How to Wear Safety Belts Properly
Adults
This part is only for people of adult size.
Be aware that there are special things to know
about safety belts and children. And there are
different rules for smaller children and babies. If a
child will be riding in your vehicle, see the part of this
manual called ªChildren.º Follow those rules for
everyone's protection.
First, you'll want to know which restraint systems your
vehicle has.
We'll start with the driver position.
Driver Position
This part describes the driver's restraint system.
Lap-Shoulder Belt
The driver has a lap-shoulder belt. Here's how to wear
it properly.
1. Close and lock the door.
2. Adjust the seat so you can sit up straight. To see
how, see ªSeatsº in the Index.
3. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you.
Don't let it get twisted.
The shoulder belt may lock if you pull the belt across
you very quickly. If this happens, let the belt go back
slightly to unlock it. Then pull the belt across you
more slowly.

The right front passenger's side impact air bag is in the
side of the passenger's seatback closest to the door.
CAUTION:
If something is between an occupant and an air
bag, the bag might not inflate properly or it
might force the object into that person causing
severe injury or even death. The path of an
inflating air bag must be kept clear. Don't put
anything between an occupant and an air bag,
and don't attach or put anything on the steering
wheel hub or on or near any other air bag
covering. Don't let seat covers block the inflation
path of a side impact air bag.

This key can be used for the
ignition as well as all door
locks, the liftgate lock and
the storage compartments.
If you need a new key, contact your dealer, who can
obtain the correct key code.
Your vehicle has the PASS
-Key III vehicle theft
system. The key has a transponder in the key head that
matches a decoder in the vehicle's steering column. If a
replacement key or any additional key is needed, you
must purchase this key from your dealer. The key will
have PK3 stamped on it. Keep the bar code tag that
came with the original keys. Give this tag to your
dealer if you need a new key made.Any new PASS
-Key III key must be programmed
before it will start your vehicle. See ªPASS
-Key IIIº
in the Index for more information on programming your
new key.
NOTICE:
Your vehicle has a number of new 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 even have to damage
your vehicle to get in. So be sure you have an
extra key.
If you ever do get locked out of your vehicle, call
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 ªOnStar
º 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 the optional remote
keyless entry transmitter. From the inside, use the
manual or power door locks.
To unlock either front door from the outside with the key,
insert the key and turn it toward the front of the vehicle.
To lock either front door from the outside with your key
insert the key and turn it toward the rear of the vehicle.
To unlock either front door from the inside, pull back on
the manual lever. To lock either front door from the
inside, push the manual lever forward.

2-8 Power Door Locks
From the inside, press the front of the power door lock
switch (on either front door) to unlock all doors and the
liftgate. If your vehicle has the content theft
-deterrent
system, the power door lock switch will not unlock the
doors until the system is disarmed. See ªContent
Theft
-Deterrentº in the Index for more details.
You can lock all doors and the liftgate from the inside
by pressing the rear of the power lock switch on either
front door.If your vehicle has the content theft
-deterrent system,
the power door lock switch may cause the system to
arm. See ªContent Theft
-Deterrentº in the Index for
more details.
To unlock any door or the liftgate from the outside with
your key, turn the key toward the front of the vehicle
and release it. This will only unlock that door or the
liftgate. To unlock all the doors and the liftgate at once,
insert the key into the key cylinder, then turn it toward
the front of the vehicle and hold it for one second.
With power door locks, you can lock all the doors from
the outside by inserting the key and turning the key
toward the rear of the vehicle.
Also, when the doors are locked with the power door
locks, the inside as well as the outside door handle
cannot open the doors. This safety feature prevents a
door from being accidentally opened from the inside by
moving the handle.
To override this safety feature, unlock the door you want
to open.
When the liftgate has been unlocked with the power
door locks, you won't need the key to open it. Simply
squeeze the handle above the license plate. This is also
true if you use the optional remote keyless entry
transmitter. See ªRemote Keyless Entry Systemº later
in this section.

Last Door Closed Locking
The last door closed locking feature will delay the
power locking of the doors and liftgate for up to five
seconds after exiting the vehicle, when the power door
lock switch or the lock button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter is used to lock your vehicle.
To cancel this delay, press the power door lock switch or
the lock button on the remote keyless entry transmitter
a second time immediately.
If any door or the liftgate is open when locking the
vehicle, three chimes will be heard signaling that last
door closed locking is being used. Five seconds after the
last door is closed, all of the doors will lock.
If the ignition is in RUN or ACCESSORY, this feature
will not lock the doors.
To turn the last door closed locking feature off or on, see
ªMultifunction Alarm Locks and Lighting Choicesº in
the Index.
Automatic Door Locks
All of the doors will lock automatically when you move
your shift lever out of PARK (P). All doors will unlock
automatically when the ignition is turned off while the
shift lever is in PARK (P).If someone needs to get out while you are not in
PARK (P), have that person use the manual lever or
the power door lock switch. When the door is closed
again, it will not lock automatically. Use the manual
lever or the power door lock switch to lock the door.
To change the way the automatic door locks operate,
see ªMultifunction Alarm Locks and Lighting Choicesº
in the Index.
With the automatic door locks feature, you can lock or
unlock the doors at any time, either manually or by
using the power door lock switches.
Sliding Door Delayed Locking
If either sliding door is open when you use the power
door locks to lock the vehicle, the sliding door that is
open will not lock. Normally the last door closed
locking feature will be used to lock the sliding door after
it has been closed.
When the ignition is on or if the last door closed locking
feature has been overridden or programmed to be off,
the sliding door delayed locking feature will lock your
sliding door for you. Three seconds after either sliding
door is closed, all the doors will lock.
Page 92 of 455
2-10 Lockout Deterrent
The lockout deterrent feature makes it difficult for you
to lock your keys in your vehicle. If the driver's door is
open while the keys are in the ignition, a chime will
sound and you will not be able to use your power door
lock switch to lock the vehicle.
If you don't leave the keys in the ignition or if you
use the manual door lock, you could still lock your keys
in your vehicle. Always remember to take your keys
with you.
To turn this feature off or on, see ªMultifunction Alarm
Locks and Lighting Choicesº in the Index.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keys, open your
door and set the locks from the inside. Then get out and
close the door.
Remote Keyless Entry
System (Option)
If your vehicle has this
feature, you can lock and
unlock your doors and the
liftgate from about 3 feet (1
m) up to 30 feet (9 m) away
using the remote keyless
entry transmitter supplied
with your vehicle.
