Seat Belts This section describes how to use seat belts properly, and some things not to do. { Warning Do not let anyone ride where a seat belt cannot be worn properly. In a crash, if you or your passenger(s) are not wearing seat belts, injuries can be much worse than if you are wearing seat belts. You can be seriously injured or killed by hitting things inside the vehicle harder or by being ejected from the vehicle. In addition, anyone who is not buckled up can strike other passengers in the vehicle. It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, passengers riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously (Continued) 45 Warning (Continued) injured or killed. Do not allow passengers to ride in any area of the vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts. Always wear a seat belt, and check that all passenger(s) are restrained properly too. This vehicle has indicators as a reminder to buckle the seat belts. See Seat Belt Reminders 0 84. Why Seat Belts Work Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 46 Seats and Restraints When riding in a vehicle, you travel as fast as the vehicle does. If the vehicle stops suddenly, you keep going until something stops you. It could be the windshield, the instrument panel, or the seat belts! When you wear a seat belt, you and the vehicle slow down together. There is more time to stop because you stop over a longer distance and, when worn properly, your strongest bones take the forces from the seat belts. That is why wearing seat belts makes such good sense. Questions and Answers About Seat Belts Q: Will I be trapped in the vehicle after a crash if I am wearing a seat belt? A: You could be — whether you are wearing a seat belt or not. Your chance of being conscious during and after a crash, so you can unbuckle and get out, is much greater if you are belted. Q: If my vehicle has airbags, why should I have to wear seat belts? A: Airbags are supplemental systems only. They work with seat belts — not instead of them. Whether or not an airbag is provided, all occupants still have to buckle up to get the most protection. Also, in nearly all states and in all Canadian provinces, the law requires wearing seat belts. Buckle To Drive If equipped, this feature prevents the vehicle from shifting out of P (Park) when the driver seat belt is not buckled. The Buckle to Drive feature must be turned ON in the infotainment system to work. See Vehicle Personalization 0 98 and if equipped, Teen Driver 0 157. If the engine is running, the driver seat belt is not buckled, and the brake pedal is pressed with the vehicle in P (Park), a message displays in the Driver Information Center (DIC). Buckle the driver seat belt to shift out of P (Park). Shifting from P (Park) will be prevented once for each ignition cycle. For some fleet vehicles, the feature is always ON and it cannot be turned OFF in the infotainment system. Shifting from P (Park) will be prevented each time the above conditions exist. On some models, Buckle to Drive may also prevent shifting out of P (Park) if a front passenger is unbuckled under similar conditions. A message displays in the DIC. Buckle the front passenger seat belt to shift out of P (Park). This feature may not allow the vehicle to shift out of P (Park) if an object, such as a briefcase, handbag, grocery bag, laptop, or other electronic device, is on the front passenger seat. If this happens, remove the object from the seat or buckle the seat belt to shift out of P (Park). If the driver, or on some vehicles, the present front passenger remains unbuckled, the DIC message will turn off after several seconds and the vehicle can be shifted out of P (Park). See “Seat Belts” and “Child Restraints” in the Index for information about the importance of proper restraint use. If the driver seat belt or the front passenger seat belt is unbuckled when driving, the seat belt reminder chime and light(s) will come on. See Seat Belt Reminders 0 84. This feature may not function properly if the airbag readiness light is on. See Airbag Readiness Light 0 85. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints How to Wear Seat Belts Properly .

In a crash, this applies force to the strong pelvic bones and you would be less likely to slide under the lap belt. If you slid under it, the belt would apply force on your abdomen. This could cause serious or even fatal injuries. . Wear the shoulder belt over the shoulder and across the chest. These parts of the body are best able to take belt restraining forces. The shoulder belt locks if there is a sudden stop or crash. It is very important for all occupants to buckle up.

Never allow the lap or shoulder belt to become loose or twisted. 47 Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 48 Seats and Restraints { Warning The seat belt can be pinched if it is routed under plastic trim on the seat, such as trim around the rear seatback folding handle or side airbag. In a crash, pinched seat belts might not provide adequate protection. Never allow seat belts to be routed under plastic trim pieces. Always use the correct buckle for your seating position. Never wear the shoulder belt under both arms or behind your back. Never route the lap or shoulder belt over an armrest. { Warning You can be seriously injured or killed if the shoulder belt is worn behind your back, under your legs, or wrapped around your neck. The shoulder belt can tighten but cannot be loosened if it is locked. The shoulder belt locks when it is pulled all the way out of the retractor. It unlocks when the shoulder belt is allowed to go all the way back into the retractor, but it cannot do this if it is wrapped around you. You may have to cut the seat belt if it is locked and tightened around you. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints Lap-Shoulder Belt 49 If a child will be riding in the vehicle, see Older Children 0 62 or Infants and Young Children 0 63. 2. Adjust the seat, if the seat is adjustable, so you can sit up straight. To see how, see “Seats” in the Index. All seating positions in the vehicle have a lap-shoulder belt. The following instructions explain how to wear a lap-shoulder belt properly. GT2/Competition Seat GT1 Seat 1. The seat has a seat belt guide. The seat belt must be routed through the guide to properly position the shoulder belt on occupants whose shoulder is below the guide when seated. To use the seat belt guide: GT1 Seat: Slide the edge of the belt webbing through the opening on the guide. Be sure the belt is not twisted. If a child will be riding in the vehicle, see Older Children 0 62 or Infants and Young Children 0 63. GT2/Competition Seat: Unsnap the guide to open it. Route the seat belt webbing onto the open guide and snap the guide closed. Be sure the belt is not twisted. 3. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you. Do not let it get twisted. The lap-shoulder belt may lock if you pull the belt across you very quickly. If this happens, let the belt go back slightly to unlock it. Then pull the belt across you more slowly. If the shoulder portion of a passenger belt is pulled out all the way, the child restraint locking feature may be Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 50 Seats and Restraints engaged. See Child Restraint Systems 0 65. If this occurs, let the belt go back all the way and start again. If the locking feature stays engaged after letting the belt go back to stowed position on the seat, move the seat rearward or recline the seat until the shoulder belt retractor lock releases. Engaging the child restraint locking feature in the front outboard seating position may affect the passenger sensing system. See Passenger Sensing System 0 57. If the shoulder portion of the driver belt is pulled out all the way, the shoulder belt retractor lock feature may be engaged. If this happens, let the belt go back all the way and start again. If the locking feature stays engaged after letting the belt go back to stowed position on the seat, move the seat rearward or recline the seat until the shoulder belt retractor lock releases. 4. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Pull up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure. If the belt is not long enough, see Seat Belt Extender 0 52. Position the release button on the buckle so that the seat belt could be quickly unbuckled if necessary. 5. To make the lap part tight, pull up on the shoulder belt. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints To unlatch the belt, push the button on the buckle. The belt should return to its stowed position. Always stow the seat belt slowly. If the seat belt webbing returns quickly to the stowed position, the retractor may lock and cannot be pulled out. If this happens, pull the seat belt straight out firmly to unlock the webbing, and then release it. If the webbing is still locked in the retractor, see your dealer. Before a door is closed, be sure the seat belt is out of the way. If a door is slammed against a seat belt, damage can occur to both the seat belt and the vehicle. Seat Belt Pretensioners This vehicle has seat belt pretensioners for the front outboard occupants. Although the seat belt pretensioners cannot be seen, they are part of the seat belt assembly. They can help tighten the seat belts during the early stages of a moderate to severe frontal, near frontal, or rear crash if the threshold conditions for pretensioner activation are met. Seat belt pretensioners can also help tighten the seat belts in a side crash or a rollover event. 51 Pretensioners work only once. If the pretensioners activate in a crash, the pretensioners and probably other parts of the vehicle's seat belt system will need to be replaced. See Replacing Seat Belt System Parts after a Crash 0 52. Do not sit on the outboard seat belt while entering or exiting the vehicle or at any time while sitting in the seat. Sitting on the seat belt can damage the webbing and hardware. Seat Belt Use During Pregnancy Seat belts work for everyone, including pregnant women. Like all occupants, they are more likely to be seriously injured if they do not wear seat belts. A pregnant woman should wear a lap-shoulder belt, and the lap portion should be worn as low as possible, below the rounding, throughout the pregnancy. The best way to protect the fetus is to protect the mother. When a seat belt is worn properly, it is more likely that the fetus will not be hurt in a crash. For pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to making seat belts effective is wearing them properly. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 52 Seats and Restraints Seat Belt Extender If the vehicle's seat belt will fasten around you, you should use it. But if a seat belt is not long enough, your dealer will order you an extender. Only a GM dealer issued extender should be used. When you go in to order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear, so the extender will be long enough for you. To help avoid personal injury, do not let someone else use it, and use it only for the seat it is made to fit. The extender has been designed for adults. Never use it for securing child restraints. For more information on the proper use and fit of seat belt extenders see the instruction sheet that comes with the extender. Safety System Check Periodically check the seat belt reminder, seat belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors, shoulder belt height adjusters (if equipped), and seat belt anchorages to make sure they are all in working order. Look for any other loose or damaged seat belt system parts that might keep a seat belt system from performing properly. See your dealer to have it repaired. Torn, frayed, or twisted seat belts may not protect you in a crash. Torn or frayed seat belts can rip apart under impact forces. If a belt is torn or frayed, have it replaced immediately. If a belt is twisted, it may be possible to untwist by reversing the latch plate on the webbing. If the twist cannot be corrected, ask your dealer to fix it. Make sure the seat belt reminder light is working. See Seat Belt Reminders 0 84. Keep seat belts clean and dry. See Seat Belt Care 0 52. Seat Belt Care Keep belts clean and dry. Seat belts should be properly cared for and maintained. Seat belt hardware should be kept dry and free of dust or debris. As necessary, exterior hard surfaces and seat belt webbing may be lightly cleaned with mild soap and water. Ensure there is not excessive dust or debris in the mechanism. If dust or debris exists in the system please see the dealer. Parts may need to be replaced to ensure proper functionality of the system. { Warning Do not bleach or dye seat belt webbing. It may severely weaken the webbing. In a crash, they might not be able to provide adequate protection. Clean and rinse seat belt webbing only with mild soap and lukewarm water. Allow the webbing to dry. Replacing Seat Belt System Parts after a Crash { Warning A crash can damage the seat belt system in the vehicle. A damaged seat belt system may not properly protect the person using it, resulting in serious injury or even death in a crash. To help make sure the seat belt systems are working properly after a crash, have them inspected and any necessary replacements made as soon as possible. After a minor crash, replacement of seat belts may not be necessary. But the seat belt assemblies that were used during any crash may have been stressed or damaged. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints See your dealer to have the seat belt assemblies and seat belt guides inspected or replaced. New parts and repairs may be necessary even if the seat belt system was not being used at the time of the crash. Have the seat belt pretensioners checked if the vehicle has been in a crash, or if the airbag readiness light stays on after you start the vehicle or while you are driving. See Airbag Readiness Light 0 85. Airbag System The vehicle has the following airbags: . A frontal airbag for the driver . A frontal airbag for the front outboard passenger . A seat-mounted side impact airbag for the driver . A seat-mounted side impact airbag for the front outboard passenger All vehicle airbags have the word AIRBAG on the trim or on a label near the deployment opening. For frontal airbags, the word AIRBAG is on the center of the steering wheel for the driver and on the instrument panel for the front outboard passenger. For seat-mounted side impact airbags, the word AIRBAG is on the side of the seatback or side of the seat closest to the door. Airbags are designed to supplement the protection provided by seat belts. Even though today's airbags are also designed to help reduce the risk of injury from the force of an inflating bag, all airbags must inflate very quickly to do their job. Here are the most important things to know about the airbag system: { Warning You can be severely injured or killed in a crash if you are not wearing your seat belt, even with airbags. Airbags are designed to work with seat belts, not replace them. Also, airbags are not designed to inflate in every crash. In some crashes seat belts are the only restraint. See When Should an Airbag Inflate? 0 55. (Continued) 53 Warning (Continued) Wearing your seat belt during a crash helps reduce your chance of hitting things inside the vehicle or being ejected from it. Airbags are “supplemental restraints” to the seat belts. Everyone in the vehicle should wear a seat belt properly, whether or not there is an airbag for that person. { Warning Because airbags inflate with great force and faster than the blink of an eye, anyone who is up against, or very close to, any airbag when it inflates can be seriously injured or killed. Do not sit unnecessarily close to any airbag, as you would be if sitting on the edge of the seat or leaning forward. Seat belts help keep you in position before and during a crash. Always wear the seat belt, even with airbags. The driver should sit as far back as possible while still maintaining control of the vehicle. The seat belts and the front outboard passenger airbags are (Continued) Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 54 Seats and Restraints Warning (Continued) most effective when you are sitting well back and upright in the seat with both feet on the floor. Occupants should not lean on or sleep against the door or side windows in seating positions with seat-mounted airbags. The system checks the airbag electrical system for malfunctions. The light tells you if there is an electrical problem. See Airbag Readiness Light 0 85. Where Are the Airbags? { Warning Children who are up against, or very close to, any airbag when it inflates can be seriously injured or killed. Always secure children properly in the vehicle. To read how, see Older Children 0 62 or Infants and Young Children 0 63. There is an airbag readiness light on the instrument cluster which shows the airbag symbol. The front outboard passenger frontal airbag is in the passenger side instrument panel. The driver frontal airbag is in the center of the steering wheel. Driver Side Shown, Passenger Side Similar Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints The driver and front outboard passenger seat-mounted side impact airbags are in the side of the seatbacks closest to the door. { Warning If something is between an occupant and an airbag, the airbag might not inflate properly or it might force the object into that person causing severe injury or even death. The path of an inflating airbag must be kept clear. Do not put anything between an occupant and an airbag, and do not attach or put anything on the steering wheel hub or on or near any other airbag covering. Do not use seat accessories that block the inflation path of a seat-mounted side impact airbag. When Should an Airbag Inflate? This vehicle is equipped with airbags. See Airbag System 0 53. Airbags are designed to inflate if the impact exceeds the specific airbag system's deployment threshold. Deployment thresholds are used to predict how severe a crash is likely to be in time for the airbags to inflate and help restrain the occupants. The vehicle has electronic sensors that help the airbag system determine the severity of the impact. Deployment thresholds can vary with specific vehicle design. Frontal airbags are designed to inflate in moderate to severe frontal or near frontal crashes to help reduce the potential for severe injuries, mainly to the driver's or front outboard passenger's head and chest. Whether the frontal airbags will or should inflate is not based primarily on how fast the vehicle is traveling. It depends on what is hit, the direction of the impact, and how quickly the vehicle slows down. Frontal airbags may inflate at different crash speeds depending on whether the vehicle hits an object straight on or at an angle, and whether the object is fixed or moving, rigid or deformable, narrow or wide. Frontal airbags are not intended to inflate during vehicle rollovers, in rear impacts, or in many side impacts. In addition, the vehicle has advanced technology frontal airbags. Advanced technology frontal airbags adjust the restraint according to crash severity or occupant interaction. The passenger seat 55 belt buckle provides information that is used to adjust the deployment of the front outboard passenger frontal airbag. Seat-mounted side impact airbags are designed to inflate in moderate to severe side crashes depending on the location of the impact. Seat-mounted side impact airbags are not designed to inflate in frontal impacts, near frontal impacts, rollovers, or rear impacts. A seat-mounted side impact airbag is designed to inflate on the side of the vehicle that is struck. In any particular crash, no one can say whether an airbag should have inflated simply because of the vehicle damage or repair costs. What Makes an Airbag Inflate? In a deployment event, the sensing system sends an electrical signal triggering a release of gas from the inflator. Gas from the inflator fills the airbag causing the bag to break out of the cover. The inflator, the airbag, and related hardware are all part of the airbag module. For airbag locations, see Where Are the Airbags? 0 54. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 56 Seats and Restraints How Does an Airbag Restrain? In moderate to severe frontal or near frontal collisions, even belted occupants can contact the steering wheel or the instrument panel. In moderate to severe side collisions, even belted occupants can contact the inside of the vehicle. Airbags supplement the protection provided by seat belts by distributing the force of the impact more evenly over the occupant's body. But airbags would not help in many types of collisions, primarily because the occupant's motion is not toward those airbags. See When Should an Airbag Inflate? 0 55. Airbags should never be regarded as anything more than a supplement to seat belts. What Will You See after an Airbag Inflates? After the frontal and seat-mounted side impact airbags inflate, they quickly deflate, so quickly that some people may not even realize the airbags inflated. Some components of the airbag module may be hot for several minutes. For location of the airbags, see Where Are the Airbags? 0 54. The parts of the airbag that come into contact with you may be warm, but not too hot to touch. There may be some smoke and dust coming from the vents in the deflated airbags. Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing out of the windshield or being able to steer the vehicle, nor does it prevent people from leaving the vehicle. { Warning When an airbag inflates, there may be dust in the air. This dust could cause breathing problems for people with a history of asthma or other breathing trouble. To avoid this, everyone in the vehicle should get out as soon as it is safe to do so. If you have breathing problems but cannot get out of the vehicle after an airbag inflates, then get fresh air by opening a window or a door. If you experience breathing problems following an airbag deployment, you should seek medical attention. The vehicle has a feature that may automatically unlock the doors, turn on the interior lamps and hazard warning flashers after the airbags inflate. The feature may also activate, without airbag inflation, after an event that exceeds a predetermined threshold. After turning the ignition off and then on again, the fuel system will return to normal operation; the doors can be locked, the interior lamps can be turned off, and the hazard warning flashers can be turned off using the controls for those features. If any of these systems are damaged in the crash they may not operate as normal. { Warning A crash severe enough to inflate the airbags may have also damaged important functions in the vehicle, such as the fuel system, brake and steering systems, etc. Even if the vehicle appears to be drivable after a moderate crash, there may be concealed damage that could make it difficult to safely operate the vehicle. (Continued) Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints Warning (Continued) Use caution if you should attempt to restart the engine after a crash has occurred. In many crashes severe enough to inflate the airbag, windshields are broken by vehicle deformation. Additional windshield breakage may also occur from the front outboard passenger airbag. . Airbags are designed to inflate only once. After an airbag inflates, you will need some new parts for the airbag system. If you do not get them, the airbag system will not be there to help protect you in another crash. A new system will include airbag modules and possibly other parts. The service manual for the vehicle covers the need to replace other parts. . The vehicle has a crash sensing and diagnostic module which records information after a crash. See Vehicle Data Recording and Privacy 0 316 and Event Data Recorders 0 317. . Let only qualified technicians work on the airbag system. Improper service can mean that the airbag system will not work properly. See your dealer for service. Passenger Sensing System The vehicle has a passenger sensing system for the front outboard passenger position. The passenger airbag status indicator will light on the overhead console when the vehicle is started. 57 When the system check is complete, either the word ON or OFF, or the symbol for on or off, will be visible. See Passenger Airbag Status Indicator 0 85. The passenger sensing system turns off the front outboard passenger frontal airbag under certain conditions. No other airbag is affected by the passenger sensing system. The passenger sensing system works with sensors that are part of the front outboard passenger seat and seat belt. United States The sensors are designed to detect the presence of a properly-seated occupant and determine if the front outboard passenger frontal airbag should be allowed to inflate or not. According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat in the correct child restraint for their weight and size. Canada and Mexico The words ON and OFF, or the symbols for on and off, will be visible during the system check. Rear-facing child restraints should not be transported in the vehicle, even if the airbag is off. Never put a rear-facing child seat in the front. This is because the risk to the rear-facing child is so great, if the airbag inflates. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 58 Seats and Restraints { Warning A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be seriously injured or killed if the passenger frontal airbag inflates. This is because the back of the rear-facing child restraint would be very close to the inflating airbag. A child in a forward-facing child restraint can be seriously injured or killed if the passenger frontal airbag inflates and the passenger seat is in a forward position. Even if the passenger sensing system has turned off the passenger frontal airbag, no system is fail-safe. No one can guarantee that an airbag will not inflate under some unusual circumstance, even though the airbag is off. Never put a rear-facing child restraint in the front seat, even if the airbag is off. If securing a forward-facing child restraint in the front outboard passenger seat, always move the seat as far back as it will go. It is better to secure child restraints in the rear seat. Consider using another vehicle to transport the child when a rear seat is not available. The passenger sensing system is designed to turn off the front outboard passenger frontal airbag if: . The front outboard passenger seat is unoccupied. . The system determines an infant is present in a child restraint. . A front outboard passenger takes his/her weight off of the seat for a period of time. When the passenger sensing system has turned off the front outboard passenger frontal airbag, the OFF indicator will light and stay lit as a reminder that the airbag is off. See Passenger Airbag Status Indicator 0 85. The passenger sensing system is designed to turn on the front outboard passenger frontal airbag anytime the system senses that a person of adult size is sitting properly in the front outboard passenger seat. When the passenger sensing system has allowed the airbag to be enabled, the ON indicator will light and stay lit as a reminder that the airbag is active. For some children, including children in child restraints, and for very small adults, the passenger sensing system may or may not turn off the front outboard passenger frontal airbag, depending upon the person's seating posture and body build. Everyone in the vehicle who has outgrown child restraints should wear a seat belt properly — whether or not there is an airbag for that person. { Warning If the airbag readiness light ever comes on and stays on, it means that something may be wrong with the airbag system. To help avoid injury to yourself or others, have the vehicle serviced right away. See Airbag Readiness Light 0 85 for more information, including important safety information. If the On Indicator Is Lit for a Child Restraint The passenger sensing system is designed to turn off the front outboard passenger frontal airbag if the system determines that an infant is present in a child restraint. If a child restraint has been installed and the ON indicator is lit: 1. Turn the vehicle off. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints 2. Remove the child restraint from the vehicle. 3. Remove any additional items from the seat such as blankets, cushions, seat covers, seat heaters, or seat massagers. 4. Reinstall the child restraint following the directions provided by the child restraint manufacturer and refer to Securing Child Restraints 0 67. Make sure the seat belt retractor is locked by pulling the shoulder belt all the way out of the retractor when installing the child restraint, even if the child restraint is equipped with a seat belt lock-off. When the retractor lock is set, the belt can be tightened but not pulled out of the retractor. 5. If, after reinstalling the child restraint and restarting the vehicle, the ON indicator is still lit, turn the vehicle off. Then slightly recline the vehicle seatback and adjust the seat cushion, if adjustable, to make sure that the vehicle seatback is not pushing the child restraint into the seat cushion. 6. Restart the vehicle. The passenger sensing system may or may not turn off the airbag for a child in a child restraint depending upon the child’s size. It is better to secure child restraints in a rear seat. Consider using another vehicle to transport the child when a rear seat is not available. Never put a rear-facing child restraint in the front seat, even if the ON indicator is not lit. If the Off Indicator Is Lit for an Adult-Sized Occupant If a person of adult size is sitting in the front outboard passenger seat, but the OFF indicator is lit, it could be because that person is not sitting properly in the seat or that the child restraint locking feature is 59 engaged. Use the following steps to allow the system to detect that person and enable the front outboard passenger frontal airbag: 1. Turn the vehicle off. 2. Remove any additional material from the seat, such as blankets, cushions, seat covers, seat heaters, or seat massagers. 3. Place the seatback in the fully upright position. 4. Have the person sit upright in the seat, centered on the seat cushion, with legs comfortably extended. 5. If the shoulder portion of the belt is pulled out all the way, the child restraint locking feature will be engaged. This may unintentionally cause the passenger sensing system to turn the airbag off for some adult-sized occupants. If this happens, unbuckle the belt, let the belt go back all the way, and then buckle the belt again without pulling the belt out all the way. 6. Restart the vehicle and have the person remain in this position for two to three minutes after the ON indicator is lit. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 60 Seats and Restraints { Warning If the front outboard passenger airbag is turned off for an adult-sized occupant, the airbag will not be able to inflate and help protect that person in a crash, resulting in an increased risk of serious injury or even death. An adult-sized occupant should not ride in the front outboard passenger seat, if the passenger airbag OFF indicator is lit. Additional Factors Affecting System Operation Seat belts help keep the passenger in position on the seat during vehicle maneuvers and braking, which helps the passenger sensing system maintain the passenger airbag status. See “Seat Belts” and “Child Restraints” in the Index for additional information about the importance of proper restraint use. A thick layer of additional material, such as a blanket or cushion, or aftermarket equipment such as seat covers, seat heaters, and seat massagers can affect how well the passenger sensing system operates. We recommend that you not use seat covers or other aftermarket equipment except when approved by GM for your specific vehicle. See Adding Equipment to the Airbag-Equipped Vehicle 0 60 for more information about modifications that can affect how the system operates. The ON indicator may be lit if an object, such as a briefcase, handbag, grocery bag, laptop, or other electronic device, is put on an unoccupied seat. If this is not desired, remove the object from the seat. { Warning Stowing articles under the passenger seat or between the passenger seat cushion and seatback may interfere with the proper operation of the passenger sensing system. Servicing the Airbag-Equipped Vehicle Airbags affect how the vehicle should be serviced. There are parts of the airbag system in several places around the vehicle. Your dealer and the service manual have information about servicing the vehicle and the airbag system. To purchase a service manual, see Publication Ordering Information 0 314. { Warning For up to 10 seconds after the vehicle is turned off and the battery is disconnected, an airbag can still inflate during improper service. You can be injured if you are close to an airbag when it inflates. Avoid yellow connectors. They are probably part of the airbag system. Be sure to follow proper service procedures, and make sure the person performing work for you is qualified to do so. Adding Equipment to the Airbag-Equipped Vehicle Adding accessories that change the vehicle's frame, bumper system, height, front end, or side sheet metal may keep the airbag system from working properly. The operation of the airbag system can also be affected by changing, including improperly repairing or replacing, any parts of the following: . Airbag system, including airbag modules, front or side impact sensors, sensing and diagnostic module, or airbag wiring Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints . Front seats, including stitching, seams or zippers . Seat belts . Steering wheel, instrument panel, ceiling trim, or pillar garnish trim . Inner door seals, including speakers Your dealer and the service manual have information about the location of the airbag modules and sensors, sensing and diagnostic module, and airbag wiring along with the proper replacement procedures. In addition, the vehicle has a passenger sensing system for the front outboard passenger position, which includes sensors that are part of the passenger seat. The passenger sensing system may not operate properly if the original seat trim is replaced with non-GM covers, upholstery or trim, or with GM covers, upholstery or trim designed for a different vehicle. Any object, such as an aftermarket seat heater or a comfort-enhancing pad or device, installed under or on top of the seat fabric, could also interfere with the operation of the passenger sensing system. This could either prevent proper deployment of the passenger airbag(s) or prevent the passenger sensing system from properly turning off the passenger airbag(s). See Passenger Sensing System 0 57. If the vehicle must be modified because you have a disability and have questions about whether the modifications will affect the vehicle’s airbag system, or if you have questions about whether the airbag system will be affected if the vehicle is modified for any other reason, call Customer Assistance. See Customer Assistance Offices 0 309. Airbag System Check The airbag system does not need regularly scheduled maintenance or replacement. Make sure the airbag readiness light is working. See Airbag Readiness Light 0 85. Caution If an airbag covering is damaged, opened, or broken, the airbag may not work properly. Do not open or break the airbag coverings. If there are any opened or broken airbag coverings, have the airbag covering and/or airbag module replaced. For the location of the airbags, see Where Are the Airbags? 0 54. See your dealer for service. 61 Replacing Airbag System Parts after a Crash { Warning A crash can damage the airbag systems in the vehicle. A damaged airbag system may not properly protect you and your passenger(s) in a crash, resulting in serious injury or even death. To help make sure the airbag systems are working properly after a crash, have them inspected and any necessary replacements made as soon as possible. If an airbag inflates, you will need to replace airbag system parts. See your dealer for service. If the airbag readiness light stays on after the vehicle is started or comes on when you are driving, the airbag system may not work properly. Have the vehicle serviced right away. See Airbag Readiness Light 0 85. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 62 Seats and Restraints Child Restraints Older Children . Does the lap belt fit low and snug on the hips, touching the thighs? If yes, continue. If no, return to the booster seat. . Can proper seat belt fit be maintained for the length of the trip? If yes, continue. If no, return to the booster seat. Q: What is the proper way to wear seat belts? Older children who have outgrown booster seats should wear the vehicle’s seat belts. The manufacturer instructions that come with the booster seat state the weight and height limitations for that booster. Use a booster seat with a lap-shoulder belt until the child passes the fit test below: . Sit all the way back on the seat. Do the knees bend at the seat edge? If yes, continue. If no, return to the booster seat. . Buckle the lap-shoulder belt. Does the shoulder belt rest on the shoulder? If yes, continue. If no, return to the booster seat. { Warning Never allow more than one child to wear the same seat belt. The seat belt cannot properly spread the impact forces. In a crash, they can be crushed together and seriously injured. A seat belt must be used by only one person at a time. A: An older child should wear a lap-shoulder belt and get the additional restraint a shoulder belt can provide. The shoulder belt should not cross the face or neck. The lap belt should fit snugly below the hips, just touching the top of the thighs. This applies belt force to the child's pelvic bones in a crash. It should never be worn over the abdomen, which could cause severe or even fatal internal injuries in a crash. According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in a rear seating position. In a crash, children who are not buckled up can strike other people who are buckled up, or can be thrown out of the vehicle. Older children need to use seat belts properly. { Warning Never allow a child to wear the seat belt shoulder belt under both arms or behind their back. A child can be seriously injured by not wearing the lap-shoulder belt properly. In a crash, the child would (Continued) Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints Warning (Continued) not be restrained by the shoulder belt. The child could move too far forward increasing the chance of head and neck injury. The child might also slide under the lap belt. The belt force would then be applied right on the abdomen. That could cause serious or fatal injuries. The shoulder belt should go over the shoulder and across the chest. Infants and Young Children Everyone in a vehicle needs protection! This includes infants and all other children. Neither the distance traveled nor the age and size of the traveler changes the need, for everyone, to use safety restraints. In fact, the law in every state in the United States and in every Canadian province says children up to some age must be restrained while in a vehicle. { Warning Children can be seriously injured or killed if the shoulder belt is worn behind their back, under their legs, or wrapped around their neck. The shoulder belt can tighten but cannot be loosened if it is locked. The shoulder belt locks when it is pulled all the way out of the retractor. It unlocks when the shoulder belt is allowed to go all the way back into the retractor, but it cannot do this if it is wrapped around the child. Never leave children unattended in a vehicle and never allow children to improperly wear, or play with, the seat belts. Every time infants and young children ride in vehicles, they should have the protection provided by appropriate child restraints. Neither the vehicle's seat belt system nor its airbag system is designed for them. 63 Children who are not restrained properly can strike other people, or can be thrown out of the vehicle. { Warning Never hold an infant or a child while riding in a vehicle. Due to crash forces, an infant or a child will become so heavy it is not possible to hold it during a crash. For example, in a crash at only 40 km/h (25 mph), a 5.5 kg (12 lb) infant will suddenly become a 110 kg (240 lb) force on a person's arms. An infant or child should be secured in an appropriate child restraint. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 64 Seats and Restraints { Warning Children who are up against, or very close to, any airbag when it inflates can be seriously injured or killed. Never put a rear-facing child restraint in the front outboard seat. Secure a rear-facing child restraint in a rear seat. It is also better to secure a forward-facing child restraint in a rear seat. If you must secure a forward-facing child restraint in the front outboard seat, always move the front passenger seat as far back as it will go. Child restraints are devices used to restrain, seat, or position children in the vehicle and are sometimes called child seats or car seats. There are three basic types of child restraints: . Forward-facing child restraints . Rear-facing child restraints . Belt-positioning booster seats The proper child restraint for your child depends on their size, weight, and age, and also on whether the child restraint is compatible with the vehicle in which it will be used. For each types of child restraints, there are many different models available. When purchasing a child restraint, be sure it is designed to be used in a motor vehicle and is certified to comply with US Federal or Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. If it is, the child restraint will have a label saying that it meets federal motor vehicle safety standards. The NHTSA website includes a list of registered car seat manufacturers (https://www.nhtsa.gov) and links to their registration pages for consumers. Registration helps manufacturers identify purchasers for recall notices. The instruction manual that is provided with the child restraint states the weight and height limitations for that particular child restraint. In addition, there are many kinds of child restraints available for children with special needs. { Warning To reduce the risk of neck and head injury in a crash, infants and toddlers should be secured in a rear-facing child restraint until age two, or until they reach the maximum height and weight limits of their child restraint. { Warning A young child's hip bones are still so small that the vehicle seat belt may not remain low on the hip bones, as it should. Instead, it may settle up around the child's abdomen. In a crash, the belt would apply force on a body area that is unprotected by any bony structure. This alone could cause serious or fatal injuries. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries during a crash, young children should always be secured in an appropriate child restraint. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints 65 Child Restraint Systems Forward-Facing Child Restraint Rear-Facing Infant Restraint A rear-facing child restraint provides restraint with the seating surface against the back of the infant. The harness system holds the infant in place and, in a crash, acts to keep the infant positioned in the restraint. A forward-facing child restraint provides restraint for the child's body with the harness. Booster Seats A belt-positioning booster seat is used for children who have outgrown their forward-facing child restraint. Boosters are designed to improve the fit of the vehicle's seat belt system until the child is large enough for the vehicle seat belts to fit properly without a booster seat. See the seat belt fit test in Older Children 0 62. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 66 Seats and Restraints Securing an Add-On Child Restraint in the Vehicle { Warning A child can be seriously injured or killed in a crash if the child restraint is not properly secured in the vehicle. Secure the child restraint properly in the vehicle using the vehicle seat belt, following the instructions that came with that child restraint and the instructions in this manual. To help reduce the chance of injury, the child restraint must be secured in the vehicle. Child restraints must be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap-shoulder belt, or by the LATCH system. See Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH System) 0 66 for more information. Never use a seat belt extender when installing a child restraint. Use only seats and related equipment that are certified to comply with US Federal or Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards to secure a child restraint. Children can be endangered in a crash if the child restraint is not properly secured in the vehicle. When securing an add-on child restraint, refer to the following: 1. Instruction labels provided on the child restraint 2. Instruction manual provided with the child restraint 3. This vehicle owner's manual The child restraint instructions are important, so if they are not available, obtain a replacement copy from the manufacturer. Keep in mind that an unsecured child restraint can move around in a collision or sudden stop and injure people in the vehicle. Be sure to properly secure any child restraint in the vehicle — even when no child is in it. In some areas of the United States and Canada, Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians (CPSTs) are available to inspect and demonstrate how to correctly use and install child restraints. In the U.S., refer to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website to locate the nearest child safety seat inspection station. For CPST availability in Canada, check with Transport Canada or the Provincial Ministry of Transportation office Securing the Child Within the Child Restraint { Warning A child can be seriously injured or killed in a crash if the child is not properly secured in the child restraint. Secure the child properly following the instructions that came with that child restraint. Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH System) Some child restraints have a LATCH system. As part of the LATCH system, your child restraint may have lower attachments and/ or a top tether. The LATCH system can help hold the child restraint in place during driving or in a crash. Some vehicles have lower and/or top tether anchors designed to secure a child restraint with lower attachments and/or a top tether. Some child restraints with a top tether are designed to be used whether the top tether is anchored or not. Other child restraints require that the top tether be anchored. A national or local law may require that the top tether be anchored. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints In Canada, the law requires that forward-facing child restraints have a top tether, and that the tether be attached. Your vehicle does not have lower anchors or top tether anchors to secure a child restraint with the LATCH system. If a national or local law requires that your top tether be anchored, do not use a child restraint in this vehicle because a top tether cannot be properly anchored. You must use the seat belts to secure your child restraint in this vehicle, unless a national or local law requires that the top tether be anchored. Refer to the child restraint instructions and instructions in this manual for securing a child restraint using the vehicle's seat belts. See Securing Child Restraints 0 67. Securing Child Restraints This vehicle has airbags. In addition, the vehicle has a passenger sensing system which is designed to turn off the front outboard passenger frontal airbag under certain conditions. See Passenger Sensing System 0 57 and Passenger Airbag Status Indicator 0 85 for more information, including important safety information. Never put a rear-facing child seat in the front. This is because the risk to the rear-facing child is so great if the airbag deploys. { Warning A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be seriously injured or killed if the front outboard passenger frontal airbag inflates. This is because the back of the rear-facing child restraint would be very close to the inflating airbag. A child in a forward-facing child restraint can be seriously injured or killed if the front outboard passenger frontal airbag inflates and the passenger seat is in a forward position. Even if the passenger sensing system has turned off the front outboard passenger frontal airbag, no system is fail-safe. No one can guarantee that an airbag will not deploy under some unusual circumstance, even though it is turned off. Secure rear-facing child restraints in a rear seat, even if the airbag is off. If you secure a forward-facing child restraint in the front outboard passenger seat, (Continued) 67 Warning (Continued) always move the seat as far back as it will go. It is better to secure the child restraint in a rear seat. See Passenger Sensing System 0 57 for additional information. Rear-facing child restraints should not be installed in the vehicle, even if the airbag is off. Do not secure a child seat in a position without a top tether anchor if a national or local law requires that the top tether be anchored, or if the instructions that come with the child restraint say that the top tether must be anchored. In Canada, the law requires that forward-facing child restraints have a top tether, and that the tether be attached. When using the lap-shoulder belt to secure the child restraint in this position, follow the instructions that came with the child restraint and the following instructions: 1. Move the seat as far back as it will go before securing the forward-facing child restraint. Move the seat upward or the Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 68 Seats and Restraints seatback to an upright position, if needed, to get a tight installation of the child restraint. The push button used to release the latch plate must be visible and not obscured by the child restraint. There must not be direct contact of the child restraint to the push button. When the passenger sensing system has turned off the front outboard passenger frontal airbag, the OFF indicator on the passenger airbag status indicator should light and stay lit when you start the vehicle. See Passenger Airbag Status Indicator 0 85. 2. Be sure that the shoulder belt is routed through the seat belt guide. See Lap-Shoulder Belt 0 49 for proper belt routing. 3. Put the child restraint on the seat. 4. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder portions of the vehicle seat belt through or around the restraint. The child restraint instructions will show you how. 6. Pull the shoulder belt all the way out of the retractor to set the lock. When the retractor lock is set, the belt can be tightened but not pulled out of the retractor. 5. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Position the release button on the buckle, away from the child restraint, so that the seat belt could be quickly unbuckled if necessary. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Seats and Restraints 8. Before placing a child in the child restraint, make sure it is securely held in place. To check, grasp the child restraint at the seat belt path and attempt to move it side to side and back and forth. When the child restraint is properly installed, there should be no more than 2.5 cm (1 in) of movement. If the airbag is off, the OFF indicator in the passenger airbag status indicator will come on and stay on when the vehicle is started. 7. To tighten the belt, push down on the child restraint, pull the shoulder portion of the belt to tighten the lap portion of the belt, and feed the shoulder belt back into the retractor. When installing a forward-facing child restraint, it may be helpful to use your knee to push down on the child restraint as you tighten the belt. Try to pull the belt out of the retractor to make sure the retractor is locked. If the retractor is not locked, repeat Steps 6 and 7. If a child restraint has been installed and the ON indicator is lit, see “If the On Indicator Is Lit for a Child Restraint ” under Passenger Sensing System 0 57. To remove the child restraint, unbuckle the vehicle seat belt and let it return to the stowed position. 69 Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 70 Storage Storage Storage Compartments { Warning Storage Compartments Storage Compartments . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 70 Glove Box . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 70 Cupholders . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 70 Front Storage . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 70 Rear Storage . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 71 Center Console Storage . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 72 Additional Storage Features Cupholders Do not store heavy or sharp objects in storage compartments.

