With this feature, you
can lock and unlock the
doors, un%ock the trunk,
open the fuel door and turn
on your vehicle’s interior
lamps from about
10 feet
(3 m) away using the RlKE
transmitter supplied with
your vehicle.
Your
RKE system operates on a radio frequency subject
to Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules
and with Industry and Science 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 hml interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that
may cause undesired operation
of the device.
Changes or modifications
to this system by other than
an authorized service facility could void authorization
to use this equipment.
This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry and
Science Canada. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device rnay not cause
interference, and
(2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation
of the device.
The range of this system is about 10 feet (3 rn). At times
you may notice a decrease in range. This is
norrnal for
any remote keyless entry system. If the transmitter does
not work 81- if you have to stand closer to your vehicle
for
the transmitter to work, try this:
Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions that follow.
Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. YOU may need to stand closer during rainy
or
snowy weather.
Check the location. Other vehicles
81- objects rnay

or right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again.
If you’re still having trouble, see your Cadillac
dealer

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To begin programming, check the back of the RKE
transmitter to verify that the correct driver is selected.
Press the
INFORMATION (INFO) and RESET (INFO
RESET) buttons at the same time for about two seconds.
As mentioned, memory recall is the fourth feature to
appear. To “skip” past the first three personalization
features, press the
INFORMATION (INFO) button.
When
REMOTE RECALL MEMORY appears, the
driver is able to recall memory settings when
the unlock
button on the
RKE transmitter is pressed with the
ignition in
LOCK. Press the TRIP SET (TRIP RESET)
button to select or press the RESET (INFO RESET)
button to answer no and to continue on to the next
prompt.
(FEATURE ON displays when a yes response
is made and FEATURE OFF shows when a no response
is made.)
If a no response was made, the KEY IN RECALL
MEMORY prompt will show next. This choice recalls
memory settings when the key is placed
in your
vehicle’s ignition.
A yes or no response is required.
For a list
of the other personalization features available,
see “Memory and Personalization Features” later
in
this section. 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. Once your dealer has coded the new
transmitter, the lost transmitter will
not unlock your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have only two transmitters
matched to it.
Under
normal use, the battery in your RKE transmitter
should Bast about four years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won’t
work at the normal range in any location.
If you have to
get close
to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it’s probably time to change the battery.
When replacing the battery, use care not to touch
any of the circuitry. Static from your body
transferred to these surfaces may damage

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The braking system on a modem vehicle is complex.
Its many parts have to be of top quality and work well
together if the vehicle
is to have really good braking.
Your vehicle was designed and tested with top-quality
GM brake parts. When you replace parts of your braking
system
-- for example, when your brake linings wear
down and you have
to have new ones put in -- be sure
you get new approved
CM replacement parts. If you
don’t, your brakes may no longer work properly. For
example, if someone puts
in brake linings that are wrong
for your vehicle, the balance between your front and
rear brakes can change
-- for the worse. The braking
performance you’ve come
to expect can change in many
other ways
if someone puts in the wrong replacement
brake parts.
e
Every new Cadillac has a Delco Freedom@ battery. YOU
never have to add water to one of these. When it’s time
for a new battery, we recommend a Delco Freedom
battery.
Get one that has the replacement number shown
on the original battery’s label.
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days
or more, take
off the black, negative (-) cable from
the battery. This will help keep your battery from
running down.
Batteries have acid that can burn YOU and gas
aren’t careful. See “Jump Starting’’ in the Index
for tips
on working around a battery without
that
can explode. You can be badly hurt if you
Contact your
dealer to learn how to prepare your vehicle
for longer storage periods.
Also, for your audio system, see “Theft-Deterrent
Feature” in the Index.
