Manual Door Locks
To manually lock a door from the inside,
move the door-mounted lock control to
the locked position (red rectangle not
showing). To manually unlock the door,
move the lock control to the unlocked
position (red rectangle showing).
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
Rear Window Wind Effects
On occasion when one of the rear win-
dows is down, you may hear a beating
or pulsing sound. While this may be dis-
tracting to some people, it does not indi-
cate a problem, nor is it dangerous in
any way. If this condition is objection-
able, simply open or close the rear win-
dow slightly, or open the front window on
the same side of the vehicle. This will
eliminate the wind effect immediately.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
Saturn Security System/Remote
Keyless Entry (if equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with this fea-
ture, you can use your key chain remote
transmitter (or “keyfob”) to lock and
unlock your doors and liftgate from a
distance of up to 30 ft. (9.7 m).
When using the keyfob, be sure there is
nothing between you and the vehicle
that could block the transmitter’s signal.
If the keyfob does not work in the nor-
mal range, it is probably time to change
the battery. Under normal use, the bat-
tery should last several years.
Regardless of the battery, the range of
the transmitter will vary over time and
from one location to another.
Additional features of the Saturn
Security System include active security
system arming, programmable passive
security system arming and illuminated
entry.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
Entry Lighting
When you press the UNLOCK button on
your keyfob, the dome lamps and exteri-
or lamps (if equipped with the Power
Package) will illuminate for 20 seconds.
After a door is opened, the dome lamps
will remain on as long as the door is
open. Once you close the door, the lamp
will darken after 20 seconds or until you
turn the ignition key to the RUN position.
This feature allows you to see inside
and around your vehicle before you
open the door and provides extended
illumination once inside the vehicle.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
