1995 CHEVROLET CORVETTE window

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine In 1963, Corvette hit the road with an eye-catching new
look
-- the Sting Ray coupe. An instant success, the
now-classic Sting Ray featured concealed headlamps
and a unique split rear window. The split window would
only be offered in 1963, making this model among the
most prized Corvettes ever built.
Restyled inside and out for 1968, this 'Vette sported
a
lean and hungry shape, creating a sense of motion even
when standing still. And for the first time, Corvette
offered removable roof panels.

Universal Theft Deterrent
Your Corvette has a theft
deterrent alarm system.
With this system, the
SECURITY light will flash
as you open the door (if
your ignition is
off). This
light reminds you to arm the
theft deterrent system.
Here’s how to do it:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch or
Passive Keyless Entry system. The SECURITY light
will come on.
3. Close all the doors. The SECURITY light should go

Passive Keyless Entry system, the alarm will go off.
Your horn will sound for three minutes, then it will go
off to save battery power. And, your vehicle won’t start.
The theft deterrent system won’t arm if you lock the
doors with a key or manual door lock, or if you lock the
vehicle after the doors are closed.
If your passenger stays in the vehicle when you leave
with the keys, have the passenger lock the vehicle after
the doors are closed. This way the alarm won’t
arm, and
your passenger won’t set it
off.
Always use your key or the Passive Keyless Entry
system to unlock a door. Unlocking a door any other
way will set off the alarm. If you do set off the alarm
accidentally, there are three ways to stop it:
Unlock any door with your key.
Put the ignition key in the ignition.
Use the Passive Keyless Entry system.
How to Test the Alarm
1. Make sure the rear hatch is latched.
2. Lower a window.
3. Arm the system.
4. Close the doors and wait five seconds.
5. Reach through the open window and unlock the door
from inside. The alarm should sound.
6. Turn off the alarm.
If the alarm doesn’t go off, check to see if the horn
works. If not, check the horn fuse. See “Fuses and
Circuit Breakers” in the Index. If the
horn does work,
. but the alarm doesn’t go off, see your dealer.

Starting Your Engine
Engines start differently. The 8th digit of your Vehicle

Identification Number” in the Index.) Follow the proper
steps to
start the engine.
Automatic transmission:
Move your shift lever to PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N).
Your engine won’t start in any other position
-- that’s a
safety feature. To restart when you’re already moving,
use
NEUTRAL (N) only.
NOTICE:
Don’t try to shift to PARK (P) if your Corvette
is moving.
If you do, you could damage the
transmission. Shift
to PARK (P) only when your
vehicle is stopped.
Manual transmission:
The gear selector should be in neutral. Hold the clutch
pedal to the floor and start the engine. Your vehicle
won’t start if the clutch pedal is not all the way
down
-- that’s a safety feature.
To start your 5.7 Liter LT5 engine:
1. Without pushing the accelerator pedal, turn your
ignition key to START. When the engine starts, let
go of the key. The idle speed will go down as your
engine gets warm.
