glove box PONTIAC GRAND-AM 1995 Owners Manual

Glove Box
P’ !
, :.. 3-
Use one of the vehicle’s keys to lock and unlock the
glove box.
To open, pull the glove box handle toward
you.
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your Pontiac 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.
Key in the Ignition
If you walk away from 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 Pontiac 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 steering wheel will be locked, and so will your
ignition. If you have an automatic transaxle, taking your
key out also locks your transaxle. 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
If you park in a lot where someone will be watching
your vehicle, it’s best to lock
it up and take your keys.
But what
if you have to leave your ignition key? What if
you have to leave something valuable in your vehicle?
Put your valuables in a storage area, like your trunk
or glove box.
Lock the glove box. , I, ’ .- ’;
0 Lock all the doors except the driver’s.
0 Then take the door key with you.

Front Readinmap Lamps (Option)
If your vehicle has a sunroof, it will have a rearview
mirror with lamps built in. The lamps
go on when you
open the doors. When the doors
are closed, turn the
lamps on and
off with the switches located below the
face
of the mirror.
Rear Reading Lamps (Option)
A
I1
These overhead lamps and the interior courtesy lamps
will come on when you open the doors.
To
turn on a reading lamp when the doors are closed,
press the button. Press it again to turn
off the lamp.
Trunk Lamp
This lamp comes on when you open-your trunk.
Dome Lamp Bulb Change
It may not be obvious how to change your dome lamp
bulb. Here’s how: Grasp the center front and center rear
portion of the housing and squeeze firmly but gently.
The housing should pop off.
If this doesn’t work, you may need to use a small,
flat-head screwdriver under the side of the housing to
help pry it
off.
Battery Rundown Protection
Your Pontiac is equipped with a Battery Rundown
Protection feature designed to protect
your vehicle’s
battery.
When any interior lamp (trunk, reading, footwell or
glove box) is left on when the ignition is turned off, the
Battery Rundown Protection system will automatically
shut the lamp
off after 20 minutes. This will avoid
draining the battery.

At Least Once a Year
Key Lock Cylinders
Lubricate the key lock cylinders with the lubricant specified in Part
D.
Body Lubrication
Lubricate all body door hinges. Also lubricate all hinges and latches, including those for the hood, trunk lid,
glove box door and console door. Part
D tells you what
to use. More frequent lubrication may be required when
exposed to a corrosive environment.
Starter Switch
1. Before you start, be sure you have enough room
around the vehicle.
2. Firmly apply both the parking brake (see “Parking
Brake” in the Index
if necessary) and the regular
brake.
NOTE: Do not use the accelerator pedal, and be
ready to turn off the engine immediately if it starts.
3. On automatic transaxle vehicles, try to start the
engine in each gear. The starter should work only in
PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N).
If the starter works in
any other position, your vehicle needs
service.
On manual transaxle vehicles, put the shift lever in
NEUTRAL (N), push the clutch down halfway and try to start the engine. The starter should work only
when the clutch
is pushed down all the way to the
floor. If the starter works when the clutch isn’t
pushed all the way down, your vehicle needs service.
