Ignition Switch
A E
With the key in the ignition switch, you can turn the
switch to five positions:
ACCESSORY (A): This is an “on” position in which
you can operate some
of your electrical power
accessories. Press in the ignition switch as you
turn the
top
of it toward you.
LOCK (B): This is the only position in which you can
remove the key. This locks your steering wheel, ignition
and transaxle (on automatic models).
OFF (C): This position unlocks the steering wheel,
ignition, and transaxle (on automatic models), but does
not send electrical power to any accessories. Use this
position
if your vehicle must be pushed or towed, but
never try to push-start your vehicle.
A warning chime
will sound if
you open the driver’s door when the
ignition is
off and the key is in the ignition.
RUN (D): This is an “on” position to which the switch
returns after you start your engine and release the
switch. The switch stays
in the RUN position when the
engine is running. But even when the engine
is not
running, you can use
RUN to operate your electrical
power accessories, and to display some instrument panel
warning lights.
START (E): Use this for starting the engine. When the
engine starts, release the key.
The ignition switch will
return to
RUN for normal driving.
Note that even
if the engine is not running, the positions
ACCESSORY and RUN are “on” positions that allow you
to operate your electrical accessories, such as the radio.

Audio Systems
The following pages describe the audio systems
available for your Oldsmobile and how to get the best
performance from them. Please read about the system in
your vehicle.
Setting the Clock
No matter which audio system you have in your vehicle,
setting
the clock is easy.
1. With the ignition on and radio either on or off, press
SET. The SET indicator will appear on the digital
display for five seconds.
2. You must begin to set the clock to the correct hour
and minute during those five seconds.
If your audio system does not have
a compact disc
player:
Press
SCAN to set the hour.
Press SEEK to set the minute. If
your system has
a compact disc player:
Press
SCAN to set the hour.
Press the left SEEK arrow to decrease minutes or the
right
SEEK arrow to increase minutes.
If your vehicle is left with the ignition turned off for
over
24 days, battery power to your clock, audio system
and Remote Lock Control
(if you have this option) will
be turned
off to reduce battery drain. When the ignition
is turned on again, battery power will be resupplied.
However, under these conditions, it will be necessary
to
reset the clock and audio system settings. The
Delco-LOC
II@ feature on vehicles equipped with the
optional
