OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BREAKING-IN PERIOD
Sound design and precision manufacturing methods
will permit you to operate your new Corvair in ' a nor-
mal manner
from its very first mile without adhering to a
formal "break-in" schedule. However, during the first
few hundred miles of driving you can, by observing a
few simple precautions, add to the future performance
and economy of your car.
It
is recommended that your speed during the first
500 miles be confined to a maximum of 60 M.P.H., but
do not drive for extended periods at anyone constant
speed,
either fast or slow. During this period, avoid full
throttle
"jack-rabbit" starts and quick, abrupt stops.
Gentle braking during the first few hundred miles of
operation will result in longer brake life and better
future performance. Avoid hard stops especially during
the first 200 miles of operation since brake misuse during
this period will destroy much future brake efficiency.
Always
drive at a moderate speed until the engine
has completely warmed up.
DRIVING FOR ECONOMY
Proper maintenance and wise operation will com-
bine to help you achieve maximum fuel economy with
your Corvair. Your Authorized Chevrolet Dealer can
properly tune and maintain your car but wise operation
is your responsibility. Give the car sufficient warm-up
time, do not make "jack rabbit" starts or skidding stops,
and drive at reasonable speeds and as steady as traffic
permits to gain the benefits of all the economy built into
your Corvair.
CAUTION: Carbon monoxide is a poisonous gas produced by the engine of any car. It is odor-
less, so you cannot detect its presence. 8e safe. Never start or run engine in a c10Hd garage.

IGNITION SWITCH
STARTING THE ENGINE
STARTING
LOCK OFF ON START
START-Used only when starting engine. When released,
switch returns
to ON.
ON-For normal operation after engine has been started.
OFF- Turns off engine and accessories.
LOCK-Same as OFF except that switch cannot be moved
into or out of this position without ignition key.
Always switch to LOCK and remove the key when
leaving your car unattended .
NOTE: Key cannot be removed from switch when in OFF
position, thus guarding against accidentally leaving
switch
OFF but not locked . The key may be removed
when the switch is in ON position and the switch may
then be actuated to OFF and 5T ART positions.
3
1. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION-Place the transmission
shift lever in the N (neutral) position. The
engine will
not start with the transmission in gear .
SYNCHROMESH TRANSMISSION -Place the trans-
mission
shift lever in neutral position, and depress
clutch
pedal to the floor.
2. Depress accelerator part way down and release. In
extreme cold weather (0· F. and below) or when en-
gine is hot, accelerator pedal should be held part
way down during starting.
3. Turn ignition switch to START . Release ignition switch
as soon as engine starts.
4. "FLOODED" ENGINE-Fully depress the accelerator
pedal and hold in this position while cranking the
engine-do not "pump" the accelerator pedal to
correct a "flooded" condition.

v
WARM-UP
Never race the engine or drive at high speeds until
the engine has
had a chance to warm up. Always drive
at moderate speeds for several miles, especially in cold
weather. Failure to
allow sufficient warm-up time causes
much unnecessary
wear to the engine. Also, excessive
speeds
before axle and transmission lubricant becomes
warmed up can cause harm to these parts.
... , DRIVING WITH
THE
MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS
The Three-Speed and optional Four-Speed Trans-
missions are
operated in basically the same manner. Shift
patterns differ, of course, as illustrated here. The light
green.dots with black numbers which appear iust below
the speedometer
dial indicate the recommended speeds
at which the optional '4-speed transmission should be
shifted into 2nd,
3rd and 4th gear.
1 st GEAR (LOW)-Depress clutch pedal, shift into 1st
gear, slowly release clutch pedal while pressing on
accelerator.
As car gains speed, depress clutch pedal,
release accelerator and move gearshift into 2nd gear.
2nd GEAR-Release clutch pedal and depress accelerator
as above as car gains speed, then, in same manner
as before, move gearshift lever into 3rd gear.
4
3rd GEAR (HIGH)-Slowly release clutch pedal and de-
press accelerator
pedal. This is the cruising gear for
all normal driving with tHe 3-speed transmission.
With the 4-speed transmission 3rd gear will provide
more response and h' igher performance for driving
in heavy traffic.
4th
GEAR (HIGH-4-speed Transmission Only)
Shift
into 4th gear in the same manner for normal
cruising with the 4-speed transmission.
NOTE: Whenever the vehicle begins to labor in
any gear, depress the clutch pedal, and shilt
to the next lower gear ,
TO STOP-Release the accelerator and depress the
brake pedal. As car slows down ~ depress the clutch
pedal and move the gearshift lever into neutral.
NEUTRAL-For ",se when starting or idling engine.
REVERSE-Operate
as for 1 st gear but always at a
slow speed.
TOWING-Attaching points for lifting and towing are
located in the front and rear bumper brackets.

