2004 CHEVROLET KODIAK door lock

Express-Down Feature
The driver’s window also has an express-down feature
that allows the window to be lowered without holding
down the switch. Press and hold the rear of the window
switch labeled AUTO for one second to activate the
express-down mode.
The express-down mode can be cancelled at any time
by pressing the front of the switch. To open the
window part way, lightly tap the switch until the window
is at the desired position.
Lockout Feature
If you have a crew cab model with power windows, the
driver’s door will have a window lockout feature.
When engaged, this feature will prevent all window
switches, except the driver’s window switches,
from operating. This switch is located above the four
window switches on the driver’s door. When the switch
is not engaged, all windows will return to normal
operation.
Sliding Rear Window
To open the sliding rear window, pull the latch toward
the driver’s side of the vehicle.
To close the window, slide the window toward the
passenger’s side of the vehicle. The latch will
automatically lock into place. Try to open the window
without releasing the latch to be sure the window
is in the locked position.
Sun Visors
To block out glare, you can swing down the visors. You
can also swing them out to block glare from the side.
Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities,
and even commercial vehicles are no exception.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make it
impossible to steal. However, there are ways you
can help.
2-10

Outside Power Mirrors
If you have outside power mirrors, they can be adjusted
from the inside of the vehicle.
The control for this
feature is located on the
driver’s door.
Select the mirror you want to move by turning the
switch clockwise to adjust the passenger’s side mirror,
or counterclockwise to adjust the driver’s side mirror.
The center position is neutral.
Then, adjust the mirror by pressing the outer arrows on
the switch until the mirror is in the desired position.
Outside Convex Mirrors
Your vehicle has convex mirrors on the lower quarter of
both the driver’s and passenger’s side rearview
mirrors. A convex mirror’s surface is curved so you can
see more from the driver’s seat.
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right or left lane,
you could hit a vehicle. Check your regular
outside mirrors (or your inside mirror, if you
have one) before changing lanes.

At Least Twice a Year
Restraint System Check
Make sure the safety belt reminder light (if equipped)
and all your belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors
and anchorages are working properly. Look for any other
loose or damaged safety belt system parts. If you see
anything that might keep a safety belt system from doing
its job, have it repaired. Have any torn or frayed
safety belts replaced.
Wiper Blade Check
Inspect wiper blades for wear or cracking. Replace
blade inserts that appear worn or damaged or that
streak or miss areas of the windshield. Also see
Cleaning the Outside of Your Vehicle on page 5-80.
Weatherstrip Lubrication
Silicone grease on weatherstrips will make them last
longer, seal better, and not stick or squeak. Apply
silicone grease with a clean cloth. During very cold,
damp weather more frequent application may be
required. Part C tells you what to use.
Body Lubrication Service
Lubricate all exposed surfaces such as door checks,
door lock bolts, lock strike plates, door hinge bushings,
latches and dovetail bumper wedges. Where oil
holes are provided a dripless oil can be used. The seat
adjusters, seat track, door weatherstrips and rubber
cap bumpers should also be lubricated. Part C tells you
what to use. More frequent lubrication may be required
when exposed to a corrosive environment.
Parking Brake Check
Park on a fairly steep hill and hold the vehicle with the
parking brake only. This checks holding ability.
6-25

Exhaust System Check
Be alert for any changes in the sound of the exhaust
system or any smell of fumes. These are signs the
system may be leaking. Have it checked and/or repaired
at once. Refer toEngine Exhaust on page 2-37and
Running Your Engine While You Are Parked on
page 2-38.
Windshield Wipers and Washers Check
Check operation and condition of the wiper blades.
Check the flow of the washer spray.
Defroster Check
Move the control to the defrost symbol and the fan to HI
or the high symbol. Then check the airflow from the
ducts at the inside base of the windshield.
Mirrors and Sun Visors Check
Check that friction joints hold mirrors and sun visors in
place.
Seat Adjuster Check
When adjusting a manual seat, be sure seat adjusters
latch by attempting to move the seat after latching.
Lamps Check
Check panel lighting, warning lights, indicator lights and
interior lamps. On the outside, check: license plate
lamps, sidemarker lamps, reflectors or lights on outside
mirrors, headlamps, parking lamps, identification and
clearance lamps, taillamps, brake lamps, turn signals,
backup lamps and hazard warning flashers. Have
headlamp aim checked at once if beams seem
improperly aimed.
Glass, Mirrors, Lamps and/or
Reectors Condition Check
Look for broken, scratched, dirty or damaged glass,
mirrors, lamps or reflectors that could reduce the view
or visibility or cause injury. Replace, clean or repair
promptly.
Door Latches Check
Check that doors close, latch and lock tightly. Check for
broken, damaged or missing parts that might prevent
tight latching.
