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.
-
1. Use the round end of the door key or a coin to pry
open the transmitter.
2. Remove the battery and replace it with a CR2032
battery. Using the wrong size battery can damage the
transmitter. Make sure the battery is positioned with
the “plus”
(+) facing down.
3. Align the internal pieces of the transmitter, including
the cover. Snap together
to reinstall.

stops), it could be flooded with

briefly but then stops again, do the same thing.

Mirrors
Electrochromic DaylNight Rearview Mirror
Your Cadillac has an electrochromic day/night rearview
mirror.
This mirror automatically changes to reduce glare from
headlamps behind you. A photocell
on the back of the
mirror senses when it
is becoming dark outside. Another
photocell built into the mirror surface senses when
headlamps are behind you.
At night, when the glare is too high,
the mirror will
gradually darken to reduce glare (this change may take
a
few seconds). The mirror will return to its clear daytime
state when the glare is reduced.
