Remember, the theft-deterrent system won’t activate if
you lock the doors with a key or use the manual door
lock. It activates only if you use a power door lock
switch or the Keyless Entry system.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident:
0 The vehicle should be locked with the door key after-
the doors are closed if you don’t want to activate the
theft-deterrent system.
Always unlock a door with a key or use the Keyless
Entry system. (Pressing the unlock button on the
Keyless Entry transmitter disables the theft-deterrent
system.) Unlocking a door any other way will
activate the alarm. Cycling the ignition without
disarming the theft-deterrent system will also
activate the alarm.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock any door
with your key.
You can also turn off the alarm by using
the Keyless Entry system. The alarm won’t stop if you
try to unlock a door any other way.
Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window, then
get out of the vehicle, keeping the door open.
2. From outside of the vehicle, with the door open, lock
the vehicle using the power door lock or the Keyless
Entry
system and close the door. Wait 30 seconds.
3. Reach in and unlock the door using the manual lock
and open the door. The horn will sound and the
headlamps will flash.
If the alarm does not sound when it should, check to
see if the horn works. The
horn fuse may be blown. To
replace the fuse, see “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in
the Index. If the fuse does not need to be replaced, you
may need to have your Cadillac serviced.
To reduce the possibility of theft, always activate
the optional theft-deterrent system when leaving
your vehicle.

knob control when a door
is opened or if you press the
Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) button. Note that the

to turn on. The courtesy lamps will turn
off approximately 20 seconds after the last door is closed.
