Passlock - Buick 2007 Rainier Owner's Manual

Testing the Alarm
The alarm can be tested by following these steps:
1. From inside the vehicle, lower the driver's
window and open the driver's door.
2. Activate the system by locking the doors with
the power door lock switch while the door is
open, or with the remote keyless entry
transmitter.
3. Get out of the vehicle, close the door and wait
for the security light to go out.
4. Then reach in through the window, unlock the
door with the manual door lock and open the
door. This should set off the alarm.
When the alarm is set the power door unlock
switch is not operational.
If the alarm does not sound when it should but the
headlamps flash, check to see if the horn works.
The horn fuse may be blown. To replace the fuse,
see Fuses and Circuit Breakers on page 465.
If the alarm does not sound or the headlamps do
not flash, the vehicle should be serviced by
your dealer.

Passlock

Your vehicle has the Passlock
system.
®
Passlock is a passive theft-deterrent system that
enables fuel if the ignition lock cylinder is turned
with a valid key. If a correct key is not used or the
ignition lock cylinder has been tampered with,
the fuel system is disabled and the vehicle will
not start.
During normal operation, the security light will
turn off about five seconds after the key is turned
to RUN.
If the engine stalls and the security light flashes,
wait about 10 minutes until the light stops
flashing before trying to restart the engine.
Remember to release the key from START as
soon as the engine starts.
If the engine does not start after three tries, the
vehicle needs service.
