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, any remaining transmitters must
also be
matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the lost
transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. 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. Push 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
start flashing again.
8. Repeat Steps 6 and 7 with each additional

Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your key chain
transmitter should last about
18 months.
You can tell the battery is 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 battery.

days. This setting cools outside air and directs it through
the instrument panel vents.
The air conditioning compressor operates in NORMAL
A/C, as well as RECIRCULATE, BI-LEVEL and
DEFROST. It only works when the outside temperature
is above freezing. When the air conditioning compressor
is on, you may sometimes notice slight changes in
your vehicle's engine speed and power. This
is normal
because the system is designed to cycle the compressor
on and
off to keep the desired cooling and help
fuel economy.
+,d BI-LEVEL: This setting cools or heats outside air
and directs it through the instrument panel vents and the
floor ducts.
de
do
do /I VENT: Air flows through the instrument panel
vents. The air conditioning compressor does not run in
VENT mode.
wg HEATER: This setting directs most of the air
through the floor ducts and some of the air through the
defroster vents. The air conditioning compressor does
not run in HEATER mode.
DEFROST: This setting directs most of the
air through the windshield defroster and side window
defogger vents and some of the air through the
floor ducts.
Heating
The heater works best if you keep your windows closed
while using it.
Press HEATER and
FAN UP, then slide the temperature
control lever to a comfortable setting.
If your vehicle has an engine coolant heater and you
use it in cold weather,
0°F (- 18 "C) or lower, your
heating system can provide heat more quickly because
the engine coolant is already warmed. See "Engine
Coolant Heater" in the Index.

The braking system on a modern vehicle is complex.
Its 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 and Owner
Publications” in the Index.
Vehicle Storage
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days
or more, take
off the black, negative (-) cable from
the battery. This will help keep your battery from
running down.
Batteries have acid that can burn you and gas
that can explode. You can be badly hurt if
you
aren’t careful. See “Jump Starting” in the Index
for tips on working around a battery without getting hurt.
Contact your dealer to learn how to prepare your vehicle
for longer storage periods.
