Auxiliary Power Outlets
Your vehicle may have one or two power outlets
depending on the type of front seat you have. If your
front seat has a fold-down armrest, the power outlet is
located in the center of the front seat below the cushion.
If your vehicle has front bucket seats with a center
console, you will find one outlet inside the storage
compartment and the other on the lower front edge
of the console.
These power outlets can be used to plug in electrical
equipment such as a cellular telephone or
CB radio.
Follow the proper installation instructions that are
included with the equipment you install.
Garment Hooks
For your convenience, you will find a two-hanger
capacity garment hook above each rear
door near the
reading lamps.

Driver Information Center
Personal Choice Programming
The DIC can be used to program personal choice
features available with your vehicle, such as memory
seats, memory door locks, security feedback, delayed
locking and perimeter lighting. See “Personal Choice
Features” in the Index.
The DIC is used to program the personal choices of
two drivers. The driver’s are recognized by DRIVER
#1
and DRIVER #2. You will let the DIC know which
driver you are by using your Remote Keyless Entry
transmitter or by pressing the appropriate memory
seat control button located on the driver’s door. The
remote transmitter was pre-programmed to belong
to
DRIVER #1 or DRIVER #2.
The last driver number remembered by the DIC will show
on the display each time the UNLOCK button on the same
transmitter is pressed, and the ignition is turned on.
When you press UNLOCK on your transmitter, the DIC
will automatically change driver numbers and the
vehicle will recall the personal choice settings that were
last made to correspond to your transmitter.

Ventilation Tips
0 Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or
any other obstruction such as leaves. The heater and
defroster will work better, reducing the chance of
fogging your windows.
e Keep the air path under the front seats clear of objects.
This helps
air to circulate throughout your vehicle.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter (Option)
rassenger compartment air, both outside air and
recirculated air, is routed through a passenger
compartment filter, which is part of a three piece filter
system. The filter removes certain particles from the air,
including pollen and dust particles. Reductions in
airflow, which may occur more quickly in dusty areas,
indicate that the filter needs to be replaced early. The
particle filter is located inside the air control
module with an access panel underneath the instrument
panel near the accelerator pedal. The filter should be
replaced as part
of routine scheduled maintenance. See
“Maintenance Schedule” in the Index for replacement
intervals. See your Buick dealer for details on changing
the filter.
Once you remove your filter, if you choose not
to
replace it, it will not damage your vehicle. However, the
air will no longer be filtered.
