Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions
on battery
replacement.
Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. This product has a maximum range.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
See your Chevrolet dealer or a qualified technician
for service.
Changes or modifications to this system by other than an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
Operation
You don’t have to do anything for PKE to work when
the passive feature is on. Just walk toward your vehicle
with the
PKE transmitter, and the system will
automatically disarm your theft-deterrent system and
unlock the doors.
If it’s dark enough outside, your
interior lamps will come on.
If you move out of range, the PKE system will:
1. Lock the doors after five seconds.
2. Arm the theft-deterrent system.
3. Sound the horn to let you know the doors are locked.
4. Turn off the interior lamps.
You can also use the buttons on the transmitter. Press
DOOR to open the passenger’s door or HATCH to open
the hatch. The HATCH button will only work when the
ignition is off.
The system has a feature that makes it difficult for you
to lock your keys in your vehicle. If you leave your keys
in the ignition and lock the doors, the system will unlock
the doors as soon as they are closed. If you leave the
keys in the ignition and move away with the transmitter,
the doors still will not lock. You should notice that the
horn doesn’t sound and return to get your keys.

TYPICAL RANGE
Transmitter Range
The transmitter range depends on your vehicle and
where you are standing. The coupk
(A) has an antenna
in the driver's door and one
in the rear area. The -
convertible (B) has one antenna in each door. The
antennas
do not require any maintenance.
Range also depends on how you hold the transmitter.
For best performance, when you come near your
vehicle, hold the transmitter straight up and down,
so the
keys hang down.
If the range seems to be decreasing, check the battery in
the transmitter. Range will decrease if the battery is low.
It will also decrease if more than one transmitter
is in
the area. Don't put the transmitter in a metal container
because the transmitter won't work.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another
transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter
is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through
your dealer. Remember to bring
any remaining
transmitters with you when you go to your dealer. When
the dealer matches the replacement transmitter to your
vehicle, the remaining transmitters must also be
matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the lost
transmitter will not unlock your vehicle.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine You can match a transmitter to as many different
vehicles as you own, provided they
are equipped with
exactly the same model system. (General Motors offers
several different models
of these systems on their
vehicles.) Each vehicle can have only three transmitters
matched to it.
To match transmitters to your vehicle:
1. Move all transmitters out of range.
2. Turn the ignition key on.
3. hsh TRIP OD0 on the Driver Information Center
twice.
4. Within five seconds, press and hold FUEL INFO
until the PASSIVE KEYLESS ENTRY light comes
on.
5. Turn the ignition off, but leave the key in the
ignition. The PASSIVE KEYLESS ENTRY light
should begin to flash to show the system
is in
programming mode.
6. Bring one transmitter into range. The light will stop
flashing and stay on to show that the code is stored.
7. Move the transmitter out of range. The light should

ignition on.
You have programmed three transmitters.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the batteries in your key chain
transmitter should last about
18 months.
You can tell the batteries are weak if the transmitter
won’t work at the normal range in any location. If you
have to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter
works, it’s probably time to change the batteries.

Replacing Brake System Parts
The braking system on a modem vehicle is complex. Its
I
Continuing to drive with worn-out brake pads
could result in costly brake repair.
I
Some driving conditions or climates may cause a brake
squeal when the brakes are first applied or lightly
applied. This does not mean something is wrong with
your brakes.
Brake linings should always be replaced as complete
axle sets.
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 of brake trouble.
Brake Adjustment
As you make brake stops, your disc brakes
automatically adjust for wear. many
parts have to be
of top quality and work well
together if the vehicle is to have really good braking.
Vehicles we design and test have top-quality
GM brake
parts in them, as your Corvette does when
it is new.
When you replace parts of your braking system
-- for
example, when your brake linings wear down and you
have to have new ones put in
-- be sure you get new
genuine
GM replacement parts. If you don’t, your
brakes may no longer work properly. For example, if
someone puts in brake linings that are wrong for your
vehicle, the balance between your front and rear brakes
can change
-- for the worse. The braking performance
you’ve come to expect can change
in many other ways if
someone puts
in the wrong replacement brake parts.
Battery
Every new Corvette has a Delco Freedom@ battery. You
never have to add water to one of these. When it’s time
for a new battery, we recommend a Delco Freedom@
battery. Get one that has the replacement number shown
on the original battery’s label. For battery replacement,
see your dealer or the Corvette Service Manual.
To
purchase a service manual, see “Service Publications” in
the Index.

If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days

the battery. This
