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.

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 the remaining
transmitter with you when you
go to your dealer. When the dealer
matches the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, the remaining
transmitter must also be matched. Once the new transmitter
is coded, the
lost transmitter
will not unlock your vehicle.
You can match a transmitter to as many different vehicles as you own,
provided they are equipped with exactlv the same model svstem. (General
Motors offers several different models
of these systems on their vehicles.)
Each vehicle can have only
2 transmitters matched to it.
See your dealer to match transmitters to another vehicle.
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.

Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities. Although your
Cadillac has
a number of theft deterrent features, we know that nothing
we put on it can make it impossible
to steal. However, there are ways you
can help.
Key in the imition: If you walk away from your vehicle with the keys
inside, it’s an easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
-- so don’t
do
it.
When you park your Cadillac and open the driver’s door, you’ll hear a
chime reminding you to remove your key from the ignition and take
it
with you. Always do this. Your steering wheel will be locked, and so will
your ignition and transaxle. And remember to lock
the doors.
Parkina
at Night: Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember
to keep your valuables out of sight. Put them in a
storage area, or take them
with you.
Parkina Lots: If you park in a lot where someone will be watching your
vehicle, it’s best to lock it up and take your keys. But what if you have to
leave your ignition key? What
if you have to leave something valuable in
your vehicle?
Put your valuables in a storage area, like your trunk or glove box.
Lock the glove box.
0 Lock all the doors except the driver’s.

If your Cadillac has this
option,
it has a Theft
Deterrent Alarm
System.
With this
system, the
“SECURITY” light
will flash as you open
the door (if your
ignition is
off).
This light reminds you to arm the theft deterrent system. Here’s how to
do it:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch or Keyless Entry
System. The
“SECURITY” light should come on and stay on.
3. Close all doors. The “SECURITY’’ light should go off.
If a door or the trunk is opened without the key or Keyless Entry System,
the alarm will go
off. It will also go off if the trunk lock is damaged. Your
vehicle’s lights
will flash and the horn will sound for 3 minutes, then will
go off to save battery power.
Remember, the theft deterrent system won’t arm
if you lock the doors
with a key
or manual door lock. It arms only if you use a power door lock
switch or Keyless Entry System.
Here’s how to avoid setting
off the alarm by accident:

If your vehicle is equipped with Traction Control, 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 (Northstar Only)
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 S and 20 seconds).
This message is a reminder, after driving about a mile that you have your
turn signal on.
TRUNK OPEN
This message indicates that your trunk is open when the Ignition is ON.
VERY LOW REFRIGERANT
This message means that the Air Conditioning system detects a
refrigerant level that is low enough to cause damage to the
NC
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 vour 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\

‘WINTER DmNG

Here are some tips for winter driving:
0 Have your Cadillac in good shape for winter. Be sure your engine
coolant
mix is correct.
Snow tires can help in loose snow, but they may give you less traction
on ice than regular tires.
If you do not expect to be driving in deep
snow,
but may have to travel over ice, you may not want to switch to
snow tires at all.
You may want to put winter emergency supplies in your trunk.