Three Speed Shift Pattern
PUSHING TO START
• Turn on key and depress clutch pedal.
• Place gearshift lever in Neutral position until car
speed reaches 15 MPH .
Four Spe . ed Shift Pattern
• Move shift lever to 3rd position and slowly release
clutch pedal.
• Never attempt to start the car by towing.
DRIVING WITH THE POWERGLIDE TRANSMISSION
The optional Powerglide transmission is completely
automatic and replaces the standard clutch and trans-
mission. Start the engine with the selector lever in N
position, select the range desired and depress the accel-
erator. The Powerglide transmission will do the rest.
5
During normal forward driving, the transmission starts
in automatic low gear and will shift to cruising gear at
. some point between approximately 12 and 50 mph, de-
pending on the accelerator position. Thus, a gradual start
with a steady, gradual increase of pressure on the accel-

erator pedal will enable the transmission to shift into the
more economical cruising gear in the shortest possible
time.
Hard acceleration for fast starts will cause the trans-
mission
to remain in low gear for a considerably longer
period with resultant higher fuel c.onsumption.
When driving at speeds below 40 mph, the transmis-
sion
may be shifted back into low range for extra acceler-
ation by depressing the accelerator pedal fully. The
transmission
will automatically shift back into cruising
gear when the accelerator pedal is momentarily released.
PUSHING TO ' START
• Turn on key and move selector lever to neutral. At 20
to 25 mph move lever to l.
• When engine starts, move selector lever to D.
TOWING
• Never tow to start vehicle.
• Place selector lever in neutral.
•
If transmission or axle are malfunctioning, tow with
rear wheels raised. Never tow faster than · 50 mph.

USES
NORMAL
DRIVING
RANGE
SAND, SNOW,
MUD OR ON
STEEP GRADES

• Attaching points for lifting and towing are located in
the
front and rear bumper brackets.
•
When towing any vehicle on its front wheels, the steer-
ing wheel should be secured to maintain a straight
ahead position.
ROCKING CAR
When stuck in mud, sand or snow, you may rock
the
car by depre~sing the accelerator slightly and shifting
the selector
lever between Rand O. Avoid excessive
engine speed while performing this operation .
PARKING CAR
It is important that when your Corvair 95 or Green-
brier is parked the parking brake be fully engaged. Do
not count on the transmission to hoid " the cor. Always
engage the parking brake when parked.
POWERGLIDE DRIVING CAUTIONS
• Always engage parking brake when parked.
• Do not accelerate engine in "L," "0," or
"R" with the brakes engaged. This can
cause
damage by overheating transmission.
•
Do not hold car on an upgrade by accelerat-
ing engine. Use Brakes.
•
Do not use low position except for hard pulls
at low speed, or climbing, or descending
steep grades.
• Always stop car before shifting to reverse.
DRIVING WITH THE POSITRACTION REAR AXLE
The Positraction Rear Axle gives you constant driv-
ing force on both rear wheels; especially helpful in the
winter and during other slippery driving conditions .
In normal use, light throttle application will supply
7
maximum traction . When starting with one rear wheel
on an excessively slippery surface, slight application of
the parking brake mdy be necessary to gain maximum
traction.

