Buick 2000 Century - Manual (Page 86)

2-17
If you accidentally use a key that has a damaged or
missing resistor pellet, the starter won’t work. The
SECURITY light will then come on. But you don’t have
to wait three minutes before trying another ignition key.
See your dealer or a locksmith who can service the
PASS
- Key II to have a new key made.
If you’re ever driving and the SECURITY light comes
on, you will be able to restart your engine if you turn it
off. Your PASS
- Key II system, however, is not working
properly and must be serviced by your dealer. Your
vehicle is not protected by the PASS
- Key II system.
If you lose or damage a PASS - Key II ignition key, see
your dealer or a locksmith who can service PASS - Key II
to have a new key made. In an emergency, call the
Buick Premium Roadside Assistance Center at
1
- 800 - 252 - 1112. In Canada, call 1 - 800 - 268 - 6800.
New Vehicle “Break - In”
NOTICE:
Your vehicle doesn’t need an elaborate
“break
- in.” But it will perform better in the
long run if you follow these guidelines:
D Don’t drive at any one speed
-- fast or
slow -- for the first 500 miles (805 km).
Don’t make full - throttle starts.
D 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.
D Don’t tow a trailer during break - in.
See “Towing a Trailer” in the Index for
more information.
