Oldsmobile 2001 Silhouette - Manual (Page 105)

2-13
If your vehicle has the optional dual power sliding
doors, your remote keyless entry transmitter will have
two buttons that have a van symbol on it. The van
symbol on the left is for the driver’s side sliding door
and the van symbol on the right is for the passenger’s
side sliding door. See “Power Sliding Door” later in
this section.
If the power sliding door(s) is locked, first unlock all
doors, then press the van symbol to open the power
sliding door. Press the van symbol again to close the
sliding door(s). See “Remote Driver’s Door and All
Door Unlock” earlier in this section and “Power Sliding
Door” later in this section.
You can operate the power sliding door(s) with the
remote keyless entry transmitter only when the
power sliding door override switch(es) on the overhead
console is turned off. See “Power Sliding Door” later
in this section.
If your vehicle’s fuel filler door is opened, the driver’s
side power sliding door will not open completely.
Do not try to force the door. Once the fuel filler
door is closed, the driver’s side sliding door can be
opened normally.
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 four transmitters
matched to it.
See your dealer to match transmitters to another vehicle.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about three years.
You can tell the battery is 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 battery.