INSTRUMENTS
All driving instruments are grouped in the instrument
cluster which
is located immediately in front of the driver
to provide quick reading and a.maximum of convenience
and accessibility. The "TEMP-PRESS" and "GEN-FAN" in-
dicator lights provide important information concerning
the condition
of the engine and should be observed regu-
larly during operation of the car. The information on
these pages
will help you understand the operation of
these instruments. The illustrations here and on page 10
will acquaint you with the instrument cluster and the
instrument
panel as a whole.
FUEL GAUGE
This gauge indicates fuel
quantity in the tank only
~hen the ignition switch is in
the
ON position. When the
ignition is "off," the indica-
tor pointer will not neces-
sarily return to the empty
IE)
mark, but may stop at any
point on the gauge.
8
BRIGtiTBEAM
SPEEDOMETER
Shows speed in miles per hour. The odometer below
the speedometer registers accumulated mileage .
Information concerning the four ·speed transmission
shift points
indicated below will be found in the·manual
transmission
operating instructions on page 4.

"TEMP·PRESS" AND "GEN·FAN" INDICATORS
These indicators are extremely important since they
provide a constant check on the operating condition of
the air cooled engine and the generator of your Corvair
95. Both indicator lights should light with the ignition
switch "ON" and before starting the engine. Indicator
lights will go out shortly after engine is started and dur-
ing normal operation of the car. Flickering of the "Gen-
Fan" light while engine is idling is a normal condition.
Engine cooling depends on operation of the fan
driven by the Gen-Fan belt. A broken or slipping fan
belt will cause the Gen-Fan indicator to remain lighted
during normal operation and continued engine operation
can result in serious damage.

tacted
to correct this condition.

DIMMER SWITCH
The foot button switches the headlights between
"high" and "low" beam. The red "high" beam indicator
will be lighted when the headlights are on "high" beam.
Always dim the lights when approaching oncoming cars.
"-
TURN SIGNAL
The turn signal lever should be moved UP to signal
a right turn
or DOWN to signal a left turn. The green
turn signal indicators in the instrument panel will signal
the direction as will the
front and rear turn signal lamps.
When the turn
is completed, the lever will automatically
return to neutral position.
Get into the habit of turning
on the signal well in advance
of
where you plan to turn. Drivers
who are
following will appre-
ciate your consideration.
LIGHTING SYSTEM TROUBLE CHECKS
• If headlights flicker on and off Intermittently, your
Authorized Chevrolet Dealer should
be called upon
immediately to correct the overload condition.
•
If the tail light fuse blows out, the instrument panel
lights
will also be inoperative. Check both the instru-
ment panel fuse
and the tail light fuse. (See page 39.)
•
If, when signalling a turn, the green turn signal indi-
cator comes on but does not flash, a burned out front
or rear
tu rn signal lamp on that side or an improper
11
flasher (3-bulb instead of 2-bulb flasher) is indicated.
•
If the green turn signal indicator comes on and stays on
but does not flash when signaling a turn
in either
direction, and no "clicking" is heard, replace the
flasher.
•
If flasher clicks but the green turn signal indicator does
not operate, replace the indicator bulb.
• A series-type, 2-bulb flasher
is standard equipment on
Corvairs. Always replace with the same type flasher.

