Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NOTICE:
If you damage the covering for the driver’s or the
right front passenger’s air bag, the bag may not
work properly. You
may have to replace the air
bag module in the steering wheel
or both the air
bag module and the instrument panel for the
right front passenger’s air bag.
Do not open or
break the
air bag coverings.
Servicing Your Air Bag-Equipped Vehicle
Air bags affect how your vehicle should be serviced.
There are parts
of the air bag system in several places
around your vehicle. You don’t want the system to
inflate while someone is working on your vehicle.
Your dealer and the Cavalier Service Manual have
information about servicing your vehicle and the
air
bag system. To purchase a service manual, see “Service
and Owner Publications”
in the Index.
I
If your vehicle ever gets into a lot of water -- such as
water
up to the carpeting or higher -- or if water enters
your vehicle and soaks the carpet, the
air bag controller
can be soaked and ruined.
If this ever happens, and then
you start your vehicle, the damage could make the
air
bags inflate, even if there’s no crash. You would have to
replace the air bags
as well as the sensors and related
parts. If your vehicle is ever in a flood, or if it’s exposed
to water that
soaks the carpet, you can avoid needless
repair costs by turning
off the vehicle immediately.
Don’t let anyone start the vehicle, even to tow it, unless \
the battery cables are first disconnected.
For up to 10 minutes after the ignition key is
turned
off and the battery is disconnected, an air
bag can still inflate during improper service. You
can be injured if you are close to an air bag when
it inflates. Avoid yellow connectors. They are
probably part of the air bag system. Be sure to
follow proper service procedures, and make sure
the person performing work for you is qualified
to do
so.
The air bag system does not need regular maintenance.

Leaving young children in a vehicle with the
ignition key is dangerous
for many reasons.
A child or others could be badly injured or
even killed.
They could operate power windows
or other
controls or even make the vehicle move. Don't leave the keys in
a vehicle with young children.

When
a new vehicle is delivered, the dealer removes the
key tag from the key, and gives it to the first owner. Each
tag has
a code on it that tells your dealer or a
qualified locksmith how to make extra keys. Keep the
tag
in a safe place. If you lose your key, you'll be able to
have a new one made easily using the tag.
NOTICE:
Your vehicle has a number of new features that
can help prevent theft. But you can have a lot of
trouble getting into your vehicle if
you ever lock
your key inside. You may even have to damage
your vehicle to get in.
So be sure you have an
extra key.

The following functions are available with the remote
keyless entry system:
LOCK: All doors will automatically lock when the
LOCK button on the transmitter
is pressed. The interior
lamps stay on for two seconds after all
of the doors
are closed.
UNLOCK: The driver’s door will unlock automatically
when the UNLOCK button
on the transmitter is pressed.
If the UNLOCK button is pressed again within five
seconds, all remaining doors will unlock. The interior
lamps will stay
on for 40 seconds or until the ignition is
turned
on.
Trunk Release: The trunk will unlock anytime when
the vehicle symbol
on the transmitter is pressed and
the ignition is
OFF. The interior lamps will come on
for 40 seconds or until the ignition switch is turned on.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry 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, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have only two transmitters
matched to it.
You can match your transmitter to as many
1998 General
Motors vehicles as you own, as long as they have the
same remote keyless entry system. Contact your dealer
for assistance with this.

Theft
Vehicle theft is big busines s, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle 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.
If you leave 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 vehicle 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. If you have an automatic transaxle, taking your
key out also locks your transaxle. And remember to lock
the doors.
Parking at Night
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.
