1. Turn the cruise control on.
2. Get up to the speed you want.
3. Push in the set button
at the end
of the lever
and release
it.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal. Suppose you set your cruise control
at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake or clutch pedal.
This, of
course, shuts off the cruise control. But you don’t need
to reset it.
Once you’re going about
25 mph (40 km/h) or more,
you can move the cruise
control switch to IUA
(Resume/Accelerate) for
about half a second.
You’ll go right back up
to your chosen speed and stay
there.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Your Corvette’s odometer is tamper-resistant. It will
read
OD0 ERR if someone has tampered with it.
If a new odometer is installed, it will automatically reset
to the correct reading. If an electrical or other problem
makes setting the odometer correctly impossible, then
it’s set
at zero, but a label on the driver’s door must
show the old reading and when the new one was
installed.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer can tell you how far your Corvette has
been driven since you last set the trip odometer to zero.
To display the trip odometer, press TRIP OD0 on the
Trip Monitor.
To reset it, press and hold RESET TRIP
for two seconds.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in thousands
of revolutions per minute (rpm).
Fuel will shut off at
7200 rpm for the LT5 (Code J)
engine and at 5850 rpm for the LT1, (Code P) engine.
If you continue to drive your Corvette at the fuel shut
off rpm, you could damage your engine. Be sure to
operate your Corvette below the fuel shut
off rpm or
reduce your rpm quickly when the fuel shuts off.
Warning Lights, Gauges and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can signal that something is
wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause an
expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention to
your warning lights and gauges could also save you or
others from injury.
Warning lights come
on when there may be or is a
problem with one of your vehicle’s functions. As you
will see in the details on the next few pages, some
warning lights come
on briefly when you start the
engine just to let you know they’re working. If you are
familiar with this section, you should not be alarmed
when this happens.
Gauges can indicate when there may be or is a problem
with one
of your vehicle’s functions. Often gauges and
warning lights work together to let you know when
there’s a problem with your vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on
when you are driving, or when one
of the gauges shows
there may be a problem, check the section that tells you
what to do about it. Please follow this manual’s advice.
Waiting to
do repairs can be costly -- and even
dangerous.
So please get to know your warning lights
and gauges. They’re a big help.

SERVICE
With the anti-lock brake
system, this light will come
on when you start your
engine and may stay on for
several seconds. That’s
normal. If the light doesn’t
come on, have it fixed
so it
will be ready to warn you if
there is a problem.
Anti-Lock Brake System Active Light
ABS
ACTIVE
When your anti-lock system
is adjusting brake pressure
to help avoid a braking skid,
the
ABS ACTIVE light will
come on. Slippery road
conditions may exist
if this
light comes on,
so adjust
your driving accordingly.
If the light stays on, turn the ignition
off. Or, if the light
comes on when you’re driving, stop
as soon as possible
and turn the ignition
off. Then start the engine again to
reset the system. If the light still stays on, or comes on
again while you’re driving, your Corvette needs service.
If the regular brake system warning light isn’t on, you
still have brakes, but you don’t have anti-lock brakes. If
the regular brake system warning light is also on, you
don’t have anti-lock brakes and there’s a problem with
your regular brakes. See “Brake System Warning Light”
earlier in this part. The
light will stay on for a few seconds after the system
stops adjusting brake pressure.
The ABS ACTIVE light also comes on briefly, as a bulb
check, when the engine is started. If the light doesn’t
come on then, have it fixed
so it will be there to tell you
when the system is active.

flash, even if refrigerant is added, until the system is
reset. Have your system checked and serviced if needed.
To reset your system:
1. Turn your ignition key to OFF or LOCK.