FOOT CONTROLS
Foot controls consist of the dimmer switch (the op-
eration of which is covered on page 11 " the clutch pedal
(manual transmissions only" the brake pedal and the
accelerator pedal.
CLUTCH PEDAL
The operation of the clutch pedal has been fully
covered untler "Driving with the Manual Transmissions"
on
page 4. Its operation is the same whether your car
is equipped with the 3-speed or the 4-speed transmission.
Excessive clutch
wear can be caused by letting up the
clutch
abruptly rather than smoothly, and by "riding" the
clutch-that is, letting your foot rest on the clutch while
driving.
12
BRAKES
The brake pedal should have a hard Arm feel when
applied. ' If the pedal feel becomes soft or spongy the
brakes
are in need of service. Your Authorized Chevrolet
Dealer can return your brakes to their original safe op-
erating condition.
PA~KING BRAKE
PARKING BRAKE
APPLYING HANDLE
Pull the parking brake lever to engage the brake.
The lever will remain in the applied position until released
by means of the "trigger" on the handle. To release,
pull the
handle toward the steering wheel, depress the
unlocking
trigger , and qllow the handle to return to the
released position. Always
engage the parking brake
when" parked. .
The 'accessory
brake alarm light is very useful in warn-
ing you that your parking brakes ar-e applied.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHERS
The single speed (or optional two-speed) parallel
acting wipers are operated by means of the wiper con-
trol knob on the dash. Turning wiper control knob clock-
wise will start the
wiper motor. The optional two speed
wipers have three switch positions,
"Off," "Low" and
"High". A fully counterclockwise turn of the knob turns
off either wiper.
Exposure to the elements tends to "wear out" the
rubber in the wiper blades. Check the blades periodically
and replace them whenever they show signs of streaky
or otherwise poor wiping action.
Pressing once on the accessory windshield washer
button
will cause the washer to squirt a m"easured amount
of water or other cleaning agent onto the glass and will
at the same time turn on the wiper motor. The wiper must
then
be manually turned off, when the washing process
is completed, by means of the wiper " contral knob.
Wbter or cleaning agent needed for operation of
the accessory windshield washers is carried in a plastic
water bag under the dash panel. It is attached by means
of three hooks to the fire wall. To fill with water or solvent:
remove the
bag from the hooks, drop to where the cap
13
may be unlocked and removed, flll the bag, replace the
cap and reinstall on the three hooks. K~ep the washer
bag filled with a solution of water and a suitable solvent.
G. M. Part No. 988299, Windshield Washer Anti-Freeze
and solvent, is recommended for use in the Corvair
windshield washer bag. NEVER USE ANY SOLVENT OR
ANTI-FREEZE SOLUTION WHICH CONTAINS METHANOL.
Fill the washer
bag only 3,4 full for expansion if the
solution freezes. In
freezing weather, pre-warm the
windshield using the
heater defrosters before using the
washers.

DIRECT AIR HEATER The optional Direct Air
~ ~ -r',~ j :--- iJ ; f
~2. ~~ ~
I:teater mak~s use of engine
cooling air to heat the interior
' of the car. After performing
its engine cooling function the
air is channeled through a
blower and on into the car.
Air provided by the engine
blower may also be diverted
prior to passing over the engine to provide cooler air for
temperature modulation or mild weather heating. With
the AIR and HEAT controls in the OFF position, the engine
heat is ducted to the rear of the engine and out through
the thermostatically
controlled engine cooling doors.
The heater controls
are:
FAN-Controls blower speed. Blower must not be oper-
ated unless either the HEAT or AIR lever is depressed.
AIR-Controls the amount of moderately heated air pre-
sented to the
heater system.
HEAT
-Controls the amount of .hot air to the system.
DEF.- The DEFROSTER lever diverts the flow of air to the
defroster outlets.
OPERA TION FOR MAXIMUM COMFORT
• MINIMUM HEAT REQUIREMENTS-During spring and
fall in areas where climatic conditions are less severe,
depress the AIR lever only
as required for your comfort.
• MEDIUM HEAT REQUIREMENTS-Depress the AIR lever
all the
way down, then depress the HEAT lever as
required. This
will control the flow of mixed air (mod-
erately heated and hot air) necessary for temperature
control
and provide definite variation of air tempera -
ture.
•
MAXIMUM HEAT REQUIREMENTS-Depress HEAT and
AIR levers to extreme down position. If heat becomes
excessive, pull up HEAT
knob to desired position.

NOTE :
Since"Water vapor and odors may collect when vehicle stands for long periods. keep the HEAT and AI R levers in OFF position for
first few minutes of engine operation. This will reduce the tendency for moisture to condense on wi ndshield and will reduce odors
entering passenger compartment. Windshield fogging at start of defroster operation may be corrected by opening vent ' windows.
Oil spilled on engine shrouding may cause odor in passenger compartment. To avoid discomfort. the cause of any odor should
be traced and any defect promptly corrected.

GASOLINE HEATER .
The optional Corvair gasoline heater is designed to
provide
an ample volume of outside heated air within
two minutes
after being turned on.
Three control levers provide
full control of the gaso-
line heater. .
FAN-this is the AIR-ON control and the two-speed blower
control.
This lever must be pushed down before the
unit
will operate. The switch provides "LOW" blower
speed at its first stop and "HI" blower speed when
in the full down position.
DEF-diverts
heated air to the defroster ducts for defog-
ging or deicing the windshield.
HEAT -Allows for selecting degree of heat desired.
Heater will begin to supply heat in a minimum of 30
seconds. For efficient heating and heat distribution,
keep all windows closed.
NOTE: When heater or ignition switch is shut off,
the combustion blower will continue to opefate
for 30 to 40 seconds to remove unburned fuel
an.d
vapor from the system. This is normal for this
type
of heater.

