The best way to protect the fetus is to protect the
mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it's more
likely that the fetus won't be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to making
safety belts effective is wearing them properly.
Right Front Passenger Position
To learn how to wear the right front passenger's
safety belt properly, see ªDriver Positionº earlier in
this section.
The right front passenger's safety belt works the same
way as the driver's safety belt
-- except for one thing.
If you ever pull the shoulder portion of the belt out all
the way, you will engage the child restraint locking
feature. If this happens, just let the belt go back all
the way and start again.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
This part explains the Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) or air bag system.
Your vehicle has air bags
-- one air bag for the driver
and another air bag for the right front passenger.
Frontal air bags are designed to help reduce the risk of
injury from the force of an inflating air bag. But these
air bags must inflate very quickly to do their job and
comply with federal regulations.

1-28 Servicing Your Air Bag-Equipped Vehicle
Air bags affect how your vehicle should be serviced.
There are parts of the air bag system in several places
around your vehicle. You don't want the system to
inflate while someone is working on your vehicle. Your
dealer and the service manual have information about
servicing your vehicle and the air bag system. To
purchase a service manual, see ªService and Owner
Publicationsº in the Index.
CAUTION:
For up to 10 seconds after the ignition key is
turned off and the battery is disconnected, an air
bag can still inflate during improper service. You
can be injured if you are close to an air bag when
it inflates. Avoid yellow connectors. They are
probably part of the air bag system. Be sure to
follow proper service procedures, and make sure
the person performing work for you is qualified
to do so.
The air bag system does not need regular maintenance.
Rear Seat Passengers
It's very important for rear seat passengers to buckle up!
Accident statistics show that unbelted people in the rear
seat are hurt more often in crashes than those who are
wearing safety belts.
Rear passengers who aren't safety belted can be thrown
out of the vehicle in a crash. And they can strike others
in the vehicle who are wearing safety belts.

Keys
CAUTION:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the ignition
key is dangerous for many reasons. A child or
others could be badly injured or even killed.
They could operate the power windows or other
controls or even make the vehicle move. Don't
leave the keys in a vehicle with children.

Master Key Spare Key
Your vehicle comes with two master keys and one spare
key. The keys can be used for the ignition, as well as all
door locks, trunk and storage compartments.
These keys don't have key plugs. Your Oldsmobile
dealer has a code for your key and can assist you if you
need a new key.
NOTICE:
Your vehicle has a number of features that can
help prevent theft. But you can have a lot of
trouble getting into your vehicle if you ever
lock your key inside. You may have to damage
your vehicle to get in. So be sure you have an
extra key.
In an emergency contact Oldsmobile Roadside
Assistance. See ªRoadside Assistanceº in the Index
for more information.
If your vehicle is equipped with the OnStar system with
an active subscription and you lock your keys inside the
vehicle, OnStar may be able to send a command to
unlock your vehicle. See ªOnStarº in the Index for
more information.

Door Locks
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.

Passengers -- especially children -- can
easily open the doors and fall out of a
moving vehicle. When a door is locked, the
handle won't open it. You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in
a crash if the doors aren't locked. So, wear
safety belts properly and lock the doors
whenever you drive.

Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out. A child
can be overcome by extreme heat and can
suffer permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke. Always lock your vehicle
whenever you leave it.

Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down or stop
your vehicle. Locking your doors can help
prevent this from happening.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
From the outside, use your key or keyless entry
transmitter (if equipped).
From the inside, use the manual lever located above
each door handle to lock or unlock each door. Move the
lever forward to lock a door and rearward to unlock it.

2-7 Power Door Locks
Press the power door lock
switch located on either
front door near the handle to
lock or unlock all the doors.
The rear doors do not have power door lock switches.
Push the manual lever located above each rear door
handle forward to lock and rearward to unlock
each door.
Last Door Closed Locking
This feature allows the doors to be locked while the
passengers are leaving the vehicle. It also provides a
brief time period after all the doors are closed,
but before the doors lock, in which the doors may
be reopened.
Last door closed locking is activated by either pressing
one of the power door lock switches located on the front
doors inside the vehicle or by pressing LOCK on the
remote keyless entry transmitter (if equipped). After
pressing one of the power door lock switches or the
keyless entry LOCK once, three chimes will be heard.
The three chimes indicate that the last door closed
locking has been activated.
If you wish to let the last door closed locking feature
complete the locking cycle, 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.
You can customize the last door closed locking feature
to enable or disable it. If disabled, the doors will lock
immediately when a power door lock switch is pressed.

2-9 Programmable Automatic Door Locks
Programmable automatic door locks is a standard
feature intended to provide enhanced security and
convenience by automatically locking and unlocking
vehicle doors. The automatic locking and unlocking
of the vehicle will occur if the ignition key is in ON and
the driver's door is closed when the vehicle is shifted
out of PARK (P).
Programmable Modes

Mode 2: Automatic all door lock when the transaxle is
shifted out of PARK (P). No automatic door unlock.
Mode 3: Automatic all door lock when the transaxle is
shifted out of PARK (P). Automatic all door unlock
when the transaxle is shifted into PARK (P).
Mode 4: Automatic all door lock when the transaxle is
shifted out of PARK (P). Automatic driver's door only
unlock when the transaxle is shifted into PARK (P).
Before your vehicle was shipped from the factory, it was
programmed to Mode 3. The mode to which your

instructions listed here or program the next feature
available on your vehicle).
4. After an initial transaxle cycle, each additional cycle
will advance the operating mode by one, starting
from the current operating mode.
5. If cycled beyond Mode 4, the vehicle will enter
operating Mode 1. When the door lock switch is
released, the vehicle will remain in the most recent
operating mode.
The mode you selected is now set. You can either
exit the programming mode by following the
instructions above or program the next feature
available on your vehicle.
Disconnecting the battery for up to a year will not
change or delete any previously programmed modes.

2-10 Rear-Door Security Locks

open the rear door when the security lock is on, unlock
the door from the inside and then open the door from
the outside.
Lockout Prevention
Lockout Prevention is a standard feature intended to
provide enhanced security and convenience. This feature
prevents a driver who has left the key in the ignition
from locking the doors using the power door lock switch
while any door is open.
This feature cannot guarantee that you will never be
locked out of your vehicle. If you don't leave the key in
the ignition, or if you use the manual door lock, you
could still lock your keys inside your vehicle. Always
remember to take your keys with you.

2-11
