1995 PONTIAC PONTIAC ECO mode

Operation
Press UNLOCK once to
unlock the driver’s door.
Press
UNLOCK again
within
five seconds to
unlock all the doors. The
interior lamps will come on
(see ‘‘Sustained Interior
Illumination” in the Index
for more details).
To lock all doors, press DOOR. To unlock the tmnk,
press the trunk symbol on the transmitter. The trunk will
only unlock
if your transaxle is in PARK (P) and your
ignition is in
LOCK, OFF or ACC.
Matching ab-ansmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another
transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter
is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through
your dealer. Remember
to bring any remaining
transmitters with you when you go to your dealer. When
the dealer matches the replacement transmitter to your
vehicle, the remaining transmitters must also be
matched. Once the new transmitter
is coded, the lost
transmitter will not unlock
your vehicle.
You can match a transmitter to as many different
vehicles as you own, provided they are equipped with
exactly the same model system. (General Motors offers
several different models of these systems on their
vehicles.) Each vehicle can have only two transmitters
matched to it.
See your dealer to match transmitters to another vehicle.

displayed “through” the
windshield. The
HUD also shows these lights when they are
lit on
the instrument panel:
Turn Signal Indicators
0 High-Beam Indicator Symbol
Low Fuel Symbol
0 Oil Warning Symbol
0 Coolant Temperature Symbol
Charging System Symbol
When you sit straight in your seat, the HUD image will appear straight ahead near the front bumper.
When the ignition key is turned
to RUN, all possible
HUD images will come on. Then the Head-Up Display
will operate normally.
NOTICE:
Although the HUD image appears to be near the
front
of the vehicle, do not use it as a parking aid.
The
HUD was not designed for that purpose. If
you try to use it that way, such as in a parking
lot, you may misjudge distance and run into
something.

from the cold. But do
it as little as possible. Preserve the
he1 as long as you can. To help keep warm, you can get
out
of the vehicle and do sume fairly vigorous exercises

or so until help comes.

Two labels on your vehicle show how much weight it
may properly carry. The Tire-Loading Information label
is on
the rear edge of the driver’s door on four-door
models and inside the trunk lid on two-door models. The label tells you the proper
size, speed rating and
recommended inflation pressures
for the tires on your
vehicle.
It also gives you important information about
the number of people that can be in your vehicle and the
total weight
you can carry. This weight is called the
vehicle capacity weight and includes the weight
of all
occupants, cargo and all nonfactory-installed options.

The other label is the Certification label, found on the
rear edge of the driver’s door. It tells you the
gross
weight capacity of your vehicle, called the GVWR (Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating). The GVWR includes the weight of
the vehicle, all occupants, fuel and cargo. Never
exceed the GVWR for your vehicle or the Gross
Axle
