This is your shift pattern. Here’s how to operate your transaxle: 1 (First Gear): Press the clutch pedal and shift into 1. Then, slowly let up on the clutch pedal as you press the accelerator pedal. You can shift into 1 when you’re going less than 20 mph (32 km/h). If you’ve come to a complete stop and it’s hard to shift into 1, put the shift lever in N (Neutral) and let up on the clutch. Press the clutch pedal back down. Then shift into 1. 2 (Second Gear): Press the clutch pedal as you let up on the accelerator pedal and shift into 2. Then, slowly let up on the clutch pedal as you press the accelerator pedal.


3,4 and 5 (Third, Fourth and Fifth Gears): Shift into 3,4 and 5 the same way you do for 2. Slowly let up on the clutch pedal as you press the accelerator pedal. To Stop: Let up on the accelerator pedal and press the brake pedal. Just before the vehicle stops, press the clutch pedal and the brake pedal, and shift to N (Neutral). N (Neutral): Use this position when you start or idle your engine. R (Reverse): To back up, press down the clutch pedal and shift into R (Reverse). Let up on the clutch pedal slowly while pressing the accelerator pedal.

Shift to R (Reverse) only afte vehicle is stopped. Shifting to R (Reverse) while your vehicle is moving could damage your transaxle.


Also, use R (Reverse), along with the parking brake, for parking your vehicle.


Shift Light (MANUAL TRANSAXLE) If you have a manual transaxle, you have a SHIFT light. This light will show you when to shift to the next higher gear for best fuel economy. When this light comes on, you can shift to the next higher gear if weather, road and traffic conditions let you. For the best fuel economy, accelerate slowly and shift when the light comes on. While you accelerate, it is normal for the light to go on and off if you quickly change the position of the accelerator. Ignore the SHIFT light when you downshift.


Shifi Speeds (MANUAL TRANSAXLE) This chart shows when to shift to the next higher gear for best fuel economy. Acceleration Shift Speeds: 17 mph (27 km/h) 1st to 2nd 30 mph (48 km/h) 2nd to 3rd 39 mph (63 h / h ) 3rd to 4th 4th to 5th 45 mph (72 h / h ) If your speed drops below 20 mph (32 h / h ) , or if the engine is not running smoothly, you should downshift to the next lower gear. You may have to downshift two or more gears to keep the engine running smoothly or for good performance.

Shifting Into P (Park) (AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE)


A It is dangerous to get out of


your vehicle if the shift lever


is not fully in P (Park) with the parking brake firmly set. Your vehicle can roll. If you have left the engine running, the vehicle can move suddenly. You or others could be injured. To be sure your vehicle won’t move, when you’re on fairly level ground, use the steps that follow. If you are parking on a hill, also see the Index under Parking on Hills.

And, if you leave the vehicle with the engine running, it could overheat and even catch fire. You or others could be injured. Don't leave your vehicle with the engine running unless you have to.


If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, be sure your vehicle is in P (Park) and your parking brake is firmly set before you leave it. After you’ve moved the shift lever into the P (Park) position, hold the regular brake pedal down. Then, see if you can move the shift lever away from P (Park) without first pushing the button. If you can, it means that the shift lever wasn’t fully locked into P (Park).


Shifting Out of P (Park) (AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE) Your Chevrolet has a brake-transaxle shift interlock. You have to fully apply your regular brakes before you can shift from P (Park) when the ignition is in the Run position. See the Index under Automatic Transu.de. If you cannot shift out of P (Park), ease pressure on the shift lever-push the shift lever all the way into P (Park) and also release the shift lever button on floor shift console models as you maintain brake application. Then move the shift lever into the gear you wish. (Press the shift lever button before moving the shift lever on floor shift console models.)

Features & Controls


rn Cruise Control (OPTION) With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of about 25 mph (40 h / h ) or more without keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can really help on long trips. Cruise control does not work at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h). When you apply your brakes, or the clutch pedal, the cruise control shuts off.


Cruise control can be


l dangerous where you can’t drive safely at a steady speed. So, don’t use your cruise control on winding roads or-in heavy traffic. Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads. On such roads, hst changes in tire traction can cause needless wheel spinning, and you could lose control. Don’t use cruise control on slippery roads.


Turn Signal and Lane Change Indicator (CONI) To signal a lane change, just raise or lower the lever until the green arrow starts to flash. Hold it there until you complete your lane change. The lever will return by itself when you release it. As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the arrows don’t flash but just stay on, a signal bulb may be burned out and other drivers won’t see your turn signal. If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an accident. If the green arrows don’t go on at all when you signal a turn, check the fuse (see the Index under Fuses & Circuit Breakers) and for burned-out bulbs.

