Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window.
2. Activate the system by locking the doors with the
power door lock switch while the door is open, or
with the remote keyless entry transmitter.
3. Get out of the vehicle, close the door and wait for the
SECURITY light to go out.
4. Then, reach in through the window, unlock the door
with the manual door lock and open the door.
This should set off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound when it should, check to
see if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown.
To replace the fuse, see ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in
the Index.
If the alarm does not sound, or the exterior lamps do not
flash, see your dealer.
PASS-Key
III
Your vehicle is equipped
with the PASS
-Key III
(Personalized Automotive
Security System)
theft
-deterrent system.
PASS
-Key III is a passive
theft
-deterrent system.
This means you don't have to do anything different to
arm or disarm the system. It works when you insert or
remove the key from the ignition.
Your PASS
-Key III system operates on a radio
frequency subject to Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules and with Industry Canada.

2-21
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 harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications to this system by other than an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
PASS
-Key III uses a radio frequency transponder in the
key that matches a decoder in your vehicle.
When the PASS
-Key III system senses that someone is
using the wrong key, it shuts down the vehicle's starter
and fuel systems. The starter will not work and fuel will
stop being delivered to the engine. Anyone using a
trial
-and-error method to start the vehicle will be
discouraged because of the high number of electrical
key codes.When trying to start the vehicle, if the engine does not
start and the SECURITY light comes on, the key may
have a damaged transponder. Turn the ignition off and
try again.
If the engine still does not start, and the key appears to
be undamaged, try another ignition key. At this time,
you may also want to check the fuse (see ªFuses and
Circuit Breakersº in the Index). If the engine still does
not start with the other key, your vehicle needs service.
If your vehicle does start, the first key may be faulty.
See your dealer who can service the PASS
-Key III to
have a new key made.
It is possible for the PASS
-Key III decoder to learn
the transponder value of a new or replacement key.
Up to 10 keys may be programmed for the vehicle.
This procedure is for learning additional keys only.
Canadian Owners: If you lose or damage your keys,
only a GM dealer can service PASS
-Key III to have new
keys made. To program additional keys you will need
two current driver's keys (black in color). You must add
a step to the following procedure. After Step 2, repeat
Steps 1 and 2 with the second current driver's key.
Then continue with Step 3.

2-38
Turn Signal and Lane Change Indicators
The turn signal has two upward (for right) and two
downward (for left) positions. These positions allow you
to signal a turn or a lane change.
To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up
or down. When the turn is finished, the lever will
return automatically.
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster will flash in
the direction of the turn or
lane change.
To signal a lane change, just raise or lower the lever
until the arrow starts to flash. Hold it there until you
complete your lane change. The lever will return by
itself when you release it.If the arrows flash very fast as you signal a turn or a lane
change, a signal bulb may be burned out and other
drivers won't see your turn signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an
accident. See ªBulb Replacementº in the Index. If the
arrows don't go on at all when you signal a turn, check
the fuse. See ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in the Index.
Turn Signal On Chime
If your turn signal is left on for more than 3/4 of a mile
(1.2 km), a chime will sound at each flash of the turn
signal. To turn off the chime, move the turn signal lever
to the off position.

2-57
Accessory Power Outlet
The accessory power outlet (12-volt) is located inside
the overhead console (if equipped) and at the rear of the
front console (if equipped). If your vehicle is equipped
with an overhead console, access the accessory power
outlet by sliding the access door to the side. If your
vehicle is equipped with a floor console, the power
outlet is at the rear of the floor console. Remove the
protective cap which covers the outlet.
The outlet can be used to plug in electrical equipment
such as a cellular telephone, CB radio, etc. Follow the
proper installation instructions that are included with
any electrical equipment you install.
Certain power accessory plugs may not be compatible to
the accessory power outlet and could result in blown
vehicle or adapter fuses. If you experience a problem see
your dealer for additional information on the power
accessory plugs.The accessory power outlet will only operate when the
ignition key is in ON and for 10 minutes after turning
the ignition OFF. If you would like the accessory power
outlet to operate regardless of ignition position, and for
unlimited periods of time, see ªEngine Compartment
Bussed Electrical Centerº in the Index or see
your dealer.
Leaving an accessory on for a long period of time, or a
fuse in the wrong place, can drain the vehicle's battery.
NOTICE:
When using the accessory power outlet, the
maximum load of any electrical equipment
should not exceed 15 amps.

2-106
If the sun comes out, or it becomes cloudy, or if you turn
on your headlamps, you may need to adjust the HUD
brightness using the HUD dimmer control. Polarized
sunglasses could make the HUD image harder to see.
Clean the inside of the windshield as needed to remove
any dirt or film that reduces the sharpness or clarity of
the HUD image.
Spray household glass cleaner on a soft, clean cloth.
Wipe the HUD lens gently, then dry it. Do not spray
cleaner directly on the lens, because the cleaner fluid
could leak inside the unit.If you can't see the HUD image when the ignition is on,
check to see if:

The HUD unit is covered,

the HUD dimmer control is adjusted correctly,

the HUD image is adjusted to the proper height, or

a fuse in the fuse panel may have blown. See ªFuses
and Circuit Breakersº in the Index.
If the HUD image is not clear, it could be too bright.
Move the HUD dimmer control further downward.
You may need to clean the windshield and HUD lens.
Your windshield is part of the HUD system. If you ever
have to have a new windshield, be sure to get one
designed for HUD. If you don't, the HUD image may
look blurred and out of focus.

6-64 Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses and circuit
breakers. This greatly reduces the chance of damage
caused by electrical problems.
Look at the silver
-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical size
and rating.
The MaxiFuses are located in two Bussed Electrical
Centers (BEC), one located near the engine compartment
on the passenger's side and the other under the rear seat on
the driver's side. If a MaxiFuse should blow, have your
vehicle serviced by your dealer immediately.
Removing Fuses
You will find a fuse puller attached in both of the BEC.
Snap the wide end of the fuse puller on to the fuse, at
the side indentations holding the puller and pull the
fuse out.Engine Compartment Bussed Electrical
Center (BEC)
As mentioned above, the
front BEC is located in the
front of the engine
compartment on the
passenger's side. Lift the
cover to gain access.
Fuse 22 or 23 can be moved to the outer position to
enable the accessory power outlet or cigarette lighter
when the ignition is not on. See your dealer for
additional assistance, if needed.
