If the SECURITY light comes on while driving, have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible. If you lose or damage a PASS-Key ignition key, see your Chevrolet dealer or a locksmith who can service PASS-Key.

But it will perform better in the long run if you followthese guidelines: 0 Keep your speed at 55 mph (88 km/h) or less for the first 500 miles (805 km). 0 Don't drive at any one speed fast or slow for the first 500 miles (805 km). Don't make full-throttle starts. 0 Avoid making hard stops for the first 200 miles (322 km) or so. During this time your new brake linings aren't yet broken in. Hard stops with new linings can mean premature wear and earlier replacement. Follow this breaking-in guideline every time you get newbrake linings. -- -- 2-19
