Your vehicle may be equipped with the Passlock
theft-deterrent system.
To find out if your vehicle has
Passlock, turn the ignition key to RUN position.
If the
THEFT SYSTEM light comes on, then your vehicle is
equipped with Passlock. Passlock
is a passive
theft-deterrent system. The system is armed once the
key is removed from the ignition. Passlock enables fuel
if the ignition lock cylinder is turned with a valid key. If
a correct key is not used, fuel is disabled.
During normal operation, the
THEFT SYSTEM light will
go
off after the engine is started. In the unlikely event that
the engine stalls and the
THEFI’ SYSTEM light flashes,
wait until the light stops flashing before
trying to restart
the engine. Remember to release the key from.the START
position
as soon as the engine starts. If after several tries
the vehicle still does not start, the vehicle may need
service. At
this the, you may also want to check the fuses
(see “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the Index).
See your
Chevrolet dealer for service.
If the THEFT SYSTEM light comes on while the engine
is running, a problem has been detected and
the system
may need service. See your Chevrolet dealer for service.
In an emergency, call the Chevrolet Roadside Assistance
Program at 1-800-CHEV USA (1-800-243-8872).
New Vehicle “Break-In”
Your modern Chevrolet doesn’t need an
elaborate “break-in.” But it will perform better
in the long run if you follow these guidelines:
e
e
0
Don’t drive at any one speed -- fast or
slow
-- for the first 500 miles (804 h).
Don’t make full-throttle starts.
Avoid making hard stops for the
first
200 miles (322 km) or so. During this time
your new brake linings aren’t yet broken
in. Hard stops with new linings can mean
premature wear and earlier replacement.
Follow this “breaking-in” guideline every
time you get new brake linings.
Don’t tow a trailer during “break-in.” See
“Towing a Trailer’’ in the Index for more
information.

The turn signal has two upward (for right) and two
downward (for left) positions. These positions allow you
to signal a turn or a lane change,
To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up or down.
When the turn
is finished, the lever will return
automatically.
A green arrow on the
instrument panel will flash
in the direction of the turn
or lane change.
To signal
a lane change, -just raise or lower the lever
until the green arrow starts to flash. Hold it there until
you complete your lane change. The lever will return by
itself when
you release it.
As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the arrows don’t
flash but just stay
on, a signal bulb may be burned out
and other drivers won’t see your turn signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an
accident.
If the green arrows don’t go on at all when you
signal
a turn, check the fuse (see “Fuses and Circuit
Breakers”
in the Index) and for burned-out bulbs.
