Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Replacing Brake System Parts
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.
Your vehicle was designed and tested with top-quality
GM brake parts. 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 approved 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 f\
or
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. After the battery has been
replaced, refer to the “Remote Function Actuation System”
in the Index to resynchronize your transmitter(s).
Vehicle Storage
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days
or more, remove 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.
Also, for your audio system, see “Theft-Deterrent
Feature” in the Index.
