5-4 Instruments and Controls
When the windshield wiper lever is
released, additional wipes may
occur depending on how long the
windshield washer had been
activated. SeeWasher Fluid on
page 10‑27 for information on filling
the windshield washer fluid
reservoir.
{WARNING
In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield is
warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.
Clear ice and snow from the wiper
blades before using them. If they
are frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them.
Damaged wiper blades should be
replaced. See Wiper Blade
Replacement on page 10‑33.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wipers. A circuit breaker stops them
until the motor cools.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass
display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass receives
its heading and other information
from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna, StabiliTrak,
and vehicle speed information.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna for
long periods of time with objects
that may interfere with the antenna's
ability to receive a satellite signal.
See Backglass Antenna on
page 7‑13 andSatellite Radio
Antenna on page 7‑14 for the
location of the vehicle's antennas.
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass system
will automatically determine when
the GPS signal is restored and provide a heading again. See
Compass Messages on page 5‑32
for more information on the
messages that may be displayed for
the compass.
Clock
The infotainment system controls
are used to access the time and
date settings through the menu

Power Outlets
The vehicle has two accessory
power outlets; one is located below
the climate control system and the
other is inside the center console
storage. They can be used to plug
in electrical equipment, such as a
cell phone or an MP3 player.
The accessory power outlets do not
work when the key is removed from
the ignition and the driver door is
opened. This helps to preserve the
battery life of the vehicle.

Black plate (6,1)Chevrolet Camaro Owner Manual (Include Mex) - 2012
5-6 Instruments and Controls
Certain power accessory plugs may
not be compatible with the
accessory power outlet and could
overload vehicle and adapter fuses.
If a problem is experienced, see
your dealer.
When adding electrical equipment,
be sure to follow the proper
installation instructions included with
the equipment. SeeAdd-On
Electrical Equipment on page 9‑54.
Notice: Hanging heavy
equipment from the power outlet
can cause damage not covered
by the vehicle warranty. The
power outlets are designed for
accessory power plugs only, such
as cell phone charge cords.Warning Lights,
Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can
signal that something is wrong
before it becomes serious enough
to cause an expensive repair or
replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gauges could
prevent injury.
Warning lights come on when there
could be a problem with a vehicle
function. Some warning lights come
on briefly when the engine is started
to indicate they are working. Gauges can indicate when there
could be a problem with a vehicle
function. Often gauges and warning
lights work together to indicate a
problem with the vehicle.
When one of the warning lights
comes on and stays on while
driving, or when one of the gauges
shows there may be a problem,
check the section that explains what
to do. Follow this manual's advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be costly
and even dangerous.
