1996 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme battery location

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
PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N). All doors will unlock
automatically when the ignition is turned
off.
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 PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N) and the ignition is on. Note that the
door must be opened, then closed,
or the door will not
automatically relock.
If you don’t want the doors to unlock automatically
when you
turn the ignition off, you can remove the Lock
Control fuse in the instrument panel fuse block. See
“Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the Index.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keys, open your
door and set the locks from inside. Then get out and
close the door.
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 transmitter operates on a
radio frequency subject to Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This deVice may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

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 “Illuminated
Entry” in the Index for more details).
To lock all doors, press DOOR. To unlock the trunk,
press the vehicle symbol on the transmitter. The trunk
will only unlock
if your transaxle is in PARK (P).
Matching Transmitter(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 retailer. Remember to bring any remaining
transmitters with you when you
go to your retailer.
When the retailer matches the replacement transmitter to
your vehicle, any remaining transmitters must also be
matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the lost
transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle
can have only two transmitters matched to it.
Battery Replacement I
Under normal use, the batteries in your key chain
transmitter should last about two years.
You can tell the batteries are weak if the transmitter
won’t work at the normal range in any location. If you
have to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter
works, it’s probably time to change the batteries.
