etc.) If so, then this “Securing a Child Restraint in the
Right Front Seat Position” part doesn’t apply to your
vehicle.
To learn how to secure a child restraint in the
right front seat, read the

Safety Belt Supplement.
It comes with every new
Oldsmobile first sold
in Canada.

Illuminated EntryExit System
When you lift the outside handle of either front door or
open either rear door, the lamps inside your vehicle will
go on. These lamps will fade out after about 40 seconds,
or when the ignition
is turned on after all doors have
been closed.
If the ignition was recently turned off, the
lamps will fade
out after four seconds. These lamps will
also go on when you press the
DOOR or UNLOCK
button on the optional Remote Lock Control transmitter.
Rear Door Security Locks
Your Oldsmobile is
equipped with rear
door security locks
that help prevent
passengers from
opening the rear
doors
of your vehicle from
the inside.
If the ignition has been off for less than two minutes,
the lamps inside your vehicle will stay
on for about
15 seconds after your key is removed from the ignition
to provide an illuminated exit. To use one of these locks:
1. Use a key to move the lock all the way up.
2. Close the door.
3.. Do the same thing to the other rear door lock.

The rear doors of your vehicle cannot be opened from
inside when this feature
is in use. If you want to open a
rear door when the security lock is on:
1. Unlock the door from the inside.
2. Then open the door from the outside.
If you don’t cancel the security lock feature, adults or
older children who ride in the rear won’t be able to open
the rear door from the inside. You should let adults and
older children know how these security locks work, and
how to cancel the locks.
To Cancel the Rear Door Lock:
1. Unlock the door from the inside and open the door
from the outside.
2. Use a key to move the lock all the way down.
3. Do the same for the other rear door.
The rear door locks will now work normally.
Remote Lock Control (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.
Your Remote Lock Control operates on a radio
frequency subject to Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules.
