Electric Brake Boost - Chevrolet Corvette 2023 Owner's Manual

Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-MidEast-16287460) -
2023 - CRC - 4/26/22
Vehicle is in R (Reverse)
Paddles are released separately
If the vehicle was in Temporary Manual
Paddle Shift mode before entering Double
Paddle Declutch, the vehicle will return to
D (Drive) with automatic shifting upon
exiting Double Paddle Declutch.
Rapid Exit : This is intended for use at a
closed course race track and not on public
roads. Engine power is reapplied to the
wheels quickly to support spirited driving.
The rate of launch is dependent on how
much the accelerator pedal is pressed when
the paddles are released. The further the
accelerator pedal is pressed, the greater the
rate of launch. Tire spin may occur if the
Traction Control System (TCS) is turned off
while performing a Rapid Exit. Rapid Exit
launch occurs when all of the following
conditions are met:
Vehicle speed is below 10 km/h (6 mph)
Vehicle is in D (Drive) or
M (Manual Mode)
Both paddles are released at the
same time
With the accelerator fully pressed and the
engine at the rev limiter, peak performance
only occurs if the paddles are released
within a short period of time after reaching
the rev limit (i.e., a few seconds).
Manual Launch (Z06 model only) : While
the vehicle is in Double Paddle Declutch,
Manual Launch can be activated to gain
more precise control over the engine speed
to prepare for a Standard or Rapid Exit. To
activate this feature, first enter Double
Paddle Declutch, then release and repull
either the + paddle or paddle while
keeping the opposite paddle held. The
Performance Transmission Active Light will
illuminate in the gauge cluster to indicate
that Manual Launch has been activated. See
Performance Transmission Active 0 88.
When Manual Launch is active, the engine
will respond differently when the accelerator
pedal is pressed compared to normal Double
Paddle Declutch. The accelerator pedal must
be pressed further to increase the engine
rpm and a lower engine rpm limit will be
applied. This feature also provides faster
engine response during a Rapid Exit if any
of the Performance Traction Management
(PTM) modes or Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) Off has been selected. To exit Manual
Launch, release both the + paddle and
Driving and Operating
paddle. The vehicle will also exit Double
Paddle Declutch and the engine will
reconnect to the wheels. A Standard Exit or
Rapid Exit will be performed based on the
same conditions listed previously.
Warning
When exiting Double Paddle Declutch, the
vehicle may move rapidly. You could lose
control and cause a crash with nearby
people or objects. Be ready to release the
accelerator pedal or apply the brakes
immediately if the vehicle moves too
quickly. Do not use the Double Paddle
Declutch when people or objects are near.
Brakes

Electric Brake Boost

Vehicles equipped with electric brake boost
have hydraulic brake circuits that are
electronically controlled when the brake
pedal is applied during normal operation.
The system performs routine tests and turns
off within a few minutes after the vehicle is
turned off. Noise may be heard during this
time. If the brake pedal is pressed during
