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. 
Key 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 transmission.  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. 
Lock the glove  box. 
Lock  all the  doors  except the driver’s. 
0 Then  take the door  key with  you.
