Pontiac 1998 Firebird - Ashtray and Lighter

When carrying large or heavy items, it is a good idea to
open
the panel and place the items in the rear area.
I A CAUTION:
An improperly stored close-out panel could be
thrown about the vehicle during a collision
or
sudden maneuver. You or others could be
injured.
If you remove the cover, always store it
outside your vehicle. When you put it back,
always be sure that it is securely reattached.
Ashtray and Lighter
Lift up the cover to open the ashtray. To remove it, lift
up on either side of the ashtray.
If you have an automatic
transmission, the ashtray is near the front
of your
console.
If you have a manual transmission, the ashtray
is near your cupholder.
NOTICE:
Don’t put papers and other things that burn into
your ashtray. If you do, cigarettes or other
smoking materials could set them on fire,
causing damage.
To use the lighter, push it in all the way and let go.
When it’s ready, it will
pop back by itself.
