Power Door Locks
Push the power door lock
switch
to lock or unlock all
the doors at once.
Automatic Door Locks
Just close your doors and turn on the ignition. All of
your doors will lock when you move your shift lever out
of “P” (Park) or “N” (Neutral). If someone needs to get
out while the vehicle
is running, have that person use the
manual or power lock. When the door is closed again,
it
will lock automatically as long as the shift lever is out of
“P” (Park) or “N” (Neutral). All doors will unlock
automatically when the ignition
is turned off.
If you don’t want the doors to unlock automatically
when you
turn the ignition off, you can remove the fuse
marked Lock Control located in the component center.
See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the Index.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keys, open your
door and set the locks from inside. Then get
out and
close
the door.
Remote Trunk Release (Option)
The remote trunk release
button is
in the glovebox. It
works only when the
transaxle
is in Park.
If you have the Remote
Keyless Entry System
Option,
it will also unlock
your trunk.
A CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into
your vehicle. You can’t see or smell
CAUTION: (Continued)

2. Lift off the front cover, bottom half first.
3. Remove and replace the batteries. Put them in as the
direction under the batteries indicate.
4. Replace the front cover. Make sure the cover is on
tightly,
so water won’t get in. Replace the screw in
the back cover, if there is one. If there is no screw,
snap the covers together.
5. Check the operation of the transmitter.
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.
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.
Lock all the doors except the driver’s.
0 Then take the door key with you.
