Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
14622938) - 2021 - CRC - 9/22/20
16 Keys, Doors, and Windows
From Outside the Vehicle
There are two back up key cylinders outside,
one to open the left hand door and one to
open the trunk:
In the air inlet located on the body,
rearward of the left door handle.
Remove the license plate to access the
second backup key lock cylinder for the
trunk.
Free-Turning Locks
The door key lock cylinder turns freely when
either the wrong mechanical key is used or
the correct mechanical key is not fully
inserted. The free-turning door lock feature
prevents the lock from being forced open.
To reset the lock, turn it to the vertical
position with the correct mechanical key
fully inserted. Remove the mechanical key
and insert it again. If this does not reset the
lock, turn the mechanical key halfway
around in the cylinder and repeat the reset
procedure.
Delayed Locking
This feature delays the actual locking of the
doors until five seconds after all doors are
closed.
When
Q is pressed on the power door lock
switch with the door open, a chime will
sound three times indicating that delayed
locking is active.
The doors will then lock automatically
five seconds after all doors are closed. If a
door is reopened before five seconds have
elapsed, the five-second timer will reset once
all the doors are closed again.
Press
Q on the door lock switch again,
or press
Q on the remote key, to override
this feature and lock the doors immediately.
Delayed locking can be programmed. See
Vehicle Personalization 0 97.

doors are closed, the ignition is on, and the
vehicle is shifted out of P (Park).
