Chevrolet 2008 Corvette Automobile User Manual


 
NO FOB - OFF OR RUN?
This message displays when the keyless access
transmitter is not detected inside the vehicle while you
are trying to turn the ignition off. Your vehicle may be
near a strong radio antenna signal causing the keyless
access system to be jammed. The vehicle will remain in
ACCESSORY until the vehicle is turned off or is restarted,
or five minutes has expired. If you turn the ignition off and
you cannot find the keyless access transmitter, you will
not be able to restart the vehicle. The keyless access
transmitter needs to be inside of the vehicle in order for
the vehicle to start. See Starting the Engine on page 2-23
for more information.
OPTIONS UNAVAILABLE
This message displays for a few seconds if a keyless
access transmitter that is not labelled 1 or 2 is used and
you try to personalize the features on your vehicle by
pressing the OPTION button. The personalization system
will not recognize the transmitter and the DIC will not
display the current driver number or the menus used to
set personalizations. The personalization features will
then be set to the default states. See DIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 3-72 for more information.
PRESS BRAKE TO START ENGINE
(Automatic Transmission Only)
This message displays if you try to start the engine
by pressing the keyless ignition start button without
having the brake pressed. The brake needs to be
pressed when starting the engine. See Ignition
Positions on page 2-22 for more information.
REDUCED ENGINE POWER
If this message displays and the check engine light
comes on, a noticeable reduction in the vehicle’s
performance may occur. If the REDUCED ENGINE
POWER message is displayed, but there is no
reduction in performance, proceed to your destination.
The performance may be reduced the next time the
vehicle is driven.
The vehicle may be driven at a reduced speed while the
REDUCED ENGINE POWER message is displayed,
but acceleration and speed may be reduced. Anytime
the check engine light stays on, the vehicle should
be taken to your dealer/retailer as soon as possible
for diagnosis and repair. See Malfunction Indicator
Lamp on page 3-43 for more information.