This system can replace up to three remote control transmitters used to activate devices such as garage door openers, security systems, and home automation devices. These instructions refer to a garage door opener, but can be used for other devices. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Instruments and Controls Do not use the Universal Remote system with any garage door opener that does not have the stop and reverse feature. This includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982. Keep the original hand-held transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for future programming. Erase the programming when vehicle ownership is terminated. See “Erasing Universal Remote System Buttons” later in this section. To program a garage door opener, park outside directly in line with and facing the garage door opener receiver. Clear all people and objects near the garage door. Make sure the hand-held transmitter has a new battery for quick and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal. Programming the Universal Remote System Programming involves time-sensitive actions and may time out, requiring the procedure to be repeated. Read these instructions completely before programming the Universal Remote system. It may help to have another person assist with the programming process. 1. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter about 3 to 8 cm (1 to 3 in) away from the Universal Remote system buttons with the indicator light in view. The hand-held transmitter was supplied by the manufacturer of the garage door opener receiver. 2. Press and release one of the three Universal Remote system buttons to be programmed. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter button. Do not release the hand-held transmitter button until the indicator light changes from a slow to a rapid flash or continuous light. Then release the hand-held transmitter button. Some garage door openers may require substitution of Step 2 with the procedure under “Radio Signals for Some Gate Operators” later in this section. 3. Press and hold the newly programmed Universal Remote system button for five seconds while watching the indicator light and garage door activation. . If the indicator light stays on continuously or the garage door moves when the button is pressed, then programming is complete. There is no need to complete Steps 4–6. 103 . If the indicator light does not come on or the garage door does not move, a second button press may be required. For a second time, press and hold the newly programmed button for five seconds. If the indicator light stays on continuously or the garage door moves when the button is pressed, then programming is complete. There is no need to complete Steps 4–6. . If the garage door does not move, continue with programming Steps 4–6. Learn or Smart Button 4. After completing Steps 1–3, locate the Learn or Smart button inside garage on the garage door opener receiver. The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 104 Instruments and Controls 5.

