Chevrolet 2010 Silverado 1500 Automobile User Manual


 
Adjustable Throttle and Brake Pedal
On vehicles with this feature, you can change the
position of the throttle and brake pedals.
No adjustment to the pedals can be made when the
vehicle is in R (Reverse) or while using the cruise
control.
The switch used to adjust
the pedals is located on
the instrument panel
below the climate control
system.
Press the arrow at the bottom of the switch to move the
pedals closer to your body. Press the arrow at the top of
the switch to move the pedals away from your body.
Before you start driving, fully press the brake pedal to
confirm the adjustment is right for you. While driving,
make only small adjustments.
The vehicle may have a memory function which lets
pedal settings be saved and recalled. See Memory
Seat, Mirrors, and Pedals
on page 28
for more
information.
Engine Coolant Heater
The engine heater can provide easier starting and
better fuel economy during engine warm-up in cold
weather conditions at or below 18°C (0°F). Vehicles
with an engine heater should be plugged in at least
four hours before starting. An internal thermostat
in the plug-end of the cord may exist which will prevent
engine coolant heater operation at temperatures
above 18°C (0°F).
If the vehicle has the DURAMAX
®
Diesel engine, see
the DURAMAX
®
Diesel manual for more information.
