Air Conditioning
Every now and then have your dealership check your air conditioning
system to be sure
it
has not lost any cooling ability. If
you
think
the
system
is
not
working properly, have your dealership check it out
as
soon
as
possible.
The air conditioning will not work when the temperature is below
40°F
(4°C).
Fluid
Leak
Check
After the vehicle has been parked
for
a while, inspect the surface under
the
vehicle for water,
oil,
fuel or other fluids. Water dripping from the air
conditioning system after
it
has been used
is
normal. If you notice fuel leaks
or
fumes,
the
causes should be found and corrected at once.
Lock
Cylinders
To
be sure your locks operate properly, they must be lubricated. Your
vehicle’s maintenance schedule will tell
you
how often
to
lubricate them.
See “Recommended Fluids and Lubricants”
in
the Index for the proper
lubricant to use.
You
should not use penetrating oils because they could wash out the factory
installed lubricant and cause the lock
to
bind. De-icers which contain
alcohol could also wash away
the
lubricant,
so
be sure to lubricate
the
lock
after using
a
de-icer
of
this type.
Battery
Every new
GM
vehicle has
a
Delco Freedom’ battery. You never have to
add water
to
one
of
these. When it’s time for
a
new
battery, we recommend
a Delco Freedom@ battery. Get one that has the replacement number shown
on the original battery’s label.
Vehicle
Storage
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for
25
days or more, take off the
black, negative
(-)
cable from the battery. This will help keep your battery
from running down.
