Memory Seats
Overview
If equipped, the memory seat
feature allows drivers to save
their unique driving positions and a shared exit position. See
“Saving Seating Positions”
later in this section. The saved
positions can be recalled
manually by all drivers, see
“Manually Recalling Seating
Positions”
later in this section,
and drivers with remote key
1 and 2 can also recall them
automatically. See “Auto Seat
Entry Memory Recall” or“Auto
Seat Exit Memory Recall” later
in this section. To enable
automatic recalls, turn on Seat
Entry Memory and/or Seat
Exit Memory. See “Enabling
Automatic Recalls” later in this
section. The memory recalls
may be canceled at any time
during the recall. See “Cancel
Memory Seating Recalls” later
in this section.
Identifying Driver Number
The vehicle identifies the
current driver by their remote
key number 1–8. The current
remote key number may be
identified by Driver
Information Center (DIC) welcome message,
“You are
driver x for memory recalls.”
This message is displayed the
first few times the vehicle is
turned on when a different
remote key is used. For Seat
Entry Memory to work
properly, save positions to the
1 or 2 memory button
matching the driver number of
this welcome message. To aid
in identifying remote key IDs, it
is recommended to only carry
one remote key when entering
the vehicle. Perform the
following if the welcome
message is not displayed:
1. Move all keys and remote keys away from the
vehicle.
2. Start the vehicle with another remote key. A DIC
welcome message should
display indicating the
driver number of the other
remote key. Turn the
vehicle off and remove the
other key or remote key
from the vehicle.

If temperature change or
pain to the skin cannot be
felt, the seat heater may
cause burns. To reduce the
risk of burns, use care when
using the seat heater,
especially for long periods of
time. Do not place anything
on the seat that insulates
against heat, such as a
blanket, cushion, cover,
or similar item. This may
cause the seat heater to
overheat. An overheated
seat heater may cause a
burn or may damage
the seat.

a second row door is opened
while the vehicle is on or up to
10 minutes before the vehicle

there may be something in the
rear seat. The feature is active only once
each time the vehicle is turned
on and off, and will require
reactivation by opening and
closing the second row doors.
There may be an alert even
when there is nothing in the

child entered the vehicle
through the rear door and left
the vehicle without the vehicle
being shut off.
The feature can be turned on
or off. Select Settings > Rear
Seat Reminder > ON or OFF.

Seat Belts
This section describes how to
use seat belts properly, and
some things not to do.
{Warning
Do not let anyone ride
where a seat belt cannot be
worn properly. In a crash,
if you or your passenger(s)
are not wearing seat belts,
injuries can be much worse
than if you are wearing seat
belts. You can be seriously
injured or killed by hitting
things inside the vehicle
harder or by being ejected
from the vehicle. In addition,
anyone who is not buckled
up can strike other
passengers in the vehicle.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
It is extremely dangerous to
ride in a cargo area, inside or
outside of a vehicle. In a
collision, passengers riding
in these areas are more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed. Do not allow
passengers to ride in any
area of the vehicle that is
not equipped with seats and
seat belts.
Always wear a seat belt, and
check that all passenger(s)
are restrained properly too.
This vehicle has indicators as
a reminder to buckle the seat
belts. See Seat Belt
Reminders 0123.
Why Seat Belts Work
When riding in a vehicle, you
travel as fast as the vehicle
does. If the vehicle stops
suddenly, you keep going until
something stops you. It could
be the windshield, the
instrument panel, or the seat
belts!
When you wear a seat belt,
you and the vehicle slow down
together. There is more time
to stop because you stop over
a longer distance and, when
worn properly, your strongest
bones take the forces from

Cadillac XT4 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
16412876) - 2023 - CRC - 3/25/22
58 Seats and Restraints
the seat belts. That is why
wearing seat belts makes such
good sense.
Questions and Answers
About Seat Belts
Q: Will I be trapped in thevehicle after a crash if I am
wearing a seat belt?
A: You could be —whether you
are wearing a seat belt or
not. Your chance of being
conscious during and after a
crash, so you can unbuckle
and get out, is much greater
if you are belted.
Q: If my vehicle has airbags, why should I have to wear
seat belts?
A: Airbags are supplemental
systems only. They work
with seat belts —not
instead of them. Whether or
not an airbag is provided, all
occupants still have to
buckle up to get the most
protection. Also, in nearly all states and
in all Canadian provinces,
the law requires wearing
seat belts.
How to Wear Seat
Belts Properly
Follow these rules for
everyone's protection.
There are additional things to
know about seat belts and
children, including smaller
children and infants. If a child
will be riding in the vehicle, see
Older Children
079 or
Infants and Young Children
0 80. Review and follow the
rules for children in addition to
the following rules.
It is very important for all
occupants to buckle up.
Statistics show that unbelted
people are hurt more often in
crashes than those who are
wearing seat belts.
There are important things to
know about wearing a seat
belt properly.
.Sit up straight and always
keep your feet on the floor in
front of you (if possible).
.Wear the lap part of the belt
low and snug on the hips,
just touching the thighs. In a
crash, this applies force to
the strong pelvic bones and
you would be less likely to
slide under the lap belt.
If you slid under it, the belt
would apply force on your
abdomen. This could cause
serious or even fatal injuries.
.Wear the shoulder belt over
the shoulder and across the
chest. These parts of the

body are best able to take
belt restraining forces. The
shoulder belt locks if there is
a sudden stop or crash.
{Warning
You can be seriously injured,
or even killed, by not
wearing your seat belt
properly.
Never allow the lap or
shoulder belt to become loose
or twisted.Never wear the shoulder belt
under both arms or behind
your back.
