keyless Oldsmobile Alero 2002 s User Guide

2-49 Illuminated Entry/Exit System
When you lift the driver's door handle or open any door,
the lamps inside your vehicle will go on. These lamps
will fade out after about 10 seconds after all of the doors
have been closed or when the ignition is turned to ON.
These lamps will also go on when you press the trunk
release, unlock symbol button or the horn symbol on the
keyless entry system transmitter (if equipped).
The lamps inside your vehicle will stay on for about 10
seconds after your key is removed from the ignition to
provide an illuminated exit.
Mirror Reading Lamps (If Equipped)
Press the button on the bottom portion of the rearview
mirror to turn on the lamps. Press the other side of the
button to turn the lamps off.
Three-Position Dome Lamp
The switch on this lamp has three positions. The ON
position will turn on the light. The DOOR position will
turn on the light whenever a door is opened or when the
instrument panel brightness thumbwheel is moved up.
The OFF position will shut off the lamp completely,
even when a door is opened.
Your vehicle may also have two reading lamps as part of
the dome lamp. Press the lens of a lamp to turn a lamp
on and off.
Trunk Lamp
The trunk lamp comes on when you open your trunk.

2-50 Battery Saver
Your vehicle is equipped with a battery saver feature
designed to protect your vehicle's battery.
When any interior lamp (trunk, mirror reading lamps,
dome lamp or glove box) is left on when the ignition is
turned off, the battery saver system will automatically
shut the lamp off after 20 minutes. This will avoid
draining the battery.
To reactivate the interior lamps, do one of the following:

Lift the driver's door handle,

open any door or

press any remote keyless entry transmitter button
(if equipped),

press the power door lock switch,

press the remote trunk release or

turn the lamp that was left on to off and then to
on again.
Mirrors
Inside Day/Night Rearview Mirror
The mirror can be adjusted two ways. First, to adjust the
height of the mirror, adjust the arm that connects the
mirror to the windshield. Second, adjust the angle of the
mirror, by moving the mirror to a position that allows
you to see out of the back window.
To reduce glare from headlamps behind you, move the
lever toward you to the night position. To return the
mirror to the daytime position, move the lever away
from you.
Manual Remote Control Mirror
The outside rearview mirror should be adjusted so you
can see a little of the side of your vehicle when you are
sitting in a comfortable driving position.
Adjust the driver's outside mirror with the control lever
on the driver's door.
To adjust your passenger's mirror, sit in the driver's seat
and have a passenger adjust the mirror for you.
