1996 CHEVROLET CORVETTE sport mode

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine L;
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

The paint finish on your vehicle providqs beauty, depth
of color, gloss retention and durability.
Washing Your Vehicle
The best way to preserve your vehicle’s finish is to keep
it clean
by washing it often with lukewarm or cold
water.
Don’t wash your vehicle in the direct rays of the sun.
Don’t
use strong soaps or chemical detergents. Use
liquid hand, dish or car washing (mild detergent) soaps.
Don’t
use cleaning agents that are petroleum based,
or that contain acid or abrasives. All cleaning agents
should be flushed promptly and not allowed to dry on
the surface, or they could stain. Dry the finish with a
soft, clean chamois or a
100% cotton towel to avoid
surface scratches and water spotting. High
pressure car washes may cause water to enter your
vehicle.
NOTICE:
Conveyor systems on some automatic car washes
may damage a Corvette. They may not have enough clearance for the undercarriage or for the
extra wide rear tires
on Grand Sport Coupe
models.
Check with the manager before using a car wash,

Finish Care
Occasional waxing or mild polishing of your Corvette
by hand may be necessary to remove residue from the
paint finish. You can get GM-approved cleaning
products from your dealer. (See “Appearance Care and
Materials” in the Index.)
