Illuminated EntryExit System
When you lift the outside handle of either front door or
open either rear door, the lamps inside your vehicle will
go on. These lamps will fade out after about 40 seconds,
or when the ignition
is turned on after all doors have
been closed.
If the ignition was recently turned off, the
lamps will fade
out after four seconds. These lamps will
also go on when you press the
DOOR or UNLOCK
button on the optional Remote Lock Control transmitter.
Rear Door Security Locks
Your Oldsmobile is
equipped with rear
door security locks
that help prevent
passengers from
opening the rear
doors
of your vehicle from
the inside.
If the ignition has been off for less than two minutes,
the lamps inside your vehicle will stay
on for about
15 seconds after your key is removed from the ignition
to provide an illuminated exit. To use one of these locks:
1. Use a key to move the lock all the way up.
2. Close the door.
3.. Do the same thing to the other rear door lock.

The rear doors of your vehicle cannot be opened from
inside when this feature
is in use. If you want to open a
rear door when the security lock is on:
1. Unlock the door from the inside.
2. Then open the door from the outside.
If you don’t cancel the security lock feature, adults or
older children who ride in the rear won’t be able to open
the rear door from the inside. You should let adults and
older children know how these security locks work, and
how to cancel the locks.
To Cancel the Rear Door Lock:
1. Unlock the door from the inside and open the door
from the outside.
2. Use a key to move the lock all the way down.
3. Do the same for the other rear door.
The rear door locks will now work normally.
Remote Lock Control (Option)
If your Oldsmobile has this option, you can lock and
unlock your doors or unlock your trunk from
up to
30 feet (9 m) away using the key chain transmitter
supplied with your vehicle.
Your Remote Lock Control operates on a radio
frequency subject to Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules.
2-6

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.
2-7

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.
2-8

To turn the lockout on,
slide the switch all the
way
to the right. To
turn the lockout off,
slide the switch all the
way to the left.
When the lockout is
on, the mechanical remote trunk
release will not release
the trunk lid. However, the trunk
lid can still be opened with the key.
If
you have the optional Remote Lock Control feature,
your vehicle is not equipped with the trunk lockout
switch.
Convenience Net (Option)
Your vehicle may have a convenience net. You’ll see it
just inside the back wall of the trunk.
Put small loads, like grocery bags, behind the net. It can
help keep them from falling over during sharp turns
or
quick starts and stops.
The net isn’t for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the
trunk as far forward as you can.
You can unhook the net so that it will lie flat when
you’re
not using it.
2-10

Also, if your vehicle is left with the ignition turned off
for over 24 days, battery power to your clock, audio
system and Remote
Lock Control (if you have this
option) will be turned
off to reduce battery drain. When
the ignition is turned on again, battery power will
be
resupplied. However, under these conditions, it will be
necessary to reset the clock and audio system settings.
