Chkck the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
See your Chevrolet dealer or a qualified technician
for service.
Changes or modifications to this system by anyone other

authorization to use this equipment.
Operation
You don’t have to do anything for PKE to work when
the passive feature is on. Just move toward your
vehicle with the
PKE transmitter, and the system will
automatically disarm your theft-deterrent system and
unlock the doors. If it’s dark enough outside, your
interior lamps will come on.
If you move out of range, the
PKE system will:
1. Lock the doors after five seconds.
2. Arm the theft-deterrent system.
3. Sound the horn to let you know the doors are locked.
4. Turn off the interior lamps.
You can also use the buttons on the transmitter. Press
DOOR to open the passenger’s door or HATCH to open
the hatch. The HATCH button will only work when the
ignition is off.
The system has a feature that makes it difficult for you
to lock your keys
in your vehicle. If you leave your keys
in the ignition and lock the doors,
the system will unlock
the doors as soon as they are closed. If you leave the
keys in the ignition-and move away with the transmitter,
the doors still will not lock. You should notice that the
horn doesn’t sound and return to get your keys.

Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another
transmitter from unlocking your vehicle. If a transmitter
is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through
your dealer. Remember to bring any remaining
transmitters with you when you go to your dealer. When
the dealer matches the replacement transmitter to your
vehicle, any remaining transmitters must
also be
matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the lost
transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle
can have only three transmitters matched to it.
To match transmitters to your vehicle:
1. Move all transmitters out of range.
2. Turn the ignition key on.
3. Push TRIP OD0 on the Driver Information Center
twice.
4. Within five seconds, press and hold FUEL INFO
until the PASSIVE KEYLESS ENTRY light
comes on.
5. Turn the ignition off, but leave the key in the
ignition. The PASSIVE KEYLESS ENTRY light
should begin to flash to show the system is in
programming mode.
6. Bring one transmitter into range. The light will stop
flashing and stay on to show that the code is stored.
7. Move the transmitter out of range. The light should
start flashing again.
8. Repeat Steps 6 and 7 with each additional
The programming mode will shut
off if
transmitter.
0 You
don’t program any transmitters for two minutes.
0 You take the key out of the ignition or turn the
ignition on.
0 You have programmed three transmitters.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your key chain
transmitter should last about
18 months.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won’t
work at the normal range in any location. If you have to
get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it’s probably time to change the battery.

The braking system on a modern vehicle is complex.
Its many parts have to be of top quality and work well
together if the vehicle is to have really good braking.
Vehicles we design and test have top-quality GM brake
parts in them, as your Corvette does when it
is new.
When you replace parts of your braking system
-- for
example, when your brake linings wear down and you
have to have new ones put in
-- be sure you get new
genuine GM replacement parts. If you don’t, your
brakes may no longer work properly. For example, if
someone puts in brake linings that are wrong for your
vehicle, the balance between your front and rear brakes
can change
-- for the worse. The braking performance
you’ve come to expect can change in many other ways if
someone puts in the wrong replacement brake parts.
Battery
Every new Corvette has a Delco Freedom’ battery. You
never have to add water to one of these. When it’s time
for a new battery, we recommend a Delco Freedom
battery. Get one that has the replacement number shown
on the original battery’s label. For battery replacement,
see your dealer
or the Corvette Service Manual. To
purchase a service manual, see “Service and Owner
Publications” in the Index.
Vehicle Storage
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days
or more, take
off the black, negative (-) cable from
the battery. This will help keep your battery from
running down.
Batteries have acid that can burn you and gas
that can explode. You can be badly hurt if
you
aren’t careful. See “Jump Starting” in the Index
for tips on working around a battery without getting hurt.
Contact your dealer to learn how to prepare your vehicle
for longer storage periods.
