2003 CHEVROLET TRACKER tire pressure

When rotating your tires, always use one of the correct
rotation patterns shown here.After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and
rear in¯ation pressures as shown on the Tire-Loading
Information label. Make certain that all wheel nuts
are properly tightened. See ªWheel Nut Torqueº under
Capacities and Speci®cations on page 5-93.
{CAUTION:
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the parts to
which it is fastened, can make wheel nuts
become loose after a time. The wheel could
come off and cause an accident. When you
change a wheel, remove any rust or dirt from
places where the wheel attaches to the vehicle.
In an emergency, you can use a cloth or a
paper towel to do this; but be sure to use a
scraper or wire brush later, if you need to,
to get all the rust or dirt off. See ªChanging a
Flat Tireº in the Index.

Cleaning the Windshield, Backglass
and Wiper Blades
If the windshield is not clear after using the windshield
washer, or if the wiper blade chatters when running,
wax, sap or other material may be on the blade or
windshield.
Clean the outside of the windshield with a full-strength
glass cleaning liquid. The windshield is clean if beads do
not form when you rinse it with water.
Grime from the windshield will stick to the wiper blades
and affect their performance. Clean the blade by
wiping vigorously with a cloth soaked in full-strength
windshield washer solvent. Then rinse the blade
with water.
Check the wiper blades and clean them as necessary;
replace blades that look worn.
Special Care for Canvas Top and
Plastic Windows
Your canvas top should be cleaned often. If you use an
automatic car wash, use one with water jets and
hanging cloths. High pressure car washes may cause
water to enter your vehicle.
When you hand wash the top, do it in partial shade. Use a
mild soap, lukewarm water and a soft sponge.
A chamois or cloth may leave lint on the top, and a brush
can chafe the threads in the top fabric. Don't use
detergents, harsh cleaners, solvent or bleaching agents.
Wet the entire vehicle and wash top evenly to avoid
spots or rings. Let the soap remain on the fabric for a
few minutes. When the top is really dirty, use mild
foam-type cleaner. Thoroughly rinse the entire vehicle,
then let the top dry in direct sunlight.
To protect the canvas top:
·After you wash the vehicle, make sure the top is
completely dry before you open or remove it.
·Don't get any vinyl cleaner on the vehicle's painted
®nish; it could leave streaks.
·If you decide to go through an automatic car wash,
ask the manager if the equipment could damage
your top.
