1997 Oldsmobile Aurora seat adjustment

Shoulder Belt Tightness Adjustment
Your car has a shoulder belt tightness adjustment
feature. If the shoulder belt seems too tight, adjust it
before you begin to drive.
1. Sit well back in the seat.
2. Start pulling the shoulder belt out.
-
3. Just before it reaches the end, give it a quick pull.
4. Let the belt go back all the way. You should hear a
slight clicking sound. If you don't, the adjustment
feature won't set, and you'll have to start again.
5.
I . . ..
Now you can add a small amount of slack. Lean
forward slightly, then sit back.
If you've added more
than
1 inch (25 mm) of slack, pull the shoulder belt
out as you did before and start again.
If you move around in the vehicle enough, or if you pull
out the shoulder belt, the belt will become tight again. If
this happens, you can reset it.

Front Turn Signal
The turn signal bulb is on the inboard edge of the
headlamp assembly.
To replace a bulb, do the following:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Remove the headlamp assembly if you need more
hand clearance.
Reach in and press the locking tab while twisting the
bulb assembly one-quarter of a turn
counterclockwise.
Replace the bulb and reverse Step
2 to reassemble.
If you removed the headlamp assembly, reassemble
it by aligning the pin and tightening the two bolts to
secure
it.
Headlamp Aiming
Your vehicle has the composite headlamp system. These
headlamps have horizontal and vertical aim indicators.
The aim has been pre-set at the factory and should need
no further adjustment.
If your vehicle is damaged in an accident and the
headlamp aim seems
to be affected, see your Aurora
retailer. Headlamps on damaged vehicles may require
recalibration
of the horizontal aim by your Aurora retailer.
To check the aim, the vehicle should be properly
prepared as
follows:
e
0
e
The vehicle must have all four tires on a perfectly
level surface.
The vehicle should not have
any snow, ice or mud
attached to it.
There should not be any cargo or loading of the
vehicle, except it should have a full tank
of gas and
one person or
160 lbs. (75 kg) on the driver’s seat.
Tires should be properly inflated.
I NOTICE:
To make sure your headlamps are aimed
properly, read all the instructions before
beginning. Failure to
follow these instructions
could cause damage to headlamp parts.
State inspection stations will allow a vertical reading of
plus
0.76 degrees or minus 0.76 degrees from the center
of the bubble.
It is recommended that the upper limit not exceed plus
0.4 degrees from the center of the bubble. Other drivers
may flash their high beams at
you if your adjustment is
much above plus
0.4 degrees.
