remote control CADILLAC DTS 2007 1.G User Guide

Read the instructions completely before attempting
to program the transmitter. Because of the steps
involved, it may be helpful to have another
person available to assist you in programming the
transmitter.
Be sure to keep the original remote control
transmitter for use in other vehicles, as well as, for
future programming. You only need the original
remote control transmitter for Fixed Code
programming. It is also recommended that upon
the sale or lease termination of the vehicle,
the programmed buttons should be erased for
security purposes. See “Erasing Universal Home
Remote Buttons” later in this section.
When programming a garage door, it is advised to
park outside of the garage. Be sure that people
and objects are clear of the garage door or
security device you are programming.
Programming Universal Home
Remote — Rolling Code
Most garage door openers sold after 1996 are
Rolling Code units.Programming a garage door opener involves
time-sensitive actions, so read the entire procedure
before you begin. If you do not follow these
actions, the device will time out and you will have
to repeat the procedure.
To program up to three devices:
1. From inside the vehicle, press the two
outside buttons at the same time for one to
two seconds, and immediately release them.
149

2. Locate in the garage, the garage door opener
receiver (motor-head unit). Locate the “Learn”
or “Smart” button. It can usually be found
where the hanging antenna wire is attached to
the motor-head unit and may be a colored
button. Press this button. After you press this
button, you will have 30 seconds to complete
the following steps.3. Immediately return to your vehicle. Press and
hold the universal home remote button that
you would like to use to control the garage
door until the garage door moves. The
indicator light, above the selected button,
should slowly blink. You may need to hold the
button from ve to 20 seconds.
4. Immediately, within one second, release the
button when the garage door moves. The
indicator light will blink rapidly until
programming is complete.
5. Press and release the same button again.
The garage door should move, conrming
that programming is successful and complete.
To program another Rolling Code device such as
an additional garage door opener, a security
device, or home automation device, repeat
Steps 1-5, choosing a different function button in
Step 3 than what you used for the garage door
opener.
If these instructions do not work, you probably
have a Fixed Code garage door opener. Follow the
Programming instructions below for a Fixed
Code garage door opener.

5. After entering all of the switch positions, again,
rmly press and release all three buttons at the
same time. The indicator lights will turn on.
6. Press and hold the button you would like to use
to control the garage door until the garage door
moves. The indicator light above the selected
button should slowly blink. You may need to
hold the button from ve to 55 seconds.
7. Immediately release the button when the
garage door moves. The indicator light will
blink rapidly until programming is complete.
8. Press and release the same button again. The
garage door should move, conrming that
programming is successful and complete.
To program another Fixed Code device such as an
additional garage door opener, a security device, or
home automation device, repeat Steps 1-8,
choosing a different button in Step 6 than what you
used for the garage door opener.
Using Universal Home Remote
Press and hold the appropriate button for at least
half of a second. The indicator light will come
on while the signal is being transmitted.
Reprogramming Universal Home
Remote Buttons
You can reprogram any of the three buttons by
repeating the instructions.

Buttons
You should erase the programmed buttons when
you sell or terminate your lease.
To erase either Rolling Code or Fixed Code on
the Universal Home Remote device:
1. Press and hold the two outside buttons at the
same time for approximately 20 seconds, until
the indicator lights, located directly above
the buttons, begin to blink rapidly.
2. Once the indicator lights begin to blink,
release both buttons. The codes from all
buttons will be erased.

Entry Lighting
This feature turns on the courtesy lamps and the
backlighting to the door switches and to the exterior
lamp control when a door is opened or if you press
the remote keyless entry transmitter unlock button.
If activated due to the transmitter, the lighting will
remain active for about 40 seconds. Since the entry
lighting system uses the light sensor, it must be
dark outside in order for the courtesy lamps to turn
on. The courtesy lamps turn off approximately
25 seconds after the last door is closed. They will
dim to off if the ignition key is turned to RUN, or
immediately deactivate if the power locks are
activated.
Parade Dimming
This feature prohibits dimming of the digital
displays and backlighting during daylight hours
when the key is in the ignition and the headlamps
are on. This feature is fully automatic. When
the light sensor reads darkness outside and the
parking lamps are active, the digital displays
can be adjusted by turning the instrument panel
brightness knob counterclockwise to dim and
clockwise to brighten lighting.
Reading Lamps
The reading lamps are located on the overhead
console on the headliner and in the rear door
opening. These lamps come on automatically
when any door is opened and it is dark outside.
For manual operation, press the button to
turn them on. Press it again to turn them off.
If the reading lamps are left on, they automatically
shut off 10 minutes after the ignition has been
turned off.
Battery Load Management
The battery load management feature is
designed to monitor the vehicle’s electrical
load and determine when the battery is in a
heavy discharge condition. During times of high
electrical loading, the engine may idle at a higher
revolutions per minute (rpm) setting than normal
to make sure the battery charges. High electrical
loads may occur when several of the following are
on: headlamps, high beams, fog lamps, rear
window defogger, the climate control fan at high
speeds, heated seats and engine cooling fans.

If you have StabiliTrak®, the system may be
active. SeeStabiliTrak®System on page 311.
Of course, traction is reduced when water, snow,
ice, gravel, or other material is on the road.
For safety, you will want to slow down and adjust
your driving to these conditions. It is important
to slow down on slippery surfaces because
stopping distance will be longer and vehicle control
more limited.
While driving on a surface with reduced traction, try
your best to avoid sudden steering, acceleration, or
braking, including reducing vehicle speed by
shifting to a lower gear. Any sudden changes could
cause the tires to slide. You may not realize the
surface is slippery until your vehicle is skidding.
Learn to recognize warning clues — such as
enough water, ice, or packed snow on the road to
make a mirrored surface — and slow down when
you have any doubt.
Remember: Any Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
helps avoid only the braking skid.Driving at Night
Night driving is more dangerous than day driving.
One reason is that some drivers are likely to
be impaired — by alcohol or drugs, with night
vision problems, or by fatigue.
Here are some tips on night driving.
Drive defensively.
Do not drink and drive.
Adjust the inside rearview mirror to reduce the
glare from headlamps behind you.
Since you cannot see as well, slow down and
keep more space between you and other
vehicles.
Slow down, especially on higher speed roads.
Your vehicle’s headlamps can light up only so
much road ahead.
In remote areas, watch for animals.
If you are tired, pull off the road in a safe
place and rest.
