Chevrolet Silverado: Vehicle Checks / Park Brake and P (Park) Mechanism Check
Warning
When you are doing this check, the vehicle could begin to move. You or
others could be injured and property could be damaged. Make sure there is room in
front of the vehicle in case it begins to roll. Be ready to apply the regular brake
at once should the vehicle begin to move.

foot on the regular brake, set the parking brake. . To check the parking brake's
holding ability: With the engine running and the transmission in N (Neutral),
slowly remove foot pressure from the regular brake pedal. Do this until the
vehicle is held by the parking brake only.

shift to P (Park). Then release the parking brake followed by the regular brake.
Contact your dealer if service is required.

set, try to turn the ignition off in each shift lever position. The ignition should
turn to off only when the shift lever is in P (Park)...

If equipped, there is a small convex mirror built into the upper and outer corner
of the driver outside mirror. It can show objects that may be in the vehicle's blind
zone.
Driving with the Blind Spot Mirror

Actual Mirror View
When the approaching vehicle is a long distance away, the image in the main
mirror is small and near the inboard edge of the mirror.
As the vehicle gets closer, the image in the main mirror gets larger and
moves outboard.
As the vehicle enters the blind zone, the image transitions from the main
mirror to the blind spot mirror.
When the vehicle is in the blind zone, the image only appears in the blind
spot mirror.