Global Positioning System (GPS) If equipped, the position of the vehicle is determined by using satellite signals, various vehicle signals, and map data. At times, other interference such as the satellite condition, road configuration, condition of the vehicle, and/or other circumstances can affect the navigation system's ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle. The GPS shows the current position of the vehicle using signals sent by GPS satellites. When the vehicle is not receiving signals from the satellites, a symbol appears in the status bar. This system might not be available or interference can occur if any of the following are true: . Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, trees, large trucks, or a tunnel. . Satellites are being repaired or improved. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 134 Infotainment System For more information if the GPS is not functioning properly, see Problems with Route Guidance 0 134 and If the System Needs Service 0 134. Vehicle Positioning At times, the position of the vehicle on the map could be inaccurate due to one or more of the following reasons: . The road system has changed. . The vehicle is driving on slippery road surfaces such as sand, gravel, or snow. . The vehicle is traveling on winding roads or long, straight roads. . The vehicle is approaching a tall building or a large vehicle. . The surface streets run parallel to a freeway. . The vehicle has been transferred by a vehicle carrier or a ferry. . The current position calibration is set incorrectly. . The vehicle is traveling at high speed. . The vehicle changes directions more than once, or the vehicle is turning on a turn table in a parking lot. . The vehicle is entering and/or exiting a parking lot, garage, or a lot with a roof. . . . . . . The GPS signal is not received. A roof carrier is installed on the vehicle. Tire chains are installed on the vehicle. The tires are replaced or worn. The tire pressure for the tires is incorrect. This is the first navigation use after the map data is updated. . The 12-volt battery has been disconnected for several days. . The vehicle is driving in heavy traffic where driving is at low speeds, and the vehicle is stopped and started repeatedly. Problems with Route Guidance Inappropriate route guidance can occur under one or more of the following conditions: . The turn was not made on the road indicated. . Route guidance might not be available when using automatic rerouting for the next right or left turn. . The route might not be changed when using automatic rerouting. . There is no route guidance when turning at an intersection. . Plural names of places might be announced occasionally. . It could take a long time to operate . . . . automatic rerouting during high-speed driving. Automatic rerouting might display a route returning to the set waypoint if heading for a destination without passing through a set waypoint. The route prohibits the entry of a vehicle due to a regulation by time or season or any other regulation which may be given. Some routes might not be searched. The route to the destination might not be shown if there are new roads, if roads have recently changed, or if certain roads are not listed in the map data. See Maps 0 127. To recalibrate the vehicle's position on the map, park with the vehicle running for two to five minutes, until the vehicle position updates. Make sure the vehicle is parked in a location that is safe and has a clear view of the sky and away from large obstructions. If the System Needs Service If the navigation system needs service, see your dealer. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Infotainment System Map Data Updates The map data in the vehicle is the most up-to-date information available when the vehicle was produced. See www.gmnavdisc.com for details on ordering, purchasing, and installing a new or replacement SD card. Features are subject to change. For more information on this feature, see my.chevrolet.com/learn. Database Coverage Explanations Coverage areas vary with respect to the level of map detail available for any given area. Some areas feature greater levels of detail than others. If this happens, it does not mean there is a problem with the system. As the map data is updated, more detail can become available for areas that previously had limited detail. See Map Data Updates 0 135. Voice Recognition If equipped, voice recognition allows for hands-free operation within the navigation, audio, phone, and weather applications. This 135 feature can be started by pressing g on the steering wheel or touching g on the infotainment display. me to Place of Interest” or “Find address” and the system will walk you through by asking additional questions. However, not all features within these areas are supported by voice commands. Generally, only complex tasks that require multiple manual interactions to complete are supported by voice commands. Hybrid Speech Recognition For example, tasks that take more than one or two touches, such as a song or artist to play from a media device, would be supported by voice commands. Other tasks, like adjusting the volume or seeking up or down, are audio features that are easily performed by touching one or two options, and are not supported by voice commands. In general there are flexible ways to speak commands for completing the tasks. If your language supports it, try stating a One-Shot command, such as “Directions to address .” Do not include the ZIP code while stating the address during the command. Another example of a One-Shot Destination Entry command is, “Directions to Place of Interest at .” If these commands do not work, try saying, “Take If equipped, this feature helps distinguish words by using Internet-based information along with the system’s voice recognition database. This allows you to speak more naturally when using voice recognition. Using Voice Recognition Voice recognition becomes available once the system has been initialized. This begins when the ignition is turned on. Initialization may take a few moments. 1. Press g on the steering wheel controls to activate voice recognition. 2. The audio system mutes and the system plays a prompt. 3. Clearly speak one of the commands described in this section. A voice recognition system prompt can be interrupted while it is playing by pressing g again. Once voice recognition is started, both the infotainment display and instrument cluster show the selections and visual dialog Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 136 Infotainment System content. These displays can be turned on or off in the Tutorial Mode under Settings 0 151. There are three voice prompt modes supported: . Informative verbal prompts: This type of prompt will provide more information regarding the supported actions. . Short prompts: This type of prompt will provide simple instructions about what can be stated. . Auto informative prompts: This type of prompt plays during the first few speech sessions, then automatically switches to the short prompt after some experience has been gained through using the system. If a command is not spoken, the voice recognition system says a help prompt. Prompts and Infotainment Displays While a voice recognition session is active, there may be corresponding options showing on the displays. A selection can be made by manually touching the option, or by speaking the number for the option to select. Manual interaction in the voice recognition session is permitted. Interaction during a voice session may be completed entirely using voice commands while some manual commands may expedite a task. If a selection is made using a manual control, the voice recognition dialog will progress in the same way as if the selection were made using a voice command. Once the system completes the task, or the session is terminated, the voice recognition dialog stops. An example of this type of manual intervention is touching an entry of a displayed number list instead of speaking the number associated with the entry desired. Canceling Voice Recognition . Touch or say “Cancel” or “Exit” to terminate the voice recognition session and show the display where voice recognition was initiated. c on the steering wheel controls to terminate the voice recognition session and show the display where voice recognition was initiated. . Press Natural Language Commands Most languages do not support natural language commands in sentence form. For those languages, use direct commands like the examples shown on the display. Helpful Hints for Speaking Commands Voice recognition can understand commands that are naturally stated in sentence form or direct commands that state the application and the task. For best results: . Listen for the prompt before saying a command or reply. . Speak the command naturally, not too fast, not too slow. . Use direct commands without a lot of extra words. For example, “Call at work,” “Play” followed by the artist or song name, or “Tune” followed by the radio station number. . Navigation destinations can be made in a single command using keywords. A few examples are: “I want directions to an address,” “I need to find a place of interest or (POI),” or “Find contact.” The system responds by requesting more details. For other POIs, say the name of a category like “Restaurants,” “Shopping Malls,” or “Hospitals.” . Navigating to a destination outside of the current country takes more than one command. The first command is to tell the system where the navigation will take Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Infotainment System place, such as an Address, Intersection, POI, or Contact. If Address or Intersection is selected, the second command is to say, “Change Country.” Once the system responds, say the country before saying the rest of the address and/or intersection. If POI is asked for, say “Change Location,” then “Change Country.” Direct commands might be more clearly understood by the system. An example of a direct command would be “Call .” Examples of these direct commands are displayed on most of the screens while a voice session is active. If “Phone” or “Phone Commands,” is spoken, the system understands that a phone call is requested and will respond with questions until enough details are gathered to make a call. If a cell phone number has been saved with a name and a place, the direct command should include both, for example “Call at work.” Using Voice Recognition for List Options When a list is displayed, a voice prompt will ask to confirm or select an option from that list. When a display contains a list, there may be options that are available but not displayed. The list on a voice recognition screen functions the same as a list on other displays. Scrolling or flinging can be used to help display other entries from the list. Manually scrolling or paging the list on a display during a voice recognition session suspends the current voice recognition event and plays the prompt “Please select manually or touch the Back icon on the infotainment display to try again.” If manual selection takes more than 15 seconds, the session terminates and prompts that it has timed out. The display returns to the display where voice recognition was initiated. The Back Command Say “Back” or touch the Back icon on the infotainment display to go to the previous menu. If in voice recognition, and “Back” is spoken all the way back to the starting display, and then “Back” is spoken one more time, the voice recognition session will cancel. 137 Help Say “Help” on any voice recognition display and the help prompt for the display is played. Voice Recognition for the Radio If browsing the audio sources when voice is touched, the voice recognition commands for AM, FM, and SiriusXM (if equipped) are available. “Switch to AM” : Switch bands to AM and tune to the last AM radio station. “Switch to FM” : Switch bands to FM and tune to the last FM radio station. “Switch to SXM” : Switch bands to SiriusXM and tune to the last SiriusXM channel. “Tune to AM” : Tune to the radio station whose frequency is identified in the command (like “nine fifty”). “Tune to FM” : Tune to the radio station whose frequency is identified in the command (like “one oh one point one”). “Tune to AM HD” : Tune to the HD Radio station whose frequency is identified in the command. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 138 Infotainment System “Tune to FM HD” : Tune to the HD Radio station whose frequency is identified in the command. “Tune to FM HD ” : Tune to the HD Radio station whose frequency and HD channel are identified in the command. “Tune to SXM ” : Tune to the SiriusXM radio station whose channel number is identified in the command. “Tune to SXM ” : Tune to the SiriusXM radio station whose channel name is identified in the command. “Play Song” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific song name. “Play Episode” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific name. “Play Song ” : Begin playback of a specific song, if available. “Play Episode ” : Begin playback of a specific episode. “Play Genre” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific genre. “Play Podcast” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific podcast. “Play Genre ” : Begin playback of a specific genre. “Play Podcast ” : Begin playback of a specific podcast. “Play Playlist” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific playlist name. “My Media” : Begin a dialog to enter the desired media content. “Play Playlist ” : Begin playback of a specific playlist. Handling Large Amounts of Media Content The available voice recognition commands for [browsing] MyMedia are: “Play ” : Play music from a specific device identified by name. The device name is the name displayed on the display when the device is first selected as an audio source. “Play Artist” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific artist name. “Play Chapter” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific name. “Play Artist ” : Begin playback of a specific artist. “Play Chapter ” : Begin playback of a specific chapter. “Play Album” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific album name. “Play Audiobook” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific audiobook. “Play Album ” : Begin playback of a specific album. “Play Audiobook ” : Begin playback of a specific audiobook. Voice Recognition for Audio MyMedia It is expected that large amounts of media content will be brought into the vehicle. It may be necessary to handle large amounts of media content in a different way than smaller amounts of media. The system may limit the options of voice recognition by not allowing selection of files by voice at the highest level if the number of files exceeds the maximum limit. Changes to voice commands due to media content limits are: . Files including other individual files of all media types such as songs, audiobook chapters, podcast episodes, and videos. . Album type folders including types such as albums and audiobooks. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Infotainment System There are no restrictions if the number of files and albums is fewer than 12,000. When the number of files connected to the system is between 12,000 and 24,000, the content cannot be accessed directly with one command like “Play .” The restriction is that the command “Play Song” must be spoken first; the system will then ask for the song name. The reply command would be to say the name of the song to play. Similar limits exist for album content. If there are more than 12,000 albums, but fewer than 24,000, the content cannot be accessed directly with one command like, “Play .” The command “Play Album” must first be spoken; the system will then ask for the album name. The reply would be to say the name of the album to play. Once the number of files has exceeded approximately 24,000, there is no support for accessing the songs directly through voice commands. There will still be access to the media content by using commands for playlists, artists, and genres. The access commands for playlists, artists, and genres are prohibited after the number of this type of media exceeds 12,000. The system will provide feedback the first time voice recognition is initiated if it has become apparent that any of these limits are reached during a device initializing process. Voice recognition performance will degrade to some extent based on many factors when adding large amounts of data to recognize. If this is the case, perhaps accessing songs through playlists or artist name would work better. Voice Recognition for Navigation “Navigation” : Begin a dialog to enter specific destination information. “Navigation Commands” : Begin a dialog to enter specific destination information. “Address” : Begin a dialog to enter a specific destination address, which includes the entire address consisting of the house number, street name, city, state/province, and country. Do not include the ZIP code. “Place of Interest” : Begin a dialog to enter a destination Place of Interest category or major brand name. The name must be precisely spoken. Nicknames or short names for the businesses will not likely be found.

Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from the air inlets at the base of the windshield that may block the flow of air into the vehicle. . Clear snow off the hood to improve visibility and help decrease moisture drawn into the vehicle. . Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors may adversely affect the performance of the system. . Keep the areas around the base of the infotainment display and under the seats clear to optimize air circulation. The passenger compartment air filter reduces dust, pollen, and other airborne irritants from outside air that are pulled into the vehicle. Reductions in airflow, which may occur more often in dusty areas, indicate that the filter may need to be replaced. See Maintenance Schedule 0 292. Caution Driving without a passenger compartment air filter in place can cause water and small particles, like paper and leaves, to be pulled into your climate control system which may cause damage to it. Make sure you always replace the old filter with a new one. The passenger compartment air filter is located under the hood between the battery and windshield. See Underhood Compartment Overview 0 231. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 172 Climate Controls To check or replace the air filter: 1. Release the four clips for the left and right outer covers. 2. Release the five clips and remove the outer cover. 3. Press two push tabs on the top and on the bottom of the cabin air filter cover and remove the cover. 4. Remove the air filter. 5. Install the new air filter and cover. 6. Install the outer cover. 7. Install the right and left outer covers. Service All vehicles have a label underhood that identifies the refrigerant used in the vehicle. The refrigerant system should only be serviced by trained and certified technicians. The air conditioning evaporator should never be repaired or replaced by one from a salvage vehicle. It should only be replaced by a new evaporator to ensure proper and safe operation. During service, all refrigerants should be reclaimed with proper equipment. Venting refrigerants directly to the atmosphere is harmful to the environment and may also create unsafe conditions based on inhalation, combustion, frostbite, or other health-based concerns. The air conditioning system requires periodic maintenance. See Maintenance Schedule 0 292. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Driving and Operating Driving Information Driving for Better Fuel Economy . . . . . . . 174 Distracted Driving . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 174 Defensive Driving . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 175 Impaired Driving . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 175 Control of a Vehicle . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 175 Braking . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 175 Steering . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 175 Off-Road Recovery . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 176 Loss of Control . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 177 Track Events and Competitive Driving . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 177 Driving on Wet Roads . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 183 Hill and Mountain Roads . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 184 Winter Driving . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 185 If the Vehicle Is Stuck . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 186 Vehicle Load Limits . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 186 Starting and Operating New Vehicle Break-In . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 189 Front Air Dam (and Splitter) . . . . . . . . . . . 190 Composite Materials . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 190 Ignition Positions . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 190 Starting the Engine . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 192 Retained Accessory Power (RAP) . . . . . . . 193 Shifting Into Park . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 193 Shifting out of Park . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 194 Parking over Things That Burn . . . . . . . . 194 Active Fuel Management . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 194 Extended Parking . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 194 Engine Exhaust Engine Exhaust . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 195 Running the Vehicle While Parked . . . . . 195 Dual Clutch Transmission Dual Clutch Transmission . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 195 Manual Mode . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 198 Brakes Electric Brake Boost . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 202 Antilock Brake System (ABS) . . . . . . . . . . 202 Electric Parking Brake . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 203 Brake Assist . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 204 Hill Start Assist (HSA) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 204 Ride Control Systems Traction Control/Electronic Stability Control . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 205 Hill Rollback Control . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 206 Driver Mode Control . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 206 Front Lift System . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 212 Competitive Driving Mode . . . . . . . . . . . . . 213 Limited-Slip Differential (Without Z51) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 216 Limited-Slip Differential (With Z51) . . . . . 216 Cruise Control Cruise Control . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 216 173 Driver Assistance Systems Driver Assistance Systems . . . . . . . . . . . . . 218 Assistance Systems for Parking or Backing . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 220 Rear Vision Camera (RVC) . . . . . . . . . . . . . 220 Curb View Camera . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 221 Park Assist . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 222 Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) System . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 222 Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA) . . . . . . . . . . . 222 Fuel Top Tier Fuel . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 224 Recommended Fuel . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 224 Prohibited Fuels . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 224 Fuels in Foreign Countries . . . . . . . . . . . . . 225 Fuel Additives . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 225 Filling the Tank . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 225 Filling a Portable Fuel Container . . . . . . . 226 Trailer Towing General Towing Information . . . . . . . . . . . 227 Conversions and Add-Ons Add-On Electrical Equipment . . . . . . . . . . . 227 Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 174 Driving and Operating Driving Information Driving for Better Fuel Economy Driving habits can affect fuel mileage. Here are some driving tips to get the best fuel economy possible: . Set the climate controls to the desired temperature after the engine is started, or turn them off when not required. . Avoid fast starts and accelerate smoothly. . Brake gradually and avoid abrupt stops. . Avoid idling the engine for long periods of time. . When road and weather conditions are appropriate, use cruise control. . Always follow posted speed limits or drive more slowly when conditions require. . Keep vehicle tires properly inflated. . Combine several trips into a single trip. . Replace the vehicle's tires with the same TPC Spec number molded into the tire's sidewall near the size. . Follow recommended scheduled maintenance. . Using Tour mode rather than Sport or Track modes, will result in better Active Fuel Management operation. See Active Fuel Management 0 194. . For recommended shift speeds, see Dual Clutch Transmission 0 195. . Watch the road. Do not read, take notes, . . Premium Fuel Use the recommended fuel. See Recommended Fuel 0 224. Distracted Driving Distraction comes in many forms and can take your focus from the task of driving. Exercise good judgment and do not let other activities divert your attention away from the road. Many local governments have enacted laws regarding driver distraction. Become familiar with the local laws in your area. To avoid distracted driving, keep your eyes on the road, keep your hands on the steering wheel, and focus your attention on driving. . Do not use a phone in demanding driving situations. Use a hands-free method to place or receive necessary phone calls. . . . . or look up information on phones or other electronic devices. Designate a front seat passenger to handle potential distractions. Become familiar with vehicle features before driving, such as programming favorite radio stations and adjusting climate control and seat settings. Program all trip information into any navigation device prior to driving. Wait until the vehicle is parked to retrieve items that have fallen to the floor. Stop or park the vehicle to tend to children. Keep pets in an appropriate carrier or restraint. Avoid stressful conversations while driving, whether with a passenger or on a cell phone. { Warning Taking your eyes off the road too long or too often could cause a crash resulting in injury or death. Focus your attention on driving. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Refer to the infotainment section for more information on using that system and the navigation system, if equipped, including pairing and using a cell phone. Defensive Driving Defensive driving means “always expect the unexpected.” The first step in driving defensively is to wear the seat belt. See Seat Belts 0 45. . Assume that other road users (pedestrians, bicyclists, and other drivers) are going to be careless and make mistakes. Anticipate what they may do and be ready. . Allow enough following distance between you and the driver in front of you. . Focus on the task of driving. Warning (Continued) can be affected by even a small amount of alcohol or drugs. You can have a serious — or even fatal — collision if you drive after drinking or taking drugs. Do not drive while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or ride with a driver who has been drinking or is impaired by drugs. Find alternate transportation home; or if you are with a group, designate a driver who will remain sober. Control of a Vehicle Braking, steering, and accelerating are important factors in helping to control a vehicle while driving. Impaired Driving Braking Death and injury associated with impaired driving is a global tragedy. Braking action involves perception time and reaction time. Deciding to push the brake pedal is perception time. Actually doing it is reaction time. { Warning Drinking alcohol or taking drugs and then driving is very dangerous. Your reflexes, perceptions, attentiveness, and judgment (Continued) Average driver reaction time is about three-quarters of a second. In that time, a vehicle moving at 100 km/h (60 mph) travels 20 m (66 ft), which could be a lot of distance in an emergency. 175 Helpful braking tips to keep in mind include: . Keep enough distance between you and the vehicle in front of you. . Avoid needless heavy braking. . Keep pace with traffic. If the engine ever stops or a brake fault occurs, the brakes may lose power assist. More effort will be required to stop the vehicle. It may take longer to stop. Steering Caution To avoid damage to the steering system, do not drive over curbs, parking barriers, or similar objects at speeds greater than 3 km/h (1 mph). Use care when driving over other objects such as lane dividers and speed bumps. Damage caused by misuse of the vehicle is not covered by the vehicle warranty. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 176 Driving and Operating Normal use of the power steering assist should return when the system cools down. See your dealer if there is a problem. Dynamic Rack Travel Electric Power Steering The vehicle has electric power steering. It does not have power steering fluid. Regular maintenance is not required. If power steering assist is lost due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can be steered, but may require increased effort. If the steering assist is used for an extended period of time while the vehicle is not moving, power assist may be reduced. If the steering wheel is turned until it reaches the maximum rotation and is held at that position for an extended period of time, power steering assist may be reduced. If equipped with Magnetic Ride Control, Dynamic Rack Travel (DRT) is a steering system feature which enhances driving by providing additional maximum steering wheel rotation to allow a tighter turning radius during low speed driving conditions. If the vehicle speed increases or if the suspension encounters significant wheel travel, such as a driveway, while at maximum steering rotation, DRT may gently push the steering back a small amount to prevent the front tires from contacting the vehicle. This is normal operation. There is no customer interface or display for this feature. DRT is not available when in Track Mode. Curve Tips . Take curves at a reasonable speed. . Reduce speed before entering a curve. . Maintain a reasonable and steady speed through the curve. . Wait until the vehicle is out of the curve before accelerating gently into the straightaway. Steering in Emergencies . There are some situations when steering around a problem may be more effective than braking. . Holding both sides of the steering wheel allows you to turn 180 degrees without removing a hand. . The Antilock Brake System (ABS) allows steering while braking. Off-Road Recovery Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating The vehicle's right wheels can drop off the edge of a road onto the shoulder while driving. Follow these tips: 1. Ease off the accelerator and then, if there is nothing in the way, steer the vehicle so that it straddles the edge of the pavement. 2. Turn the steering wheel about one-eighth of a turn, until the right front tire contacts the pavement edge. 3. Turn the steering wheel to go straight down the roadway. Loss of Control Skidding There are three types of skids that correspond to the vehicle's three control systems: . Braking Skid — wheels are not rolling. . Steering or Cornering Skid — too much speed or steering in a curve causes tires to slip and lose cornering force. . Acceleration Skid — too much throttle causes the driving wheels to spin. Defensive drivers avoid most skids by taking reasonable care suited to existing conditions, and by not overdriving those conditions. But skids are always possible. If the vehicle starts to slide, follow these suggestions: . Ease your foot off the accelerator pedal and steer the way you want the vehicle to go. The vehicle may straighten out. Be ready for a second skid if it occurs. . Slow down and adjust your driving according to weather conditions. Stopping distance can be longer and vehicle control can be affected when traction is reduced by water, snow, ice, gravel, or other material on the road. Learn to recognize warning clues — such as enough water, ice, or packed snow on the road to make a mirrored surface — and slow down when you have any doubt. . Try to avoid sudden steering, acceleration, or braking, including reducing vehicle speed by shifting to a lower gear. Any sudden changes could cause the tires to slide. Remember: Antilock brakes help avoid only the braking skid. 177 Track Events and Competitive Driving Vehicles without Z51 package should not be used for track events and competitive driving. { Danger High-performance features are intended for use only on closed tracks by experienced and qualified drivers and should not be used on public roads. High-speed driving, aggressive cornering, hard braking, and other high-performance driving can be dangerous. Improper driver inputs for the conditions may result in loss of control of the vehicle, which could injure or kill you or others. Always drive safely. Participating in track events or other competitive driving without following the instructions provided may affect the vehicle warranty. See the warranty manual before using the vehicle for racing or other competitive driving. See Competitive Driving Mode 0 213. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 178 Driving and Operating { Warning Some of the adjustments and procedures specified in this section may require specialized skill, training, and equipment. Failure to perform these procedures properly could cause malfunction, potentially resulting in death, personal injury, or damage to the vehicle or property. Do not attempt to perform these adjustments or procedures unless properly qualified. Be sure to follow all service procedures before driving the vehicle at track events or competitively. See New Vehicle Break-In 0 189. { Warning Prior to each track event and again before returning to public roads, tighten the wheel nuts with a torque wrench to the proper torque specification. Wheel nuts that are improperly or incorrectly tightened can cause the wheels to become loose or come off, resulting in a crash. See Capacities and Specifications 0 304 for wheel nut torque specifications. If equipped, the front license plate bracket should be removed and replaced with the aero cover for track use. Maintain a mixture of 40% DEX-COOL coolant and 60% clean, drinkable water to optimize engine performance. Engine Sound Management Setting Fuel Caution Do not place the vehicle in Engine Sound Management – Stealth mode. Damage could result to exhaust valve actuators. Engine Oil Caution If the vehicle is used for track events and competitive driving, the engine may use more oil than it would with normal use. Low oil levels can damage the engine. Check the oil level often and maintain the proper level. See Engine Oil 0 235. Check the oil level often during track events and competitive driving. See “Checking the Engine Oil" in Engine Oil 0 235. Engine Cooling If reduced performance is experienced during track events or competitive driving, turning off the A/C will help to improve engine performance. Unleaded gasoline, rated at 93 octane or higher, is required. Caution Some high octane fuels contain additives and compounds that may damage the vehicle and void the vehicle warranty. See Prohibited Fuels 0 224. Dual Clutch Transmission Fluid The transmission fluid and external filter should be changed after every 24 hours of track usage. If prompted by the transmission fluid life monitor that remaining fluid life is low, the fluid and external filter should be changed as soon as possible. Add an additional 2 L (2 qt) of DCT transmission fluid prior to track usage. It is not required to remove the additional 2 L (2 qt) of DCT fluid. Any transmission level set or change should be performed at your dealer. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating 179 Brakes Brake Fluid Brake Leak Detection Battery Disconnect Replace existing brake fluid with a qualified high performance DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container. Brake fluid with a dry boiling point >310 °C (590 °F) is qualified. If high performance brake fluid is used, replace it with GM approved brake fluid before driving on public roads. If high performance brake fluid is in the vehicle and the age of the brake fluid is over a month old or unknown, replace the brake fluid before track events and competitive driving. Do not use silicone or DOT-5 brake fluids. The hydraulic braking system has advanced diagnostic capability to help detect hydraulic leaks, trapped air, and other performance issues. These diagnostics are active when the hydraulic system is powered. In order to avoid inadvertently setting a leak Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC), disconnect the battery before servicing the brake system. Disconnect the battery before servicing the hydraulic brake system. It is critical to disconnect the battery before bleeding the system, replacing the pads, or any other work. The battery must be disconnected to prevent the brake master cylinder from pressurizing the hydraulic system during its automated self diagnostic tests that can possibly occur when a door is opened or the remote key is present. { Warning To avoid personal injury and/or vehicle damage, always disconnect the battery before performing service work on the hydraulic brake system. Bleeding the brake system with the battery connected can lead to excessive pressurization of the system during automatic diagnostic tests or diagnosis of a leak or air in the braking system. A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) may set and vehicle speed may be limited. Check the fluid level before each competitive driving event. Brake System Flushing & Bleeding The J55 brake system requires specific processes for bleeding and fluid flushing. These can be found in the service manual. Properly bleeding the brake system is required for proper operation of the hydraulic brake system. If the vehicle sets a DTC related to a brake system leak, the Brake System Warning Light will come on and vehicle speed may be limited to 100 kph (62 mph). Any time a leak DTC is set, the vehicle should be inspected carefully for evidence of a leak and should be repaired immediately. See your dealer. Brake Fade Warning Assist The Brake Fade Warning Assist system monitors the performance of the brake system. If the system detects brake fade, or if the brake fluid is near the boiling point, the driver will be alerted. The Brake Fade Warning Assist system is designed for use with the factory-installed brake pads or GM-approved replacement pads. If the brake pads on the vehicle need Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 180 Driving and Operating to be replaced, use GM-approved brake pads. If this is not done, the brake fade warning system may not function properly. Stage 1 : The Driver Information Center (DIC) displays a “Reduce Braking to Avoid Overheating” message and brake pedal effort and travel is increased. When the message displays, the driver should decrease brake pedal pressure. Stage 2 : The Driver Information Center (DIC) displays a “Brakes Overheated Service Now” message that the brake fluid temperature is excessive and is about to boil. The system increases brake pedal effort and travel, and will also limit vehicle speed. The driver should immediately start a cool down lap if on the track. If this message displays, take the vehicle to be serviced at your dealer. Brake Burnishing New brake pads must be burnished before racing or other competitive driving. Caution Performing the brake burnish procedure on a base brake system can result in brake damage. Caution The new vehicle break-in period should be completed before performing the brake burnish procedure, otherwise damage may occur to the powertrain/engine. See New Vehicle Break-In 0 189. Caution Brake pedal fade will occur during any track burnish procedure and can cause brake pedal travel and force to increase. This could extend stopping distance until the brakes are fully burnished. When this procedure is performed as instructed, it will not damage the brakes. The brake pads will smoke and produce an odor. The braking force and pedal travel may increase. After the procedure, the brake pads may appear white at the rotor contact. Perform this procedure only on dry pavement, in a safe manner, and in compliance with all local and state ordinances/laws regarding motor vehicle operation. Brake Burnishing Procedure This brake burnish procedure should only be run on vehicles with the J55 Z51 factory equipped brake system. 1. Using the G-Force Gauge in the HUD display, apply the brakes 25 times starting at 100 km/h (60 mph) to 50 km/h (30 mph) while decelerating at 0.4 g. See Head-Up Display (HUD) 0 94. This is a medium brake application. Drive for at least 1 km (0.6 mi) between applying the brakes. This first step may be skipped if there are more than 320 km (200 mi) on the brake pads. 2. Apply the brakes 25 times starting at 100 km/h (60 mph) to 25 km/h (15 mph) while decelerating at 0.8 g. This is a hard brake application without activating the Antilock Brake System (ABS). Drive for at least 1 km (0.6 mi) between applications. Depending on conditions, some increase in brake pedal travel and brake pedal force may be experienced. 3. Cool down: Drive at 100 km/h (60 mph) for approximately 15 km (10 mi) without using the brakes. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating 4. Apply the brakes 25 times from 100 km/h (60 mph) to 50 km/h (30 mph) while decelerating at 0.4 g. This is a medium brake application. Drive for at least 1 km (0.6 mi) between applications. As with all high performance brake systems, some amount of brake squeal is normal. Alternative Closed Course Brake Burnishing Procedure This brake burnish procedure should only be run on vehicles with the J55 Z51 factory equipped brake system. This procedure should only be run on a track and only on dry pavement. Brake pedal fade will occur during this track burnish procedure and can cause brake pedal travel and force to increase. This could extend stopping distance until the brakes are fully burnished. 1. Start track lapping at lower speeds and lower braking efforts for three minutes of driving. Allow for increased braking distances due to reduced brake output. 181 2. After Step 1, increase speed and braking effort for the next six minutes of lapping, gradually ending up at 90% effort. Continue to allow for increased braking distance due to reduced brake output. 3. Cool the brakes by lapping with minimal light braking for six minutes. Brake Cooling Kit Prior to any track event, high speed driving event, or competitive driving, the following should be completed: . Ensure all brake cooling parts are correctly and securely installed. . Install the rear lower control arm cooling ducts per the instructions below also included with the kit. After any track event or competitive driving, remove the rear lower control arm cooling ducts. These parts are for track use only. Removing the ducts helps prevent debris from being channeled into the rear brakes during regular use of the vehicle. . Inspect for and remove any blockage in the ducts. . Inspect and replace any duct that has damage. Right Side Front Shown, Left Side Front Similar 1. Front Brake Cooling Duct 2.

