Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Inadvertent Power Battery Saver
This feature is designed to protect your vehicle's battery against drainage from the interior lamps, trunk lamp,
glove
box lamp, cigarette lighters or the garage door
opener. When the ignition is turned
OFF, the power to
these features will automatically
turn off' after 10 minutes
(three minutes if a new car has 15 miles or less). Power
will be restored for an additional
10 minutes if either
door is opened, the trunk
is opened or the courtesy lamp
switch is turned
on.
Battery Guard Storage
This feature is for long term use and must be
programmed through the
DIC while the ignition is in the
RUN position. Battery guard storage protects the battery
by placing the vehicle in a storage mode so that the
radio, amplifiers, instrument cluster
and Remote Keyless
Entry
(RKE) will not drain the battery over a long
period of time.
To begin programming, press the INFO and RESET
buttons at the same time for approximately two seconds.
Press the RESET button to answer "yes" and press the
INFO button to indicate
a "no" response. The first prompt
to appear relates to the automatic
door
locks.
This feature can be bypassed by pressing the
INFO button. The STORAGE MODE? prompt appears
next.
To select, press the RESET button. ENABLE
STORAGE
MODE? will then appear. A yes or no
response must be give.n. If the
INFO (no) button is
pressed, the DISABLE STORAGE MODE? prompt will
appear. Oncc again,
a yes or no response is required.
Once the battery guard has been programmed, your
vehicle
will enter the storage mode approximately
20 minutes after the ignition key has been turned off.
The RKE will also be disabled at this point. The RKE
will reactivate when a door or the trunk is opened,
however.
if your vehicle is left inactive for another
20 minutes the RKE will re-enter the storage mode.
Your vehicle will stay in the storage mode until the
ignition
key is turned out of LOCK. The system will
"wake-up" when the door key is inserted into the door
however, your vehicle
will remain in the storage mode.
The ignition must

out of LOCK before the battery

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Driver’s Outside Auto-Dimming Rearview
Mirror (Option)
The driver’s side outside mirror will adjust for the glare
of headlamps behind you. This feature is controlled by
the on and off settings on the electrochromic mirror. See
“Electrochromic Daymight Rearview Mirror“ earlier
in
this section.
Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex mirror’s
surface
is curved so you can see more from the driver’s
seat. This mirror does not have
a dimming feature.
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
1 could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
Storage Compartments
Glove Box
The glove box is located in front of the passenger seat.
To lock the glove box door, insert the oval key in the
lock cylinder and turn
it clockwise. Turn the key
counterclockwise to unlock the door.
Map Focket
The driver’s door may have a map/storage compartment.
You may also have a storage compartment on the
passenger’s door.

Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow
or any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater
and defroster will work far better, reducing the
chance of fogging the inside of the windows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, adjust
the fan to the highest speed for a few moments
before driving off. This helps clear the intake
outlets of snow and moisture, and reduces the
chance of fogging the inside of the windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats clear of
objects. This helps circulate air throughout your
vehicle.
I
Heated Windshield (Option)
The heated windshield will remove ice or frost in
cold weather.
1. Remove snow that is piled up on the windshield.
2. Start your Cadillac and leave it in PARK (P).
3. Press the DE-ICE button. A light will come on to
tell you it is working. Try not to use other electrical
equipment while the system is working. The
system will
go off after a four-minute heating cycle.
If you shift out of PARK (P), the system will only cycle
for two minutes. If you want
it to cycle again, press the
button. It will
go on for two-minute cycles after that.
If the windshield has cleared before the cycle is over,
you can turn it off by pressing the button again.
Use the defroster feature to clear fog from the
windshield as previously described.
There is a metal film in the windshield which will block
out some radio or microwave signals. Therefore, the
heated windshield will reduce the useful range of
devices such as garage door openers and radar detectors.
(In certain states, radar detectors are legal.)
Do not use the DE-ICE button if your vehicle has a
cracked windshield. A crack will not allow the system to
function properly. Have the windshield repaired before using the DE-ICE button again.
