(Central Locking and  Anti-Theft 
Each rear door is equipped with  the child  lock-out  lever, pre- 
venting  the door from  being opened from  the inside regard- 
less  of loclc  button  position. 
Starting with  models produced  afler 
911997, the General 
Module  and electronic immobilizer (EWS)  interface via the 
K- 
Bus  to monitor double  lock status and  to initiate double  loclc 
override.  This feature allows the doors  to be  opened  from the 
inside  if a key  accepted  by EWS is switched  on in the ignition. 
See  Single  lock and double  lock function. 
The  door  loclc buttons are mechanically  uncoupled from the 
actuators when locked.  The remote  keyless  entry system 
(FZV)  is standard equipment.  This allows  for elimination  of 
the  passengers  side door 
loclt cylinder. 
Another  function of  the locking system is  the 
sofl close trunk 
(SCA) system,  where applicable. 
Single  lock and double  lock function 
(2000 and later  models) 
On  models produced  after 
911999, each door lock actuator  in- 
corporates two  motors: 
Single lock motor controls  the mechanical  loclc mechanism 
when  the central  lock switch is pressed  to single  loclc the 
vehicle.  The loclc mechanism  is fully locked  at this point but 
can  stil. be openeo  from 
the interor by pulng the appropri- 
are interior  door  nandle lwce or by  pressing rhe central 
lock switch again. When single 
lock'function is activated, 
the fuel  filler flap actuator is not locked. 
Double  lock motor,  also known  as central arrest,  is activat- 
ed only  when the vehicle  is locked  from the  outside at the 
driver's door  lock with a  key or when  the GM  receives a 
lock  request from  the remote entry  (FZV) system.  In this 
case the  double lock motor  is activated simultaneously 
with  the single lock  motor. The function  of the  double  loclc 
motor  is to  mechanically offset  an internal rod in the loclc 
actuator, disabling  it from unlocking  the vehicle from  the in- 
terior.  This prevents the doors from  being unloclted by  any 
means  except from an  unlock request  at the  driver's door 
or via  the FZV  remote key. 
Lock  cylinder  safety 
4 The driver's door  loclc and the trunk  loclc incorporate  an over- 
running  loclc cylinder  similar to  the ignition lock. If any  key 
other than the  vehicle key, or a tool  such as a screwdriver or 
dent-puller,  is inserted  into the cylinder,  it will  cause  the cyl- 
inder  to freewheel  or spin.

1 Central Locking  and Anti-Theft 
NOJE- 
A single  unlock  request  from the driver's  door with the FZV 
key  unlocks  the driver's  door only. 
A second  unlock request 
unlocls the remaining doors  and trunk.  This feature  can be 
modified  for individual users  with the Key  Memory capabil- 
ities  to activate all  lock actuators simultaneously  See Car 
Memory 
/ Key  Memory  later in this section. 
Starting  with 2000  models, the battery in  the FZV  ignition 
Icey is recharged  by the  ignition  switch ring antenna while 
the  ley  is in the  ignition  switch. 
Transmitter  self-test (models to 
1999) 
Press buttons 1 and 2 at the  same  time. This  starts ltey trans- 
/ mitter self-test.  Transmitter  is OK  when LED glows steadily 
te{le"el for that particular  key  and illuminate an instrument 
cluster  message.

If batteries  are replaced  within one minute  of removal,  it is 
not  necessary  to 
periorm initialization. 
Tlie state of charge of key  batteries  has no effect  on elec- 
tronic  immobilizer (EWS) function.

for one second. If LED fails  to illuminate,  try replacing ltey~ 
batteries. 
The  state  of charge  of key  transmitter  batteries  is monitored 
by  the 
GM. Once the  voltage level of the  transmitter  drops be- 
low 
4.5volts, the LED no  longersignals  transmitteroperation. 
Convenience  opening, initialization  and self-testing  are no 
lonaer ~ossible. The GM will store  a fault indicatina  low bat-