Rear Knuckle Mounted Cooling Duct 4. Rear Lower Control Arm Cooling Duct Shock Spring Seat Adjustment The front shocks, on vehicles without hydraulic front lift and rear shocks, have threaded spring seats that allow adjustment of the preload on the coil springs. The vehicle corner weights can be adjusted for track use. If the vehicle trim height is modified, it should be returned to normal trim height before street use. The spring seat can be adjusted approximately 20 mm (0.8 in) up or down from the nominal position. Each complete turn of the spring seat will change the vehicle height approximately 1.5 mm (0.06 in). When adjusting the seat to the upper limit, lift the dust boot and ensure the seat does not thread off the center support tube (stop adjustment when threads no longer visible). When adjusting the seat to the lower limit, leave approximately 10 mm (0.4 in) of thread visible for the lower lock nut to have full thread engagement. The following procedure can be complex and should only be performed by trained personnel. See your dealer. To adjust the lower spring seat: 1. Raise the vehicle so the tires are completely off the ground. Front Shown, Rear Similar 2. Loosen the lower spring seat lock nut (2). 3. Thread the lower spring seat lock nut (2) downward off of the threads to its resting location on the shoulder of the center support tube. 4. While holding the center support tube holes, turn the spring seat (1) upward to increase spring preload, or downward to decrease spring preload. 5. Thread the lower lock nut (2) back on to the center support tube and torque it against the spring seat (1) to 25 Y (18.4 lb ft). Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Load Limit Caution (Continued) Limit vehicle load to the driver only, with no other cargo. Inflate the front tires to 159 kPa (23 psi) and the rear tires to 165 kPa (24 psi). Drive at a maximum speed of 296 km/h (184 mph). Road Course target hot pressures of 220–240 kPa (32–35 psi).

Driving on Wet Roads Rain and wet roads can reduce vehicle traction and affect your ability to stop and accelerate. Always drive slower in these types of driving conditions and avoid driving through large puddles and deep-standing or flowing water. { Warning Wet brakes can cause crashes. They might not work as well in a quick stop and could cause pulling to one side. You could lose control of the vehicle. After driving through a large puddle of water or a car/vehicle wash, lightly apply the brake pedal until the brakes work normally. Flowing or rushing water creates strong forces. Driving through flowing water could cause the vehicle to be carried away. If this happens, you and other (Continued) Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 184 Driving and Operating Warning (Continued) vehicle occupants could drown. Do not ignore police warnings and be very cautious about trying to drive through flowing water. Caution Driving through deep puddles or standing water can cause water to come in through the engine air intake and damage the engine. If deep puddles or standing water cannot be avoided, proceed with caution and do not exceed 8 km/h (5 mph). Do not drive through water that may come close to or cover the vehicle’s underbody. Hydroplaning Hydroplaning is dangerous. Water can build up under the vehicle's tires so they actually ride on the water. This can happen if the road is wet enough and you are going fast enough. When the vehicle is hydroplaning, it has little or no contact with the road. There is no hard and fast rule about hydroplaning. The best advice is to slow down when the road is wet. Other Rainy Weather Tips Besides slowing down, other wet weather driving tips include: . Allow extra following distance. . Pass with caution. . Keep windshield wiping equipment in good shape. . Keep the windshield washer fluid reservoir filled. . Have good tires with proper tread depth. See Tires 0 259. . Turn off cruise control. Hill and Mountain Roads Driving on steep hills or through mountains is different than driving on flat or rolling terrain. Tips include: . When driving downhill in D (Drive), the vehicle may automatically downshift to assist with speed control. . A lower gear may also be selected to provide further speed control. { Warning Using the brakes to slow the vehicle on a long downhill slope can cause brake overheating, can reduce brake performance, and could result in a loss of braking. Shift the transmission to a lower gear to let the engine assist the brakes on a steep downhill slope. { Warning Coasting downhill in N (Neutral) or with the ignition off is dangerous. This can cause overheating of the brakes and loss of steering assist. Always have the engine running and the vehicle in gear. . Drive at speeds that keep the vehicle in its own lane. Do not swing wide or cross the center line. . Be alert on top of hills; something could be in your lane (e.g., stalled car, crash). . Pay attention to special road signs (e.g., falling rocks area, winding roads, long grades, passing or no-passing zones) and take appropriate action. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Winter Driving Driving on Snow or Ice Caution To avoid damage to the wheels and brake components, always clear snow and ice from inside the wheels and underneath the vehicle before driving. Snow or ice between the tires and the road creates less traction or grip, so drive carefully. Wet ice can occur at about 0 °C (32 °F) when freezing rain begins to fall. Avoid driving on wet ice or in freezing rain until roads can be treated. For Slippery Road Driving: . Accelerate gently. Accelerating too quickly causes the wheels to spin and makes the surface under the tires slick. . Turn on Traction Control. See Traction Control/Electronic Stability Control 0 205. . The Antilock Brake System (ABS) improves vehicle stability during hard stops, but the brakes should be applied sooner than when on dry pavement. See Antilock Brake System (ABS) 0 202. . Allow greater following distance and watch for slippery spots. Icy patches can occur on otherwise clear roads in shaded areas. The surface of a curve or an overpass can remain icy when the surrounding roads are clear. Avoid sudden steering maneuvers and braking while on ice. . Turn off cruise control. . Turn on Weather Mode. See Driver Mode Control 0 206. Blizzard Conditions Stop the vehicle in a safe place and signal for help. Stay with the vehicle unless there is help nearby. If possible, use Roadside Assistance. See Roadside Assistance Program 0 310. To get help and keep everyone in the vehicle safe: . Turn on the hazard warning flashers. . Tie a red cloth to an outside mirror. { Warning Snow can trap engine exhaust under the vehicle. This may cause exhaust gases to get inside. Engine exhaust contains (Continued) 185 Warning (Continued) carbon monoxide (CO), which cannot be seen or smelled. It can cause unconsciousness and even death. If the vehicle is stuck in snow: . Clear snow from the base of the vehicle, especially any blocking the exhaust pipe. . Open a window about 5 cm (2 in) on the vehicle side that is away from the wind, to bring in fresh air. . Fully open the air outlets on or under the instrument panel. . Adjust the climate control system to circulate the air inside the vehicle and set the fan speed to the highest setting. See “Climate Control Systems.” For more information about CO, see Engine Exhaust 0 195. To save fuel, run the engine for short periods to warm the vehicle and then shut the engine off and partially close the window. Moving about to keep warm also helps. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 186 Driving and Operating If it takes time for help to arrive, when running the engine, push the accelerator pedal slightly so the engine runs faster than the idle speed. This keeps the battery charged to restart the vehicle and to signal for help with the headlamps. Do this as little as possible, to save fuel. If the Vehicle Is Stuck Slowly and cautiously spin the wheels to free the vehicle when stuck in sand, mud, ice, or snow. If stuck too severely for the traction system to free the vehicle, turn the traction system off and use the rocking method. See Traction Control/Electronic Stability Control 0 205. { Warning If the vehicle's tires spin at high speed, they can explode, and you or others could be injured. The vehicle can overheat, causing an engine compartment fire or other damage. Spin the wheels as little as possible and avoid going above 56 km/h (35 mph). Rocking the Vehicle to Get it Out Turn the steering wheel left and right to clear the area around the front wheels. Turn off any traction system. Shift back and forth between R (Reverse) and a low forward gear, spinning the wheels as little as possible. To prevent transmission wear, wait until the wheels stop spinning before shifting gears. Release the accelerator pedal while shifting, and press lightly on the accelerator pedal when the transmission is in gear. Slowly spinning the wheels in the forward and reverse directions causes a rocking motion that could free the vehicle. If that does not get the vehicle out after a few tries, it may need to be towed out. If the vehicle does need to be towed out, see Towing the Vehicle 0 279. Vehicle Load Limits It is very important to know how much weight the vehicle can carry. This weight is called the vehicle capacity weight and includes the weight of all occupants, cargo, and all nonfactory-installed options. Two labels on the vehicle may show how much weight it may properly carry: the Tire and Loading Information label and the Certification label. { Warning Do not load the vehicle any heavier than the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), or either the maximum front or rear Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). This can cause systems to break and change the way the vehicle handles. This could cause loss of control and a crash. Overloading can also reduce stopping performance, damage the tires, and shorten the life of the vehicle. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Tire and Loading Information Label pressures (4). For more information on tires and inflation see Tires 0 259 and Tire Pressure 0 265. There is also important loading information on the vehicle Certification label. It may show the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for the front and rear axle. See “Certification Label” later in this section. Label Example A vehicle-specific Tire and Loading Information label is attached to the center pillar (B-pillar). This label shows the number of occupant seating positions (1), and the maximum vehicle capacity weight (2) in kilograms and pounds. The Tire and Loading Information label also shows the size of the original equipment tires (3) and the recommended cold tire inflation Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit– 1. Locate the statement "The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs." on your vehicle’s placard. 2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle. 3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs. 187 4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity. For example, if the "XXX" amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.) 5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4. 6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle.” This vehicle is neither designed nor intended to tow a trailer. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 188 Driving and Operating Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 1. Vehicle Capacity Weight for Example 1 = 181 kg (400 lbs) 2. Subtract Occupant Weight @ 68 kg (150 lbs) × 1 = 68 kg (150 lbs) 3. Available Occupant and Cargo Weight = 113 kg (250 lbs) 1. Vehicle Capacity Weight for Example 2 = 181 kg (400 lbs) 2. Subtract Occupant Weight @ 68 kg (150 lbs) × 2 = 136 kg (300 lbs) 3. Available Cargo Weight = 45 kg (100 lbs) 1. Vehicle Capacity Weight for Example 3 = 181 kg (400 lbs) 2. Subtract Occupant Weight @ 91 kg (200 lbs) × 2 = 181 kg (400 lbs) 3. Available Cargo Weight = 0 kg (0 lbs) Refer to the vehicle's Tire and Loading Information label for specific information about the vehicle's capacity weight and seating positions. The combined weight of the driver, passengers and cargo should never exceed the vehicle's capacity weight. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Certification Label { Warning A vehicle-specific Certification label is attached to the rear edge of the driver door. It may show the gross weight capacity of the vehicle, called the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). The GVWR includes the weight of the vehicle, all occupants, fuel and cargo. Caution Overloading the vehicle may cause damage. Repairs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Do not overload the vehicle. Things you put inside your vehicle can strike and injure people in a sudden stop or turn, or in a crash. . Put things in the rear area of your vehicle. Try to spread the weight evenly. . Never stack heavier things, like suitcases, inside the vehicle so that some of them are above the tops of the seats. . Do not leave an unsecured child restraint in your vehicle. . When you carry something inside the vehicle, secure it whenever you can. Starting and Operating 189 During the first 800 km (500 mi), engine torque will be limited in low gears. For the first 322 km (200 mi): . To break in new tires, drive at moderate speeds and avoid hard cornering. . New brake linings also need a break-in period. Avoid making hard stops. This is recommended every time brake linings are replaced. For the first 800 km (500 mi): . Avoid full throttle starts and abrupt stops. . Do not exceed 4000 rpm. . Avoid driving at any one constant speed, fast or slow, including the use of cruise control. . Avoid downshifting to brake or slow the vehicle when the engine speed will exceed 4000 rpm. .

