Chevrolet 2002 Corvette Owner's Manual page 63

When a new vehicle is delivered, the dealer gives the
first owner a key and a bar coded tag. Both the key
and the tag are attached to a key ring.
One key is used for the
ignition, the driver's
door and all other locks.
The paper tag has a code on it that tells your dealer or a
qualified locksmith how to make an extra key. Keep the
-
bar coded tag in a safe place. If you lose your key,
you'll be able to have a new one made easily using this
tag. If your key doesn't have a tag and you need a new
ignition key, go to your dealer for the correct key code.
NOTICE:
Your vehicle has a number of features that can
help prevent theft. But you can have a lot of
trouble getting into your vehicle if you ever lock
your key inside. You may even have to damage
your vehicle to get in. So be sure you have an
extra key.
If you ever do get locked out of your vehicle,
call Chevrolet Roadside Assistance. See "Roadside
Assistance" in the Index for more information.
