2002 CADILLAC SEVILLE Owners Manual

1-3 Memory Seat, Mirrors and Steering
Wheel (Option)
The controls for these
features are located on
the driver's door panel.These buttons are used to program and recall memory
settings for the driver's seating and outside rearview
mirror positions. Use the following steps to program
each button:
1. Adjust the driver's seat (including the seatback
recliner, lumbar, head restraint and shoulder belt
height adjustments), both outside mirrors and the
steering wheel to a comfortable position.
2. Press the SET button.
3. Within five seconds, press button 1 for Driver 1.
A single beep will sound through the driver's side
front speaker to let you know that the position has
been stored.

1-4
A second mirror, seating and steering wheel position
can be programmed by repeating the above steps and
pressing button 2 (for driver 2). Each time a memory
button is pressed, a single beep will sound. Each time
button 1 or 2 is pressed and released while the vehicle is
in PARK (P), the memory positions will be recalled. If
the vehicle is not in PARK (P), the memory buttons
must be pressed and held to recall the stored positions.
If you use the remote keyless entry transmitter to enter
your vehicle, automatic seat and mirror movement will
occur. The numbers on the back of the transmitters,
1 and 2, correspond to the numbers on the buttons on
the door panel.
When the key is placed in the ignition in OFF if you
have entered the vehicle without using the remote
keyless entry transmitter, the seats and mirrors will
automatically adjust to the programmed position of
the last driver.
To stop recall movement of the memory feature at
any time, press one of the power seat controls or
memory buttons.Two personalized exit positions can be set by first
recalling the driving position (by pressing 1 or 2), then
positioning the steering wheel and seat in the desired
exit positions and then pressing and releasing the
MEMORY SET button and, within five seconds,
pressing the EXIT button. With the vehicle in
PARK (P), the exit position for the previously set
driver can be recalled by pressing the EXIT button.
The mirrors, power lumbar and shoulder belt height
positions will not be stored or recalled for the
exit positions.
Further programming for automatic seat and mirror
movement can be done using the Driver Information
Center (DIC). You can select or not select the following:

Automatic seat and mirror movement when the
vehicle is unlocked with the remote keyless entry
transmitter, or

automatic seat and mirror movement when a key is
placed in the ignition.
For programming information, see ªVehicle
Programming and Personalization Featuresº in
the Index.

1-5 Heated Seats
The front seat controls
are located in the center
console. The rear seat
controls are located
on the rear doors.
Push the button once for a high setting, twice for a low
setting, and a third time to turn off the heated seat. The
LO setting warms the seatback and cushion until the seat
approximates body temperature. The HI setting heats the
seat to a slightly higher temperature.
The heated seats can only be used when the ignition is
turned on. The heating elements in the seats
automatically turn off when the vehicle's ignition is
turned off.
Only the outboard rear seat positions have
heating elements.
Reclining Front Seatbacks
The reclining front
seatback controls are
located on the outboard
side of each front seat.
Press the top of the control forward or rearward to
adjust the seatback angle. Push the control up or
down to adjust the head restraint and shoulder belt
height positions.
See ªHead Restraintsº later in this section.

1-6
But don't have a seatback reclined if your vehicle
is moving.
CAUTION:
Sitting in a reclined position when your vehicle is
in motion can be dangerous. Even if you buckle
up, your safety belts can't do their job when
you're reclined like this.
The shoulder belt can't do its job. In a crash you
could go into it, receiving neck or other injuries.
The lap belt can't do its job either. In a crash the
belt could go up over your abdomen. The belt
forces would be there, not at your pelvic bones.
This could cause serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the vehicle is in
motion, have the seatback upright. Then sit well
back in the seat and wear your safety belt properly.

1-7 Head Restraints
The switches to move your
head restraints are located
on the outboard side of each
front seat.
Use this switch to move a front head restraint up or
down. Lift up on the switch to move the head restraint
up. Press down on the switch to move the head restraint
down. The top of the head restraint should be closest to
the top of your head. This position helps reduce the
chance of a neck injury in a crash. When you move a
front seat head restraint up or down, the shoulder belt
height changes.

1-8
The head restraints tilt forward and rearward also.
To tilt the head restraints forward, grasp the top of the
restraint and move it forward to where you want it to go
until you hear a click. It will then be locked into that
position until you need to move it again. Pulling forward
past the last position will allow the restraint to return to
an upright position.
The rear head restraints are adjustable, also. They tilt
forward and rearward like the front head restraints, but
they do not move up and down.Safety Belts: They're for Everyone
This part of the manual tells you how to use safety belts
properly. It also tells you some things you should not do
with safety belts.
And it explains the Supplemental Inflatable Restraint
(SIR), or air bag system.
CAUTION:
Don't let anyone ride where he or she can't wear
a safety belt properly. If you are in a crash and
you're not wearing a safety belt, your injuries
can be much worse. You can hit things inside the
vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be seriously
injured or killed. In the same crash, you might
not be if you are buckled up. Always fasten your
safety belt, and check that your passengers' belts
are fastened properly too.

1-9
CAUTION:
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area,
inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to
ride in any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and safety belts. Be sure
everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a
safety belt properly.
Your vehicle has a light
that comes on as a reminder
to buckle up. See ªSafety
Belt Reminder Lightº in
the Index.In most states and Canadian provinces, the law says to
wear safety belts. Here's why: They work.
You never know if you'll be in a crash. If you do have a
crash, you don't know if it will be a bad one.
A few crashes are mild, and some crashes can be so
serious that even buckled up a person wouldn't survive.
But most crashes are in between. In many of them,
people who buckle up can survive and sometimes walk
away. Without belts they could have been badly hurt
or killed.
After more than 30 years of safety belts in vehicles,
the facts are clear. In most crashes buckling up does
matter ... a lot!

1-10 Why Safety Belts Work
When you ride in or on anything, you go as fast as
it goes.
Take the simplest vehicle. Suppose it's just a seat
on wheels.
Put someone on it.