Driving under this condition can damage the vehicle. Stop and idle the engine to cool the transmission fluid. This message clears when the transmission fluid has cooled sufficiently. D : This position is for normal driving. If more power is needed for passing, press the accelerator pedal. If the vehicle is shifted into D (Drive) while the speed is too high, the transmission will get ready to engage D (Drive). Reduce the vehicle speed, then the transmission will engage D (Drive). To shift into D (Drive): 1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop. 2. Pull the D (Drive) switch on the center console. To shift out of D (Drive): 1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop. 2. Shift to the desired gear. Manual Mode Manual Paddle Shift Downshifting the transmission in slippery road conditions could result in skidding. See “Skidding” under Loss of Control 0 177. The transmission can be shifted like a manual transmission using the paddle shift controls while in D (Drive). See Manual Mode 0 198. Caution Spinning the tires or holding the vehicle in one place on a hill using only the accelerator pedal may damage the transmission. The repair will not be covered by the vehicle warranty. If the vehicle is stuck, do not spin the tires. When stopping on a hill, use the brakes to hold the vehicle in place. With the transmission in D (Drive), press the M (Manual Mode) switch on the center console to enter Manual Mode. Use the paddles on the steering wheel to manually upshift or downshift the transmission. The right + (plus) paddle upshifts, and the left − (minus) paddle downshifts. When using the Manual Paddle Shift feature, the current gear will be displayed in the instrument cluster or the Head-Up Display (HUD), if equipped. See Head-Up Display (HUD) 0 94. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating When accelerating the vehicle from a stop in snowy and icy conditions, shifting to 2 (Second) gear, when available, will allow the vehicle to gain more traction. The Manual Paddle Shift system can be deactivated by pulling the D (Drive) switch on the center console. With the transmission in D (Drive), pull the right + paddle or the left − paddle to place the transmission in Temporary Manual Paddle Shift mode. To exit Temporary Manual Paddle Shift mode do one of the following: . Hold the + paddle for more than one second. . Drive at a steady speed without manual shifts or aggressive cornering for more than seven seconds. . Bring the vehicle to a stop. 199 While the Manual Paddle Shift feature is active, the transmission will automatically downshift through the gears as the vehicle slows. The transmission will select 1 (First) gear as the vehicle stops. From a stop, the vehicle will start from and hold 1 (First) gear unless Manual Paddle Shifts are used to shift into a different gear, or D (Drive) is selected. When in Manual Paddle Shift mode, if upshifting does not occur when needed, vehicle speed will be limited to protect the engine. When in Temporary Manual Paddle Shift mode, the transmission will automatically upshift if the accelerator pedal is pressed all the way to the floor. To cause the transmission to downshift to the lowest gear possible for the vehicle speed, in Manual Paddle Shift or Temporary Manual Paddle Shift mode: . Pull and briefly hold the − paddle. If the paddle continues to be held as the vehicle slows, downshifts will continue as vehicle speed allows. The vehicle speeds required for Manual Paddle Shift upshifts depend on several vehicle inputs, which will vary the allowed upshift speed by a few km/h (mph). The Manual Paddle Shift system will not allow an upshift or a downshift if vehicle speed is too fast or too slow, nor will it allow a start from any gear other than 1 (First) gear. Manual Paddle Shift can be used with cruise control. See Cruise Control 0 216. To prevent damage to the powertrain, Manual Paddle downshifts to a lower gear cannot be done above certain speeds. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 200 Driving and Operating For vehicles with an Electronic Limited-Slip Differential (Z51) Upshift Allowed (into gear) 2nd At Approximately km/h mph 15 9 3rd 25 16 4th 36 22 5th 47 29 6th 60 37 7th 76 47 8th 92 57 Maximum Downshift Inhibit Speed (into gear) 1st At Approximately km/h mph 30 19 2nd 63 39 3rd 104 65 4th 164 102 5th 232 144 6th Aero Limited Aero Limited 7th Aero Limited Aero Limited Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Double Paddle Declutch For vehicles with an Mechanical Limited-Slip Differential (Without Z51) Upshift Allowed (into gear) At Approximately km/h mph 2nd 16 10 3rd 26 16 4th 37 23 5th 49 30 6th 63 39 7th 80 50 8th 97 60 Maximum Downshift Inhibit Speed (into gear) 1st 201 At Approximately km/h mph 30 19 2nd 63 39 3rd 113 70 4th 174 108 5th 245 152 6th Aero Limited Aero Limited 7th Aero Limited Aero Limited Double Paddle Declutch allows the vehicle to temporarily disconnect the engine from the wheels – similar to N (Neutral). This feature is activated by pulling and holding both the + paddle and − paddle at the same time while the vehicle is in R (Reverse), D (Drive), or M (Manual Mode). The vehicle will remain in this condition until both the + paddle and − paddle are released. The R, D, or M indicator on the center shift console will flash red to indicate that the vehicle is in Double Paddle Declutch. In addition, the current gear state indicator in the DIC may dim to gray to indicate that the vehicle is in Double Paddle Declutch. To exit Double Paddle Declutch, release both the + paddle and − paddle. The engine will reconnect to the wheels and the shift indicator will stop flashing. There are two Double Paddle Declutch exit styles: Rapid Exit : This is intended for use at a closed course race track and not on public roads. Engine power is reapplied to the wheels quickly to support spirited driving. The rate of launch is dependent on how much the accelerator pedal is pressed when the paddles are released: The further the accelerator pedal is pressed, the greater the Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 202 Driving and Operating rate of launch. Tire spin may occur with the accelerator pedal pressed and the Traction Control System (TCS) turned off. This launch occurs when both of these conditions are met: . Vehicle speed is below 10 km/h (6 mph). . Both the + paddle and − paddle are released at the same time. With the accelerator fully pressed and the engine at the rev limiter, peak performance only occurs if the paddles are released within a short period of time after reaching the rev limit (i.e., a few seconds). Applying the brakes while the tires are spinning may result in the clutch releasing. If the vehicle was in Temporary Manual Paddle Shift mode before entering Double Paddle Declutch, the vehicle will return to D (Drive) with automatic shifting upon exiting Double Paddle Declutch. { Warning When exiting Double Paddle Declutch, the vehicle may move rapidly. You could lose control and cause a crash with nearby people or objects. Be ready to release the accelerator pedal or apply the brakes immediately if the vehicle moves too quickly. Do not use the Double Paddle Declutch when people or objects are near. Standard Exit : Engine power is reapplied to the wheels gently to support normal vehicle operation on public roads. Brakes This occurs when paddles are released under any of the these conditions: . Vehicle speed is above 10 km/h (6 mph). . The vehicle is in R (Reverse). . The + paddle and − paddle are not released at the same time. Vehicles equipped with electric brake boost have hydraulic brake circuits that are electronically controlled when the brake pedal is applied during normal operation. The system performs routine tests and turns off within a few minutes after the vehicle is turned off. Noise may be heard during this time. If the brake pedal is pressed during Electric Brake Boost the tests or when the electric brake boost system is off, a noticeable change in pedal force and travel may be felt. This is normal. Antilock Brake System (ABS) The Antilock Brake System (ABS) helps prevent a braking skid and maintain steering while braking hard. If there is a problem with ABS, this warning light stays on. See Antilock Brake System (ABS) Warning Light 0 89. ABS does not change the time needed to get a foot on the brake pedal and does not always decrease stopping distance. If you get too close to the vehicle ahead, there will not be enough time to apply the brakes if that vehicle suddenly slows or stops. Always leave enough room ahead to stop, even with ABS. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Using ABS Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the brake pedal down firmly. Hearing and feeling ABS operate is normal. Braking in Emergencies ABS allows steering and braking at the same time. In many emergencies, steering can help even more than braking. Electric Parking Brake cannot be applied or released. To prevent draining the battery, avoid unnecessary repeated cycles of the EPB. have the vehicle serviced. Do not drive the vehicle if the red parking brake status light is flashing. See your dealer. The system has a red parking brake status light and an amber service parking brake warning light. See Electric Parking Brake Light 0 89 and Service Electric Parking Brake Light 0 89. There are also parking brake-related Driver Information Center (DIC) messages. If the amber service parking brake warning light is on, press the EPB switch. Continue to hold the switch until the red parking brake status light remains on. If the amber service parking brake warning light is on, see your dealer. Before leaving the vehicle, check the red parking brake status light to ensure that the parking brake is applied. EPB Apply To apply the EPB: 1. Be sure the vehicle is at a complete stop. 2. Press the EPB switch momentarily. The Electric Parking Brake (EPB) can always be applied, even if the vehicle is off. In case of insufficient electrical power, the EPB 203 The red parking brake status light will flash and then stay on once the EPB is fully applied. If the red parking brake status light flashes continuously, then the EPB is only partially applied or there is a problem with the EPB. A DIC message will display. Release the EPB and try to apply it again. If the light does not come on, or keeps flashing, If the EPB is applied while the vehicle is moving, the vehicle will decelerate as long as the switch is pressed. If the switch is pressed until the vehicle comes to a stop, the EPB will remain applied. The vehicle may automatically apply the EPB in some situations when the vehicle is not moving. This is normal, and is done to periodically check the correct operation of the EPB system, or at the request of other safety functions that utilize the EPB. If the EPB fails to apply, block the rear wheels to prevent vehicle movement. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 204 Driving and Operating EPB Release Automatic EPB Release To release the EPB: 1. Turn the ignition on or to ACC/ ACCESSORY. 2. Apply and hold the brake pedal. 3. Press the EPB switch momentarily. The EPB will automatically release if the vehicle is running, placed into gear, and an attempt is made to drive away. Avoid rapid acceleration when the EPB is applied, to preserve parking brake lining life. The EPB is released when the red parking brake status light is off. If the amber service parking brake warning light is on, release the EPB by pressing and holding the EPB switch. Continue to hold the switch until the red parking brake status light is off. If either light stays on after release is attempted, see your dealer. Caution Driving with the parking brake on can overheat the brake system and cause premature wear or damage to brake system parts. Make sure that the parking brake is fully released and the brake warning light is off before driving. Brake Assist Brake Assist detects rapid brake pedal applications due to emergency braking situations and provides additional braking to activate the Antilock Brake System (ABS) if the brake pedal is not pushed hard enough to activate ABS normally. Minor noise, brake pedal pulsation, and/or pedal movement during this time may occur. Continue to apply the brake pedal as the driving situation dictates. Brake Assist disengages when the brake pedal is released. Hill Start Assist (HSA) { Warning Do not rely on the HSA feature. HSA does not replace the need to pay attention and drive safely. You may not hear or feel alerts or warnings provided by this system. Failure to use proper care when (Continued) Warning (Continued) driving may result in injury, death, or vehicle damage. See Defensive Driving 0 175. When the vehicle is stopped on a grade, Hill Start Assist (HSA) prevents the vehicle from rolling in an unintended direction during the transition from brake pedal release to accelerator pedal apply. The brakes release when the accelerator pedal is applied. If the accelerator pedal is not applied within a few minutes, the Electric Parking Brake will apply. The brakes may also release under other conditions. Do not rely on HSA to hold the vehicle. HSA is available when the vehicle is facing uphill in a forward gear, or when facing downhill in R (Reverse). The vehicle must come to a complete stop on a grade for HSA to activate. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Ride Control Systems Traction Control/Electronic Stability Control The vehicle has a Traction Control System (TCS) and a StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. These systems help limit wheel spin and assist the driver in maintaining control, especially on slippery road conditions. TCS activates if it senses that the rear wheels are spinning too much or are beginning to lose traction. When this happens, TCS applies the brakes to the spinning wheel and reduces engine power (by closing the throttle and managing engine spark) to limit wheel spin. StabiliTrak/ESC activates when the vehicle senses a difference between the intended path and the direction the vehicle is actually traveling. StabiliTrak/ESC selectively applies braking pressure to any one of the vehicle wheel brakes to assist the driver in keeping the vehicle on the intended path. 205 If cruise control is being used when TCS begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise control will automatically disengage. Cruise control may be reengaged when road conditions allow. See Cruise Control 0 216. If the driver disables TCS, cruise control will disengage. Cruise control will also be disabled if Performance Traction Management (PTM) is selected, or if StabiliTrak is turned off. Both systems come on automatically when the vehicle is started and begins to move. The systems may be heard or felt while they are operating or while performing diagnostic checks. This is normal and does not mean there is a problem with the vehicle. It is recommended to leave both systems on for normal driving conditions, but it may be necessary to turn TCS off if the vehicle gets stuck in sand, mud, ice, or snow. See If the Vehicle Is Stuck 0 186 and “Turning the Systems Off and On” later in this section. The indicator light for both systems is in the instrument cluster. This light will: . Flash when TCS is limiting wheel spin . Flash when StabiliTrak/ESC is activated . Flash when ABS is active . Turn on and stay on when either system is not working If either system fails to turn on or to activate, a message displays in the Driver Information Center (DIC), and = comes on and stays on to indicate that the system is inactive and is not assisting the driver in maintaining control. The vehicle is safe to drive, but driving should be adjusted accordingly. If = comes on and stays on: 1. Stop the vehicle. 2. Turn the engine off and wait 15 seconds. 3. Start the engine. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 206 Driving and Operating Drive the vehicle.

To turn TCS and StabiliTrak/ESC on again, press and release @. The Traction Off light i and StabiliTrak/ESC OFF light @ in the instrument cluster turn off. If the Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) system is malfunctioning and the DIC displays SERVICE TIRE MONITOR SYSTEM, StabiliTrak/ESC will be affected as follows: . StabiliTrak/ESC cannot be turned off by the driver. . If StabiliTrak/ESC is off, it will be turned on automatically. . Competitive Driving Mode or Performance Traction Management is unavailable. . StabiliTrak/ESC will feel different in aiding and maintaining directional control. Adding accessories can affect the vehicle performance. See Accessories and Modifications 0 229. Hill Rollback Control If the vehicle is in gear and inadvertently rolls backwards, Hill Rollback Control helps limit the rollback to a very low speed. A noise may be heard while the vehicle speed is actively being controlled. A Driver Information Center (DIC) message displays when active. Driver Mode Control Driver Mode Control (DMC) allows the driver to adjust the overall driving experience to better suit preference by selecting different modes. Drive mode availability and affected driver systems are dependent upon vehicle trim level, region, and optional features.

This is accomplished by regulating and optimizing the engine, brakes, and suspension performance. These modes are for use at a closed course race track and are not intended for use on public roads. They will not compensate for driver inexperience or lack of familiarity with a race track. Drivers who prefer to allow the system to have more control of the engine, brakes, and suspension are advised to turn the normal traction control and StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) systems on. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 214 Driving and Operating Competitive Driving Mode Competitive Driving Mode allows full engine power while StabiliTrak/ESC helps maintain directional control of the vehicle by selective brake application. In this mode, the TCS is off and Launch Control is available. Adjust your driving style to account for the available engine power. See “Launch Control” later in this section. Then quickly press @ on the center console two times. ESC COMPETITIVE MODE displays in the Driver Information Center (DIC). When @ is pressed again, the traction off light i and StabiliTrak/ESC OFF light @ will go out. Performance Traction Management (PTM) (If Equipped) PTM integrates the TCS, StabiliTrak/ESC, and Magnetic Ride Control systems to provide improved and consistent performance when cornering. The amount of available engine power is based on the mode selected, track conditions, driver skill, and the radius of each corner. To experience the performance benefit of this system, after entering a curve and at the point where normal acceleration occurs, fully press the accelerator pedal. The PTM system modifies the level of engine power for a smooth and consistent corner exit. The PTM system contains five modes. These modes are selected by turning the MODE switch on the center console. Scroll through modes by turning the mode control dial. The following is a DIC display description and the recommended usage of each mode: Performance Traction – Wet . Intended for all driver skill levels. . Wet or damp conditions only — not intended for use in heavy rain or standing water. . StabiliTrak/ESC is on and engine power is reduced based on conditions. Performance Traction – Dry These lights are on when the vehicle is in the Competitive Driving Mode. To select this optional handling mode, the vehicle mode must be Sport or Track (if equipped with PTM, then Competitive Driving Mode is only available in Sport). .

Press and release @ to turn off PTM and return to the TCS and StabiliTrak/ESC systems. The traction off light i and StabiliTrak Off light @ will go out. Launch Control (Sport and Track Mode Only) A Launch Control feature is available, within Competitive Driving Mode or PTM, on all vehicles to allow the driver to achieve high levels of vehicle acceleration in a straight line. Launch Control is a form of TCS that manages tire spin, and transmissions clutch, while launching the vehicle. This feature is intended for use during closed course race events where consistent zero to 60 and quarter mile times are desirable. Launch Control is only available when the following criteria are met: . Competitive Driving Mode or any of the PTM Modes are selected (if equipped). . The vehicle is not moving. . The wheels and steering wheel are pointing straight. Launching the Vehicle . Ensure the vehicle is in Competitive Driving Mode or any of the PTM modes. 215 . The brake pedal must be firmly pressed to the floor, equivalent to a panic brake event. . While maintaining the brake pedal, the accelerator pedal is rapidly applied to wide open throttle. (If the vehicle rolls due to wide open throttle, release the throttle, press the brake pedal more firmly, and reapply the accelerator to wide open throttle.) The Launch Control feature will initially limit engine speed as the driver rapidly applies the accelerator pedal to wide open throttle. Allow the engine RPMs to stabilize. A smooth, quick release of the brake pedal, while maintaining the fully pressed accelerator pedal, will manage tire slip and transmissions clutch. After the vehicle is launched, the system continues in Competitive Driving Mode or PTM. Caution The new vehicle break-in period should be completed before using the launch control feature, otherwise performance will be limited and damage may occur to the powertrain/engine. See New Vehicle Break-In 0 189. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 216 Driving and Operating Limited-Slip Differential (Without Z51) The mechanical limited-slip differential can give more traction on snow, mud, ice, sand, or gravel. It works like a standard axle most of the time, but when traction is low, this feature allows the drive wheel with the most traction to move the vehicle. See Competitive Driving Mode 0 213 and Maintenance Schedule 0 292. Limited-Slip Differential (With Z51) The Electronic Limited-Slip Differential (eLSD) is a hydraulically actuated clutch system inside the transaxle. It can infinitely vary the clutch engagement between 0 and 2250 N*m (1659 lb-ft) of breakaway torque between the rear wheels. When necessary it responds from open to full engagement in fractions of a second. Smaller clutch adjustments happen even faster. The eLSD: . Uses the vehicle sensors and driver inputs to determine the optimum amount of clutch engagement for the conditions. . Improves traction while cornering by changing the engagement to achieve a balance between directional control and acceleration. . Provides optimal engagement for high-speed control and stability without affecting precise steering and turn-in. . Improves vehicle stability during spirited driving and evasive maneuvers. It is fully integrated with the Active Handling and Performance Traction Management (PTM) systems (if equipped). . Mode 2 is engaged when both TCS and There are unique calibrations based on the Traction Control System (TCS) setting. eLSD modes change automatically when the traction control button is pressed. No unique input from the driver is required. . Mode 1 is the standard mode when the vehicle is started. It provides a touring calibration with an emphasis on vehicle stability. Mode 1 is also used in PTM Wet mode. With cruise control, a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph) or more can be maintained without keeping your foot on the accelerator. Cruise control does not work at speeds below about 40 km/h (25 mph). StabiliTrak are turned off. This calibration provides more nimble corner turn-in, and is biased for better traction out of corners. . Mode 3 is engaged when PTM is engaged in Dry, Sport 1 & 2, and Race modes. This is a nimble calibration with similar functionality as eLSD Mode 2, however, it is integrated to work with PTM. . Mode 4 is engaged when TCS is selected off, but StabiliTrak remains on. Vehicle stability is still the priority, while allowing for optimized traction out of corners. Cruise Control Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating The speedometer reading can be displayed in either English or metric units. See Instrument Cluster 0 80. The increment value used depends on the units displayed. { Warning Cruise control can be dangerous where you cannot drive safely at a steady speed. Do not use cruise control on winding roads or in heavy traffic. Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can cause excessive wheel slip, and you could lose control. Do not use cruise control on slippery roads. Setting Cruise Control If 1 is on when not in use, SET– or +RES could get pressed and go into cruise when not desired. Keep 1 off when cruise is not being used. 1 : Press to turn cruise control on or off. If the Traction Control System (TCS) begins to limit wheel spin while you are using cruise control, the cruise control automatically disengages. See Traction Control/Electronic Stability Control 0 205. When road conditions allow for using safely again, cruise control can be turned back on. A white indicator comes on in the instrument cluster when cruise is turned on. If the brakes are applied, cruise control disengages. SET– : Press briefly to set the speed and activate cruise control. If cruise control is already engaged, use to decrease vehicle speed. Cruise control will disengage if either TCS or StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is turned off. 217 +RES : If there is a set speed in memory, press briefly to resume to that speed or press and hold to accelerate. If cruise control is already engaged, use to increase vehicle speed. * : Press to disengage cruise control without erasing the set speed from memory. 1. Press 1 to turn the cruise system on. 2. Get up to the desired speed. 3. Press and release SET– on the steering wheel. 4. Remove foot from the accelerator. The cruise control indicator on the instrument cluster turns green after cruise control has been set to the desired speed. See Instrument Cluster 0 80. Resuming a Set Speed If the cruise control is set at a desired speed and then the brakes are applied or * is pressed, the cruise control is disengaged without erasing the set speed from memory. Once the vehicle reaches about 40 km/h (25 mph) or more, briefly press +RES. The vehicle returns to the previous set speed. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 218 Driving and Operating Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control Using Cruise Control on Hills Do one of the following: . Press and hold +RES until the desired speed is reached, then release it. . To increase vehicle speed in small increments, briefly press +RES. For each press, the vehicle goes about 1 km/h (1 mph) faster. How well the cruise control works on hills depends upon the vehicle 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. If the brake pedal is applied, cruise control will disengage. Reducing Speed While Using Cruise Control Do one of the following: . Press and hold SET– until the desired lower speed is reached, then release it. . To decrease the vehicle speed in small increments, briefly press SET–. For each press, the vehicle goes about 1 km/h (1 mph) slower. Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control Use the accelerator pedal to increase the vehicle speed. When you take your foot off the pedal, the vehicle will slow down to the previously set cruise speed. While pressing the accelerator pedal or shortly following the release to override cruise control, briefly pressing SET– will result in cruise set to the current vehicle speed. Cruise Control in Manual Paddle Shift Gear Selection When the vehicle is in M (Manual Mode) and the manual paddle shift controls are not being used, cruise control operates in the same manner as D (Drive). When the vehicle is in M (Manual Mode) and the manual paddle shift controls are being used, cruise control operates as follows: . If cruise control is active and a gear is selected with the manual paddle shift controls, the vehicle speed is maintained in the driver selected gear and will not automatically upshift or downshift the transmission while the driver’s gear selection is active. . If driving in hilly terrain, cruise control may not be able to maintain vehicle speed if an upshift or downshift is not selected by the driver. While driving on hilly terrain and cruise control is active with a manual paddle shift gear selection, the driver must select the proper gear for the terrain or select D (Drive) on the shifter for full automatic transmission operation. Ending Cruise Control . Step lightly on the brake pedal. . Shift the transmission to N (Neutral). . Press *. . To turn off cruise control, press 1. Erasing Speed Memory The cruise control set speed is erased from memory if 1 is pressed or if the ignition is turned off.

