If the engine still does not start, and the key appears
to be undamaged, try another key. At this time, you
may also want to check the fuse. See Fuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 5-80. If the engine still does not
start with the other key, your vehicle needs service.
If your vehicle does start, the first key may be faulty.
See your dealer who can have a new key made.
Up to five keys may be programmed for the vehicle.
If you lose or damage your keys, only a GM dealer can
have new keys made.
If you are ever driving and the security light comes on
and stays on, you will be able to restart your engine
if you turn it off. The theft-deterrent system, however,
is not working properly and must be serviced by
your dealer. Your vehicle is not protected by the
theft-deterrent system at this time.
In an emergency, contact Chevrolet Roadside
Assistance. See Roadside Assistance Program
on page 7-6.

New Vehicle Break-In

Notice: Your vehicle does not need an elaborate
break-in. But it will perform better in the long run if
you follow these guidelines:
Do not drive at any one speed, fast or slow,
for the first 500 miles (805 km). Do not make
full-throttle starts.
Avoid making hard stops for the first
200 miles (322 km) or so. During this time your
new brake linings are not yet broken in. Hard
stops with new linings can mean premature
wear and earlier replacement. Follow this
breaking-in guideline every time you get
new brake linings.
Do not tow a trailer during break-in. See Towing
a Trailer on page 4-36 for more information.