If you leave your cruise control switch ON when I you're not using cruise, you might hit a button and go into cruise I when you don't .want to. You could be startled and even lose control. I Keep the cruise control switch WF' until you want to use it.


2. Get up to the speed you want.


3. Push in the SET button at the end of


the lever and release it.


4. Take your foot off the accelerator


pedal.


To Resume a Set Speed Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed and then you apply the brake or clutch pedal. This, of course, shuts off the cruise control. But you don't need to reset it. Once you're going about 25 mph (40 h / h ) or more, you can move the cruise control switch from ON to R/A (which stands for Resume/ Accelerate) for about half a second. You'll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay there.

Features & Controls


‘0 Resume a Set Speed (CONT.)


A If you hold the switch at RIA


longer than half a second, the vehicle will keep going faster until you release the switch or apply the brake or clutch pedal. You could be startled and even lose control. So unless you want to go faster, don’t hold the switch at RIA.


To Increase Speed While Using Cruise Control There are two ways to go to a higher speed. Here’s the first: 1. Use the accelerator pedal to get to the


higher speed.


2. Push the button at the end of the


lever, then release the button and the accelerator pedal. You’ll now cruise at the higher speed.


Here’s the second way to go to a higher speed:


Move the cruise switch from ON to R/A. Hold it there until you get up to the speed you want, and then release the switch. To increase your speed in very small amounts, move the switch to RIA for less than half a second and then release it. Each time you do this, your vehicle will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.


To Reduce Speed While Using Cruise Control There are two ways to reduce your speed while using cruise control:


Push in the button at the end of the lever until you reach the lower speed you want, then release it. To slow down in very small amounts, push the button for less than half a second. Each time you do this, you’ll go 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.


Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When you take your foot off the pedal, your vehicle will slow down to the cruise control speed you set earlier.


Using Cruise Control on Hills How well your cruise control will work on hills depends upon your speed, load, and the steepness of the hills. When going up steep hills, you may have to step on the accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. When going downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear to keep your speed down. Of course, applying the brake or clutch pedal takes you out of cruise control. Many drivers find this to be too much trouble and don’t use cruise control on steep hills.

Features & Controls


To Get Out of Cruise Control There are several ways to turn off the cruise control:


Step lightly on the brake pedal, or push the clutch pedal, if you have a manual transaxle; OR Move the cruise switch to OFF.

Operation of lights Although your vehicle's lighting system (headlights, parking lights, fog lamps, side marker lights and taillights) meets all applicable federal lighting requirements, certain states and provinces may apply their own lighting regulations that may require special attention before you operate these lamps. For example, some jurisdictions may require that you operate your lower


beam lights with fog lamps at all times, or that headlights be turned on whenever you must use your windshield wipers. In addition, most jurisdictions prohibit driving solely with parking lights, especially at dawn or dusk. It is recommended that you check with your own state or provincial highway authority for applicable righting regulations.

Warning Lights, Gages and Indicators


This section describes the warning lights and gages that may be on your vehicle. The pictures will help you locate them. Warning lights and gages can signal that something is wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention to your warning lights and gages could also save you or others from injury. Warning lights go on when there may be or is a problem with one of your vehicle’s functions. As you will see in the details on the next few pages, some warning lights come on briefly when you turn the ignition key just to let you know they’re working. If you are familiar with this section, you should not be alarmed when this happens.


Gages can indicate when there may be or is a problem with one of your vehicle’s functions. Often gages and warning lights work together to let you know when there’s a problem with your vehicle. When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on when you are driving, or when one of the gages shows there may be a problem, check the section that tells you what to do about it. Please follow the manual’s advice. Waiting to do repairs can be costly-and even dangerous. So please get to know your warning lights and gages. They’re a big help.


Fuel Gage When the ignition is on, your fuel gage tells you about how much fuel you have left. When the indicator nears E (Empty), you still have a little fuel left, but you should get more soon. Here are four things that some owners ask about. None of these show a problem with your fuel gage: At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before the gage reads F (Full). It takes a little more or less fuel to fdl up than the gage indicated. For example, the gage may have indicated the tank was half full, but it actually took a little more or less than half the tank‘s capacity to fill the tank.


