Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another
transmitter
from unlocking yourwehicle. If a transmitter
is lost
or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through
your dealer. Once the
new transmitter is coded, the lost
transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle
can have only two transmitters matched to
it.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your key chain
transmitter should last about
four years.
You can tell the battery is weak
if the transmitter won't
work at the normal range in any location. If you have to
get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it's probably time to change the battery.

~ ~~~
Your car has an automatic pull-down feature that
helps close the trunk electronically. Your fingers
can be trapped under the trunk lid as it goes

would need someone to help you free them. Keep
your fingers away from the trunk lid as you close
it and as it

Theft
Vehicle heft 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 leave 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?
0 Put your valuables in a storage area, like your trunk
or glove box.
0 Lock the glove box.
Lock all the doors except the driver’s.
0 Then take the door key and remote lock control key
chain with you.

SECURITY
If your ignition is off and
any door is open, the
SECURITY light will flash
reminding you to activate
the system (the light will
also flash if the battery has
been disconnected or
reconnected).
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door using the power door lock or the
Keyless Entry system. The
SECURITY light should
come on and stay on.
3. Close all the doors. The SECURITY light should go
off within approximately 30 seconds.
The horn will sound and the lamps will flash for several
minutes when the door or
trunk is opened without the
key or Keyless Entry system. The
horn also sounds if
the locks
are damaged. Remember,
the theft-deterrent system won’t activate
if
you lock the doors with a key or use the manual door
lock. It activates only if
you use a power door lock
switch or the Keyless Entry system.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident: I
0 The vehicle should be locked with the door key after
the doors are closed if you don’t want to activate the
theft-deterrent system.
0 Always unlock a door with a key or use the Keyless
Entry system. (Pressing the unlock button on the
Keyless Entry transmitter disables the theft-deterrent
system.) Unlocking
a door any other way will
activate the alarm. Cycling
the ignition without
disarming the theft-deterrent system will also
activate the alarm.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock any door
with your key.
You can also turn off the alarm by using
the Keyless Entry system. The alarm won’t stop
if you
try to unlock a door any other way.

Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window, then
get
out of the vehicle, keeping the door open.
2. From outside of the vehicle, with the door open, lock
the vehicle using the power door lock or
the Keyless
Entry system
and close the door. Wait 30 seconds.
3. Reach in and unlock the door using the manual lock
and open the door. The horn will sound and the
headlamps will flash.
If the alm does not sound when it should, check to see
if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown. To
replace the fuse, see “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the\

Index.
If the fuse does not need to be replaced, you may
need to have your Cadillac serviced.
To reduce the possibility of theft, always activate the
optional theft-deterrent system when leaving your vehicle.
