Z06 Features
Checking Engine Oil
Z06 models are equipped with a high
performance dry sump engine lubrica-
tion system. This system operates differ-
ently than a standard engine lubrication
system.
You should only check your oil level
after the engine has been thoroughly
warmed up and then shut off for at least
five minutes. This ensures that the oil
level reading obtained will be accurate.
Z06 models also require a special pro-
cedure for changing the engine oil and
filter; refer to your Owner Manual.
Jump Starting the Battery
The battery of your Z06 is located in the
rear of the vehicle. You do not need
access to the battery for jump starting.
There are remote positive (+) and nega-
tive (–) terminals located under the hood
for this purpose. Refer to your Owner
Manual for the locations of the terminals.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.
Note: Do not read the oil level after
extended periods of vehicle inactivity,
as the level indicated will not be accu-
rate and may falsely indicate a low level
condition. Any oil added due to this
method of reading may cause the
engine to be over-filled and can lead to
engine damage.
Note: Improper jump starting could
result in costly damage to your vehicle
that would not be covered by your war-
ranty. Be sure to follow all of the steps
in your Owner Manual to safely and
properly jump start your vehicle.