The gage moves a little when you turn a comer or speed up. The gage doesn’t go back to E when you turn off the ignition. For your fuel tank capacity, see Service Station Information on the last page of this manual.


Law Coolant Warning Light (3.7L V6 ENGiNE) If this light comes on and stays on, your system is low on coolant and the engine may overheat. See the Index under Coolant and have your vehicle serviced as soon as you can.


Engine Coolant Temperature Gage With the ignition in the Run position, this gage shows the engine coolant temperature. If the gage pointer moves into the red area, your engine is too hot! It means that your engine coolant has overheated. If you have been operating your vehicle under normal driving conditions, you should pull off the road, stop your vehicle and turn off the engine as soon as possible. HOT COOLANT CAN BURN YOU BADLY! In Problems on the Road, this manual shows what to do. See the Index under Engine Overheating.

Oil Warning Light (3.7~ v6 ENGINE) If you have a problem with your oil, this light may stay on after you start your engine, or come on when you are driving. This indicates that oil is not going through your engine quickly enough to keep it lubricated. The engine could be low on oil, or could have some other oil problem. Have it fixed right away.


98


The oil light could also come on in three other situations:


When the ignition is on but the engine is not running, the light will come on as a test to show you it is working, but the light will go out when you turn the ignition to Start. If it doesn’t come on with the ignition on, you may have a problem with the fuse or bulb. Have it fixed right away. Sometimes when the engine is idling at a stop, the light may blink on and off. This is normal. If you make a hard stop, the light may come on for a moment. This is normal.


Don’t keep driving if the oil b pressure is low. If you do,


your engine can become so hot that It catches fire. You or others could be burned. Check your oil as soon as possible and have your vehicle serviced.


Damage to your engine from neglected oil problems can be costly and is not covered by YOL warranty.


L N u t IG-E


Damage to your engine from neglected oil problems can be costly and is not covered by your warrant


Don’t keep driving if the oil pressure is low. If you do,


your engine can become so hot that it catches fire. You or others could be burned. Check your oil as soon as possible and have your vehicle serviced.


Oil Pressure Gage (opTIoN) The oil pressure gage shows the engine oil pressure in psi (pounds per square inch) when the engine is running. Canadian vehicles indicate pressure in kpa. Oil pressure may vary with engine speed, outside temperature, and oil viscosity, but readings above the red warning zone indicate the normal operating range. A reading in the red zone may be caused by a dangerously low oil level or other problem causing low oil pressure. Have your vehicle serviced immediately.

Features & Controls


Charging System Light The charging system light will come on briefly when you turn on the ignition and the engine is not running, as a check to show you it is working. Then it should go out. If it stays on, or comes on while you are driving, you may have a problem with the electrical charging system. It could indicate that you have a loose generator drive belt, or another electrical problem. Have it checked right away. Driving while this light is on could drain your battery. If you must drive a short distance with the light on, be certain to turn off all your accessories, such as the radio and air conditioner.


Brake Sysfem Warning Light Your Chevrolet’s hydraulic brake system is divided into two parts. If one part isn’t working, the other part can still work and stop you. For good braking, though, you need both parts working well. If the warning light goes on, there could be a brake problem. Have your brake system inspected right away. This light should come on as you start the vehicle. If it doesn’t come on then, have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there’s a problem. This light will also come on when you set your parking brake, and will stay on if your parking brake doesn’t release fully. If it stays on after your parking brake is fully released, it means you may have a brake problem.


If the light comes on while driving, pull off the road and stop carefully. You may notice that the pedal is harder to push. Or, the pedal may go closer to the floor. It may take longer to stop. If the light is still on, have the vehicle towed for service. (See the Index under Towing Your Chevrolet.)


I /1\ Your brake system may not be


L working properly if the brake warning light is on. Driving with the brake warning light on can lead to an accident. If the light is still on after you’ve pulled off the road and stopped carefully, have the vehicle towed for service.

Comfort Controls & Audio Systems


Climate Control System With this system, you can control the ventilation and heating in your vehicle. Your vehicle also has the flow-through ventilation system described later in this section. Lever Controls: The upper lever changes the functions of your system. The lower lever changes the temperature of the air coming through the system. Slide the upper control lever to OFF to turn off the system.


3f : Sets the fan speed. To select the


force of air you want,'turn the knob.


