Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
12470550) - 2020 - CRC - 4/23/20
Driving and Operating 175
or the Head-Up Display (HUD),
if equipped. See Head-Up Display
(HUD) 0 110.
When accelerating the vehicle from
a stop in snowy and icy conditions,
shifting to 2 (Second) gear, when
available, will allow the vehicle to
gain more traction.
The Manual Paddle Shift system
can be deactivated by pulling the
D (Drive) switch on the center
console.
With the transmission in D (Drive),
pull the right + paddle or the left
− paddle to place the transmission
in Temporary Manual Paddle
Shift mode.
To exit Temporary Manual Paddle
Shift mode do one of the following:
.
Hold the + paddle for more than
one second.
.
Drive at a steady speed without
manual shifts or aggressive
cornering for more than
six seconds.
.
Bring the vehicle to a stop.
While the Manual Paddle Shift
feature is active, the transmission
will automatically downshift through
the gears as the vehicle slows. The
transmission will select 1 (First) gear
as the vehicle stops. From a stop,
the vehicle will start from and hold
1 (First) gear unless Manual Paddle
Shifts are used to shift into a
different gear, or D (Drive) is
selected.
To cause the transmission to
downshift to the lowest gear
possible for the vehicle speed, in
Manual Paddle Shift or Temporary
Manual Paddle Shift mode:
.
Pull and briefly hold the
− paddle. If the paddle continues
to be held as the vehicle slows,
downshifts will continue as
vehicle speed allows.
The Manual Paddle Shift system will
not allow an upshift or a downshift if
vehicle speed is too fast or too slow,
nor will it allow a start from any gear
other than 1 (First) gear.
When in Manual Paddle Shift mode,
if upshifting does not occur when
needed, vehicle speed will be
limited to protect the engine. When
in Temporary Manual Paddle Shift
mode, the transmission will
automatically upshift if the
accelerator pedal is pressed all the
way to the floor.
Manual Paddle Shift can be used
with cruise control. See Cruise
Control 0 196.
The vehicle speeds required for
Manual Paddle Shift upshifts
depend on several vehicle inputs,
which will vary the allowed upshift
speed by a few km/h (mph).
To prevent damage to the
powertrain, Manual Paddle
downshifts to a lower gear cannot
be done above certain speeds.
