NOTICE:
Your modern Chevrolet doesn’t need an
elaborate “break-in.” But it will perform better
in the long run if you follow these guidelines:
Keep your speed at 55 mph (88 km/h) or
less for the first
500 miles (804 km).
Don’t drive at any one speed -- fast or slow
-- for the first 500 miles (804 km). Don’t
make full-throttle starts.
200 miles (322 km) or so. During this time
your new brake linings aren’t yet broken
in. Hard stops with new linings
can mean
premature wear and earlier replacement.
Follow this “breaking-in’’ guideline every
Avoid making hard stops for the first
I
time you get new brake linings. With
the ignition key in the ignition switch, you can turn
the switch to five positions:
ACC
(A): Position in which you can operate your
electrical power accessories. Press in the ignition switch
as you
turn the top of it toward you.
LOCK (B): The only position in which you can remove
the key. This locks your steering wheel, ignition and
automatic transmission.

switch can’t be turned to
LOCK unless the shift lever is
in the PARK (P) position.
OFF (C): Unlocks the steering wheel, ignition and
automatic transmission, but does not send electrical
power to any accessories. Use this position if your
vehicle must be pushed or towed. A warning tone will
sound if you open the driver’s door when the ignition is
in
OFF and the key is in the ignition.
RUN (D): Position to which the switch returns after you
start your engine and release the switch. The switch
stays in the
RUN position when the engine is running.
But even when the engine is not running, you can use
RUN to operate your electrical power accessories and to
display some instrument panel warning and indicator
lights.
START (E): Starts the engine. When the engine starts,
release the key. The ignition switch
will return to RUN
for normal driving.
Note that even if the engine is not running, ACC and
RUN allow you to operate your electrical accessories,
such as the radio and ventilation fan.
Key Release Button: If you have a manual
transmission, your ignition lock has a key release button.
You must press the button before you can take your key
out
of the ignition lock.

NOTICE:
If your key seems stuck in LOCK and you can’t
turn
it, be sure it is all the way in. If it is, then
turn the steering wheel left and right while you
turn the key hard. But turn the key
only with
your hand. Using a tool to force
it could break
the key or the ignition switch.
If none of this
works, then your vehicle needs service. If you have
power door locks, your vehicle has a feature
called Retained Accessory Power (RAP). With RAP
your power door locks, electric mirrors, power
windows, audio system and remote hatch release will
continue to work up to
10 minutes after the ignition key
is turned to
OFF and neither door is opened.
If a door is opened, the audio system and power
windows will shut
off. The power door locks, electric
mirrors and remote hatch release will work until you
shut the door. Once you have shut the door, these
accessories will continue to work for approximately
35 seconds. After this time you will not be able to use
these accessories until the next time you open a door or
turn on the ignition.

If the ASR system is limiting wheel spin when you
press the button, the system won’t turn
off right away.
It will wait until there’s
no longer a current need to limit
wheel spin.
You can turn the system
back on at any time by
pressing the button again. The
ASR OFF warning
light should go off.
If your car is equipped with P245bOZR16 tires, the
ASR system will automatically turn off at speeds above
108 mph (174 Mh). (The ASR OFF warning light
will not come
on.) When the vehicle speed drops below
103 mph (166 kmh) the system will automatically come
on again.
Braking in Emergencies
Use your anti-lock braking system when you need to.
With anti-lock, you can steer and brake at the same
time. In many emergencies, steering can help you more
than even the very best braking.

Power Steering
If you lose power steering assist because the engine
stops or
the system is not functioning, you can steer but
it will take much more effort.

How To Check Power Steering Fluid
When the engine compartment is cool, unscrew the cap
and wipe the dipstick with a clean rag. Replace the cap
and completely tighten it. Then remove the cap again
and
look at the fluid level on the dipstick.
The level should be at the
FULL COLD mark. Add
enough fluid to bring the level up to the mark.
A fluid loss in this system could indicate a problem.
Have the system inspected and repaired.
\'
When the engine compartment is hot, the level
should be at the
H or HOT mark.
When the engine compartment is cool, the level
should be at the
C or FULL COLD mark.
