Pressing the VALET button
located inside
of the glove
box will disable the use of
the trunk, fuel door and
garage door opener.
Pressing this button again
will make these features
reusable. Locking the glove box with
the door key
will also help to secure
your vehicle.
Note that the Keyless Entry transmitter can not be used
to open the trunk or fuel door if the VALET button is
pressed
in.
Trunk Lid Automatic Pull-Down Feature
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
down. Your fingers could be injured, and
you
would need someone to help you free them. Keep
your fingers away from the trunk lid as you close
it and as it is going down.
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 leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it’s an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves -- so
don’t do it.

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

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The transmitter will learn and transmit the frequencies
of most current transmitters and is powered by your
vehicle’s battery and charging system.
This device complies with Part
15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
;ramming thc n 1111
Do not use the universal transmitter with any garage
door opener that does not have the “stop and reverse”
safety feature. This includes
any garage door opener
model manufactured before April
1, 1982.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the garage
door you are programming. Your
vehicle’s engine should be turned
off while
programming the transmitter. Follow these steps to
program up to three channels:
1. If you have not previously programmed a universal
transmitter channel, proceed to Step
2. Otherwise,
hold down the two outside buttons
on the universal
transmitter until the red light begins to flash rapidly
(approximately
20 seconds). Then release the
buttons. This procedure initializes the memory and
erases any previous settings for all three channels.
2. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter against the
bottom surface of the universal transmitter
so that
you can still see the red light.
3. Decide which one of the three channels you want to
program. Using both hands, press the hand-held
transmitter button and the desired button on the
universal transmitter. Continue to hold both buttons
through Step
4.
4. Hold down both buttons until you see the red light
on the universal transmitter flash rapidly and then
stop. The rapid flashing, which could take up to
90 seconds, indicates that the universal transmitter
has been programmed. Release both buttons once the
light starts to flash rapidly.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If you have trouble programming the universal
transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly as described and that the battery in the
hand-held transmitter is not dead. If you still cannot
program it, rotate the hand-held transmitter end over end
and try again. The universal transmitter may not work
with older garage door openers that do not meet current
Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you cannot
program the transmitter after repeated attempts, consult
your Cadillac dealer.
Be sure to keep the original hand-held transmitter
in case
you need to erase and reprogram the universal transmitter.
Note to Canadian Owners: During programming, the
hand-held transmitter may stop transmitting after one or
two seconds. If you
are programming from one of these
transmitters, you should press and re-press the button on
the hand-held transmitter every two seconds without
ever releasing the button on
the universal transmitter.
Release both buttons when the red light on the universal
transmitter begins to flash rapidly.
Operating the Transmitter
Press and hold the appropriate button on the universal
transmitter. The red light comes on while the signal is
being transmitted.
Note that the effective transmission range of the universal
transmitter may differ from the hand-held transmitter and
from one channel to another. Also note that the universal
transmitter is disabled when the VALET button inside of
the glove box is activated. For more information, see
“Security Override” earlier in this section.
Erasing Channels
To erase all three programmed channels, hold down the
two outside buttons until the red light begins to flash.
Individual channels cannot be erased, but can be
reprogrammed using the procedure for programming the
transmitter explained earlier.
Accessories
Accessories for the universal transmitter are available
from the manufacturer of the unit.
If you would like
additional information please call

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.
