Your vehicle has a
double-sided key that
can be used for
the ignition and
door locks.
If you ever lose your keys, your dealer will be able
to assist you with obtaining replacements.
In an emergency contact Cadillac Roadside
Service
®. SeeRoadside Service on page 493for

Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System
Your Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system
operates on a radio frequency subject to Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Rules
and with Industry Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference.
2. This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.

L(Panic Alarm):Press and release this button
to locate your vehicle. The turn signal lamps
will ash and the horn will sound three times.
Press and hold this button for more than
two seconds to activate the panic alarm. The
turn signal lamps will ash and the horn will sound
repeatedly for 30 seconds. The alarm will turn
off when the ignition is turned to ON or the alarm
button is pressed again. The ignition must be
in OFF for the panic alarm to work.
&(Power Liftgate):Press and hold this button
on the RKE transmitter to open and close the
liftgate. The taillamps will ash and a chime will
sound to indicate when the liftgate is opening and
closing.
Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each RKE 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. Remember to
bring any additional transmitters with you so that
all of them can be re-coded to match the new
transmitter. Once your dealer has coded the new
transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock
your vehicle. Each vehicle can have a maximum
of eight transmitters matched to it.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your RKE
transmitter should last about four years.
The battery is weak if the transmitter will not work
at the normal range in any location. If you have
to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter
works, it is probably time to change the battery.
Notice: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.

three times indicating that delayed locking is
active.
When all the doors are closed, the doors will lock
automatically after ve seconds. If a door is
reopened before ve seconds have elapsed, the
ve second timer will reset itself once all the doors

Power Windows
{CAUTION:
Leaving children, helpless adults, or pets

dangerous. They can be overcome from
extreme heat in warm or hot weather and
suffer permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke.
Leaving children in a vehicle with the

reasons, children or others could be badly
injured or even killed. They could operate

Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some
cities. Although your vehicle has a number of
theft-deterrent features, we know that nothing we
put on it can make it impossible to steal.
Theft-Deterrent System
The security light is
located on the
instrument panel cluster.
If the ignition is off and a door is open, the
security light will ash, reminding you to arm the
theft-deterrent system.
To arm the system, do the following:
1. Lock the door using the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter or the power door
lock switch.
2. Close all the doors. The security light will
illuminate. It should go off within approximately
30 seconds.
If a door or a liftgate is opened without a key or a
RKE transmitter, the horn will sound and the
lamps will ash for up to 30 seconds.
