Just close your doors, turn on the ignition and make sure the interior
courtesy lights are switched off. Every time you move your shift lever out
of “P” (Park) all of the doors will lock. And, every time you stop and
move your shift lever into
“P” (Park), your doors will unlock. If someone
needs to get out while you’re not in
“P” (Park), have that person use the
manual or power lock. When the door is closed again, it will not lock
automatically. Just use the manual or power lock to lock the door again.
Leaving Your Khicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, set the locks from inside, get out and close
the door.
Central Door Unlocking System (Option)
Your vehicle may be equipped with this feature. When unlocking either
door, you can unlock the other doors by holding the key in the turned
position for a
few seconds.
Illuminated Entry System
Your illuminated entry system turns on all the courtesy lights when either
door is opened. When the door is closed, the courtesy lights will stay on
for approximately
20 seconds or until the ignition is turned on.
Y
REMOTE KEKESS ENTRY SYSTEM

unlock your trunk from up to
15 feet (4.5 m) using the key chain
transmitter supplied with your vehicle.
Your Remote Keyless Entry System is intended to be used as a
supplementary vehicle entry device. It is
not intended to replace, but
rather should
be used in conjunction with a door lock key. It operates on
a radio frequency subject to Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Rules.

ACC: Accessory lets you use things like the radio and the windshield
wipers when the engine
is off. To get into “ACC”, push in the key and turn
it toward
you. Your steering wheel will remain locked, just as it was
before you inserted the key.
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 WLI
must have your car in motion while the engine is off (for cu:rnlplc*. if >.our
car is being pushed).
NOTICE:
If your key seems stuck in “Imk” rrnd you cdl turn it, be sure
it is all the way in. If it is, then turn the steering wheel left and
fight while you turn the key hard, But turn the key only with
your hand. Using a toooil to force it could break the key or the
ignition switch, If none .of this works, then your vehicle needs
service.
STARTING YOUR ENGINE
Engines start differently. The 8th digit of your Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN) shows
the code letter or number for your engine. You will
find the VIN at the top left
of your instrument panel. (See “Vehicle
Identification Number” in the Index.) Follow the proper steps
to start the
engine.
Move your shift lever to
“P” (Park) or “N” (Neutral). Your engine won’t
start in any other position
-- that’s a safety feature. To restart when you’re
already moving, use
“N” (Neutral) only.

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 at your earliest convenience. You can
reduce the charging overload
by using the accessories. Turn on the lights,
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. When the engine is running, the normal range
is 11.5 to 15.5
volts.
c
BATTERY VOLTS LOW
This message will appear when the electrical system is charging less than
10 volts, or if the battery has been drained. If this message appears
immediately after starting it is possible that the generator can still
recharge the battery. The battery should recharge after driving a few
miles and the message should go out. If this message appears while
driving or after starting your vehicle and stays on, have it checked
immediately to determine the cause
of this problem. To help the
generator recharge the battery quickly,
you can reduce the load on the
electrical system by turning
off your accessories. You can monitor battery
voltage on the Driver Information Center by toggling the
“INFORMATION’’ button. The normal range is
11.5 to 15.5 volts.
CHANGE TRANS FLUID (Northstar Only)
This message will appear when it is time to replace the transaxle fluid.
See your maintenance booklet
for the proper fluid and change intervals.
CHECK BRAKE FLUID
This message is displayed to inform the driver that the brake reservoir
fluid level is low. Check the brake reservoir level and add as needed.
Have the brake system serviced by a Cadillac technician as soon as
possible.
If the brake warning light is on, follow the directions in that
section.
CHECK COOLANT LEVEL (Northstar Only)
This message will appear when there is a low level of engine coolant.
Have the cooling system serviced by a Cadillac technician as soon as
possible.

The system will go
off after a four minute heating cycle. If you shift out of
“P7’ (Park), the system will only cycle for two minutes. If you want it to
cycle again, push 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 try just pushing the switch again.
Use
the defroster to clear the windshield. 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 openers and radar detectors.
(In certain states radar detectors are legal.)
SOUND SYSTEMS
Your Delcoa sound system has been designed to operate easily and give
years
of listening pleasure. But you will get the most enjoyment out of it if
you acquaint yourself with it first. Find out what your Delcos 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. But FM signals will reach only
about
10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). And, tall buildings or hills can
interfere with
FM signals, causing the sound to come and go.
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.
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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 station on the AM band. You don't have to do anything in
your radio because AMAX@ is automatic.

A CAUTION:
Hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable until it
is too late. Your hearing can adapt to higher volumes of sound.
Sound that seems normal can be loud and harmful
to your
hearing.
Take precautions by agjusting the volume control on
your radio to
a safe sound level before your hearing adapts to it.
To help avoid hearing loss or damage:

0 Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
Increase volume slowly until you hear comfortably and
clearly.