When an object is detected, three beeps sound from the left or right, depending on the direction of the detected vehicle. With RPA, as the vehicle backs up at speeds of less than 8 km/h (5 mph), the sensors on the rear bumper may detect objects up to 2.5 m (8 ft) behind the vehicle within a zone 25 cm (10 in) high off the ground and below bumper level. These detection distances may be shorter during warmer or humid weather. Blocked sensors will not detect objects and can also cause false detections. Keep the sensors clean of mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush; and clean sensors after a car wash in freezing temperatures. { Warning The Park Assist system does not detect children, pedestrians, bicyclists, animals, or objects located below the bumper or that are too close or too far from the vehicle. It is not available at speeds greater than 8 km/h (5 mph). To prevent injury, death, or vehicle damage, even with Park Assist, always check the area around the vehicle and check all mirrors before moving forward or backing. RCTA can be turned on or off through vehicle personalization. See “Collision/ Detection Systems" under Vehicle Personalization. See Vehicle Personalization 0 98. The instrument cluster may have a Park Assist display with bars that show “distance to object” and object location information for RPA. As the object gets closer, more bars light up and the bars change color from yellow to amber to red. When an object is first detected in the rear, one beep will be heard from the rear. When an object is very close (<0.6 m (2 ft) in the vehicle rear), five beeps will sound from the rear. Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) System If equipped, RCTA displays a red warning triangle with a left or right pointing arrow on the RVC screen to warn of traffic coming from the left or right. This system detects objects coming from up to 20 m (65 ft) from the left or right side of the rear of the Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA) If equipped, the Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA) system is a lane-changing aid that assists drivers with avoiding crashes that occur with moving vehicles in the side blind zone, or blind spot areas. The SBZA warning display will light up in the corresponding outside side mirror and will flash if the turn signal in corresponding side is on. { Warning SBZA does not alert the driver to vehicles rapidly approaching outside of the side blind zones, pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals. It may not provide alerts when changing lanes under all driving conditions. Failure to use proper care when changing lanes may result in injury, (Continued) Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Driving and Operating Warning (Continued) death, or vehicle damage. Before making a lane change, always check mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and use the turn signals. SBZA Detection Zones How the System Works The SBZA symbol lights up in the side mirrors when the system detects a moving vehicle in the next lane over that is in the side blind zone. This indicates it may be unsafe to change lanes. Before making a lane change, check the SBZA display, check mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and use the turn signals. Left Side Mirror Display The SBZA sensor covers a zone approximately one lane over from both sides of the vehicle, or approximately 3.5 m (11 ft). The height of the zone is approximately between 0.5 m (1.5 ft) and 2 m (6 ft) off the ground. This zone starts at approximately the middle of the vehicle and goes back 5 m (16 ft). Right Side Mirror Display When the vehicle is started, both outside mirror SBZA displays will briefly come on to indicate the system is operating. When the vehicle is in a forward gear, the left- or right-side mirror display will light up if a moving vehicle is detected in that blind zone. If the turn signal is activated in the same direction as a detected vehicle, this display will flash as an extra warning not to change lanes. 223 SBZA can be disabled through vehicle personalization. See “Collision/Detection Systems” under Vehicle Personalization 0 98. If SBZA is disabled by the driver, the SBZA mirror displays will not light up. When the System Does Not Seem to Work Properly SBZA displays may not come on when passing a vehicle quickly, for a stopped vehicle. SBZA may alert to objects attached to the vehicle, such as a bicycle, or object extending out to either side of the vehicle. This is normal system operation; the vehicle does not need service. SBZA may not always alert the driver to vehicles in the side blind zone, especially in wet conditions. The system does not need to be serviced. The system may light up due to guardrails, signs, trees, shrubs, and other non-moving objects. This is normal system operation; the vehicle does not need service. SBZA may not operate when the SBZA sensors in the left or right corners of the rear bumper are covered with mud, dirt, snow, ice, or slush, or in heavy rainstorms.

Engine Oil To ensure proper engine performance and long life, pay careful attention to engine oil. Follow these important steps: . Use engine oil approved to the proper specification and of the proper viscosity grade. See “Selecting the Right Engine Oil” later in this section. . Check the engine oil level regularly and maintain the proper oil level. See “Checking Engine Oil” and “When to Add Engine Oil” later in this section. . Change the engine oil at the appropriate time. See Engine Oil Life System 0 238. . Always dispose of engine oil properly. See “What to Do with Used Oil” in this section. Checking the Engine Oil 1. Engine Oil Dipstick 2. Engine Oil Fill Cap Check the engine oil level regularly, every 650 km (400 mi), especially prior to a long trip. To get an accurate reading, the vehicle must be parked on a level ground. The engine oil dipstick handle is a loop. See Engine Compartment Overview 0 232 for the location. The vehicle has a racetrack-ready dry sump engine lubrication system. This high performance system operates differently than a standard engine lubrication system and requires a special procedure when checking the engine oil level. Follow this procedure closely. 235 The engine oil level must be checked when the engine is warm. Cold oil level in the dry sump tank may not indicate the actual amount of oil in the system. Engine oil is contained in an external tank, separate from the engine. Under normal operating conditions, the oil pan under the engine does not store any oil. If the vehicle has been parked for an extended period without the engine being started, some oil will seep back into the oil pan. This will reduce the amount of oil held in the dry sump tank and there could be no engine oil on the dipstick. This is normal since the dipstick is designed to read the engine oil level only after the engine has run long enough to reach normal operating temperature. Do not add engine oil based on cold engine dipstick readings. The engine oil level on the dipstick must be checked while the engine is running at idle. To check the engine oil: 1. Turn the engine on and let it warm up to at least 80 °C (175 °F). 2. Once the engine is warm, check the oil while the engine is running at idle. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 236 Vehicle Care { Warning The engine oil dipstick handle may be hot; it could burn you. Use a towel or glove to touch the dipstick handle. 3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean lint-free paper towel or a cloth. Re-insert the dipstick and push it all the way in until it stops. 4. Remove the dipstick again and read the level on the cross-hatched area. Re-insert the dipstick and push it all the way in until it stops. 5. Turn the engine off. When to Add Engine Oil of oil to use. For engine oil crankcase capacity, see Capacities and Specifications 0 304. Caution Do not add too much oil. Oil levels above or below the acceptable operating range shown on the dipstick are harmful to the engine. If the oil level is above the operating range (i.e., the engine has so much oil that the oil level gets above the cross-hatched area that shows the proper operating range), the engine could be damaged. Drain the excess oil or limit driving of the vehicle, and seek a service professional to remove the excess oil. See Engine Compartment Overview 0 232 for the location of the external engine oil tank dipstick and fill cap. If the oil is below the cross-hatched area at the tip of the dipstick, add 1 L (1 qt) of the recommended oil through the oil fill cap opening in the oil tank fill tube and then recheck the level. See “Selecting the Right Engine Oil” later in this section for the type Add enough oil to put the level somewhere in the proper operating range. Push the dipstick all the way back into the oil tank tube when finished. Changing the Engine Oil and Filter The vehicle requires a special procedure when changing the engine oil and filter. Follow this procedure closely. 1. Engine Oil Drain Plug 2. O-ring Seal 3. Engine Oil Filter To change the engine oil and filter: 1. Run the engine at idle for about 20 seconds to return all of the oil back into the dry sump oil tank. 2. Turn the engine off prior to draining the oil. 3. Remove the engine oil drain plug from the bottom of the engine oil pan. Drain plug removal will let the oil drain from the external oil tank and residual oil from the crankcase sump. Allow the oil to drain. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care 4. Remove the engine oil filter and allow the oil to drain. 5. Inspect the drain plug O-ring seal and replace if it is damaged. Reinstall the drain plug into the oil pan and tighten it to 25 N.m (18 lb ft). 6. Replace the oil filter and tighten it three-quarters to one turn after the gasket makes contact. See Maintenance Replacement Parts 0 300 for the correct filter. 7. Remove the oil fill cap from the external engine oil tank. Add oil to the oil tank through the opening in the fill tube. See Capacities and Specifications 0 304. 8. Install the oil fill cap and insert the dipstick, if removed. { Warning To help avoid personal injury and/or engine damage, always install the engine oil dipstick and oil fill cap until fully seated to a stop. If not fully seated, oil could escape on to hot exhaust parts and cause a fire. 9. Start the engine and check the oil level as described under "Checking the Engine Oil." previously in this section. Selecting the Right Engine Oil Selecting the right engine oil depends on both the proper oil specification and the viscosity grade. See Recommended Fluids and Lubricants 0 300. Specification Use engine oils that meet the dexos2 specification. 237 Caution Failure to use the recommended engine oil or equivalent can result in engine damage not covered by the vehicle warranty. Viscosity Grade Use SAE 0W-40 viscosity grade engine oil. When selecting an oil of the appropriate viscosity grade, it is recommended to select an oil of the correct specification. See “Specification” previously in this section. Engine Oil Additives/Engine Oil Flushes Do not add anything to the oil. The recommended oils meeting the dexos2 specification are all that is needed for good performance and engine protection. Engine oils that have been approved by GM as meeting the dexos2 specification are marked with the dexos2 approved logo. See www.gmdexos.com. Engine oil system flushes are not recommended and could cause engine damage not covered by the vehicle warranty. GM recommends Mobil 1 engine oils that show the dexos2 approved logo. What to Do with Used Oil Used engine oil contains certain elements that can be unhealthy for your skin and could even cause cancer. Do not let used oil stay on your skin for very long. Clean your Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 238 Vehicle Care skin and nails with soap and water, or a good hand cleaner. Wash or properly dispose of clothing or rags containing used engine oil. See the manufacturer's warnings about the use and disposal of oil products. Used oil can be a threat to the environment. If you change your own oil, drain all the oil from the filter before disposal. Never dispose of oil by putting it in the trash or pouring it on the ground, into sewers, or into streams or bodies of water. Recycle it by taking it to a place that collects used oil. Engine Oil Life System When to Change Engine Oil This vehicle has a computer that indicates when to change the engine oil and filter. This is based on a combination of factors which include engine revolutions, engine temperature, and miles driven. Based on driving conditions, the mileage at which an oil change is indicated can vary considerably. For the oil life system to work properly, the system must be reset every time the oil is changed. This vehicle has a racetrack-ready dry sump engine lubrication system. This high performance system operates differently than a standard engine lubrication system and requires a special procedure when changing the engine oil and filter. See Engine Oil 0 235. When the system has calculated that oil life has been diminished, it indicates that an oil change is necessary. A CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message comes on. Change the oil as soon as possible within the next 1 000 km (600 mi). It is possible that, if driving under the best conditions, the oil life system may not indicate that an oil change is necessary for up to a year. The engine oil and filter must be changed at least once a year and, at this time, the system must be reset. Your dealer has trained service people who will perform this work and reset the system. It is also important to check the oil regularly over the course of an oil drain interval and keep it at the proper level. If the system is ever reset accidentally, the oil must be changed at 5 000 km (3,000 mi) since the last oil change. Remember to reset the oil life system whenever the oil is changed. How to Reset the Engine Oil Life System Reset the system whenever the engine oil is changed so that the system can calculate the next engine oil change. To reset the system: 1.

The fluid requires changing at certain intervals. See Maintenance Schedule 0 292. The following explains the cooling system and how to check and add coolant when it is low. If there is a problem with engine overheating, see Engine Overheating 0 245. What to Use { Warning Plain water, or other liquids such as alcohol, can boil before the proper coolant mixture will. With plain water or (Continued) Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care Warning (Continued) the wrong mixture, the engine could get too hot but there would not be an overheat warning. The engine could catch fire and you or others could be burned. Use a mixture of 40% DEX-COOL coolant and 60% clean, drinkable water. If using this mixture, nothing else needs to be added. This mixture: . Gives freezing protection down to −28 °C (−18 °F), outside temperature. . Gives boiling protection up to 129 °C (265 °F), engine temperature. . Protects against rust and corrosion. . Will not damage aluminum parts. . Helps keep the proper engine temperature. Caution Do not use anything other than a mix of DEX-COOL coolant that meets GM Standard GMW3420 and clean, drinkable water. Anything else can cause damage to the engine cooling system and the vehicle, which would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Never dispose of engine coolant by putting it in the trash, pouring it on the ground, or into sewers, streams, or bodies of water. Have the coolant changed by an authorized service center, familiar with legal requirements regarding used coolant disposal. This will help protect the environment and your health. 243 The surge tank is in the engine compartment. See Engine Compartment Overview 0 232. If ambient temperatures are anticipated below −28 °C (−18 °F), make sure a proper mixture ratio of 50% DEX-COOL coolant and 50% clean, drinkable water is used. Checking Coolant Be sure the cooling system is cool and that the vehicle is on a level surface. Check to see if coolant is visible in the coolant surge tank. If the coolant inside the coolant surge tank is boiling, do not do anything else until it cools down. If coolant is visible but the coolant level is not at or above the cold fill line, add a mixture of 40% DEX-COOL coolant and 60% clean, drinkable water at the coolant recovery tank, but be sure the cooling system is cool before this is done. See Engine Overheating 0 245. When the engine is cold, the coolant level should be at the COLD FILL indicator in the coolant surge tank. When the engine is hot, the level could be higher than the COLD FILL indicator. If the coolant is below the COLD FILL indicator when the engine is hot, there could be a leak in the cooling system. If the coolant is low, add the coolant or take the vehicle to your dealer for service. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 244 Vehicle Care How to Add Coolant to the Coolant Surge Tank 1. Open the Hatch/Trunk. See Hatch (Trunk) 0 19. { Warning Spilling coolant on hot engine parts can burn you. Coolant contains ethylene glycol and it will burn if the engine parts are hot enough. { Warning Steam and scalding liquids from a hot cooling system are under pressure. Turning the pressure cap, even a little, can cause them to come out at high speed and you could be burned. Never turn the cap when the cooling system, including the pressure cap, is hot. Wait for the cooling system and pressure cap to cool. If coolant is needed, be sure the cooling system is cool, then add the proper DEX-COOL coolant mixture directly to the surge tank. 2. When the cooling system, including the coolant surge tank pressure cap and engine, is no longer hot, remove the pressure cap. Turn the pressure cap slowly counterclockwise about one-quarter turn and then stop. If a hiss is heard, wait for that to stop. A hiss means there is still some pressure left. 3. Keep turning the pressure cap slowly, and remove it. 4. Fill the coolant surge tank with the proper mixture until the level inside stabilizes at the COLD FILL indicator in the surge tank. 5. With the coolant surge tank pressure cap off, start the engine and let it run until the engine is hot. By this time, the coolant level inside the coolant surge tank may be lower. If the level is lower, add more of the proper mixture to the coolant surge tank until the level stabilizes at the COLD FILL indicator in the coolant surge tank. 6. Replace the pressure cap tightly. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care 7. Verify coolant level after the engine is shut off and the coolant is cold. If necessary, repeat coolant fill procedure Steps 3−7. If the coolant still is not at the proper level when the system cools down again, see your dealer. Caution If the pressure cap is not tightly installed, coolant loss and engine damage may occur. Be sure the cap is properly and tightly secured. Engine Overheating The vehicle has several indicators to warn of engine overheating. There is an engine coolant temperature gauge on the instrument cluster. See Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge 0 84. The vehicle may also display a message on the Driver Information Center (DIC). If the decision is made not to lift the hatch but to get service help right away, see Roadside Assistance Program 0 310. If the decision is made to lift the hatch, make sure the vehicle is parked on a level surface. Then check to see if the engine cooling fans are running. There are two cooling fans located in the front (one at each corner) and two cooling fans in the rear (one on each side of the engine). If the engine is overheating, the fans should be running. If they are not, do not continue to run the engine, and have the vehicle serviced. Caution Do not run the engine if there is a leak in the engine cooling system. This can cause a loss of all coolant and can damage the system and vehicle. Have any leaks fixed right away. If Steam Is Coming from the Engine { Warning Steam and scalding liquids from a hot cooling system are under pressure. Turning the pressure cap, even a little, can cause them to come out at high speed and you could be burned. Never turn the cap when the cooling system, including the pressure cap, is hot. Wait for the cooling system and pressure cap to cool. 245 If Steam Is Coming from the Engine Compartment with no Overheat Warning Water from rain and car washes could enter the engine compartment and contact hot surfaces. If steam is coming from the engine compartment with no accompanying overheat warning, no service is needed. If No Steam Is Coming from the Engine If an engine overheat warning is displayed but no steam can be seen or heard, the problem may not be too serious. Sometimes the engine can get a little too hot when the vehicle: . Climbs a long hill on a hot day. . Stops after high-speed driving. . Idles for long periods in traffic. If the overheat warning is displayed with no sign of steam: 1. Turn the air conditioning off. 2. Turn the heater on to the highest temperature and to the highest fan speed. Open the windows as necessary. 3. When it is safe to do so, pull off the road, shift to P (Park) or N (Neutral), and let the engine idle. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 246 Vehicle Care If the engine coolant temperature gauge is no longer in the shaded area or an overheat warning no longer displays, the vehicle can be driven. Continue to drive the vehicle slowly for about 10 minutes. Keep a safe vehicle distance from the vehicle in front. If the warning does not come back on, continue to drive normally and have the cooling system checked for proper fill and function. If the warning continues, pull over safely, and park the vehicle right away. If there is no sign of steam, idle the engine for three minutes while parked. If the warning is still displayed, turn off the engine until it cools down. Washer Fluid What to Use When the vehicle needs windshield washer fluid, be sure to read the manufacturer instructions before use. If the vehicle will be operating in an area where the temperature may fall below freezing, use a fluid that has sufficient protection against freezing. Adding Washer Fluid 1. Open the hood. See Hood 0 17. 2. Open the cap with the washer symbol on it. Add washer fluid until the tank is full. Caution . Do not use washer fluid that contains any type of water repellent coating. This can cause the wiper blades to chatter or skip. . Do not use engine coolant (antifreeze) in the windshield washer. It can damage the windshield washer system and paint. . Do not mix water with ready-to-use washer fluid. Water can cause the solution to freeze and damage the washer fluid tank and other parts of the washer system. (Continued) Caution (Continued) . When using concentrated washer fluid, follow the manufacturer instructions for adding water. . Fill the washer fluid tank only three-quarters full when it is very cold. This allows for fluid expansion if freezing occurs, which could damage the tank if it is completely full. Brakes Disc brake linings have built-in wear indicators that make a high-pitched warning sound when the brake linings are worn and new linings are needed. The sound can come and go or can be heard all the time when the vehicle is moving, except when applying the brake pedal firmly. { Warning The brake wear warning sound means that soon the brakes will not work well. That could lead to a crash. When the brake wear warning sound is heard, have the vehicle serviced. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care Caution Continuing to drive with worn-out brake linings could result in costly brake repairs. Properly torqued wheel nuts are necessary to help prevent brake pulsation. When tires are rotated, inspect brake linings for wear and evenly tighten wheel nuts in the proper sequence to torque specifications. See Capacities and Specifications 0 304. Brake linings should be replaced as complete axle sets. Brake Squeal and Brake Dust Some driving conditions or climates can cause a brake squeal when the brakes are first applied, clearing up following several applies. This does not mean something is wrong with the brakes. Vehicles equipped with high performance brake systems provide superior fade resistance but will produce increased brake squeal and brake dust on the wheels and calipers as compared to standard brake linings. This is normal. 247 To help reduce squeal, the brake pads are treated with an anti-squeal paste that may need to be reapplied periodically as part of normal vehicle maintenance. The anti-squeal paste will dissipate over time. Also, the use of wheel cleaners or power washers directly on the brake calipers may remove the anti-squeal paste from the brake pads. It may be necessary to reapply the anti-squeal paste if it is removed during cleaning. change in many ways if the wrong brake parts are installed or if parts are improperly installed. If brake squeal is excessive, the anti-squeal paste should be reapplied. The anti-squeal paste should always be reapplied whenever the brake pads are removed or replaced. See your dealer for service. High Performance Brake Lining Car Wash and Extended Parking Care Brake Pedal Travel See your dealer if the brake pedal does not return to normal height, or if there is a rapid increase in pedal travel. This could be a sign that brake service may be required. Replacing Brake System Parts Always replace brake system parts with new, approved replacement parts. If this is not done, the brakes may not work properly. The braking performance can The Brake Fade Warning Assist system is designed for use with the factory-installed brake pads or GM-approved replacement pads. If the brake pads on the vehicle need to be replaced, use GM-approved brake pads. If this is not done, the brake fade warning system may not function properly. If equipped with high performance brake components, binding, clunking or pulsation may be noticeable when first moving the vehicle after parking in cold weather when the brakes have been wet, such as when driving in the rain or after a car wash. The release clunking is normal for brakes with high performance brake linings and does not affect the operation of the brakes. When driving, normal braking should allow for the brakes to clean up and or any pulsation to go away. Apply the brakes several times until the binding or clunking stops. If the vehicle is washed before long term storage, drive it and apply the brakes several times to thoroughly dry the brakes before storing. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 248 Vehicle Care Z51 Brake Burnish Procedure for Corrosion Cleanup Corrosion spotting and grooving on the brake rotor surface may appear after the vehicle sits for an extended period of time, especially in high humidity. This corrosion may result in brake pulsation and noise. To help restore optimal braking performance and reduce noise, complete the following procedure: Caution Performing the brake burnish procedure on a base brake system can result in brake damage. Perform this procedure only on dry pavement, in a safe manner, and in compliance with all local and state ordinances/laws regarding motor vehicle operation. Caution The new vehicle break-in period should be completed before performing the brake burnishing procedure or damage may occur to the powertrain/engine. See New Vehicle Break-In 0 189. Caution Brake Fluid Brake fade can occur during this burnish procedure and can cause brake pedal travel and force to increase. This could extend stopping distance until the brakes are fully burnished. Completing the following procedure as instructed will not damage the brakes. The brake pads may smoke and produce an odor. The braking force and pedal travel may increase. After the procedure, the brake pads may appear white at the rotor contact. 1. Using the G-Force Gauge in the HUD display, apply the brakes 10 times starting at 100 km/h (60 mph) to 50 km/h (30 mph) while decelerating at 0.4g. SeeHead-Up Display (HUD) 0 94. This is a medium brake application. Drive for at least 0.5 km (0.3 mi) between applying the brakes. 2. If further cleanup of the brake discs is needed, repeat this procedure with 0.7g applications. As with all high performance brake systems, some amount of brake squeal is normal. The brake master cylinder reservoir is filled with GM approved DOT 4 brake fluid as indicated on the reservoir cap. See Underhood Compartment Overview 0 231 for the location of the reservoir. Checking Brake Fluid With the vehicle in P (Park) on a level surface, the brake fluid level should be between the minimum and maximum marks on the brake fluid reservoir. There are only two reasons why the brake fluid level in the reservoir may go down: . Normal brake lining wear. When new linings are installed, the fluid level goes back up. . A fluid leak in the brake hydraulic system. Have the brake hydraulic system fixed. With a leak, the brakes will not work well. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care Always clean the brake fluid reservoir cap and the area around the cap before removing it. Do not top off the brake fluid. Adding fluid does not correct a leak. If fluid is added when the linings are worn, there will be too much fluid when new brake linings are installed. Add or remove fluid, as necessary, only when work is done on the brake hydraulic system. Caution If too much brake fluid is added, the brake fluid can spill and cause vehicle damage, including damage to electrical components and surfaces. Add brake fluid only when work is done on the brake hydraulic system. When the brake fluid falls to a low level, the brake warning light comes on. See Brake System Warning Light 0 88. Brake fluid absorbs water over time which degrades the effectiveness of the brake fluid. Replace brake fluid at the specified intervals to prevent increased stopping distance. See Maintenance Schedule 0 292. What to Add Use only GM approved DOT 4 brake fluid from a clean, sealed container. See Recommended Fluids and Lubricants 0 300. { Warning The wrong or contaminated brake fluid could result in damage to the brake system. This could result in the loss of braking leading to a possible injury. Always use the proper GM approved brake fluid. Caution If brake fluid is spilled on the vehicle's painted surfaces, the paint finish can be damaged. Immediately wash off any painted surface. Battery - North America The original equipment battery is maintenance free. Do not remove the cap and do not add fluid. Refer to the replacement number on the original battery label when a new battery is needed. For battery replacement, see your dealer. 249 { Warning WARNING: Battery posts, terminals and related accessories can expose you to chemicals including lead and lead compounds, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov. See the warning on the back cover. Vehicle Storage { Warning Batteries have acid that can burn you and gas that can explode. You can be badly hurt if you are not careful. See Jump Starting - North America 0 276 for tips on working around a battery without getting hurt. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 250 Vehicle Care Extended Storage: It is recommended that the battery maintainer package be used. However, if not, remove the black, negative (−) cable from the battery. All vehicle memory settings will need to be reset when battery power is restored. Park Brake and P (Park) Mechanism Check { Warning Some vehicles have a battery maintainer package. Follow the instructions provided with the battery maintainer package to keep the battery charged when the vehicle is not in use. Plug the battery maintainer into the underhood accessory power outlet only. For vehicles without a battery maintainer, see the following information: Infrequent Usage: Remove the black, negative (−) cable from the battery to keep the battery from running down. See “Window Indexing” under Power Windows 0 28. When you are doing this check, the vehicle could begin to move. You or others could be injured and property could be damaged. Make sure there is room in front of the vehicle in case it begins to roll. Be ready to apply the regular brake at once should the vehicle begin to move. Park on a fairly steep hill, with the vehicle facing downhill. Keeping your foot on the regular brake, set the parking brake. . To check the parking brake's holding ability: With the engine running and the transmission in N (Neutral), slowly remove foot pressure from the regular brake pedal. Do this until the vehicle is held by the parking brake only. . To check the P (Park) mechanism's holding ability: With the engine running, shift to P (Park). Then release the parking brake followed by the regular brake. Contact your dealer if service is required. Wiper Blade Replacement Windshield wiper blades should be inspected for wear and cracking. Replacement blades come in different types and are removed in different ways. For proper type and length, see Maintenance Replacement Parts 0 300. To replace the windshield wiper blade: 1. Pull the windshield wiper assembly away from the windshield. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care 5. Reverse Steps 1–3 for wiper blade replacement. Windshield Replacement HUD System The windshield is part of the HUD system. If the windshield needs to be replaced, be sure to get one that is designed for HUD or the HUD image may look out of focus. Driver Assistance Systems 2. Lift up on the latch in the middle of the wiper blade where the wiper arm attaches. 3. With the latch open, pull the wiper blade down toward the windshield far enough to release it from the J-hooked end of the wiper arm. 4. Remove the wiper blade. Allowing the wiper blade arm to touch the windshield when no wiper blade is installed could damage the windshield. Any damage that occurs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Do not allow the wiper blade arm to touch the windshield. If the windshield needs to be replaced and the vehicle is equipped with a front camera sensor for the Driver Assistance Systems, a GM replacement windshield is recommended. The replacement windshield must be installed according to GM specifications for proper alignment. If it is not, these systems may not work properly, they may display messages, or they may not work at all. See your dealer for proper windshield replacement. Acoustic Windshield The vehicle is equipped with an acoustic windshield. If the windshield needs to be replaced be sure to get an acoustic windshield so you will continue to have the benefits an acoustic windshield can provide. 251 Gas Strut(s) This vehicle is equipped with gas strut(s) to provide assistance in lifting and holding open the hood/trunk/liftgate system in full open position. { Warning If the gas struts that hold open the hood, trunk, and/or liftgate fail, you or others could be seriously injured. Take the vehicle to your dealer for service immediately. Visually inspect the gas struts for signs of wear, cracks, or other damage periodically. Check to make sure the hood/trunk/liftgate is held open with enough force. If struts are failing to hold the hood/trunk/liftgate, do not operate. Have the vehicle serviced. Caution Do not apply tape or hang any objects from gas struts. Also do not push down or pull on gas struts. This may cause damage to the vehicle. See Maintenance Schedule 0 292. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 252 Vehicle Care Bulb Replacement LED Lighting This vehicle has all LED lamps. For replacement of any LED lighting assembly, contact your dealer. Electrical System Electrical System Overload Hood Liftgate Headlamp Aiming Front Headlamp Aiming Headlamp aim has been preset and should need no further adjustment. If the vehicle is damaged in a crash, the headlamp aim may be affected. If adjustment to the headlamps is necessary, see your dealer. Trunk The vehicle has fuses to protect against an electrical system overload. When the current electrical load is too heavy, the circuit breaker opens and closes, protecting the circuit until the current load returns to normal or the problem is fixed. This greatly reduces the chance of circuit overload and fire caused by electrical problems. Fuses protect power devices in the vehicle. If there is a problem on the road and a fuse needs to be replaced, the same amperage fuse can be borrowed. Choose some feature of the vehicle that is not needed to use and replace it as soon as possible. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care To check a fuse, look at the band inside the fuse. If the band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure to replace a bad fuse with a fuse of the identical size and rating. 253 Although the circuit is protected from electrical overload, overload due to heavy snow or ice may cause wiper linkage damage. Always clear ice and heavy snow from the windshield before using the windshield wipers. If the overload is caused by an electrical problem and not snow or ice, be sure to get it fixed. Fuses and Circuit Breakers Replacing a Blown Fuse At the next opportunity, see your dealer to replace the blown fuse. Headlamp Wiring An electrical overload may cause the lamps to go on and off, or in some cases to remain off. Have the headlamp wiring checked right away if the lamps go on and off or remain off. Windshield Wipers If the wiper motor overheats due to heavy snow or ice, the windshield wipers will stop until the motor cools and will then restart. The wiring circuits in the vehicle are protected from short circuits by fuses. This greatly reduces the chance of damage caused by electrical problems. { Danger Fuses and circuit breakers are marked with their ampere rating. Do not exceed the specified amperage rating when replacing fuses and circuit breakers. Use of an oversized fuse or circuit breaker can result in a vehicle fire. You and others could be seriously injured or killed. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 254 Vehicle Care Instrument Panel Fuse Block { Warning Installation or use of fuses that do not meet GM’s original fuse specifications is dangerous.

