A CAUTION:
I
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
I
Passengers -- especially children -- can easily open the doors
and fall out. When
a door is locked, the inside handle won’t I
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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The rear doors of your vehicle cannot be opened from inside when this
feature
is in use. If you want to open a rear door when the security lock is
on:
1. Unlock the door from the inside.
2. Then open the door from the outside.
-
If you don’t cancel the security lock feature, adults or olaer children who
ride in the rear won’t be able to open the rear door from the inside. You
should let adults and older children know
how these security locks work,
and how to cancel the locks.
-
To cancel the rear door lock:
1. Unlock the door from the inside and open the door from the outside.
2. Move the lever all the way up.
3. Do the same for the other rear door.
The rear door locks will now work normally.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keys, open your door and set the -
locks from inside. Then get out and close the door.
If your vehicle has a theft deterrent system, see “Theft Deterrent” in the
Index.
Central Door Unlocking System
You can unlock all your doors from either door by holding the key in the
unlock position for a few seconds.

When the switch is in
the "On" position, an
amber indicator light
will illuminate.
Only
the driver's window
control switches will
operate the power
windows. This feature
~ is useful when you're
transporting small
children and you don't
want them using the
power windows.
When your vehicle is in the Retained Accessory Power
(RAP) mode, the
window lock function will not lock the windows.
HORN
To sound the horn, just press the center of the steering wheel.
TILT WHEEL
A tilt steering wheel allows you to adjust the steering wheel before you
drive.
You can also raise it to the highest level to give your legs more room
when you exit and enter the vehicle.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Try to adjust your speed so you can “drive” through the curve. Maintain a
reasonable, steady speed. Wait to accelerate until you are out of
the
curve, and then accelerate gently into the straightaway.
When you drive into a curve at night, it’s harder to see the road ahead
of
you because it bends away from the straight beams of your lights. This is
one good reason to drive slower.
Steering in Emergencies
There are times when steering can be more effective than braking. For
example, you come over a hill and find a truck stopped in your lane, or a
car suddenly pulls out from nowhere, or a child darts out from between
parked cars and stops right in front of you. You can avoid these problems
by braking
-- if you can stop in time. But sometimes you can’t; there isn’t
room. That’s the time for evasive action
-- steering around the problem.
Your Cadillac can perform
very well in emergencies like these. First apply
your brakes. It is better to remove as much speed as you can from a
possible collision. Then steer around the problem, to the left or right
depending on the space available.
An emergency like this requires close attention and a quick decision. If
you are holding the steering wheel at the recommended 9 and 3 o’clock
positions, you can turn it a
full 180 degrees very quickly without removing
either hand. But you have to act fast, steer quickly, and just as quickly
straighten the wheel once you have avoided the object. You must then be
prepared to steer back to your original lane and then brake to a
controlled stop.
Depending on your speed, this can be rather violent for an unprepared
driver. This is one of the reasons driving experts recommend that you use
your safety belts and keep both hands on the steering wheel.
