2007 CHEVROLET CORVETTE horn

If you ever notice a decrease in the keyless
access transmitter range, try doing one of the
following:
Check the distance. You may be too far from
your vehicle. You may need to stand closer
during rainy or snowy weather.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects
may be blocking the signal. Take a few steps to
the left or right, hold the transmitter higher, and
try again.
Check to determine if battery replacement
is necessary. See “Battery Replacement” under
Keyless Access System Operation on page 73.
Check to make sure that an electronic device
such as a cellular phone or lap top computer is
not causing interference.
If you are still having trouble, see your dealer/
retailer or a qualied technician for service.
Keyless Access System Operation
Your vehicle has a keyless access system
that allows you to lock and unlock your doors,
unlock your hatch/trunk lid and disarm or arm
your theft-deterrent system. The range distance
is as much as 100 feet (30 m) away.
Your vehicle comes standard with two transmitters,
and up to four can be matched to your vehicle. See
“Matching Transmitter(s) to Your Vehicle” later in
this section.
Q(Lock):Press this button to lock the doors.
The light on the door will ash once. If this button
is pressed two times, the doors will lock, the
light will ash and the horn will sound.

Lockout Protection
Your vehicle can be programmed to sound the horn
three times and unlock the driver’s door when both
doors are closed and there is a keyless access
transmitter inside the vehicle. When the driver’s
door is opened, a reminder chime will sound
continuously. The vehicle will remain locked only
when at least one transmitter has been removed
from the vehicle and both doors are closed. See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 234.
Hatch/Trunk
{CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the
hatch/trunk lid open because carbon
monoxide (CO) gas can come into your
vehicle. You can not see or smell CO.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
It can cause unconsciousness and
even death. If you must drive with the
hatch/trunk lid open or if electrical wiring
or other cable connections must pass
through the seal between the body and
the hatch/trunk lid:
Make sure all other windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your heating or
cooling system to its highest speed
and select the control setting that will
force outside air into your vehicle.
SeeDual Automatic Climate Control
System on page 179.
If you have air outlets on or under
the instrument panel, open them all
the way.
SeeEngine Exhaust on page 106.

Arming the System
To arm the system:
Press the lock button on the keyless access
transmitter.
Open the door. Lock the door with the power
door lock switch. The security light should ash.
Remove the keyless access transmitter from
inside the vehicle and close the door. The
security light will stop ashing and stay on.
After 30 seconds, the light should turn off.
The vehicle can be programmed to
automatically lock the doors and arm the
theft-deterrent system when you exit the
vehicle. SeeDIC Vehicle Personalization
on page 234.
Now, if a door or the hatch/trunk is opened without
the keyless access transmitter, the alarm will go off.
Your horn will sound for two minutes, then it will go
off to save battery power. Your vehicle will not start
without a keyless access transmitter present.
The theft-deterrent system will not arm if you
lock the driver’s door with the power door
lock switch after the doors are closed.If your passenger stays in the vehicle when you
leave with the keyless access transmitter, have the
passenger lock the vehicle after the doors are
closed. This way the alarm will not arm, and
your passenger will not set it off.Testing the Alarm
To test the system:
1. Make sure the trunk lid/hatch is latched.
2. Lower the window on the driver’s door.
3. Manually arm the system.
4. Close the doors and wait 30 seconds.
5. Reach through the open window and manually
pull the release lever on the oor.
6. Turn off the alarm by pressing the unlock
button on the transmitter.
If the alarm is inoperative, check to see if the horn
works. If not, check the horn fuse. SeeFuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 419. If the horn works, but
the alarm doesn’t go off, see your dealer/retailer.

Passive Door Locking:This option allows you to
select whether the doors automatically lock during
normal vehicle exit. When the ignition is turned off
and all doors become closed, the vehicle will
determine how many keyless access transmitters
remain in the vehicle interior. If at least one keyless
access transmitter has been removed from the
interior of the vehicle, the doors will lock after
eight seconds.
For example, if there are two keyless access
transmitters in the vehicle and one is removed,
the other will be locked in. The keyless access
transmitter locked in the vehicle can still be used
to start the vehicle or unlock the doors, if needed.
A person approaching the outside of the locked
vehicle without an authorized keyless access
transmitter, however, will not be able to open the
door, even with a transmitter in the vehicle.
You may temporarily disable the passive door
locking feature by pressing the door unlock switch
for three seconds on an open door. Passive door
locking will then remain disabled until a door lock
switch is pressed or until the power mode
transitions from the off power mode.Press the OPTION button until PASSIVE DOOR
LOCKING appears on the display, then press the
RESET button to scroll through the following
modes:
OFF (default)
SILENT
HORN
If you choose OFF, this option will turn off.
If you choose SILENT, the doors will automatically
lock eight seconds after you turn the ignition off,
remove a keyless access transmitter from the
interior of the vehicle, and close both doors.
If you choose HORN, the doors will automatically
lock and the horn will chirp eight seconds after
you turn the ignition off, remove a keyless access
transmitter from the interior of the vehicle, and
close both doors.
If you are parking in a quiet area and do not want
the horn to sound when the doors lock, press
the lock button on the keyless access transmitter
immediately after removing it from the interior
and closing the doors. This will lock the doors and
cancel the passive locking for this ignition cycle.
