Oldsmobile 1997 88 - Door Locks

Door Locks
I
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers
-- especially children -- can easily
open the doors and fall out. When a door is
locked, the inside handle won’t open it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked
door when you
slow down or stop your vehicle.
This may not be
so obvious: You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in
a
crash if the doors aren’t locked. Wear safety belts
properly, lock your doors, and you will be far
better
off whenever you drive your vehicle.

To lock the door from the
inside, slide the locking
lever down.
To unlock the door, slide
the locking lever up.
Power Door Locks
With power door locks, you can lock or unlock all the
doors of your vehicle from the driver’s or front
passenger’s door lock switch.
The switch on each rear door works only that door’s
lock. It won’t lock
(or unlock) all of the doors -- that’s
a safety feature.
There
are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
From the outside, use your door key or remote lock
control transmitter, if your vehicle has this option.