I06


VENT Use when outside temperatures are mild and little heating or cooling is needed. Air flow is through the instrument panel outlets. Set the lower lever to the temperature desired. B/L (Bi-Level): Use on cool, but SUMY days. This setting brings in the outside air, but directs it in two ways. The cool air is directed to the upper portion of your body through the instrument panel outlets, but slightly warmer air is directed through the heater ducts and defroster vents. At times, this temperature difference may be more apparent than others. HTR (Heater): This setting brings heated air through the heater ducts, and some through the windshield defroster vents.


If you have the optional engine block heater and use it during cold weather, 0°F (-18°C) or lower, your heating system will more quickly provide heat because the engine coolant is already warmed. See the Index under Engine Block Heater. BLEND: This setting divides the air flow equally between the heater ducts and the windshield defroster vents. DEF (Defrost): This setting directs most air through the windshield defroster vents, and some through the heater ducts. Defogging Windows Slide the lower lever to HOT. To defog the windows, set the upper lever to DEF and turn the fan control to HI.


r


Air Conditioning System (OPTION)


The air conditioner and heater work best if you keep your windows closed while using them. Your vehicle also has the flow-through ventilation system described later in this section. Lever Controls: The upper lever changes the functions of your system. The lower lever changes the temperature of the air coming through the system. Slide the upper control lever to OFF to turn off the system.


I 3f : Selects the fan speed. To select


the force of air you want, turn the knob. The fan is always running unless the upper lever is moved to OFF.


Air Conditioning The upper lever has three air conditioner settings. On very hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot inside air escape. This reduces the amount of work your air conditioner's compressor will have to do, which should help fuel economy. A/C (Air Conditioning): Press this button to operate the air conditioner compressor. The indicator light will glow when the button is pressed.


The air conditioner compressor operates whenever the AIC button is pressed. It also operates automatically (and the light will glow) when in the MAX setting, or in the DEF (Defrost) setting when the outside temperature is higher than about 40°F (4.5"C). MAX (Maximum): Use for maximum cooling. This setting recirculates much of the air inside your vehicle so it maximizes your air conditioner's performance and your vehicle's fuel economy.

Comfort Controls & Audio Systems


Air Conditioning (CONX:) VENT Use on pleasant days when little heating or cooling is needed, to direct outside air into the vehicle. In this setting, the air flow is through the instrument panel outlets. B/L (Bi-Level): Use on cool, but sunny days. This setting brings in the outside air, but directs it in two ways. Air is directed to the upper portion of your body through the instrument panel outlets, and to the lower portion of your body through the heater ducts. At times, this temperature difference may be more apparent than others.


HTR (Heater): Use this setting to direct most of the air flow through the heater ducts, and some through the windshield defroster vents. If you have the optional engine block heater and use it during cold weather, 0°F (-18°C) or lower, your heating system will more quickly provide heat because the engine coolant is already warmed. See the Index under Engine Block Heater.


BLEND: This setting divides the air flow equally between the heater ducts and the windshield defroster vents. DEF (Defrost): This setting directs most air through the windshield defroster vents, and some through the heater ducts.

Defogging Windows with Air Conditioning System Slide the lower lever to HOT. To defog the front windshield, set the upper lever to DEF and turn the fan control to HI.


To defog the side windows, set the upper lever to B/L, the fan control to HI, and press the A/C button. Aim the side vents toward the side windows. For increased air flow to the side vents, close the center vents.


Rear Window Defogger (omoN) The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to remove fog from the


rear window. Press the a button and


an indicator light will glow. The defogger will turn off automatically after about ten minutes of use. If you turn it on again, the defogger will operate for about five minutes only. You can also turn the defogger off by pressing the button again, or by turning off the ignition. Do not attach a temporary vehicle license across the defogger grid on the rear window.

Comfort Controls & Audio Systems


?ear Window Defogger (cow.)


Don’t use a razor blade or something else sharp on the inside of the rear window. If you do, you could cut or damage the warming grid, and the repairs wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.


Flow-Through Ventilation System Your Chevrolet’s flow-through ventilation system lets outside air into the vehicle when it is moving. Outside air will also enter the vehicle when the heater or the air conditioning fan is running.


Ventilation Tips


Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow, or any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater and defroster will work far better, reducing the chance of fogging the inside of your windows. In cold weather, turn the blower fan to HI for a few moments before driving off. This helps clear the intake ducts of snow and moisture, and reduces the chance of fogging the inside of your windows. Keep the air path under the front seats clear of objects. This helps air to circulate throughout your vehicle.


I Audio Systems The following pages describe the audio systems available for your Chevrolet, and how to get the best performance from them. Please read about the system in your vehicle.
