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

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

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.

Theft Parking at Night
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your Pontiac 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 Pontiac 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. 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?
0 Put your valuables in a storage area, like your trunk
or glove box.
0 Lock the glove box.
0 Lock all the doors except the driver’s.
0 Then take the door key with you.

Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger’s side mirror is GO~V~X.
A convex mirror’s surface is curved so you can see more
from the driver’s seat.
Convenience Net (Option)
t
Your vehicle may have a convenience net. You’ll see it
on the back wall of the trunk.

Put small loads, like grocery bags, behind the net. It can
help keep them from falling over during sharp turns or
quick starts and stops.
The net isn’t for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the
trunk as far forward as you can.
You can unhook the net so that it will lie flat when
you’re not using it. On two-door models, push the net
down and hook
it under the plastic hooks.
Storage and Compartments
Storage Armrest
To use the storage area, fold down the armrest. Press the
latch on the front edge and pull up.
If you have a
cupholder, flip it forward to use it.
You may also have an armrest in the rear. It has
a
storage area for small items. To open the storage area, press the latch on the front
edge and pull up. The console has a cupholder, cassette
tape storage and a coinholder.

nunk Access Panel Accessory Outlet
If you have split rear seats,
you may have a trunk
access panel
for storing long
objects that may
not fit
completely in your trunk,
like skis. Pull your rear
armrest
down, then pull the
latch on the trunk access
panel.
If your vehicle has a center console, you have a 12-volt
outlet.
It is on the passenger side, near the floor. Open
the cover to use the outlet.
I NOTICE:
Adding some electrical equipment to your vehicle
can damage it or keep other things from working
as they should. This wouldn’t be covered by your
warranty. Check with your dealer before adding
electrical equipment and never use anything
