You'll be using the lap-shoulder belt. See the earlier part
about the top strap if the child restraint has one. Be sure
to follow the instructions that came with the child
restraint. Secure the child in the child restraint when and
as the instructions say.
1. Because your vehicle has a right front passenger air
bag, always move the seat as far back as it will go
before securing a forward
-facing child restraint. See
ªSeatsº in the Index.
2. Put the restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle's safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
If the shoulder belt goes in front of the child's face or
neck, put it behind the child restraint.
4. Buckle the belt. Make sure the release button is
positioned so you would be able to unbuckle the
safety belt quickly if you ever had to.

5. Pull the rest of the shoulder belt all the way out of
the retractor to set the lock.6. To tighten the belt, feed the shoulder belt back into the
retractor while you push down on the child restraint.
You may find it helpful to use your knee to push down
on the child restraint as you tighten the belt.
7. Push and pull the child restraint in different
directions to be sure it is secure.
To remove the child restraint, just unbuckle the vehicle's
safety belt and let it go back all the way. The safety belt
will move freely again and be ready to work for an adult
or larger child passenger.

2-9 Programmable Automatic Door Locks
Programmable automatic door locks is a standard
feature intended to provide enhanced security and
convenience by automatically locking and unlocking
vehicle doors. The automatic locking and unlocking
of the vehicle will occur if the ignition key is in ON and
the driver's door is closed when the vehicle is shifted
out of PARK (P).
Programmable Modes
Mode 1: No automatic door lock or unlock.
Mode 2: Automatic all door lock when the transaxle is
shifted out of PARK (P). No automatic door unlock.
Mode 3: Automatic all door lock when the transaxle is
shifted out of PARK (P). Automatic all door unlock
when the transaxle is shifted into PARK (P).
Mode 4: Automatic all door lock when the transaxle is

Before your vehicle was shipped from the factory, it was
programmed to Mode 3. The mode to which your
vehicle was programmed may have been changed since
it left the factory. To determine the mode to which your
vehicle is programmed or to program your vehicle to a
different mode, do the following:1. Close all doors and turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Press and hold the power door lock switch in the
lock position.
3. While holding the door lock switch, cycle the
transaxle out of and back into PARK (P). The door
lock and unlock functions will operate as defined,
depending upon the current mode selected. (If you
do not wish to change the current mode, you can
either exit the programming mode by following the
instructions listed here or program the next feature
available on your vehicle).
4. After an initial transaxle cycle, each additional cycle
will advance the operating mode by one, starting
from the current operating mode.
5. If cycled beyond Mode 4, the vehicle will enter
operating Mode 1. When the door lock switch is
released, the vehicle will remain in the most recent
operating mode.
The mode you selected is now set. You can either
exit the programming mode by following the
instructions above or program the next feature
available on your vehicle.
Disconnecting the battery for up to a year will not
change or delete any previously programmed modes.

2-10 Rear-Door Security Locks
Your vehicle is equipped with rear door security locks
that help prevent passengers from opening the rear doors
of your vehicle from the inside.
To use one of these locks, do the following:
1. Open one of the rear doors.
2. On the inside of the rear
door will be a lock with
a label as shown. Slide
the lever located next to
the label upward to
engage the lock.
3. Close the door.
4. Repeat the procedure on the other rear door lock.To disengage the lock(s), reverse the steps.
The rear doors on your vehicle cannot be opened from
the inside when this feature is in use. If you want to
open the rear door when the security lock is on, unlock
the door from the inside and then open the door from
the outside.
Lockout Prevention
Lockout Prevention is a standard feature intended to
provide enhanced security and convenience. This feature
prevents a driver who has left the key in the ignition
from locking the doors using the power door lock switch
while any door is open.
This feature cannot guarantee that you will never be
locked out of your vehicle. If you don't leave the key in
the ignition, or if you use the manual door lock, you
could still lock your keys inside your vehicle. Always
remember to take your keys with you.

