Heating and Venfilafion
When you don’t need to cool the outside
air, use these next settings.
You can
leave the air as it is or heat it.
The air conditioner compressor doesn’t
run in these settings. This reduces the
engine load, resulting in improved fuel
economy (gas mileage)
.
VENT: For mild outside temperatures,
when little heating or cooling is needed,
push
VENT. Air flow is through the
instrument panel outlets. Slide the
temperature control lever to a
comfortable level.
HEAT: When outside temperatures are
cold, push
HEAT. Slide the temper-
ature control lever to a comfortable
level. For maximum heating, slide it all
the way to the right.
This setting will send most of the heated
air through the ducts near the floor. The
rest will come out of the defroster vents
and side window defogger vents.
Defogging and Defrosting
There are two settings for clearing your
windows. For each setting, adjust the
temperature control
as desired. The air
conditioner compressor will run in
these settings to remove moisture from
the air when the temperature
is above
freezing.
tv th This setting allows half of
e air to flow to the floor
heater ducts, and half to
go to the windshield and
side window vents located
in the windshield pillars.
Use this setting to warm
passengers while keeping
the windshield clear. The
DEF setting directs 90% of
the air
through the defroster vents and the side
window vents, and
10% to the floor.

Service & Appearance Cure
GM -
Service
Your Oldsmobile dealer knows your
vehicle best and wants you to be happy
with it. We hope you’ll go to your dealer
for all your service needs. You’ll get
genuine GM parts and GM-trained and
supported service people.
We hope you’ll want to keep your GM
vehicle all GM. Genuine GM parts have
one
of these marks.
Doing Your Own Service Work
If you want to do some of your own
service work, you’ll want to get the
proper Oldsmobile Service Manual. It
tells you much more about how to
service your Oldsmobile than this
manual can.
To order the proper service
manual, see the
Index under Service
Publications.
You should keep a record with all parts
receipts and list the mileage and the
date
of any service work you perform.
See the
Index under Maintenance
Record.

Tire Inspection and Rotation
To make your tires last longer, have
them inspected and rotated at the
mileages recommended in the
Maintenance Schedule. See the
Index
under Scheduled Maintenance
Services.
Use this rotation pattern. After
the tires have been rotated, adjust
the front and rear inflation pressure as
shown on the Tire-Loading Information
label. Make certain that all wheel nuts
are properly tightened. See the
Index
under Wheel Nut Torque.
A
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on
the parts to which it is
fastened, can make the wheel nuts
become loose after a time. The
wheel could come
off and cause an
accident. When you change a
wheel, remove any rust or dirt from
places where the wheel attaches to
the vehicle. In an emergency, you
can use a cloth or a paper towel to
do this; but be sure to use a scraper
or wire brush later, if you need to,
to get all the rust or dirt
off. (See
the
Index under Changing a Flat
Tire. 1

Customer Satisfaction Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are
important to your dealer and
Oldsmobile. Normally, any problems
with the sales transaction or the
operation of your vehicle will be
resolved by your dealer’s Sales or
Service Departments. Sometimes,
however, despite the best intentions of
all concerned, misunderstandings can
occur. If your concern has not been
resolved to your satisfaction, the
following steps should be taken:
STEP ONE: Discuss your problem
with a member of dealership
management. Complaints can often be
quickly resolved at that level. If the
matter has already been reviewed with
the Sales, Service or
Parts Manager,
contact the owner of the dealership or
the General Manager.
STEP TWO: If after contacting a
member of Dealership Management, it
appears your problem cannot be
resolved by the dealership without
further help, contact the Oldsmobile
Customer Assistance Network by
calling 1-800-442-6537. In Canada,
contact GM of Canada Customer
Assistance Center in Oshawa by calling
1-800-263-3777 (English) or
1-800-263-7854 (French).
In Mexico, call 254-17-86. In Puerto
Rico or
U.S. Virgin Islands, call
1-809-763-1315. In all other overseas
locations, contact GM International
Export Sales in Canada by calling
1-416-644-41 12. For
prompt assistance, please have the
following information available to give
the Customer Assistance Representative:
Your name, address, telephone
Vehicle Identification Number (This number
is available from the vehicle
registration or title, or the plate

a decision is rendered (or 47 days if you
did not first contact your dealer or
Oldsmobile)
.
We encourage you to use this program
before or instead of resorting to the
courts. We believe it offers advantages
over courts
in most jurisdictions
because it is fast, free of charge, and
informal (lawyers are not usually
present, although you may retain one at
your expense if you choose). Arbitrators
make decisions based on the principles
of fairness and equity, and are not
required to duplicate the functions of
courts by strictly applying state or
federal law. If you wish to go to court,
however, we do not require that you
first file a claim with
BBB AUTO
LINE** unless state law provides otherwise.
Whatever your preference
may be, remember that if you are
unhappy with the results of
BBB AUTO
LINE, you can still go to court because
an arbitrator's decision is binding on GM
but not on you, unless you accept it.
Eligibility is limited by vehicle
age/mileage and other factors. For
further information concerning the
program, call the
BBB at
1-800-955-5100. You may also cal

Center.
