key CHEVROLET S10 1995 2.G Owners Manual

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnostic module, which records
information about the air bag system. The module records information
about the readiness
of the system, when the sensors are activated and
driver’s safety belt usage at deployment.
Let only qualified technicians work on your air bag system. Improper
service can mean that your air bag system won’t work properly. See
your dealer for service.
NOTICE:
If you damage the cover for the driver’s air bag, it may not work
properly. You may have to replace the air bag module.
Do not
open or break the air bag cover.
Servicing Your Air Bag-Equipped Vehicle
The air bag affects how your vehicle should be serviced. There are parts of
the air
bag system in several places around your vehicle. You don’t want the
system to inflate while someone is working
on your vehicle. Your GM
dealer and the
1995 GM Service Manual have information about servicing
your vehicle and the air bag system. To purchase a service manual, see
“Service Publications” in the Index. The air bag system does not need
regular maintenance.
I A CAUTION:
For up to 2 minutes after the ignition key is turned off and the
battery
is disconnected, an air bag can still inflate during
improper service. You can be injured
if you are close to an air
bag when,it inflates. Avoid wires wrapped with yellow tape, or
yellow connectors. They are probably part
of the air bag system.
Be sure to follow proper service procedures, and make sure the
person performing work for you is qualified to do
so.

Operation
When you press UNLOCK, the driver’s door will unlock automatically. If
you press UNLOCK again within five seconds,
all doors will unlock. All
doors will lock when LOCK is pressed.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another transmitter from
unlocking your vehicle. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can
be purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring any remaining
transmitters with you when you go to your dealer. When the dealer matches
the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, the remaining transmitters must
also be matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the lost transmitter will
not unlock your vehicle.
You can match a transmitter to as many different vehicles as you own,
provided they
are equipped with exactly the same model system. (General
Motors offers several different models
of these systems on their vehicles.)
Each vehicle can have only two transmitters matched to
it.
See your dealer to match transmitters to another vehicle.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the batteries in your key chain transmitter should last
about two years.
You can tell the batteries are weak if the transmitter won’t work at the
normal range in any location. If you have to get close to your vehicle before
the transmitter works, it’s probably time to change the batteries.

Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities. Although your
vehicle has a number
of theft deterrent features, we know that nothing we
put
on it can make it impossible to steal. However, there are ways you can
help.
Key in the lgnition
If you walk away from your vehicle with the keys inside, it’s an easy target
for joy riders or professional thieves
- so don’t do it.
When
you park your vehicle and open the driver’s door, you’ll hear a chime
reminding you
to remove your key from the ignition and take it with you.
Always do this. Your steering wheel will be locked, and so will your
ignition.
If you have an automatic transmission, taking your key out also
locks your transmission. And remember
to lock the doors.
