7-12 Infotainment System
{Caution
Do not apply aftermarket glass
tinting with metallic film. The
metallic film in some tinting
materials will interfere with or
distort the incoming radio
reception. Any damage caused to
the backglass antenna due to
metallic tinting materials will not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
Diversity Antenna System
For vehicles with convertible tops,
the AM-FM antenna is a hidden
self-tuning system, and is in the rear
spoiler. It optimizes the AM and FM
signals relative to the vehicle's
position and radio station source.No maintenance or adjustments are
needed. Do not place loads on the
spoiler. If the spoiler is replaced, be
sure it is replaced with the correct
GM parts for the best AM and FM
reception.
Multi-Band Antenna
The roof antenna is for OnStar and
GPS (Global Positioning System).
Keep clear of obstructions for clear
reception. If the vehicle has a
sunroof, and it is open, reception
can also be affected.
Audio Players
CD Player
The CD player can play audio CDs
and MP3 CDs.
The CD player will not play 8 cm
(3 in) CDs.
Care of CDs
Sound quality can be reduced due
to disc quality, recording method,
quality of the music recorded, and
how the disc has been handled.
Handle discs carefully and store
them in their original cases or other
protective cases away from direct
sunlight and dust. If the bottom
surface of a disc is damaged, the
disc may not play properly or at all.
Do not touch the bottom surface of
a disc while handling it; this could
damage the surface. Pick up discs
by grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.

Driving and Operating 9-41
Competitive Driving Mode
Competitive Driving Mode,
Performance Traction Management
(PTM), and Launch Control are
systems designed to allow
increased performance while
accelerating and/or cornering. This
is accomplished by regulating and
optimizing the engine, brakes, and
suspension performance. These
modes are for use at a closed
course race track and are not
intended for use on public roads.
They will not compensate for a
driver’s inexperience or lack of
familiarity with the race track.
Drivers who prefer to allow the
system to have more control of the
engine, brakes, and suspension are
advised to turn the normal TCS and
StabiliTrak systems on.{Caution
Attempting to shift when the drive
wheels are spinning and do not
have traction may cause damage
to the transmission. Damage
caused by misuse of the vehicle
is not covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not attempt to shift
when the drive wheels do not
have traction.
Competitive Driving Mode (SS
and ZL1 Convertible Only)
Competitive Driving Mode allows full
engine power while the StabiliTrak
system helps maintain directional
control of the vehicle by selective
brake application. In this mode, TCS
is off and Launch Control is
available. Adjust your driving style
to account for the available engine
power. See “Launch Control (V8
with Manual Transmissions except
Z/28)” later in this section.
These lights are on when the
vehicle is in the Competitive
Driving Mode.
This optional handling mode can be
selected by quickly pressing the
TCS/StabiliTrak button on the
console two times. The appropriate
message displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See Ride
Control System Messages on
page 5-38.

Vehicle Care 10-103
.Do not use chrome cleaners.
.Do not use cleaners that are not
intended for automotive use.
.Use a nonabrasive wax on the
vehicle after washing to protect

Hood Air Extractor
ZL1
SS, 1LE Shown, Z/28 Similar
It is not recommended that the air
extractor on the ZL1, SS, 1LE, and
Z/28 Performance Packages be
waxed, as it will change the gloss
level of the surface. In addition, care
must be used when waxing around
the air extractor. If a small amount
of wax is applied to the extractor it
can create an irregular appearance
in the surface of the panel. If wax,
debris, or other materials create
stains on the air extractor, see your
dealer for the recommended
cleaner. The air extractor may have vent
screens in the openings. Keep
leaves or other debris out of the
vent screens.
{Caution
Pushing on the vent screens
could damage them. Do not push
on the screens when clearing.
There is a water deflector on the
underside of the air extractor. Do
not remove it.
Convertible Top Care
Frequently hand wash convertible
tops with mild car wash soap. Never
use a stiff brush, steam, bleach,
or aggressive cleaners.
If necessary, a soft brush can be
used to remove dirt. When finished
cleaning, thoroughly rinse the fabric.
Avoid automatic car washes with
overhead brushes or very high
pressure sprays as they can cause
damage and leaking.
