Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter is lost or stolen. a replacement can be
purchased through your dealer. Once your dealer has
coded the new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not
unlock
your vehicle. Each vehicle can have only two
transmitters matched to
it.
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry 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.
I NOTICE: I
When replacing the battery, use care not to touch
any
of the circuitry. Static from your body
transferred
to these surfaces may damage
the transmitter.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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.
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.
When you park your Cadillac and open the driver‘s
door, you’ll hear a chime reminding
you to remove
your key from the ignition and take
it with you. Always
do this. Your steering wheel will be locked, and so
will your ignition and transaxle. And remember to
lock the doors.
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables
out of sight.
Put them
in a storage area, or take them with you.
If you park in a lot where someone will be watching
your vehicle,
it’s best to lock it up and take your keys.
But what
if you have to leave your ignition key? What
if you have to leave something valuable in your vehicle?
Put your valuables in a storage area, like your trunk
or glove box.
Lock the glove box.
0 Lock all the doors except the driver’s.
Then take the door key and remote keyless entry
transmitter with you.
If the ignition is off and
any door is open, the
SECURITY light will flash.

NOTICE:
Your modern Cadillac doesn’t need an elaborate
“break-in.” But it
will perform better in the long
run if you follow these guidelines:
0 Don’t drive at any one speed -- fast or
slow -9 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.
0 Don’t tow a trailer during break-in. See
“Towing a Trailer” in the Index for more
information.
0 Avoid making hard stops for the first
