Press the unlock symbol to unlock the driver’s door.
Press
it again within five seconds to unlock the other
doors. Pressing this symbol will also disarm the optional
Theft-Deterrent System and
turn on the interior lamps.
Press the lock symbol to lock your doors. This also arms
the optional Theft-Deterrent System.
Press the opened trunk symbol to open the trunk.
Press the lamp symbol to turn on the interior lamps only.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each key chain 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 remaining
transmitters with you when you go to your dealer. When
the dealer matches the replacement transmitter to your
vehicle, any remaining transmitters must also be
matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the lost
transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle
can have only two transmitters matched to it.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the batteries in your key chain
transmitter should last about two years.
You can tell the batteries are 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 batteries.
1. Use the round end of the door key or a quarter to
rotate the cover slightly counterclockwise.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Starting Your 5.7 Liter LTl Engine
1. Without pushing the accelerator pedal, turn the ignition key to START. When the engine starts, let
go of
the key. The idle speed will go down as your
engine gets warm.
NOTICE:
Holding your key in START for longer than
15 seconds at a time will cause your battery to be
drained much sooner. And the excessive heat can
damage your starter motor.
2. If it doesn’t start within 10 seconds, push the
accelerator pedal all the way to the floor, while you
hold the ignition key in START. When the engine
starts, let
go of the key and let up on the accelerator
pedal. Wait about
15 seconds between each try to
help avoid draining your battery.
When starting your engine in very cold weather (below
0°F or -18”C), do this:
1. With your foot off the accelerator pedal, turn the
ignition key to START and hold
it there. When the
engine starts, let
go of the key. Use the accelerator pedal
to maintain engine speed, if you have to, until
your engine has run for a while.
2. If your engine still won’t start (or starts but then
stops), it could be flooded with too much gasoline.
Try pushing your accelerator pedal all the way to the
floor and holding it there as you hold the key in
START for about three seconds.
If the vehicle starts
briefly but then stops again, do the same thing, but
this time keep the pedal down for five or six seconds.
This clears the extra gasoline from the engine.
NOTICE:
Your engine is designed to work with the
electronics in your vehicle.
If you add electrical
parts or accessories, you could change the way
the engine operates. Before adding electrical
equipment, check with your dealer.
If you don’t,
your engine might not perform properly.
If you ever have to have your vehicle towed, see
the part of this manual that tells how to do it
without damaging your vehicle. See “Towing
Your Vehicle” in the Index.

Electrochromic Mirror
Your Cadillac has an automatic inside rearview mirror.
During the day
it works like a regular mirror, but at
night it adjusts for the glare of headlamps behind you.
The
mirror delays before switching from day to night
mode.
This change may take a few seconds. This delay
prevents rapid changing of the mirror as you drive under
lights and through traffic.
On/Off Switch
Press the switch located at the base of the mirror to turn
on the auto-dimming feature. Press it
again to turn off.
Reverse Gear Day Mode
When the shift lever is placed in REVERSE (R), the
mirror changes to the daytime mode for a bright image
in the mirror as you back up.
Front Reading Lamps
There are two reading lamps located on the rearview
mirror.
Press the switch next to the lamp that you want
to turn on
or off.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine After changing the engine oil, the system must be reset.

OUT TEMP: Press this to display the outside
temperature. Press it again to return to the regular
system display.
TEMP: This sets the interior temperature you want.
Press the lower portion to lower the inside temperature
setting. Press the upper portion to raise the temperature
setting. Once you set the temperature, the system will
automatically maintain the set temperature.
You can change the temperature from
65 OF (1 8 O C) to
85 OF (29"C), one degree at a time. You may also choose
60 OF ( 16 O C) for maximum cooling or 90 OF (33 O C) for
maximum heating. The fan will stay on high speed
unless you select a different speed. In maximum heating,
most of the air will flow out the heater outlets. In
maximum cooling, the system will recirculate the air
inside your vehicle instead of pulling air from outside.
OFF: This turns off anything set in the ECC, but air will
flow through your Cadillac.
ECON: Use this in cold or cool weather to save fuel. It
won't cool or remove humidity from the air. However,
the system will try to keep the air at the chosen
temperature. If it's
so warm outside that you need to
cool the air, use AUTO.
AUTO: With this setting, the system automatically
controls the temperature, air distribution and fan
speeds. In cold conditions, the fan will not come on
until the system senses that the engine has started to warrn up. This prevents cold air from blowing on you
and your passengers.
FAN: The fan speed is controlled automatically if
you have the ECC set
on AUTO. However, if you want
the fan to run at a lower speed, press the lower portion
of the fan switch.
If you want the blower to run at a fixed higher speed,
press the upper portion
of the fan switch until you see
HI on the display.
If you want the fan to run at a fixed low speed, press the
switch until
LO is shown on the display.
If you want the fan speed to be automatic but you like
the fan to be higher or lower than the AUTO settings,
just press the switch until either HI AUTO or AUTO
LO
is displayed.
If the Fahrenheit
(F") or Celsius (C")
flash, or flashes when you turn
on the symbol begins to
ignition, it
indicates an electrical problem with your air
conditioning system. The flashing will continue for
about two minutes. It means you should have your
system serviced.