2-18 Trunk Release Handle
NOTICE:
The trunk release handle was not designed to be
used to tie down the trunk lid or as an anchor
point when securing items in the trunk. Improper
use of the trunk release handle could damage it.
There is a glow-in-the-dark trunk release handle located
inside the trunk on the latch. This handle will glow
following exposure to light. Pull the release handle up to
open the trunk from the inside.
Trap-Resistant Trunk Kit
To help prevent a child from becoming trapped in your
trunk, you can order a trap
-resistant trunk kit from your
dealer. This kit includes:

a modified trunk latch,

a lighted release handle, and

seatback tethers (for vehicles with folding
rear seatbacks).
See your dealer for additional information.
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, 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.

2-20
Passlock
Your vehicle is equipped with the Passlock
theft
-deterrent system.
Passlock is a passive theft
-deterrent system. Passlock
enables fuel to go to the engine if the ignition lock
cylinder is turned with a valid key. If a correct key is not
used or the ignition lock cylinder is tampered with, fuel
flow is disabled.
During normal operation, the SECURITY light will
go off approximately five seconds after the key is turned
to START.
If the engine stalls and the SECURITY light flashes,
wait until the light stops flashing before trying to restart
the engine. Remember to release the key from START
as soon as the engine starts.
If the engine is running and the SECURITY light comes
on, you will be able to restart the engine if you turn the
engine off. However, your Passlock system is not working
properly and must be serviced by your dealer. Your vehicle
is not protected by Passlock at this time. You may also
want to check the fuse. See ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº
in the Index. See your dealer for assistance.
In an emergency, contact Oldsmobile Roadside
Assistance. See ªRoadside Assistanceº in the Index
for more information.
New Vehicle ªBreak-Inº
NOTICE:
Your vehicle doesn't need an elaborate
ªbreak
-in.º But it will perform better in the long
run if you follow these guidelines:

Don't drive at any one speed -- fast or
slow
-- for the first 500 miles (805 km).
Don't make full
-throttle starts.

Avoid making hard stops for the first
200 miles (322 km) or so. During this time
your new brake linings aren't yet broken
in. Hard stops with new linings can mean
premature wear and earlier replacement.
Follow this breaking
-in guideline every
time you get new brake linings.

Don't tow a trailer during break
-in.
See ªTowing a Trailerº in the Index for
more information.

2-46 Illuminated Entry
Your courtesy lamps will come on and stay on for a set
time whenever you press UNLOCK on the remote
keyless entry transmitter (if equipped).
If you open a door, the lamps will stay on while it's open
then turn off automatically about 25 seconds after you
close it. If you press UNLOCK and don't open a door,
the lamps will turn off after about 40 seconds.
Illuminated entry includes a feature called theater
dimming. With theater dimming, the lamps don't just
turn off at the end of the delay time. Instead, they slowly
dim after the delay time until they go out. The delay
time is cancelled if you turn the ignition key to ON
so that the lamps will dim out right away. When the
ignition is on, illuminated entry is inactive, which
means the courtesy lamps won't come on unless
a door is opened.
Illumination on Door Handle Activation
Illumination on door handle activation is a standard
feature intended to provide enhanced security and
convenience by allowing the driver to activate the
vehicle interior illumination without unlocking or
opening any vehicle door.The ignition must be off and the doors locked for the
illumination on door handle activation to work. The
illumination on door handle activation feature can
function in two ways.
If the driver pulls and releases any front door handle
within one second, the interior lamps will illuminate
until one of the following occurs:

The ignition is turned to ON,

the power door locks are activated or

an illumination period of 25 seconds has elapsed.
Or, if the driver pulls and holds any front door handle
for more than one second, the interior lamps will
illuminate until one of the following occurs:

The ignition is turned to ON,

the door handle is released or

an illumination period of 50 seconds has elapsed.
If during the illumination period a door is opened,
the timed illumination period will be cancelled, though
the interior lamps will remain on because a vehicle door
is open.
