It everything is correctly, put the car in transport mode, and you'll get 4 to 5 weeks out of the battery with no problems with no charger. I did it all last summer.

The Camaro used a lead acid battery. That I know of GM doesn't use a AGM in any vehicle they sell currently.

Here ya go.
If you don't plan to drive for a while, you can put the car into Transport Mode... With the car off, turn on the hazards, depress the brake pedal, and hold the start button down for 15 seconds. The dash will then throw up a message confirming Transport Mode. To get it back out of Transport mode, do the same thing again. Transport Mode reduces power-usage to a minimum so that the car can sit for longer periods without draining the battery. Courtesy of member TonyNo

The vehicle has an Absorbed Glas Mat (AGM) 12-volt battery. Installation of a standard 12-volt battery will result in reduced 12-vol battery life. When using a 12-volt battery charger on the 12-volt AGM battery, some chargers have an AGM battery setting on the charger If available, use the AGM setting o the charger, to limit charge voltage to 14.8 volts.

Where does is say that? I hate owner's manuals that try to be one size fits all when there are so many differences.
