This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation
is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Should interference to this system occur, try this:
Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions on battery
replacement.
Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. This product has a maximum range.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
See your Oldsmobile retailer or a qualified
technician for service.
Changes or modifications to
this system by other than an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
Operation
The driver’s door will unlock when UNLOCK is
pressed.
If pressed again within five seconds, all doors
will unlock. All doors will lock when
DOOR is pressed.
The trunk will unlock anytime when the vehicle symbol
on the Remote
Lock Control is pressed and the ignition is
off. If the ignition is on, the trunk will unlock if the
parking brake is set (manual transaxle) or
the gear selector
is in PARK
(P) or NEUTRAL, (N) (automatic transaxle).
Press
DOOR or UNLOCK to illuminate the interior
lamps. The lamps will then
go off after 40 seconds when
UNLOCK is pressed and four seconds when
DOOR is
pressed. When the ignition is turned on, the lamps will
also fade out (see Illuminated EntryExit System earlier
in this section).
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 retailer. Remember to bring any remaining
transmitters with you when you
go to your retailer.
When the retailer 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 sume 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 retailer 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. To Replace Batteries in the Remote Lock Control
1. Pop the cover off by inserting a coin or similar
object in the slot between the covers, and then
twisting.
2. Lift the front cover off, bottom half first.
3. Remove and replace the two batteries. Use two
Duracell@ batteries, type DL-20
16, or equivalent.
4. Replace the front cover. Make sure the cover is on
tightly, so water won’t get in.
5. Check the transmitter operation.

3. If your engine still won’t start (or starts but then
stops), it could be flooded with too much gasoline.
Try pushing your accelerator pedal all the way
to the
floor and holding it there as you hold the key
in
START for about three seconds. This clears the extra
gasoline from the engine. If the vehicle starts briefly
but then stops again, do the same thing, but this time
keep the pedal about one-quarter
of the way down
for five
or six seconds.
NOTICE:
Your engine is designed to work with the
electronics in your vehicle.
If you add electrical
parts or accessories, you could change the way
the fuel injection system operates. Before adding
electrical equipment, check with your retailer.
If
you don’t, your engine might not perform
properly.
If you ever have to have your vehicle towed, see
the part
of this manual that tells how to do it
without damaging your vehicle. See “Towing
Your Vehicle’’ in the Index. To
start your
3.1 Liter engine:
I. Without pushing t.he accelerator pedal, turn your
ignition key to
START. When the engine starts, let
go of the key. The idle speed will go down as your
engine gets warm.
NOTICE:
Holding your key in START for longer than
15 seconds at a time will cause your battery to be
drained much sooner. And the excessive heat can
damage your starter motor.
2. If your engine won’t start (or starts but then stops), it
could be flooded with too much gasoline. Try
pushing your accelerator pedal all the way to the
floor and holding
it there as you hold the key in
START for about three seconds. If the vehicle starts
briefly but then stops again, do
the same thing, but
this time keep the pedal down for five or six seconds.
This clears the extra gasoline from the engine.
