This lock gives you five
different positions.
Before you
put the key in, your ignition will be in the LOCK position.
This position locks your ignition, steering wheel and transaxle. It’s a theft
deterrent feature.
The other positions let you perform these functions:
ACCESSORY: This position lets you use things like the radio and the
windshield wipers when
the engine is off. To get into ACCESSORY, push
in the key and turn it toward you. Your steering wheel will remain locked,
just
as it was before you inserted the key.
LOCK: Before you put the key in, your ignition will be in the LOCK
position. This is the only position in which you can remove the key. This
position locks your ignition, steering wheel and transmission. It’s a theft
deterrent feature.
OFF
This position lets you turn off the engine but still turn the steering
wheel. It doesn’t lock the steering wheel like LOCK. Use OFF if you must
have your car in motion while the engine
is off (for example, if your car is
being pushed).
RUN: This is the position for driving.
START: This starts your engine.

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.

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 Heated Windshield (Option)
Front De-Ice
Here’s how to use your heated windshield in cold weather to remove ice
or frost quickly:
1. If any snow is piled up on the windshield, brush it away.
2. Start your Cadillac and leave it in PARK (P).
3. Press the DE-ICE
switch. A light will
come on to tell
you it is working.
DE-ICE
4. Try not to use
other electrical
equipment while
the system
is
working.
The system will
go off after a four-minute heating cycle. If you shift out of
PARK (P), the system will only cycle for two minutes. If you want it to
cycle again, press the switch. It will go on for two-minute cycles after that.
If it has cleared your windshield before the
cycle is over, you can turn it
off by just pressing the switch again.
Use the defroster or defog features of the Electronic Climate Control to
clear fog from the windshield as previously described. In warm weather
the heated windshield system helps keep the vehicle’s interior cool by
blocking much
of the sun’s heat producing radiation. The system’s solar
control properties also
help reduce interior fading.
There
is a metal film in the windshield which will block out some radio or
microwave signals. Therefore, the heated windshield
will reduce the
useful range
of devices such as garage door opcners and radar detectors.
(In certain states radar detectors are legal.)

Your Delco@ audio system has been designed to operate easily and give
years
of listening pleasure. You will get the most enjoyment out of your
audio
s stem if you acquaint yourself with it first. Find out what your
Delco system can
do and how to operate all its controls, to be sure
you’re getting the most out
of the advanced engineering that went into it.

FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound, however, FM signals will only
reach about
10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). Tall buildings or hills may
interfere with FM signals causing sounds to fade and may also cause
popping, crackling or momentary hissing noises.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer range, however, can cause stations
to interfere with
each other. (FCC regulations require some AM radio stations to reduce
signal strength at night to minimize interference.)
AM can pick up noise
from things
like storms and power lines. Try reducing the treble to reduce
this noise
if you ever get it.
This means your radio can produce quality
AM sound comparable to FM
stereo.
AMAX@ reduces noise without reducing the high frequencies you
need for the best sound. In addition to improved sound quality,
AMAX@includes more stations
on the AM band. You don’t have to do
anything to your radio because AMAX’ is automatic.
AM Stereo
This means the Delco’ system can receive C-QUAM@ stereo broadcasts.
Many AM stations around the country use C-QUAM@
to produce stereo,
though some do not. (C-QUAM@ is a registered trademark of Motorola,
Inc.) If your Delco@ system can get C-QUAM@, your
ST stereo light will
come on when you’re receiving it.
