Slide the head restraint up or down so that the top of the
restraint is closest to the top of your head. This position
reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash.
Split Folding Rear Seat (If Equipped)
This feature enables you to have direct access to the
trunk from the rear seat of the vehicle. The tabs to pull
the split folding rear seat down are located on the
outboard sides of the rear seatback.
To fold down the rear
seatback, pull the seat
tab latch forward.
To return the seat to its original position, push it back up
and make sure it latches in the locked position by
pulling and pushing on the seatback.

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.

2-11
Programmable Modes
Mode 1: Turns feature on.
Mode 2: Turns feature off.
Before your vehicle was shipped from the factory, it was
programmed to Mode 1. The mode to which your
vehicle was programmed may have been changed since
it left the factory. To determine the mode to which your
vehicle is programmed or to program your vehicle to a
different mode, do the following:
1. Open a door and put the key in the ignition.
2. Hold down the power door lock switch for more than
three seconds. This will turn the feature off or on,
depending upon the current mode selected. (If you
do not wish to change the current mode, you can
either exit the programming mode by following the
instructions listed here or program the next feature
available on your vehicle).
3. 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.Remote 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.

2-12
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.Operation
Press UNLOCK once to
unlock the driver's door and
to turn the interior lamps
on. See ªIllumination on
Remote Activationº in the
Index for more details.
Press UNLOCK again within five seconds to unlock all
doors. To lock all doors, press LOCK. To unlock the
trunk, press the trunk symbol on the remote keyless
entry transmitter. The trunk will only unlock when the
vehicle is in PARK (P).

2-17
Trunk
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.
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 lid:

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 equipped).
Remote Trunk Release
Press the button on the
left side of the instrument
panel to unlock the trunk
from inside your vehicle.
Your vehicle must be
in PARK (P).

2-18 Trunk Release Handle
NOTICE:
The trunk release handle was not designed to be
used to tie down the trunk lid or as an anchor
point when securing items in the trunk. Improper
use of the trunk release handle could damage it.
There is a glow-in-the-dark trunk release handle located
inside the trunk on the latch. This handle will glow
following exposure to light. Pull the release handle up to
open the trunk from the inside.
Trap-Resistant Trunk Kit
To help prevent a child from becoming trapped in your
trunk, you can order a trap
-resistant trunk kit from your
dealer. This kit includes:

a modified trunk latch,

a lighted release handle, and

seatback tethers (for vehicles with folding
rear seatbacks).
See your dealer for additional information.
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft
-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make
it impossible to steal. However, there are ways you
can help.

2-19 Key in the Ignition
If you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it's an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
-- so
don't do it.
When you park your vehicle and open the driver's door,
you'll hear a chime reminding you to remove your key
from the ignition and take it with you. Always do this.
Your ignition and transaxle will be locked. And
remember to lock the doors.
Parking at Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables out of sight.
Put them in a storage area, or take them with you.
Parking Lots
Even if you park in a lot where someone will be
watching your vehicle, it's still best to lock it up and
take your keys. But what if you have to leave your
ignition key?

If possible, park in a busy, well
-lit area.

Put your valuables in a storage area, like your trunk
or glove box.

Be sure to close and lock the storage area.

Close all windows.

Lock the glove box.

Lock all the doors except the driver's.

Then take the remote keyless entry transmitter
with you.

2-48 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 ACCESSORY 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 instrument panel brightness thumbwheel all
the way up or

open or close and reopen a door that is closed.
If the 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 any lights or headlamps 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.

2-53 Center Console
To open the storage area located between the driver's
and passenger's seat, press back on the front edge and
lift the cover. The console has a cassette tape and
compact disc storage area and a coinholder. The
cupholder is located below the storage area. Push down
on the door and the cupholder will come out.
Rear Console Cupholders
Two cupholders are located in the rear of the front
console. Pull down to use the cupholders.
Convenience Net (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have a convenience net. You'll see it
on 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. You can also push the net down and
secure it under the plastic hooks.
Ashtray and Cigarette Lighter
When your vehicle is delivered, the ashtray and cigarette
lighter will be in a plastic bag placed in the center
console storage area. If the ashtray and lighter are
needed, insert the ashtray and holder into the stationary
open cupholder in front of the shift lever.
The cigarette lighter outlet is located behind a flip
-out
door below the heating and air conditioning controls.
