Example of Eight Dip Switches with Three Positions The panel of switches might not appear exactly as
they do in the examples above, but they should be
similar.
The switch positions on the hand-held transmitter
could be labeled, as follows:
.A switch in the up position could be labeled as
“Up,” “+,” or“On.”
.A switch in the down position could be labeled
as “Down,” “−,” or“Off.”
.A switch in the middle position could be labeled
as “Middle,” “0,” or“Neutral.” 3. Write down the eight to 12 switch settings from left
to right as follows:
.When a switch is in the up position, write “Left.”
.When a switch is in the down position, write
“Right.”
.If a switch is set between the up and down
position, write “Middle.”
The switch settings written down in Step 3 now
become the button strokes to be entered into
the Universal Home Remote in Step 5. Be sure
to enter the switch settings written down in
Step 3, in order from left to right, into the
Universal Home Remote, when completing
Step 5.
4. From inside the vehicle, first firmly press all three buttons at the same time for about
three seconds. Release the buttons to put the

You may notice a slight change in engine performance
when the air-conditioning compressor shuts off and
turns on again. This is normal. The system is designed
to make adjustments to help with fuel economy while
still maintaining the selected temperature.
On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside air
escape; then close them. This helps to reduce the time
it takes for the vehicle to cool down. It also helps the
system to operate more efficiently.
For quick cool down on hot days press the AUTO
button and adjust the temperature to a cool, comfortable
setting. To achieve maximum cool down, do the
following: 1. Select
Hmode.
2. Press
?.
3. Select the a/c on.
4. Select the coolest temperature.
5. Select the highest fan speed. Using these settings together for long periods of time
may cause the air inside of your vehicle to become too
dry. To prevent this from happening, after the air in the
vehicle has cooled, turn the recirculation mode off.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from the
air, so a small amount of water might drip under the
vehicle while idling or after turning off the engine.
This is normal.
?
(Recirculation) : Press to turn the recirculation
mode on or off. An indicator light comes on to show
that recirculation is on. This mode prevents outside air
from entering your vehicle. It can be used to prevent
outside air and odors from entering your vehicle and
to help cool the air inside your vehicle more quickly.
Recirculation mode is not available in defrost or
defog mode.

Speedometer and Odometer
The speedometer shows the speed in either kilometers
per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mph). For more
information see “Personal Options” underDIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 4‑71.
To read the odometer with the ignition off, turn on the
parking lamps.
If the vehicle needs a new odometer installed, the
mileage total of the new odometer will be set to the
original kilometers (miles) of the old odometer. See your
dealer/retailer if the odometer must be replaced in the
vehicle.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in thousands
of revolutions per minute (rpm).
Notice: Fuel shuts off at about 6500 rpm for
the base model, 7000 rpm for the Z06 model, and
6600 rpm for the ZR1 model. If the vehicle continues
to be driven at the fuel shut off rpm, the engine
could be damaged. Be sure to operate the vehicle
below the fuel shut off rpm or reduce the vehicle's
rpm quickly when the fuel shuts off.
Safety Belt Reminders
Safety Belt Reminder Light
When the engine is started, a chime sounds for several
seconds to remind a driver to fasten the safety belt,
unless the driver safety belt is already buckled.
The safety belt light
comes on and stays on
for several seconds, then
flashes for several more.
This chime and light are repeated if the driver remains
unbuckled and the vehicle is in motion. If the driver
safety belt is already buckled, neither the chime nor
the light comes on.
4-32

If none of the above have made the light turn off, your
dealer/retailer can check the vehicle. The dealer/retailer
has the proper test equipment and diagnostic tools to fix
any mechanical or electrical problems that might have
developed.
Emissions Inspection and Maintenance
Programs
Some state/provincial and local governments have
or might begin programs to inspect the emission
control equipment on the vehicle. Failure to pass this
inspection could prevent getting a vehicle registration.
Here are some things to know to help the vehicle pass
an inspection:
.The vehicle will not pass this inspection if the
check engine light is on with the engine running.
To perform a check engine light bulb check with
the keyless ignition, make sure the transmitter fob
is in the passenger compartment. See Ignition
Positions
on page 3‑23. Press the bottom of the
Acc. button on the instrument panel and hold the button down for five seconds. The instrument
panel, including the check engine light, will light up
and the ignition will be on, but the engine will not
start
—press the bottom of the Acc. button only
briefly, less than five seconds, the accessory
power mode will be turned on, but not the ignition.
After the bulb check, press and release the Acc.
button again to turn the ignition off and avoid
draining the vehicle's battery.
.The vehicle will not pass this inspection if the
OBD II (on-board diagnostic) system determines
that critical emission control systems have not
been completely diagnosed by the system.
The vehicle would be considered not ready for
inspection. This can happen if the battery has
recently been replaced or if the battery has run
down. The diagnostic system is designed to
evaluate critical emission control systems during
normal driving. This can take several days of
routine driving. If this has been done and the
vehicle still does not pass the inspection for lack
of OBD II system readiness, your dealer/retailer
can prepare the vehicle for inspection.

Engine Oil Pressure Gauge
United StatesCanada
United States—Z06 and
ZR1 Models Canada —Z06 and ZR1
Models
{WARNING:
Do not keep driving if the oil pressure is low.
The engine can become so hot that it catches fire.
Someone could be burned. Check the oil as soon
as possible and have the vehicle serviced.
Notice: Lack of proper engine oil maintenance
can damage the engine. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty. Always follow the
maintenance schedule in this manual for changing
engine oil.
The engine oil pressure gauge shows the engine
oil pressure in psi (pounds per square inch) or
kPa (kilopascals) when the engine is running.
Oil pressure should be 140 to 550 kPa (20 to 80 psi).
In certain situations such as long, extended idles on
hot days, it could read as low as 40 kPa (6 psi) and still
be considered normal. It may vary with engine speed,
outside temperature and oil viscosity, but readings
above the shaded area show the normal operating
range. Readings in the shaded area tell you that the
engine is low on oil, or that you might have some
other oil problem. See Engine Oil on page 6‑19.
