The master key can be
used for the ignition
as well as all door locks,
the liftgate lock and the
storage compartments.
If you need a new key, contact your Oldsmobile dealer,
who can obtain the correct key code. In an emergency,
call Oldsmobile Roadside Assistance. See “Roadside
Assistance” in the Index for more information.
Your vehicle has the PASS - Key
R
III vehicle theft
system. The key has a transponder in the key head that
matches a decoder in the vehicle’s steering column.
If a replacement key or any additional key is needed,
you must purchase this key from your dealer. The key
will have PK3 stamped on it. Keep the bar code tag that
came with the original keys. Give this tag to your dealer
if you need a new key made.
Any new PASS - Key III key must be programmed before it
will start your vehicle. See “PASS - Key
R
III” in the Index
for more information on programming your new key.
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.