Wheels and Tires Tires Every new GM vehicle has high-quality tires made by a leading tire manufacturer. See the warranty manual for information regarding the tire warranty and where to get service. For additional information refer to the tire manufacturer. . { Warning Poorly maintained and improperly used tires are dangerous. (Continued) . . . 259 Warning (Continued) Overloading the tires can cause overheating as a result of too much flexing. There could be a blowout and a serious crash. See Vehicle Load Limits 0 186. Underinflated tires pose the same danger as overloaded tires. The resulting crash could cause serious injury. Check all tires frequently to maintain the recommended pressure. Tire pressure should be checked when the tires are cold. Overinflated tires are more likely to be cut, punctured, or broken by a sudden impact — such as when hitting a pothole. Keep tires at the recommended pressure. Worn or old tires can cause a crash. If the tread is badly worn, replace them. Replace any tires that have been damaged by impacts with potholes, curbs, etc. (Continued) Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 260 Vehicle Care Warning (Continued) . Improperly repaired tires can cause a crash. Only your dealer or an authorized tire service center should repair, replace, dismount, and mount the tires. . Do not spin the tires in excess of 56 km/h (35 mph) on slippery surfaces such as snow, mud, ice, etc. Excessive spinning may cause the tires to explode. See Tire Pressure for High-Speed Operation 0 266 for inflation pressure adjustment for high-speed driving. All-Season Tires This vehicle may come with all-season tires. These tires are designed to provide good overall performance on most road surfaces and weather conditions. Original equipment tires designed to GM's specific tire performance criteria have a TPC specification code molded onto the sidewall. Original equipment all-season tires can be identified by the last two characters of this TPC code, which will be “MS.” Consider installing winter tires on the vehicle if frequent driving on snow or ice-covered roads is expected. All-season tires provide adequate performance for most winter driving conditions, but they may not offer the same level of traction or performance as winter tires on snow or ice-covered roads. See Winter Tires 0 260. Winter Tires This vehicle was not originally equipped with winter tires. Winter tires are designed for increased traction on snow and ice-covered roads. Consider installing winter tires on the vehicle if frequent driving on ice or snow covered roads is expected. See your dealer for details regarding winter tire availability and proper tire selection. Also, see Buying New Tires 0 272. With winter tires, there may be decreased dry road traction, increased road noise, and shorter tread life. After changing to winter tires, be alert for changes in vehicle handling and braking. If using winter tires: . Use tires of the same brand and tread type on all four wheel positions. . Use only radial ply tires of the same size, load range, and speed rating as the original equipment tires. Winter tires with the same speed rating as the original equipment tires may not be available for H, V, W, Y, and ZR speed rated tires. If winter tires with a lower speed rating are chosen, never exceed the tire's maximum speed capability. Run-Flat Tires This vehicle, when new, may have had run-flat tires. There is no spare tire, no tire changing equipment, and no place to store a tire in the vehicle. { Warning While driving with run-flat tires at a reduced inflation pressure, avoid making sudden stops or severe maneuvers as the handling capabilities of the tires will be reduced. Driving too fast could cause loss of control and you or others could be injured. Do not drive over 80 km/h (50 mph) with the tire operating at low pressure. Drive cautiously and check the tire pressure as soon as possible. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care Run-flat tires can be driven up to 80 km (50 mi) at speeds less than 80 km/h (50 mph) after a loss of inflation pressure has occurred. There is no need to stop on the side of the road to change the tire. The possible driving range after a pressure loss will vary based on the vehicle load and driving conditions. As soon as possible, contact the nearest authorized GM or run-flat servicing facility for inspection and repair or replacement. When driving on a deflated run-flat tire, avoid potholes and other road hazards that could damage the tire and/or wheel beyond repair. When a tire has been damaged, or if driven any distance while deflated, check with an authorized run-flat tire service center to determine whether the tire can be repaired or should be replaced. To maintain the run-flat feature, all replacement tires must be run-flat tires. To locate the nearest GM or run-flat servicing facility, call Customer Assistance. Low-Profile Tires If the vehicle has 245/35ZR19 or 305/30ZR20 size tires, they are classified as low-profile tires. 261 Caution Caution Low-profile tires are more susceptible to damage from road hazards or curb impact than standard profile tires. Tire and/or wheel assembly damage can occur when coming into contact with road hazards like potholes, or sharp edged objects, or when sliding into a curb. The warranty does not cover this type of damage. Keep tires set to the correct inflation pressure and when possible, avoid contact with curbs, potholes, and other road hazards. High performance summer tires have rubber compounds that lose flexibility and may develop surface cracks in the tread area at temperatures below −7 °C (20 °F). Always store high performance summer tires indoors and at temperatures above −7 °C (20 °F) when not in use. If the tires have been subjected to −7 °C (20 °F) or less, let them warm up in a heated space to at least 5 °C (40 °F) for 24 hours or more before being installed or driving a vehicle on which they are installed. Do not apply heat or blow heated air directly on the tires. Always inspect tires before use. See Tire Inspection 0 270. Summer Tires High Performance Summer Tires This vehicle may come with 245/35ZR19 and 305/30ZR20 high performance summer tires. These tires have a special tread and compound that are optimized for maximum dry and wet road performance. This special tread and compound will have decreased performance in cold climates, and on ice and snow. It is recommended that winter tires be installed on the vehicle if frequent driving at temperatures below approximately 5 °C (40 °F) or on ice or snow covered roads is expected. See Winter Tires 0 260. Tire Sidewall Labeling Useful information about a tire is molded into its sidewall.

