CAR WASH GUIDELINES
LOW GROUND CLEARANCE/FRONT CURBVIEW CAMERAF
Automatic car washes are not recommended. They may cause damage to the v\
ehicle, wheels or convertible topF. To avoid possible damage, use a touchless car wash.
To avoid damaging the clear coat on visible exterior carbon fiber, nev\
er polish any exposed carbon fiber body parts with polish compound.
The low ground clearance of the Corvette aids its aerodynamic efficien\
cy. As a result, the lower part of the front fascia (bumper) may contact a parking block or\
curb if the vehicle is parked too closely. Use care when parking to avoid damage.
At speeds slower than 5 mph, the Front CurbView CameraF displays a front, top-down view and left- and right-front view images of the area in front of the v\
ehicle.
Press the Camera icon on the infotainment screen to activate the front cameras.
