Vehicle Security - Chevrolet 2013 Corvette Owner's Manual

2-12 Keys, Doors, and Windows
Do not use the
emergency trunk release handle
as a tie-down or anchor point
when securing items in the trunk
as it could damage the handle.
The emergency trunk release
handle is only intended to aid a
person trapped in a latched trunk,
enabling them to open the trunk
from the inside.
There is a glow-in-the-dark
emergency trunk release handle
located on the rear wall of the trunk
below the latch. This handle will
glow following exposure to light. Pull
the release handle down to open
the trunk from the inside.

This vehicle has theft-deterrent
features; however, they do not make
the vehicle impossible to steal.
Vehicle Alarm System

Arming the System
To arm the system, press
RKE transmitter, or open the door
and lock the door with the power
door lock switch. The security light
should flash. Remove the RKE
transmitter from inside the vehicle
and close the door. The security
light stops flashing and stays on.
After 30 seconds, the light should
turn off.
The vehicle can be programmed to
automatically lock the doors and
arm the theft-deterrent system when
you exit the vehicle. See Vehicle
Personalization on page 5 52.
If a door or the hatch/trunk is
opened without using the RKE
transmitter, the alarm goes off. The
horn sounds for two minutes, then
goes off to save battery power. The
vehicle will not start without a RKE
transmitter present.