Underinflated tires, or tires that do not have enough air, can result in: . Tire overloading and overheating, which could lead to a blowout. . Premature or irregular wear. . Poor handling. (Continued) . 265 Warning (Continued) Reduced fuel economy. Overinflated tires, or tires that have too much air, can result in: . Unusual wear. . Poor handling. . Rough ride. . Needless damage from road hazards. The Tire and Loading Information label on the vehicle indicates the original equipment tires and the correct cold tire inflation pressures. The recommended pressure is the minimum air pressure needed to support the vehicle's maximum load carrying capacity. See Vehicle Load Limits 0 186. How the vehicle is loaded affects vehicle handling and ride comfort. Never load the vehicle with more weight than it was designed to carry. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 266 Vehicle Care When to Check Check the pressure of the tires once a month or more. How to Check Use a good quality pocket-type gauge to check tire pressure. Proper tire inflation cannot be determined by looking at the tire. Check the tire inflation pressure when the tires are cold, meaning the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours or no more than 1.6 km (1 mi). Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem. Press the tire gauge firmly onto the valve to get a pressure measurement. If the cold tire inflation pressure matches the recommended pressure on the Tire and Loading Information label, no further adjustment is necessary. If the inflation pressure is low, add air until the recommended pressure is reached. If the inflation pressure is high, press on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve to release air. Recheck the tire pressure with the tire gauge. Put the valve caps back on the valve stems to keep out dirt and moisture. Use only valve caps designed for the vehicle by GM. TPMS sensors could be damaged and would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Tire Pressure for High-Speed Operation { Warning Driving at high speeds, 255 km/h (155 mph) or higher, puts additional strain on tires. Sustained high-speed driving causes excessive heat buildup and can cause sudden tire failure. This could cause a crash, and you or others could be killed. Some high-speed rated tires require inflation pressure adjustment for high-speed operation. When speed limits and road conditions allow the vehicle to be driven at high speeds, make sure the tires are rated for high-speed operation, (Continued) Warning (Continued) are in excellent condition, and are set to the correct cold tire inflation pressure for the vehicle load. Vehicles with tire sizes listed in the High Speed Operation Inflation Pressures table require inflation pressure adjustment when driving the vehicle at speeds of 255 km/h (155 mph) or higher. Set the cold tire inflation pressure to the corresponding value in the table for the tire size on the vehicle. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care 267 High Speed Operation Inflation Pressures Tire Size Cold Inflation Pressure kPa (psi) 245/35ZR19 260 kPa (38 psi) 305/30ZR20 260 kPa (38 psi) Return the tires to the recommended cold tire inflation pressure when high-speed driving has ended. See Vehicle Load Limits 0 186 and Tire Pressure 0 265. Tire Pressure Monitor System The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses radio and sensor technology to check tire pressure levels. The TPMS sensors monitor the air pressure in your tires and transmit tire pressure readings to a receiver located in the vehicle. Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 268 Vehicle Care TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly. See Tire Pressure Monitor Operation 0 268. See Radio Frequency Statement 0 315. Tire Pressure Monitor Operation This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS). The TPMS is designed to warn the driver when a low tire pressure condition exists. TPMS sensors are mounted onto each tire and wheel assembly, excluding the spare tire and wheel assembly. The TPMS sensors monitor the air pressure in the tires and transmit the tire pressure readings to a receiver located in the vehicle. When a low tire pressure condition is detected, the TPMS illuminates the low tire pressure warning light located on the instrument cluster. If the warning light comes on, stop as soon as possible and inflate the tires to the recommended pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label. See Vehicle Load Limits 0 186. A message to check the pressure in a specific tire displays in the Driver Information Center (DIC). The low tire pressure warning light and the DIC warning message come on at each ignition cycle until the tires are inflated to the correct inflation pressure. If the vehicle has DIC buttons, tire pressure levels can be viewed. For additional information and details about the DIC operation and displays, see Driver Information Center (DIC) 0 92. The low tire pressure warning light may come on in cool weather when the vehicle is first started, and then turn off as the vehicle is driven. This could be an early indicator that the air pressure is getting low and needs to be inflated to the proper pressure. A Tire and Loading Information label shows the size of the original equipment tires and the correct inflation pressure for the tires when they are cold. See Vehicle Load Limits 0 186, for an example of the Tire and Loading Information label and its location. Also see Tire Pressure 0 265. The TPMS can warn about a low tire pressure condition but it does not replace normal tire maintenance. See Tire Inspection 0 270, Tire Rotation 0 270 and Tires 0 259. Caution Tire sealant materials are not all the same. A non-approved tire sealant could damage the TPMS sensors. TPMS sensor damage caused by using an incorrect tire sealant is not covered by the vehicle warranty. Always use only the GM approved tire sealant available through your dealer or included in the vehicle. TPMS Malfunction Light and Message The TPMS will not function properly if one or more of the TPMS sensors are missing or inoperable. When the system detects a malfunction, the low tire pressure warning light flashes for about one minute and then stays on for the remainder of the ignition cycle. A DIC warning message also displays. The malfunction light and DIC warning Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care message come on at each ignition cycle until the problem is corrected. Some of the conditions that can cause these to come on are: . One of the road tires has been replaced with the spare tire. The spare tire does not have a TPMS sensor. The malfunction light and the DIC message should go off after the road tire is replaced and the sensor matching process is performed successfully. See "TPMS Sensor Matching Process" later in this section. . The TPMS sensor matching process was not done or not completed successfully after rotating the tires. The malfunction light and the DIC message should go off after successfully completing the sensor matching process. See "TPMS Sensor Matching Process" later in this section. . One or more TPMS sensors are missing or damaged. The malfunction light and the DIC message should go off when the TPMS sensors are installed and the sensor matching process is performed successfully. See your dealer for service. . Replacement tires or wheels do not match the original equipment tires or wheels. Tires and wheels other than those recommended could prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. See Buying New Tires 0 272. . Operating electronic devices or being near facilities using radio wave frequencies similar to the TPMS could cause the TPMS sensors to malfunction. If the TPMS is not functioning properly, it cannot detect or signal a low tire pressure condition. See your dealer for service if the TPMS malfunction light and DIC message come on and stay on. Tire Fill Alert (If Equipped) This feature provides visual and audible alerts outside the vehicle to help when inflating an underinflated tire to the recommended cold tire pressure. When the low tire pressure warning light comes on: 1. Park the vehicle in a safe, level place. 2. Set the parking brake firmly. 3. Place the vehicle in P (Park). 4. Add air to the tire that is underinflated. The turn signal lamp will flash. When the recommended pressure is reached, the horn sounds once. If the tire being inflated is a front tire, then the 269 front turn signal lamp closest to the tire being inflated will stop flashing and briefly turn solid. If the tire being inflated is a rear tire, then the rear turn signal lamp closest to the tire being inflated will stop flashing. Repeat these steps for all underinflated tires that have illuminated the low tire pressure warning light. { Warning Overinflating a tire could cause the tire to rupture and you or others could be injured. Do not exceed the maximum pressure listed on the tire sidewall. See Tire Sidewall Labeling 0 261 and Vehicle Load Limits 0 186. If the tire is overinflated by more than 35 kPa (5 psi), the horn will sound multiple times and the turn signal lamp will continue to flash for several seconds after filling stops. To release and correct the pressure, while the turn signal lamp is still flashing, briefly press the center of the valve stem. When the recommended pressure is reached, the horn sounds once. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 270 Vehicle Care If the turn signal lamp does not flash within 15 seconds after starting to inflate the tire, the tire fill alert has not been activated or is not working. If the hazard warning flashers are on, the tire fill alert visual feedback will not work properly. The TPMS will not activate the tire fill alert properly under the following conditions: . There is interference from an external device or transmitter. . The air pressure from the inflation device is not sufficient to inflate the tire. . There is a malfunction in the TPMS. . There is a malfunction in the horn or turn signal lamps. . The identification code of the TPMS sensor is not registered to the system. . The battery of the TPMS sensor is low. If the tire fill alert does not operate due to TPMS interference, move the vehicle about 1 m (3 ft) back or forward and try again. If the tire fill alert feature is not working, use a tire pressure gauge. TPMS Sensor Matching Process — Auto Learn Function Each TPMS sensor has a unique identification code. The identification code needs to be matched to a new tire/wheel position after rotating the tires or replacing one or more of the TPMS sensors. When a tire is installed, the vehicle must be stationary for about 20 minutes before the system recalculates. The following relearn process takes up to 10 minutes, driving at a minimum speed of 20 km/h (12 mph). A dash (-) or pressure value will display in the DIC. See Driver Information Center (DIC) 0 92. A warning message displays in the DIC if a problem occurs during the relearn process. Tire Inspection We recommend that the tires, including the spare tire, if the vehicle has one, be inspected for signs of wear or damage at least once a month. Replace the tire if: . The indicators at three or more places around the tire can be seen. There is cord or fabric showing through the tire's rubber. . The tread or sidewall is cracked, cut, or snagged deep enough to show cord or fabric. . The tire has a bump, bulge, or split. . The tire has a puncture, cut, or other damage that cannot be repaired well because of the size or location of the damage. . Tire Rotation The tires should be rotated every 12 000 km (7,500 mi). See Maintenance Schedule 0 292. Tires are rotated to achieve uniform wear for all tires. The first rotation is the most important. Anytime unusual wear is noticed, rotate the tires as soon as possible, check for proper tire inflation pressure, and check for damaged tires or wheels. If the unusual wear continues after the rotation, check the wheel alignment. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care See When It Is Time for New Tires 0 271 and Wheel Replacement 0 275. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor System. See Tire Pressure Monitor Operation 0 268. Different tire sizes should not be rotated front to rear. Check that all wheel nuts are properly tightened. See “Wheel Nut Torque” under Capacities and Specifications 0 304. { Warning Use this rotation pattern if the vehicle has different size tires on the front and rear. Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the parts to which it is fastened, can cause wheel nuts to become loose over time. The wheel could come off and cause a crash. When changing a wheel, remove any rust or dirt from places where the wheel attaches to the vehicle. In an emergency, a cloth or paper towel can be used; however, use a scraper or wire brush later to remove all rust or dirt. Adjust the front and rear tires to the recommended inflation pressure on the Tire and Loading Information label after the tires have been rotated. See Tire Pressure 0 265 and Vehicle Load Limits 0 186. Lightly coat the inner diameter of the wheel hub opening with wheel bearing grease after a wheel change or tire rotation to prevent corrosion or rust buildup. 271 { Warning Do not apply grease to the wheel mounting surface, wheel conical seats, or the wheel nuts or bolts. Grease applied to these areas could cause a wheel to become loose or come off, resulting in a crash. When It Is Time for New Tires Factors, such as maintenance, temperatures, driving speeds, vehicle loading, and road conditions affect the wear rate of the tires. Treadwear indicators are one way to tell when it is time for new tires. Treadwear indicators appear when the tires have only Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 272 Vehicle Care 1.6 mm (1/16 in) or less of tread remaining. See Tire Inspection 0 270 and Tire Rotation 0 270 for additional information. The rubber in tires ages over time. This also applies to the spare tire, if the vehicle has one, even if it is never used. Multiple factors including temperatures, loading conditions, and inflation pressure maintenance affect how fast aging takes place. GM recommends that tires, including the spare if equipped, be replaced after six years, regardless of tread wear. To identify the age of a tire, use the tire manufacture date, which is the last four digits of the DOT Tire Identification Number (TIN) molded into one side of the tire sidewall. The last four digits of the TIN indicate the tire manufactured date. The first two digits represent the week and the last two digits, the year. For example, the third week of the year 2020 would have a 4-digit DOT date of 0320. Week 01 is the first full week (Sunday through Saturday) of each year. Vehicle Storage Tires age when stored normally mounted on a parked vehicle. Park a vehicle that will be stored for at least a month in a cool, dry, clean area away from direct sunlight to slow aging. This area should be free of grease, gasoline, or other substances that can deteriorate rubber. Parking for an extended period can cause flat spots on the tires that may result in vibrations while driving. When storing a vehicle for at least a month, remove the tires or raise the vehicle to reduce the weight from the tires. Buying New Tires GM has developed and matched specific tires for the vehicle. The original equipment tires installed were designed to meet General Motors Tire Performance Criteria Specification (TPC Spec) system rating. When replacement tires are needed, GM strongly recommends buying tires with the same TPC Spec rating. GM's exclusive TPC Spec system considers over a dozen critical specifications that impact the overall performance of the vehicle, including brake system performance, ride and handling, traction control, and tire pressure monitoring performance. GM's TPC Spec number is molded onto the tire's sidewall near the tire size. If the tires have an all-season tread design, the TPC Spec number will be followed by MS for mud and snow. See Tire Sidewall Labeling 0 261 for additional information. GM recommends replacing worn tires in complete sets of four. Uniform tread depth on all tires will help to maintain the performance of the vehicle. Braking and handling performance may be adversely affected if all the tires are not replaced at the same time. If proper rotation and maintenance have been done, all four tires should wear out at about the same time. However, if it is necessary to replace only one axle set of worn tires, place the new tires on the rear axle. See Tire Rotation 0 270. { Warning Tires could explode during improper service. Attempting to mount or dismount a tire could cause injury or (Continued) Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care Warning (Continued) death. Only your dealer or authorized tire service center should mount or dismount the tires. { Warning Mixing tires of different sizes (other than those originally installed on the vehicle), brands, tread patterns, or types may cause loss of vehicle control, resulting in a crash or other vehicle damage. Use the correct size, brand, and type of tire on all wheels. { Warning Using bias-ply tires on the vehicle may cause the wheel rim flanges to develop cracks after many miles of driving. A tire and/or wheel could fail suddenly and cause a crash. Use only radial-ply tires with the wheels on the vehicle. Winter tires with the same speed rating as the original equipment tires may not be available for H, V, W, Y and ZR speed rated tires. Never exceed the winter tires’ maximum speed capability when using winter tires with a lower speed rating. If the vehicle tires must be replaced with a tire that does not have a TPC Spec number, make sure they are the same size, load range, speed rating, and construction (radial) as the original tires. The Tire and Loading Information label indicates the original equipment tires on the vehicle. See Vehicle Load Limits 0 186. Different Size Tires and Wheels If wheels or tires are installed that are a different size than the original equipment wheels and tires, vehicle performance, including its braking, ride and handling characteristics, stability, and resistance to rollover may be affected. If the vehicle has electronic systems such as antilock brakes, rollover airbags, traction control, 273 or electronic stability control, the performance of these systems can also be affected. { Warning If different sized wheels are used, there may not be an acceptable level of performance and safety if tires not recommended for those wheels are selected. This increases the chance of a crash and serious injury. Only use GM specific wheel and tire systems developed for the vehicle, and have them properly installed by a GM certified technician. See Buying New Tires 0 272 and Accessories and Modifications 0 229. Uniform Tire Quality Grading The following information relates to the system developed by the United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which grades tires by treadwear, traction, and temperature performance. This applies only to vehicles sold in the United States. The grades are molded on the sidewalls of most passenger car tires. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 274 Vehicle Care The Uniform Tire Quality Grading (UTQG) system does not apply to deep tread, winter tires, compact spare tires, tires with nominal rim diameters of 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm), or to some limited-production tires. While the tires available on General Motors passenger cars and light trucks may vary with respect to these grades, they must also conform to federal safety requirements and additional General Motors Tire Performance Criteria (TPC) standards. Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A All Passenger Car Tires Must Conform to Federal Safety Requirements In Addition To These Grades. Treadwear The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1½) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate. Traction The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those grades represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance. Warning: The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead braking traction tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics. Temperature The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law. Warning: The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Vehicle Care Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance The tires and wheels were aligned and balanced at the factory to provide the longest tire life and best overall performance. Adjustments to wheel alignment and tire balancing are not necessary on a regular basis. Consider an alignment check if there is unusual tire wear or the vehicle is significantly pulling to one side or the other. Some slight pull to the left or right, depending on the crown of the road and/or other road surface variations such as troughs or ruts, is normal. If the vehicle is vibrating when driving on a smooth road, the tires and wheels may need to be rebalanced. See your dealer for proper diagnosis. Road Imperfections/Crown Effects The vehicle's precise steering and handling make it very responsive to road surface feedback. A slight pull may be felt in the steering depending on the crown of the road and/or other road surface variations such as troughs or ruts. This is normal and the vehicle does not require service. Tire Chatter/Hop When driving at slow speeds and in very tight turns, the vehicle may have tire chatter/hop. This is normal and the vehicle does not require service. Wheel Replacement Replace any wheel that is bent, cracked, or badly rusted or corroded. If wheel nuts keep coming loose, the wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel nuts should be replaced. If the wheel leaks air, replace it. Some aluminum wheels can be repaired. See your dealer if any of these conditions exist. Your dealer will know the kind of wheel that is needed. Each new wheel should have the same load-carrying capacity, diameter, width, offset, and be mounted the same way as the one it replaces. Replace wheels, wheel bolts, wheel nuts, or Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) sensors with new GM original equipment parts. 275 { Warning Using the wrong replacement wheels, wheel bolts, or wheel nuts can be dangerous. It could affect the braking and handling of the vehicle. Tires can lose air and cause loss of control, resulting in a crash. Always use the correct wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel nuts for replacement. Caution The wrong wheel can also cause problems with bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer or odometer calibration, headlamp aim, bumper height, vehicle ground clearance, and tire or tire chain clearance to the body and chassis. Used Replacement Wheels { Warning Replacing a wheel with a used one is dangerous. How it has been used or how far it has been driven may be unknown. (Continued) Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 276 Vehicle Care Warning (Continued) It could fail suddenly and cause a crash. When replacing wheels, use a new GM original equipment wheel. Tire Chains { Warning Do not use tire chains. There is not enough clearance. Tire chains used on a vehicle without the proper amount of clearance can cause damage to the brakes, suspension, or other vehicle parts. The area damaged by the tire chains could cause loss of control and a crash. Use another type of traction device only if its manufacturer recommends it for the vehicle's tire size combination and road conditions. Follow that manufacturer's instructions. To avoid vehicle damage, drive slowly and readjust or remove the traction device if it contacts the vehicle. Do not spin the wheels. If traction devices are used, install them on the rear tires. If a Tire Goes Flat It is unusual for a tire to blow out while driving, especially if the tires are maintained properly. If air goes out of a tire, it is much more likely to leak out slowly. See Tires 0 259 for additional information. But if there ever is a blowout, here are a few tips about what to expect and what to do: If a front tire fails, the flat tire creates a drag that pulls the vehicle toward that side. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal and grip the steering wheel firmly. Steer to maintain lane position, and then gently brake to a stop, well off the road, if possible. A rear blowout, particularly on a curve, acts much like a skid and may require the same correction as used in a skid. Stop pressing the accelerator pedal and steer to straighten the vehicle. It may be very bumpy and noisy. Gently brake to a stop, well off the road, if possible. The vehicle has no spare tire, no tire changing equipment, and no place to store a tire. If the vehicle has run-flat tires, there is no need to stop on the side of the road to change a flat tire. See Run-Flat Tires 0 260. { Warning Special tools and procedures are required to service a run-flat tire. If these special tools and procedures are not used, injury or vehicle damage may occur. Always be sure the proper tools and procedures, as described in the service manual, are used.

Normally, any concerns with the sales transaction or the operation of the vehicle 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. STEP TWO : If after contacting a member of dealership management, it appears your concern cannot be resolved by your dealership without further help, in the U.S., call the Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-222-1020. In Canada, call General Motors of Canada Customer Care Centre at 1-800-263-3777 (English), or 1-800-263-7854 (French). Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 308 Customer Information We encourage you to call the toll-free number in order to give your inquiry prompt attention. Have the following information available to give the Customer Assistance representative: . Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This is available from the vehicle registration or title, or the plate at the top left of the instrument panel and visible through the windshield. . Dealership name and location. . Vehicle delivery date and present mileage. When contacting Chevrolet, remember that your concern will likely be resolved at a dealer's facility. That is why we suggest following Step One first. STEP THREE — U.S. Owners : Both General Motors and your dealer are committed to making sure you are completely satisfied with your new vehicle. However, if you continue to remain unsatisfied after following the procedure outlined in Steps One and Two, you can file with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) AUTO LINE Program to enforce your rights. The BBB AUTO LINE Program is an out-of-court program administered by BBB National Programs, Inc. to settle automotive disputes regarding vehicle repairs or the interpretation of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Although you may be required to resort to this informal dispute resolution program prior to filing a court action, use of the program is free of charge and your case will generally be heard within 40 days. If you do not agree with the decision given in your case, you may reject it and proceed with any other venue for relief available to you. General Motors reserves the right to change eligibility limitations and/or discontinue its participation in this program. Telephone: 1-800-955-5100 http://www.bbb.org/council/ programs-services/ dispute-handling-and-resolution/bbb-auto-line STEP THREE — Canadian Owners : In the event that you do not feel your concerns have been addressed after following the procedure outlined in Steps One and Two, General Motors of Canada Company wants you to be aware of its participation in a no-charge Mediation/Arbitration Program. General Motors of Canada Company has committed to binding arbitration of owner disputes involving factory-related vehicle service claims. The program provides for the review of the facts involved by an impartial third party arbiter, and may include an informal hearing before the arbiter. The program is designed so that the entire dispute settlement process, from the time you file your complaint to the final decision, should be completed in about 70 days.

By scheduling a service appointment and advising the service consultant of your transportation needs, your dealer can help minimize your inconvenience. If the vehicle cannot be scheduled into the service department immediately, keep driving it until it can be scheduled for service, unless, of course, the problem is safety related. If it is, please call your dealership, let them know this, and ask for instructions. If your dealer requests you to bring the vehicle for service, you are urged to do so as early in the work day as possible to allow for same-day repair. Courtesy Transportation Program To enhance your ownership experience, we and our participating dealers are proud to offer Courtesy Transportation, a customer support program for vehicles with the Bumper-to-Bumper (Base Warranty Coverage period in Canada), Federal Emission, Extended Powertrain or Electric specific warranties in both the U.S. and Canada. Several Courtesy Transportation options are available to assist in reducing inconvenience when warranty repairs are required. Courtesy Transportation is not a part of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. A separate manual entitled “Limited Warranty and Owner Assistance Information” furnished with each new vehicle provides detailed warranty coverage information. Transportation Options Warranty service can generally be completed while you wait. However, if you are unable to do so, your dealer may offer the following transportation options: Shuttle Service This includes one-way or round-trip shuttle service within reasonable time and distance parameters of your dealer's area. Public Transportation or Fuel Reimbursement If overnight warranty repairs are needed, and public transportation is used, the expense must be supported by original receipts and within the maximum amount allowed by GM. If U.S. customers arrange their own transportation, limited reimbursement for reasonable fuel expenses may be available. Claim amounts should reflect actual costs and be supported by original receipts. See your dealer for information. Courtesy Rental Vehicle For an overnight warranty repair, the dealer may provide an available courtesy rental vehicle or provide for reimbursement of a rental vehicle. Reimbursement is limited and must be supported by original receipts as well as a signed and completed rental agreement and meet state/provincial, local, and rental vehicle provider requirements. Requirements vary and may include minimum age requirements, insurance coverage, credit card, etc. Additional fees such as fuel, rental vehicle insurance, taxes, levies, usage fees, excessive mileage, or rental usage beyond the completion of the repair are also your responsibility. It may not be possible to provide a like vehicle as a courtesy rental. Additional Program Information All program options, such as shuttle service, may not be available at every dealer. Contact your dealer for specific availability. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Customer Information General Motors reserves the right to unilaterally modify, change, or discontinue Courtesy Transportation at any time and to resolve all questions of claim eligibility pursuant to the terms and conditions described herein at its sole discretion. Collision Damage Repair If the vehicle is involved in a collision and it is damaged, have the damage repaired by a qualified technician using the proper equipment and quality replacement parts. Poorly performed collision repairs diminish the vehicle resale value, and safety performance can be compromised in subsequent collisions. Collision Parts Genuine GM Collision parts are new parts made with the same materials and construction methods as the parts with which the vehicle was originally built. Genuine GM Collision parts are the best choice to ensure that the vehicle's designed appearance, durability, and safety are preserved. The use of Genuine GM parts can help maintain the GM New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Recycled original equipment parts may also be used for repair. These parts are typically removed from vehicles that were total losses in prior crashes. In most cases, the parts being recycled are from undamaged sections of the vehicle. A recycled original equipment GM part may be an acceptable choice to maintain the vehicle's originally designed appearance and safety performance; however, the history of these parts is not known. Such parts are not covered by the GM New Vehicle Limited Warranty, and any related failures are not covered by that warranty. Aftermarket collision parts are also available. These are made by companies other than GM and may not have been tested for the vehicle. As a result, these parts may fit poorly, exhibit premature durability/ corrosion problems, and may not perform properly in subsequent collisions. Aftermarket parts are not covered by the GM New Vehicle Limited Warranty, and any vehicle failure related to such parts is not covered by that warranty. Repair Facility GM also recommends that you choose a collision repair facility that meets your needs before you ever need collision repairs. 313 Your dealer may have a collision repair center with GM-trained technicians and state-of-the-art equipment, or be able to recommend a collision repair center that has GM-trained technicians and comparable equipment. Insuring the Vehicle Protect your investment in the GM vehicle with comprehensive and collision insurance coverage. There are significant differences in the quality of coverage afforded by various insurance policy terms. Many insurance policies provide reduced protection to the GM vehicle by limiting compensation for damage repairs through the use of aftermarket collision parts. Some insurance companies will not specify aftermarket collision parts. When purchasing insurance, we recommend that you ensure that the vehicle will be repaired with GM original equipment collision parts. If such insurance coverage is not available from your current insurance carrier, consider switching to another insurance carrier. If the vehicle is leased, the leasing company may require you to have insurance that ensures repairs with Genuine GM Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts or Genuine Manufacturer replacement parts. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 314 Customer Information Read the lease carefully, as you may be charged at the end of the lease for poor quality repairs. If a Crash Occurs If there has been an injury, call emergency services for help. Do not leave the scene of a crash until all matters have been taken care of. Move the vehicle only if its position puts you in danger, or you are instructed to move it by a police officer. Give only the necessary information to police and other parties involved in the crash. For emergency towing see Roadside Assistance Program 0 310. Gather the following information: . Driver name, address, and telephone number . Driver license number . Owner name, address, and telephone number . Vehicle license plate number . Vehicle make, model, and model year . Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) . Insurance company and policy number . General description of the damage to the other vehicle Choose a reputable repair facility that uses quality replacement parts. See “Collision Parts” earlier in this section. If the airbag has inflated, see What Will You See after an Airbag Inflates? 0 56. Managing the Vehicle Damage Repair Process In the event that the vehicle requires damage repairs, GM recommends that you take an active role in its repair. If you have a pre-determined repair facility of choice, take the vehicle there, or have it towed there. Specify to the facility that any required replacement collision parts be original equipment parts, either new Genuine GM parts or recycled original GM parts. Remember, recycled parts will not be covered by the GM vehicle warranty. Insurance pays the bill for the repair, but you must live with the repair. Depending on your policy limits, your insurance company may initially value the repair using aftermarket parts. Discuss this with the repair professional, and insist on Genuine GM parts. Remember, if the vehicle is leased, you may be obligated to have the vehicle repaired with Genuine GM parts, even if your insurance coverage does not pay the full cost. If another party's insurance company is paying for the repairs, you are not obligated to accept a repair valuation based on that insurance company's collision policy repair limits, as you have no contractual limits with that company. In such cases, you can have control of the repair and parts choices as long as the cost stays within reasonable limits. Publication Ordering Information Service Manuals Service manuals have the diagnosis and repair information on the engine, transmission, axle, suspension, brakes, electrical system, steering system, body, etc. Customer Literature Owner’s manuals are written specifically for owners and are intended to provide basic operational information about the vehicle.

Vehicle Data Recording and Privacy The vehicle has a number of computers that record information about the vehicle’s performance and how it is driven or used. For example, the vehicle uses computer modules to monitor and control engine and transmission performance, to monitor the conditions for airbag deployment and deploy them in a crash, and, if equipped, to provide antilock braking to help the driver control the vehicle. These modules may store data to help the dealer technician service the vehicle or to help GM improve safety or features. Some modules may also store data about how the vehicle is operated, such as rate of fuel consumption or average speed. These modules may retain personal preferences, such as radio presets, seat positions, and temperature settings. Cybersecurity GM collects information about the use of your vehicle including operational and safety related information. We collect this information to provide, evaluate, improve, and troubleshoot our products and services and to develop new products and services. The protection of vehicle electronics systems and customer data from unauthorized outside electronic access or control is important to GM. GM maintains appropriate security standards, practices, guidelines and controls aimed at defending the vehicle and the vehicle service ecosystem against unauthorized electronic access, detecting possible malicious activity in related networks, and responding to suspected cybersecurity incidents in a timely, coordinated and effective manner. Security incidents could impact your safety or compromise your private data. To minimize security risks, please do not connect your vehicle electronic systems to unauthorized devices or connect your vehicle to any unknown or untrusted networks (such as Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 Customer Information Bluetooth, WIFI or similar technology). In the event you suspect any security incident impacting your data or the safe operation of your vehicle, please stop operating your vehicle and contact your dealer. Event Data Recorders This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as: . How various systems in your vehicle were operating; . Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened; . How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and, . How fast the vehicle was traveling. These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur. Note EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation. To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR. GM will not access these data or share it with others except: with the consent of the vehicle owner or, if the vehicle is leased, with the consent of the lessee; in response to an official request by police or similar government office; as part of GM's defense of litigation through the discovery process; or, as permitted by law. Data that GM 317 collects or receives may also be used for GM research needs or may be made available to others for research purposes, where a need is shown and the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or vehicle owner. OnStar If the vehicle is equipped with OnStar and has an active service plan, additional data may be collected and transmitted through the OnStar system. This includes information about the vehicle’s operation; collisions involving the vehicle; the use of the vehicle and its features, including infotainment; and the location and approximate GPS speed of the vehicle. Refer to the OnStar Terms and Conditions and Privacy Statement on the OnStar website. See OnStar Additional Information 0 320. Infotainment System If the vehicle is equipped with a navigation system as part of the infotainment system, use of the system may result in the storage of destinations, addresses, telephone numbers, and other trip information. See the infotainment section for information on stored data and for deletion instructions. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 318 OnStar OnStar OnStar Overview The OnStar system status light is next to the OnStar buttons.

If GPS signals are not available, the OnStar system should still 321 operate to call OnStar. However, OnStar could have difficulty identifying the exact location. . In emergency situations, OnStar can use the last stored GPS location to send to emergency responders. A temporary loss of GPS can cause loss of the ability to send a Turn-by-Turn Navigation route. The Advisor may give a verbal route or may ask for a call back after the vehicle is driven into an open area. Cellular and GPS Antennas Cellular reception is required for OnStar to send remote signals to the vehicle. Do not place items over or near the antenna to prevent blocking cellular and GPS signal reception. Unable to Connect to OnStar Message If there is limited cellular coverage or the cellular network has reached maximum capacity, this message may come on. Press Q to try the call again or try again after driving a few miles into another cellular area. Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico15342622) - 2022 - CRC - 5/4/21 322 OnStar Vehicle and Power Issues OnStar services require a vehicle electrical system, wireless service, and GPS satellite technologies to be available and operating for features to function properly.
