and could burst. Always keep the
tires of your vehicle adjusted at
the standard air pressures.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
There should not be a difference in
air pressure between the inside and
outside
tires on a dual-tire wheel.
It is not easy to visually identify an
under-inflated dual-wheel tire or low
aspect ratio tire (aspect ratio at
70%). Always use an appropriate
tire air pressure gauge to check the
air pressure of any tire.
If your vehicle is equipped with
aluminum wheels, use an extension
attached to the inner tire valve
together with a standard tire air
pressure gauge or use a special air
pressure gauge when checking the
air pressure of a dual-wheel's
inner tire. Cracks and Other Damage
1. Sidewall surface
2. Gap between inner and
outer tires
3. Tread
Check the tread and sidewall
surfaces of each tire for cracks or
other damage. Especially check the
tread for nails or other metal pieces
embedded in grooves and also the
gap between the inner and outer
tires of a dual-tire wheel for pebbles
lodged in it. When checking tires, pay special
attention to: low air pressure;
pebbles or nails in tread grooves;
cracks or other damage on tire
surfaces; uneven wear; and pebbles
lodged in the gap between tires of
dual-wheel tires.

It is extremely dangerous to have
empty cans, empty bottles,
or other items rolling around on
the floor because they could get
trapped under the brake pedal
and prevent brake application. (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
For proper pedal operation, it is
also essential to lay floor mats
properly. Incorrectly installed floor
mats would hinder free movement
of the pedals.
Do not use the dashboard pocket
or the top of the dashboard as a
place to put items that could roll,
which could interfere with your
driving. You and others could be
seriously injured.
Choose Your Footwear Suitable

proper operation of pedals when
driving the vehicle. Use of
footwear unsuitable for driving
may cause an accident. The
driver could be seriously injured
when not wearing the proper
footwear.
Electrical System
Following the after-delivery service,
it is the owner's responsibility to
check all wiring periodically for
cracked, chafed or oil-soaked
insulation and maintain it in a clean
and tight condition to ensure
satisfactory operation of the
electrical system.
Headlights and Turn Signal
Lights
Turn the engine control switch to the
"ON" position, and then check the
way in which the headlights, turn
signal lights, and other exterior
lights come on and flash. In
addition, press the brake pedal to
confirm whether the stop lights
come on, and shift the transmission
to "R" position to confirm whether
the back up lights come on. Also
examine the lights for discoloration,
damage, and looseness.

Customer Satisfaction
Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are
important to your dealer and to
Chevrolet. Normally, any concerns
with the sales transaction or the
operation of the Chevrolet chassis,
or upfitted rear body will be resolved
by your dealer's sales or service
departments. Sometimes, however,
despite the best intentions of all
concerned, misunderstandings can
occur. If your concern has not been
resolved to your satisfaction, the
following steps should be taken:
STEP ONE : Discuss your concern
with a member of dealership
management. Normally, concerns
can be quickly resolved at that level.
If the matter has already been
reviewed with the sales, service,
or parts manager, contact the owner
of your dealership or the general
manager.
