24 Driving and Operating
10. Press SEL.
In this example, the vehicle is ready
to launch at 3500 RPM and 10%
wheel slip.
Line Lock
{Warning
The vehicle may move
unexpectedly when using Line
Lock, which could cause injury to
persons or property located
nearby. Only use Line Lock on a
closed track where there is a
large clear area around all sides
of the vehicle. Be ready to apply
the brakes immediately if the
vehicle begins to move. Do not
use Line Lock in an area that is
accessible to the public or where
people or property are located
near the vehicle.
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(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
is not covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not attempt to shift
when the drive wheels do not
have traction.
Line Lock allows for locking the front
brakes independently of the rear
brakes. This allows the rear tires to
spin when the throttle is applied.
To enter Line Lock, all of these
conditions must be met:
. The vehicle must be in
Track Mode.
. Performance Traction
Management (PTM) Mode must
be enabled. For convertibles,
Competitive Driving Mode must
be enabled.
. The steering wheel must be
straight.
. The driver door must be closed.
. The vehicle must be in D (Drive)
for an automatic transmission or
1 (First) gear for a manual
transmission.

Driving and Operating 27
{Warning
It is dangerous to get out of the
vehicle if the shift lever is not fully
in P (Park) with the parking brake
firmly set. The vehicle can roll.
Do not leave the vehicle when the
engine is running. If you have left
the engine running, the vehicle
can move suddenly. You or others
could be injured. To be sure the
vehicle will not move, even when
you are on fairly level ground,
always set the parking brake and
move the shift lever to P (Park).
Make sure the shift lever is fully in
P (Park) before starting the engine.
The vehicle has an automatic
transmission shift lock control
system. The regular brake must be
fully applied first and then the shift
lever button must be pressed before
shifting from P (Park) when the
ignition is in on. If you cannot shift
out of P (Park), ease pressure on
the shift lever, then push the shift
lever all the way into P (Park) as you maintain brake application.
Then press the shift lever button
and move the shift lever into
another gear.
R :
Use this gear to back up.
Caution
Shifting to R (Reverse) while the
vehicle is moving forward could
damage the transmission. The
repairs would not be covered by
the vehicle warranty. Shift to
R (Reverse) only after the vehicle
is stopped.
N : In this position, the engine does
not connect with the wheels. To
restart the engine when the vehicle
is already moving, use
N (Neutral) only.
{Warning
Shifting into a drive gear while the
engine is running at high speed is
dangerous. Unless your foot is
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
firmly on the brake pedal, the
vehicle could move very rapidly.
You could lose control and hit
people or objects. Do not shift
into a drive gear while the engine
is running at high speed.
Caution
Shifting out of P (Park) or
N (Neutral) with the engine
running at high speed may
damage the transmission. The
repairs would not be covered by
the vehicle warranty. Be sure the
engine is not running at high
speed when shifting the vehicle.
D : This position is for normal
driving. If more power is needed for
passing, press the accelerator
pedal down.

Vehicle Care 37
{Warning
Operating the engine with the air
cleaner/filter off can cause you or
others to be burned. The air
cleaner not only cleans the air; it
helps to stop flames if the engine
backfires. Use caution when
working on the engine and do not
drive with the air cleaner/filter off.
Caution
If the air cleaner/filter is off, dirt
can easily get into the engine,
which could damage it. Always
have the air cleaner/filter in place
when driving.
Cooling System
The cooling system allows the
engine to maintain the correct
working temperature.
1. Engine Coolant Surge Tankand Pressure Cap
2. Engine Cooling Fan (Out of View)
{Warning
An underhood electric fan can
start up even when the engine is
not running and can cause injury.
Keep hands, clothing, and tools
away from any underhood
electric fan.
{Warning
Do not touch heater or radiator
hoses, or other engine parts.
They can be very hot and can
burn you. Do not run the engine if
there is a leak; all coolant could
leak out. That could cause an
engine fire and can burn you. Fix
any leak before driving the
vehicle.
Caution
Do not use anything other than a
mix of DEX-COOL coolant that
meets GM Standard
GMW3420 and clean, drinkable
water. Anything else can cause
damage to the vehicle’ s engine
cooling system and vehicle, which
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty.

Vehicle Care 39
Caution (Continued)
(20 °F). Always store high
performance summer tires
indoors and at temperatures
above−7 °C (20 °F) when not in
use. If the tires have been
subjected to −7 °C (20 °F) or less,
let them warm up in a heated
space to at least 5 °C (40 °F) for
24 hours or more before being
installed or driving a vehicle on
which they are installed. Do not
apply heat or blow heated air
directly on the tires. Always
inspect tires before use. See “Tire
Inspection” in the owner ’s
manual.
Tire Pressure for
High-Speed Operation
{Warning
Driving at high speeds, 160 km/h
(100 mph) or higher, puts
additional strain on tires.
Sustained high-speed driving
causes excessive heat buildup
and can cause sudden tire failure.
This could cause a crash, and
you or others could be killed.
Some high-speed rated tires
require inflation pressure
adjustment for high-speed
operation. When speed limits and
road conditions allow the vehicle
to be driven at high speeds, make
sure the tires are rated for
high-speed operation, are in
excellent condition, and are set to
the correct cold tire inflation
pressure for the vehicle load. ZL1 and SS with the 1LE package
are equipped with 285/30ZR20
(95Y) and 305/30ZR20 (99Y) or
305/30ZR19 (98Y) and 325/30ZR19
(101Y) size tires that are capable of
high-speed use. Make sure vehicles
with this size tires are inflated to
300 kPa (44 psi) before operating
the vehicle at sustained high-speed
operation at speeds over 160 km/h
(100 mph).
LS/LT with the 1LE package is
equipped with 245/40ZR20 95Y and
275/35ZR20 98Y size tires that are
capable of high-speed use. Make
sure vehicles with this size tires are
inflated to 280 kPa (41 psi) before
operating the vehicle at sustained
high-speed operation at speeds
over 160 km/h (100 mph).
Return the tires to the
recommended cold tire inflation
pressure when high-speed driving
has ended. See
“Vehicle Load
Limits” and“Tire Pressure” in the
owner ’s manual.
