Appearance Care - Pontiac 2005 Aztek Owner's Manual

All-Wheel Drive
After installing a compact spare tire on a vehicle with
all-wheel drive you will need to drive with light to
moderate acceleration, for 10 seconds, in a straight line.
This action will allow the vehicle to detect the compact
spare tire and disable the all-wheel drive system.
The AWD DISABLE message will come on in the
message center indicating that the all-wheel drive
system is off. You may detect a slight pull during this
time, but this is normal.
Notice: You may damage your vehicle's all-wheel
drive system if your vehicle is driven for an
extended period with a compact spare tire installed
and the all-wheel drive system in operations. See
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) System on page 4-11 for
more information.

Appearance Care

Cleaning products can be hazardous. Some are toxic.
Other cleaning products can burst into flames if a match
is struck near them or if they get on a hot part of the
vehicle. Some are dangerous if their fumes are inhaled in
a closed space. When anything from a container is used
to clean the vehicle, be sure to follow the manufacturer's
warnings and instructions. Always open the doors or
windows of the vehicle when cleaning the inside.
Never use these to clean the vehicle:
•
Gasoline
•
Benzene
•
Naphtha
•
Carbon Tetrachloride
•
Acetone
•
Paint Thinner
•
Turpentine
•
Lacquer Thinner
•
Nail Polish Remover
They can all be hazardous — some more than
others — and they can all damage the vehicle, too.
