start stop button OLDSMOBILE BRAVADA 1998 Owners Manual

EIISLW the shift lever is f~~lly in PARK (P) range
before starting the engine. Your vehicle has
a
Brake-Transmission Shift Interlock (BTSI). You
have to fully apply your regular brakes before you can
shift from PARK
(P) when the ignition key is in RUN.
If you cannot shift out of PARK (P), ease pressure on
the shift lever -- press the button on the shift lever and
push the shift lever
all the way into PARK (P) as you
maintain brake application. Then move the shift lever
into the gear you wish. See ”Shifting Out of PARK (P)”
in the Index.
REVERSE (R): Use this gear to back up.
NOTICE:
Shifting to REVERSE (R) while your vehicle is
moving forward could damage your
transmission. Shift
to REVERSE (R) only after
your vehicle
is stopped.
To rock your vehicle back and forth to get out of snow,
ice or sand without damaging your transmission, see
”Stuck:
In Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow’‘ in the Index.
NEUTRAL (N): In this position, your engine doesn’t
connect
with the wheels. To restart when you’re already
moving, use NEUTRAL (N) only.
Shifting out
of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) while
your engine
is “racing” (running at high speed) is
dangerous. Unless your foot
is firmly on the
brake pedal, your vehicle could move very
rapidly. You could lose control and hit people or
objects. Don’t shift out of
PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N) while your engine is racing.
I NOTICE:
Damage to your transmission caused by shifting
out of
PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) with the
engine racing isn’t covered by your warranty.

Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while
programming the transmitter. Follow these steps to
program
up to three channels:
1. If you have not previously programmed a universal
channel, proceed to Step
2. Otherwise, hold down
the two outside buttons on the universal transmitter
~~ntil the red light begins to flash rapidly
(approximately 20 seconds). Then release the
buttons. This procedure initializes the memory and
erases any previous settings for all three channels.
2. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter against the
bottom surface of the universal transmitter
so that
YOLI can still see the red light.
3. Decide which one of the three channels you want to
program. Using both hands, press the hand-held
transmitter button and the desired button on the
universal transmitter. Contin~le
to hold both buttons
through Step
4.
4. Hold down both buttons until you see the red light
on the ~~niversal transmitter flash rapidly. The rapid
flashing, which could take
LIP to 90 seconds,
indicates that the universal transmitter
has been
programmed. Release both buttons once the light
starts to flash rapidly.
