If the driver wishes to let the last door closed locking
feature complete the locking of the vehicle, no
additional action is required. The last door closed
locking feature will lock the doors automatically after
all the doors have been closed for a period of five
seconds. During this five second period, any door may
be reopened, at which time the three possible actions
described previously are again available.
You can customize the vehicle to activate the last door
closed locking feature as described previously or to
completely disable the last door closed locking feature at
all times. If disabled, the doors will lock immediately
when a power door lock switch is pressed. The last door
closed locking feature is customized when the driver
performs the following sequence with the doors closed
and the ignition key in ON.
1. Press and hold the power door lock switch in the
unlock position.
2. While holding the door unlock switch, cycle the
transaxle out of and back into PARK (P).3. After an initial transaxle cycle, each additional cycle
will turn the last door closed locking feature on
or off.
4. During this customization procedure, the chime will
sound, providing the driver feedback. A single chime
will be heard if the last door closed locking feature is
off, and two chimes will be heard if the last door
closed locking feature is on.
5. When the door unlock switch is released, the vehicle
will remain in the most recent operating mode.
The last door closed locking feature is enabled when the
vehicle is shipped from the factory.
Disconnecting the battery for up to a year will not
change or delete the last door closed locking feature.

Keyless Entry System (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this feature, you can lock and unlock
your doors or unlock your trunk from about 3 feet (1 m)
up to 30 feet (9 m) away using the remote keyless entry
transmitter supplied with your vehicle.
Your keyless entry system operates on a radio frequency
subject to Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
Rules and with Industry Canada.
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.
This device complies with RSS
-210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of
the device.Changes or modifications to this system by other than an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
At times you may notice a decrease in range. This is
normal for any remote keyless entry system. If the
transmitter does not work or if you have to stand closer
to your vehicle for the transmitter to work, try this:

Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.

Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left or
right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again.

Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions that follow.

If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.

2-11
The operating mode of the remote activation verification
lock (RAV) feature will be changed when the driver
performs the following sequence with the doors closed
and the ignition key in ON:
1. Press and hold down the power door lock switch in
the lock position.
2. While holding the door lock switch, press and
release the remote keyless entry transmitter
LOCK button. This button press will initialize the
customization mode. Upon initiation of this mode,
the chime will sound the number of chimes
corresponding to the current RAV lock mode.
3. Each additional press of the remote keyless entry
transmitter LOCK button will cause the vehicle to
advance to the RAV lock mode by one, starting from
the current RAV lock mode.
4. If cycled beyond RAV lock Mode 4, the vehicle will
enter RAV lock Mode 1. When the door lock switch
is released, the vehicle will remain in the most recent
RAV lock mode.
Disconnecting the battery for up to a year will not
change or delete any previously programmed modes.Illumination on Remote Activation
This feature is included on vehicles with the remote
keyless entry system. The interior illumination will be
activated when an remote keyless entry door unlock
command is received. The ignition must be off for the
remote activation illumination to work. The interior
lamps will illuminate until the ignition is turned to
ON or until the illumination period of 40 seconds
has elapsed.
If during the illumination period, a door is opened, the
timed illumination period will be cancelled, though the
interior lamps will remain on until all doors are closed.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry 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, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have only four transmitters
matched to it.

2-12 Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about three years.
You can tell the battery is 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 battery.
NOTICE:
When replacing the battery, use care not to touch
any of the circuitry. Static from your body
transferred to these surfaces may damage
the transmitter.
To replace your battery:
1. Insert a flat object like a dime into the slot on the
back of the transmitter. Gently pry apart the front
and back.
2. Gently pry the battery out of the transmitter.
(Do not use a metal object.)
3. Put the new battery into the transmitter as shown on
the transmitter (use a type CR2032 battery).
4. Put the two halves back together. Make sure the
halves are together tightly so water won't get in.
5. Resynchronize and then test the transmitter.

2-13 Resynchronization
After you have changed the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter, you will need to resynchronize the
transmitter. To do this, press the LOCK and UNLOCK
buttons at the same time and hold for approximately seven
seconds (or until the horn chirps three times). You will
need to use this procedure if your vehicle has lost battery
power for an extended period of time.
Trunk Lid
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You can't see or smell
CO. It can cause unconsciousness and even death.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
If you must drive with the trunk lid open or if
electrical wiring or other cable connections must
pass through the seal between the body and
the trunk:

Make sure all other windows are shut.

Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on VENT. That will force outside air into
your vehicle. See ªComfort Controlsº in
the Index.

If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See ªEngine Exhaustº in the Index.
Trunk Lock
To unlock the trunk from the outside, insert the key and
turn it clockwise.
You can also use the remote keyless entry transmitter, if
your vehicle is equipped.

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. 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.
After waiting about 15 seconds, repeat the normal
starting procedure.
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 engine operates. Before adding electrical
equipment, check with your dealer. 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 ªTowing
Your Vehicleº in the Index.
Engine Coolant Heater (If Equipped)
In very cold weather, 0
F (-18
C) or colder, the engine
coolant heater can help. You'll get easier starting and
better fuel economy during engine warm
-up. Usually,
the coolant heater should be plugged in a minimum of
four hours prior to starting your vehicle.
To Use the Engine Coolant Heater
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the electrical cord. The cord
is located behind the driver's side headlamp assembly.

2-41 Battery Saver
Your vehicle has a feature to help prevent you from
draining the battery in case you accidentally leave an
interior or trunk lamp on. If you leave any of these
lamps on while the ignition is in ACC or OFF, they will
automatically turn off after 20 minutes. The lamps won't
come back on until you do one of the following:

Turn the ignition to ON,

turn the interior lamp dial all the way up or

open (or close and reopen) a door that is closed.
Please note that if your vehicle has less than 15 miles
(25 km) on the odometer, the battery saver will turn off
the lamps after only three minutes.
Mirrors
Adjust all mirrors so you can see clearly when you are
sitting in a comfortable position.
Inside Day/Night Rearview Mirror
To reduce glare from lamps behind you, push the lever
located on the bottom center of the mirror away from
you to the night position. To return the mirror back to
the day position, pull the lever toward you.
Electrochromic Day/Night Rearview Mirror
with Compass and Map Lamps (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have an automatic electrochromic
day/night rearview mirror with a compass and map lamps.
This mirror automatically changes to reduce glare from
headlamps behind you. A time delay feature prevents
rapid changing from the day to night positions while
driving under lights and through traffic.

2-67 Low Oil Level Light
Your engine is equipped
with an oil level monitoring
system. When the ignition is
turned to ON, the LOW
OIL LEVEL light will
briefly come on.
If the light does not flash, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there's a problem.
If the light stays on, stop the vehicle on a level surface
and turn the engine off. Check the oil level using the
engine oil dipstick. (See ªEngine Oilº in the Index.)
The oil level monitoring system only checks oil level
during the brief period between key on and engine
crank. It does not monitor engine oil level when the
engine is running. Additionally, an oil level check is
only performed if the engine has been turned off for an
extended period of time, allowing the oil normally in
circulation to drain back into the oil pan.
Change Oil Light
The CHANGE OIL light
should come on briefly as a
bulb check when you start
the engine. If the light
doesn't come on, have the
vehicle serviced right away.
If the CHANGE OIL light comes on and stays on after
you start the engine, have the oil changed.
For additional information see ªEngine Oil, When to
Changeº in the Index. To reset the GM Oil Life
System,
see ªHow to Reset the Change Oil Lightº in
the Index.
