To Resume a Set Speed
Suppose you set your Cruise Control at a
desired speed and then you apply the
brake or clutch pedal. This, of course,
shuts
off the Cruise Control. But you
don’t need to reset
it. Once you’re going
about
25 mph (40 km/h) or more, you ca~
move the Cruise Control switch to
“WA” (Resume/Accelerate) for about ha1
a second.
You’ll go right back up to your chosen
speed and stay there.

Control
There are two ways to go to a higher
speed. Here’s the first:
1. Use the accelerator pedal to get to the
higher speed.
2. Push the button at the end of the lever,
then release the button and the
accelerator pedal. You’ll
now cruise at
the higher speed.
Here’s the second way to go to a higher
speed:
1. Move the Cruise switch to WA.”
Hold it there until you get up to the
speed you want, and then release the
switch.
To increase your speed in very small
amounts, move the switch to
“WA”
for less than half a second and then
release it. Each time you do this, your
vehicle will go about one mph
(1.6 km/h) faster.
To Reduce Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to reduce your speed
while using cruise control:
1.
2.
Push in the button at the end of the
lever until you reach the lower speed
you want, then release it.
To slow down in very small amounts,
push the button for less than half a
second. Each time you do this, you’ll
go one mph
(1.6 km/h) slower.

Brake System Warning Light
Your Corvette’s hydraulic brake system
is divided into two parts. If one part isn’t
working, the other part can still work and
stop you. For good braking, though, you
need both parts working well.
This light should come on as you start thc
vehicle. If it doesn’t come on then, have
it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if
there’s a problem. If this warning light
stays on, there could be
a brake problem.
Have your brake system inspected right
away.
If the light comes on while you are
driving, pull
off the road and stop
carefully. You may notice that the pedal
is harder to push. Or, the pedal may go

driving, your Corvette needs service. If
the regular brake system warning light
isn’t on, you still have brakes, but you
don’t have anti-lock brakes.
If the regular

don’t have anti-lock brakes and there’s a
problem with your regular brakes. See

If you need to add more coolant, add the
proper mix at
the coolant recovery tank,
but only when your engine is cool. If the
tank is very low or empty, also add
coolant to the coolant high fill reservoir.
See “Engine Overheating”
in the Index
for information.

Add coolant mix at the recovery tank, but
be careful not to spill it.
NOTICE:
You can be burned if you spill coolant
on hot engine parts. Coolant contains
ethylene glycol, and it will burn if the
engine parts are hot enough. Don’t
spill coolant on a hot engine.
For complete drain, flush and refill
of
the engine, contact your Chevrolet
jealer or the procedure may be found in
3 Chevrolet Corvette Service Manual. To
purchase a service manual, see “Service
Publications” in the Index.
Thermostat
Engine coolant temperature is controlled
by a thermostat in
the engine coolant
system. The thermostat stops the flow of
coolant through the radiator until the
coolant reaches a preset temperature.
When you replace your thermostat, an
AC@ thermostat is recommended.
