Features & Controls
Power Door Locks
You can lock or unlock all doors of your
vehicle from the driver or passenger
door lock switch.
On 4-dOOr models, the switch on each
rear door works only that door’s lock. It
won’t lock (or unlock) all of the
doors-that’s a safety feature.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, open your
door and set the locks from inside, then
get out and close the door.
Automatic Door Locks
Just close your doors and turn on the
ignition. All of the doors will lock when
you move your shift lever out
of P
(Park) or N (Neutral). Each time you
close your doors and turn on the
ignition, the doors will lock
automatically. 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 automatically
unlock when the ignition is turned off.
If you don’t want the doors to
automatically unlock when you turn the
ignition off, you can remove the Lock
Control fuse in the Component Center.
See the
Index under Fuses G Circuit
Breakers .
Remote Lock Conlrol (OPTION)
If your Oldsmobile has this option, you
can lock and unlock your doors or
unlock your trunk from up to
30 feet
(9 m) away using the key chain
transmitter supplied with your vehicle.

a radio frequency subject to Federal
