THEFT
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities. Although your
Cadillac has a number
of theft deterrent features, we know that nothing
we put on it can make it impossible to steal. However, there
are ways you
can help.
Kev in the ignition: If you walk away from your vehicle with the keys
inside, it’s an easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
-- so don’t
do it.
When you park your Cadillac and open the driver’s door, you’ll hear
a
chime reminding you to remove your key from the ignition and take it
with you. Always do this. Your steering wheel will be locked, and
so will
your ignition and transaxle. And remember to lock the doors.
Parking at Night: Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables out
of sight. Put them in a
storage area, or take them with you.
Parking Lots: If you park in a lot where someone will be watching your
vehicle, it’s best to lock it up and take your keys. But what if you have
to
leave your ignition key? What if you have to leave something valuable in
your vehicle?
Put your valuables in a storage area, like your trunk or glove box.
0 Lock the glove box.
0 Lock all the doors except the driver’s.
0 Then take the door key with you.
