HomeLink Universal Transmitter (Option)
This transmitter allows
you to consolidate
the functions of up
to three individual
hand-held transmitters.
It will operate garage
doors and gates, or
with
the accessory package,
other devices controlled
by radio frequency such
as home/office lighting
systems and security
systems.
The transmitter
will learn and transmit the frequencies of most current
transmitters and
is powered by your vehicle’s battery and charging system.
This device complies with Part
15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Programming the Transmitter
Do not use the HomeLink” Transmitter with any garage door opener
that does not have
the “stop and reverse” safety feature. This includes any
garage door opener model manufactured before April 1,1982.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the garage door you are
programming!
Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while programming your
transmitter. Follow these steps to program
up to three channels:
1. If you have previously programmed a HomeLink TM channel, proceed to
Step
2. Otherwise, hold down the two outside buttons on the HomeLink TM
Transmitter until the red light begins to flash rapidly (approximately
20 seconds). Then release the buttons. This procedure initializes the
memory and erases any previous settings for all three channels.
2. Hold the end of your hand-held transmitter against the bottom surface
of the HomeLink” Transmitter
so that you can still see the red light.

both hands, press the hand-held transmitter button and the desired
button on the HomeLink
TM Transmitter. Continue to hold both
buttons through Step
4.
4.
Hold down both buttons until you see the red light on the HomeLink
Transmitter flash rapidly. The rapid flashing, which could take
up to
90 seconds, indicates that the HomeLink TM Transmitter has been
programmed.
Release both buttons once the light starts to flash rapidly.
If you have trouble programming the HomeLink
TM Transmitter, make
sure that
you have followed the directions exactly as described and that the
batteries in the hand-held transmitter are not dead. If you still cannot
program
it, rotate your hand-held transmitter end over end and try again.
The HomeLink TM Transmitter may not work with older garage door
openers that do not meet current Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If
you cannot program the transmitter after repeated attempts, consult your
Cadillac dealer or call
1-800-355-35 15.
Be sure to keep your original hand-held transmitter in case you need to
erase and reprogram the HomeLink TM transmitter.
Note to Canadian Owners: During programming, your hand-held transmitter
may stop transmitting after one or two seconds. If you are programming
from one
of these transmitters, the HorneLink TM indicator light may prompt
you to re-activate your hand-held transmitter
with a series of double blinks.
After you reactivate your hand-held transmitter, the HolneLink
TM light
should flash rapidly. If
it flashes slowly, continue to periodically rc-activate
your hand-held transmitter
until the light flashes rapidly.
Operating the Transmitter
Press the appropriate button on the HomcLink TM Universal Transmitter.
The red light comes on while the signal is being transmitted.
Note that the effective transmission range
of the HomeLink" Transmitter
may differ from your hand-held transmitter and from one channel to another.
Erasing Channels
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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Driver Information Center Messages
These messages will appear if there is a problem sensed in one of your
vehicle’s systems. Vehicles
that are first sold in Canada will have a number
after each message.
This number hclps to identify the message which is
only displayed in English.
APPLY BRAKE TO SHIFT - 46
This message will appear if your vehicle is in PARK (P) for about
15 seconds and
the brake is not pressed in. If you do not want this
message
to appear, you can cancel it by holding the OFF and the blue
(cooler) button on
the Electronic Climate Control panel for about five
seconds. Hold the same
two buttons again to have this message displayed
again.
A/C OVERHEATED - A/C COMPRESSOR OFF - 15
If the refrigerant system ever rcaches an over-pressure condition, this
message
will appear to tell you that the air conditioning compressor has
been turned off. Air conditioned air
will not be delivered to cool your
vehicle.
If the pressure returns to a normal operating range, you must
select AUTO,
DEFOG or DEFROST to start the compressor. If this
message continues to appear, have the system repaired
as soon as possible
to avoid compressor damage.
BATTERY NO CHARGE - 07
This message will appear if your battery is not being charged. Have your
electrical system checked
by your Cadillac dealership at your earliest
convenience.
BATTERY VOLTS HIGH - OS
This message shows that the electrical charging system is overcharging
(more than
16 volts). To avoid being stranded have the electrical system
checked by your Cadillac dealership.
You can reduce the charging
overload by using the accessories.
Turn on the lamps and radio, set the
climate control
on AUTO and the fan speed on HI, and turn the rear
window defogger on.
You can monitor battery voltage on the Driver
information Center by toggling the INFORMATION button. The normal
range is 1 1.5
to 15.5 volts when the engine is running.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine TRACTION DISABLED - 88
m This message will be displayed if a problem is noted in the Traction
Control System. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible.
TRANS FLUID RESET - 48
With the engine not running and
the ignition ON, press and hold the OFF
and REAR DEFOG buttons until the TRANS FLUID RESET message
appears
in the Information Center (between five and 20 seconds).
TURN SIGNAL ON - 20
This message is a reminder, after driving about a mile, that you have your
turn signal on.
TRUNK OPEN - 24
This message indicates that your trunk is open when the ignition is ON.
VERY LOW REFRIGERANT A/C COMPRESSOR OFF - 12
This message means that the Air Conditioning system detects a
refrigerant level that is
low enough to cause damage to the A/C
compressor. To avoid damage the A/C compressor automatically turns off
and the Electronic Climate Control will automatically switch from AUTO
to ECON and remain there. Have your A/C system serviced
if this
message appears.
Speed Sensitive Steering (SSS)
This system varies the amount of steering effort proportionate to your
vehicle speed. Steering
is easier at a lower speed for increased
maneuverability and parking ease. As your vehicle speed increases, the
steering effort is also increased proportionately. At highway speeds the
amount
of steering effort is greatly increased to provide a manual-like
steering feel for maximum control and enhanced vehicle stability.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The Oil Life Indicator may say to change the oil sooner than your
Maintenance Schedule. This can happen
if driving conditions, such as
short trips in cold weather, cause shorter oil life. Always keep a written
record
of the mileage and date when you last changed your oil. For more
information on when to change your oil, see the Cadillac Maintenance
Schedule Booklet.
If you see CHANGE
OIL SOON, it means that you have less than 10% of
your oil life left and you should consider changing your engine oil.
If you see CHANGE ENGINE OIL, it means the oil life is gone and
you should change the oil right away (certainly within 200 more miles
E320 km]).
The system should indicate to change the oil between 3,000 miles
(5 000 km) and 7,500 miles (12 500 km), but it may even indicate to
change it before 3,000 miles under very severe conditions. It all depends
on your driving patterns. If it’s been
7,500 miles (12 500 km), it indicates
to change the oil.
There are two things the system doesn’t do:
It can’t sense heavy dust in the places where you drive. If you drive in a
dusty area, you should change your oil
every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or
three months (whichever comes first) unless the display says
to change
it even sooner than that.
It doesn’t check how much oil you have, so you’ll still have to check for
that. To see how, see “Engine Oil” in the Index.
When You’ve Changed the Oil
When new oil is put in, you’ll need to reset your system. To do this, display
the OIL LIFE INDEX by pressing the INFORMATION button. Then
press and hold the
RESET buttons until the display shows 100 OIL LIFE

Your Cassette Tape Player
Your cassette tape player works best with tapes that are 30 to 45 minutes
long on each side. Tapes longer than that are so thin that they may not
work well
in this player.
If you look at the tape, or on its label or box, it should say whether its bias,
or “equalization,” is 70 microseconds (70 p) or 120 microseconds (120 p).
Chrome and metal tapes are 70 p sec and standard iron tapes are
120 p sec. Your tape player will adjust automatically for either type
of cassette tape.