CHEVROLET RADIO
When installed, the optional Chevrolet radio is within
easy reach of the driver . The powerful undistorted recep-
tion is
obtained by the use of two simple controls.
RIGHT CONTROL
KNOB-The right control knob is used
to select a wide range of frequ~ncies on the AM band.
Selection of stations will be limited to the. output and
the number of stations in your area.
16
LEFT CONTROL KNOB-The outer portion of the left con-
trol knob serves
to turn the radio on and off and to
control the volume.
The inner
"wing knob" may be moved to change the
tone from
treble (extreme clockwise position) to bass
(extreme counterclockwise position).
This control
is designed to give the highest tone fidel-
ity when positioned midpoint between the treble and bass
setting.

RADIO TIPS
• Be sure your dial is exactly on the station
for clearest reception.
• For local reception, raise the antenna
at
least as high as the roof of the vehicle. For
long distance reception, extend the antenna
to its full length.
•
The Conelrad markings at 640 and 1 240 on
the
radio dial indicate Office of Civilian
Defense frequencies; the
only frequencies
which will be used in case
of a national
emergency.
•
If radio stops playing, flrst check the radio
fuse in the junction block; then check the
antenna lead-in cable.
If this does not locate
the trouble, take the
radio to your Author-
ized Chevrolet Dealer.
17
CIGARETTE LIGHTER AND ASH TRAY
Press in on the optional cigarette lighter to heat.
When ready
for use, it will "pop" out. The ash tray will
pivot out and downward when the handle is pulled. To
remove the ash tray, depress the tab inside the tray and
lift out.
AIR VENTS
Additional summerventila-
tion
is provided through vent
inlets in each side
of the front
passenger compartment.
The
vents may be opened or
closed by means of the con-
trol knobs beneath each end
of the inSTrument panel.

KEY
PLUG
A single key operates all of the locks on your Corvair
95 or Greenbrier-both front doors, rear doors, ignition
switch and glove box.
The key has a serial number stamped on a removable
plug. This number will provide necess~ry information to
enable you to have another key made, in the event that
the original is lost.
To
avoid the possibility that unauthorized persons
might duplicate your key, it is strongly recommended that
you record the serial number and then, with a hammer
and punch, remove the knockout plug .
18
DOORS AND LOCKS
Both front doors may be locked from the outside by
means of the ignition key inserted into the push button
in the
door handle. Turn the key clockwise to lock, counter-
clockwise
to unlock. Both doors may be key locked while
open, and when closed, they will remain locked.
Lock the. front doors from the inside by pushing fully
forward on the release handles. Unlock and open the
doors
from the inside by pulling fully rearwa .rd on the
release handles.
The
ventipane window friction locks are simply lifted
up and forward to unlock and the pane pushed out to
the desired position.

DOUBLE SIDE DOORS
FRONT SIDE DOOR - Open
from the outside by turning
the handle
downward and
from the inside
by pulling to
the rear on the inside release
handle.
REAR SIDE DOOR-Open
(after the front side has been
opened)
by means of the re-
lease handle located on the
inner
door panel.
LOCKING
THE SIDE DOORS
-After both side doors are
closed, they may be locked
from the inside
by means of
the push button located on
the foremost
part of the win-
dow sill. The lock is con-
veniently located
for acces-
sibility
by the driver. Visual
indication precludes the
necessity of checking opera-
tion of the doors to see if they
are locked.
19
DOUBLE REAR DOORS
The rear doors operate in
much the same manner
as the
side doors, but lock
and un-
lock
at the door handle push
button release only.
No inner
door locking mechanism is
provided for the rear doors.
FULL DOOR OPENING FEATURE
Special door checks normally permit each side and
rear
door to open to a maximum of 95°. By removing
these checks from their retaining slots in the doors, a full
180° opening of each of these doors is possible. When
the doors are closed the check automatically enters its
slot in the
door thus setting the door for its normal 95°
opening.
