide the same shift feel when pulling a heavy
trailer as when the vehicle is unloaded, and
·reduce the need to change throttle position when
pulling a heavy trailer.
This feature is turned on or off by pressing a button on
the ¯oor console or the shift knob. When the feature
is on, a light located on the instrument panel cluster will
illuminate to indicate that the tow/haul mode has
been selected.
See
Tow/Haul Mode Light on page 3-35. The tow/haul
mode is automatically turned off each time the vehicle is
started.
The tow/haul mode is most effective when the vehicle
and trailer combined weight is at least 75% of the Gross
Combination Weight Rating (GCWR).The tow/haul mode for hauling a heavy trailer is most
useful under the following conditions:
·When driving through hilly terrain at speeds below
55 mph (88 km/h),
·when driving in low speed or stop and go traffic
below 55 mph (88 km/h), and
·when driving in parking lots.
Operating in the tow/haul mode when not pulling a
heavy trailer will not cause damage to the vehicle, but
you may experience reduced fuel economy and
undesirable performance from the engine and
transmission. The tow/haul mode should be used only
when pulling a heavy trailer.
Weight of the Trailer
How heavy can a trailer safely be?
It depends on how you plan to use your rig. For
example, speed, altitude, road grades, outside
temperature and how much your vehicle is used to pull
a trailer are all important. And, it can also depend
on any special equipment that you have on your vehicle.
