navigation CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2007 6.G Owners Manual

To use the system, shift from PARK (P) position
to SPORT MODE (S) while stopped and with the
engine running, or from DRIVE (D) with the vehicle
moving. When accelerating your vehicle from a stop
in snowy and icy conditions, you may want to shift
to second (2) or third (3) gear. A higher gear allows
you to gain more traction on slippery surfaces. If the
traction control is active, upshifts are delayed to
increase your control of the vehicle. SeeTraction
Control System (TCS) on page 281.
While the Manual Paddle Shift gear selection
system is active, the transmission will automatically
downshift through the gears as the vehicle slows.
The transmission will select second gear as the
vehicle stops. From a stop, the vehicle will start
from and hold second (2) gear unless the driver
manually paddle shifts into a different gear or
selects DRIVE (D). The driver can select rst (1)
gear for maximum acceleration from a stop.When using the Manual
Paddle Shift Feature
while in the SPORT
MODE (S), the current
gear will be displayed in
the Driver Information
(DIC), or the Head-Up
Display (HUD), if the
vehicle has either of
these features.
If your vehicle has a Navigation system, see
“Head-Up Display (HUD)” in the Index of
the navigation manual.
The Manual Paddle Shift system will not allow
either an up-shift or a down-shift if the vehicle
speed is too fast or too slow, nor will it allow a
start from Fourth (4) or higher gear
If up-shifting does not occur when needed, the
vehicle speed will be limited to protect the engine.
The transmission will also automatically
down-shift as the vehicle slows down and
comes to a stop.

indicate that the vehicle’s best performance
level has been reached to shift the transmission
into the next higher gear. An arrow pointing up

Navigation/Radio System
Your vehicle may have a navigation radio system.
The navigation system has built-in features
intended to minimize driver distraction. Technology
alone, no matter how advanced, can never
replace your own judgment. See the Navigation
System manual for some tips to help you
reduce distractions while driving.
Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCK®is designed to discourage theft
of your vehicle’s radio. The feature works
automatically by learning a portion of the
Vehicle Identication Number (VIN). If the radio
is moved to a different vehicle, it will not operate
and LOCKED will appear on the display.
With THEFTLOCK
®activated, the radio will not
operate if stolen.
Your radio has a blinking indicator light located
on the upper left side of the radio. The indicator
light is used to show that the theft-deterrent feature
mode is set. The blinking indicator light will only
ash when the ignition is in the off position.
Audio Steering Wheel Controls
If your vehicle has this
feature, some audio
controls can be adjusted
at the steering wheel.
They include the
following:
xw:Press the downxor upwarrow to go to
the previous or to the next radio station and stay
there. The radio only seeks stations with a strong
signal that are in the selected band.
To scan stations, press and hold either the down
x
or upwarrow for two seconds until SCAN displays
and a beep sounds. The radio goes to a station,
plays for a few seconds, then goes to the next
station. Press either the down
xor upwarrow
again to stop scanning.
