1997 CADILLAC ELDORADO buttons

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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.
Press and hold the appropriate button on the universal
transmitter. The red light
comes on while the signal is
being transmitted. Note that
the universal transmitter is disabled when the
VALET button
inside the glove box is activated. For
more information, see “Security Override” earlier in
this section.
Also note that if the hand-held transmitter appears to
program
the universal transmitter but does not open
your garage door,
and if the garage door opener was
manufactured after 1995, the garage door opener may
have
a “rolling code” system. A rolling code system
changes the code
of the garage door opener every time
you open or close the garage door.
To determine if you have this system, press the button
on the universal transmitter that you have programmed
already.
If the red light on the universal transmitter
flashes rapidly for
one or two seconds and then
stops flashing, the garage door opener has a rolling
code system.

3. Press the training button on the garage door opener
receiver for one or two seconds.
4. Return to the universal transmitter in your vehicle
and press the universal transmitter button
you have
already programmed for two
to three seconds. Press
the button again to make sure that the universal
transmitter has been trained
to the garage door
opener receiver.
The garage door opener should now recognize the
universal transmitter.
You may either use the universal
transmitter or the hand-held transmitter to open the
garage door.
If after following these instructions you still have
problems training the
garage door opener, consult your
Cadillac dealer.
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.

The speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour
(mph) and kilometers per hour (kmh). The
odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven,
in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers
(used
in Canada).
YOU may wonder what happens if a vehicle has to have a
new odometer installed. The new one may read the
correct mileage. This
is because your vehcle’s computer
has stored
the mileage in memory.

For vehicles equipped with an analog cluster (not shown),
fuel data can be obtained by pressing the INFO button.
See
“Analog Control Buttons” later in this section.
The
fuel data panel tells you all you need to know about
the fuel economy and how far you can travel with the
fuel remaining. Press
the
AVG button to display the average
mile-per-gallon
(AVG MPG). You can also display it in
metric units by pressing the
ENGMET button.
When AVG
MPG is selected, the total distance is
divided by the total fuel used.
When the
INST button (Instantaneous Fuel Economy) is
selected, you will see what the
fuel economy is at that
instant. The computer takes a new reading twice every
second.
It will show economy up to 70 miles-per-gallon
(or
2 L per 100 km).
To reset the average fuel economy, press the
INFORMATION button until the AVG MPG is
displayed on the DIC. Press and hold the RESET button
until both the fuel data center and
DIC display reads 0.0.
The RANGE display shows how far the computer thinks
you can travel with the fuel that is in the
tank. The
computer does not
know what driving conditions will be
like for
the rest of your trip, so the range is estimated
based
on the recent fuel economy. Therefore, the range
reading may change as your driving habits change.
Going from city to highway driving may increase the
range reading.
If the range display shows
LO, you should stop for fuel
as soon as possible. Your computer needs enough data
for the MNGE reading to work.
