Memory Seat and Mirrors (Option)
If your Buick has this option, the control looks like this:
I
You can use this when you want to save a seat and
mirror adjustment.
Here’s how to make it work:
1. Adjust the driver’s seat to your desired position.
Adjust both outside mirrors to suit you. See “Outside
Mirrors”
in the Index.
2. Press the SET button, and then one of the two
memory buttons within
5 seconds. You will hear one
beep when you press the set button, and two beeps
when
you press the memory button to confirm that
the mirror and seat positions are entered in memory.
Now it’s set. When your Buick
is in PARK with the
ignition
ON, push the memory button you just set and
the seat and mirrors will go to where you’ve just set
them. With the ignition
OFF, the system will work in
any shift lever position.
To
do the same thing for a second driver, follow the
steps above but use the other memory button.
If you hit the wrong memory setting, or if there is a third
driver, the seat adjuster will still work,
so you can adjust
the seat to where
you want it.
The EXIT button allows you to get out of the car more
easily. Push it while you’re
in PARK with the ignition
ON, or anytime with the ignition OFF, to make the seat
go all the way down and back. Also, you will hear a
beep when the EXIT button is pushed.

AUTO
When the system is set for
automatic, air will come
from the
floor outlets, the
instrument panel outlets or
both. Fan speed will vary
(unless a blower
LO or HI
button has been pushed) as
the system gets to and
maintains the temperature
setting you have selected.
The display will show the set temperature and blower
speed.
In cold weather the system will delay turning on the fan,
to avoid blowing cold air. The length of the delay
depends on engine coolant temperature, outside
temperature and time since the engine was last started.
Pushing a
LO or HI blower button will override this
delay, and cause the fan to start.
To rid the system of stale air in warm weather, air will
come out of the floor outlets for
a short time. The
front seat passenger can control the air temperature
in their seating area.
__. ylrr
The air temperature for the right side of the front seat
can be set using the control on the passenger’s door.
Both DUAL
ZONE and AUTO buttons will light up. To
turn off this part of the system, push the DUAL ZONE
button again.
