1994 BUICK PARK AVENUE interior lights

Illuminated Entry System (Option)
With this option, when you
push the door handle
button,
a light around the
door lock will come on for
about
25 seconds.
You’ll be able to see where to put the door key when it’s
dark, and the lights inside your Buick will go on.
They’ll
go off when you start your engine, or when 25
seconds have passed. If you have the Remote Keyless
Entry System option, it can make the illuminated entry
system work too. (See Remote Keyless Entry System in
the Index.)
If
you have this option, your interior lights will
automatically shut off after a
10 minute period if a door
is left ajar. This feature
is designed to help eliminate
battery wear down.
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your Buick 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 Buick 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 and 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.

Courtesy Lights
When any door is opened, several lights go on. They
make it easy for you
to enter and leave the car. You also
can
turn these lights on by sliding the panel lights lever
to INT (interior).
Time Out Feature
The interior lights will automatically shut off after a 10
minute period if a door is left open. This feature is
designed
to help eliminate battery wear down.
Twilight Sentinel (Option)
Twilight Sentinel turns your
lights on and
off by sensing
how dark it is outside.
To operate
it, leave the light
switch off and move the
Twilight Sentinel control to
any position but MIN. If you
move the control all the way to
MAX, your lights
will remain on
for three minutes after you turn off your
engine.
If you move the control almost all the way in the
other direction,
so it’s just on, the lights will go off
quickly when you turn off your engine. You can change
this delay time from only a few seconds to three
minutes.
Please don’t cover the light
sensor. If you cover the
sensor,
it will read “dark”
~ and your lights will come
on. It is
on top of the
instrument panel, on the
driver’s side
of the
defroster outlets.
