Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The system works when you turn the key to the
RUN (11) position. The key uses a transponder that
matches an immobilizer control unit in your vehicle.
The correct key will start the vehicle.
When the system senses that someone
is using the
wrong key, it may start but it will not continue
to run. If
someone tries to start your vehicle again or
uses another
key during this time, the shutdown will start over again.
This discourages someone from randomly trying
different keys with different transponders in an attempt
to make a match.
If the engine cannot be started, turn the key in the
ignition
to the RUN (11) position. Wait approximately
two seconds; then start your vehicle again.
If the engine still won’t start, try another key. You may
also want
to check the fuses (see “Fuses and Circuit
Breakers” in the Index). If the engine doesn’t start with
the other key, your vehicle needs service. If your vehicle
does start, the first key may be faulty. See your
Catera dealer.
If you lose or damage a key or you cannot start the
engine, see your Catera dealer.
If a key is lost, bring all
remaining keys
to your dealer for re-programming. In
an emergency, call the Cadillac Roadside Service
Program at 1-800-882-1112.
New Vehicle “Break-In’’
NOTICE:
Your modern Catera doesn’t need an elaborate
“break-in.” But it will perform better in the long
run if you follow these guidelines:
Don’t drive at any one speed -- fast or
slow
-- for the first 500 miles (805 km).
Don’t make full-throttle starts.
200 miles (322 km) or so. During this time
your new brake linings aren’t yet broken
in. Hard stops with new linings can mean
premature wear and earlier replacement.
Follow this breaking-in guideline every
time you get new brake linings.
See “Towing a Trailer” in the Index for
more information.
Avoid making hard stops for the first
0 Don’t tow a trailer during break-in.
