Don’t use abrasive cleaners on glass, because they may

cause scratches. Avoid placing decals on the inside rear

window, since they may have to be scraped off later. If

abrasive cleaners are used on the inside of the rear

window, an electric defogger element may be damaged.

Any temporary license should not be attached across the

defogger grid.

Cleaning the Outside

the

Windshield 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

the windshield with GM

Windshield Cleaner, Bon Ami@ Powder (non-scratching

glass cleaning powder), GM Part

No.

105001

The

windshield is clean

beads do not form when you rinse

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

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.

Weatherstrips

Silicone grease on weatherstrips will make them last

longer, seal better, and not stick or squeak. Apply

silicone grease with

clean cloth at least every six

months. During very cold, damp weather more frequent

application may be required. (See “Recommended

Fluids and Lubricants” in the Index.)

Cleaning the Outside

Your Vehicle

The paint finish on your vehicle provides beauty, depth

of color, gloss retention and durability.

Washing

Your

Vehicle

The best way to preserve

your

vehcle’s finish is to keep it

clean by washing it often

with

lukewarm or cold water.

Don’t wash your vehicle

the direct rays of the sun.

Don’t use strong soaps or chemical detergents. Use

liquid hand, dish

car washing (mild detergent)

soaps.

You can get GM-approved cleaning products from your

dealer. (See “Appearance Care and Materials” in the

Index.) Don’t use cleaning agents that are petroleum

based, or that contain acid or abrasives. All cleaning

agents should be flushed promptly and not allowed to

dry on the surface, or they could stain. Dry the finish

with

soft, clean chamois or an all-cotton towel to

avoid surface scratches and water spotting.
