remote start PONTIAC PONTIAC 1995 Owners Manual

Sustained Interior Illumination
Your courtesy lamps will come on and stay on for a set
time whenever you:
Open a door.
Press UNLOCK on the Remote Lock Control
(if equipped).
Press DOOR on the Remote Lock Control
(if equipped).
If
you open a door, the lamps will stay on while it’s open
and then turn
off automatically about 18 seconds after
you close
it. If you don’t open a door, the lamps will
turn off after about 18 seconds, unless you pressed
UNLOCK on the Remote Lock Control. If you pressed
UNLOCK and don’t open a door, the lamps will turn off
after about
55 seconds.
Sustained interior illumination includes a feature called
theater dimming. With theater dimming, the lamps don’t
just turn off at the end of the delay time. Instead, they
slowly dim during the delay time until they
go out. The
delay time
is cancelled if you turn the ignition key to
RUN or START, so the lamps will go out right away.
When the ignition is on, Sustained Interior Illumination is
inactive, which means the courtesy lamps won’t come
on.
Rearview Mirror Reading Lamps
These lamps go on when you open the doors. When the
doors are closed, turn them on and off with the switches.

3.
Get the vehicles cbse enough so the jumper cables
can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t touching
each other.
If they are, it could cause a ground
connection you don’t want. You wouldn’t be able to
start your Pontiac, and the bad grounding could
damage the electrical systems.
You could be injured
if the vehicles roll. Set the
parking brake firmly on each vehicle. Put an
automatic transaxle
in PARK (P) or a manual
transaxle in NEUTRAL
(N).
Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Turn off all
lamps that aren’t needed, and radios. This will avoid
sparks and help save both batteries. And it could
save your radio!
NOTICE:
If you leave your radio on, it could be badly
damaged.
The repairs wouldn’t be covered by
your warranty.
4.. Open the hoods and locate the batteries.
5. Find the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals on
each battery. Your Pontiac has a remote positive
(+)
jump starting terminal. The terminal is on the same
side
of the engine compartment as your battery. You
should always use the remote positive (+) terminal
instead
of the positive (+) terminal on your battery.
To uncover the remote positive (+) terminal, lift the
red plastic cap.
