Automatic Door Locks
(if equipped)
For your safety, all doors will automatical-
ly lock when the shift lever is moved out
of Park with an automatic transmission, or
when the vehicle speed is greater than 5
mph (8 km/h) with a manual transmission.
This feature cannot be disabled; however,
you can personalize the unlock features
by using the Driver Information Center.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
Theft-Deterrent System
Your Cobalt is equipped with the
PASS-Key
®
III theft-deterrent system,
which prevents vehicle theft if the igni-
tion lock cylinder is forced to rotate with-
out the correct key. If someone attempts
to start the vehicle without authorization
from the PASS-Key
®
III system, the
vehicle’s fuel system or starter will be
disabled.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
OnStar
®
(if equipped)
If your vehicle is OnStar-equipped, the
OnStar system provides in-vehicle safe-
ty, security and phone services, avail-
able 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
These services are easily accessed
through the three OnStar buttons in
your vehicle.
The OnStar system offers hands-free
phone service using a microphone,
located on the headliner between the
sun visors and the vehicle’s audio
speakers.
For more information about OnStar
features, refer to the OnStar Owner’s
Guide and enclosed audio CD located
in your glove box.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
Passenger Air Bag Status
Indicator (if equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
Passenger Sensing System located in
the front passenger seat for the front
air bag. There is also a passenger air
bag status indicator located on the
instrument panel center stack.
See Sections 1 and 3 of your Owner Manual.
Note:
It is recommended that children
not be placed in the front passenger
seat, even with the Passenger Sensing
System. All children should be secured
in a rear seat, including an infant riding
in a rear-facing infant seat, a child riding
in a forward-facing child seat and an
older child riding in a booster seat.
Child Restraints (LATCH)
Your vehicle is equipped with LATCH
anchors, and may have top tethers for
use with a LATCH-compatible child
restraint. If your child restraint is not
compatible with the LATCH system,
you may still use it by installing the child
restraint with the seat belt system.
Choose a child restraint that is
appropriate for the child’s age and size
(weight and height).
See Section 1 of your Owner Manual.
