Cadillac 2009 DTS Automobile User Manual


 
Content Theft-Deterrent
The security light is
located on the instrument
panel cluster.
To arm the system:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door using the power door lock switch with
the door open or the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter. The security light will flash.
3. Close all the doors. The security light will come on
and stay on for approximately 30 seconds.
If a door or the trunk is opened without a key or a
RKE transmitter the horn will sound and the lamps will
flash for about 30 seconds.
The theft-deterrent system will not arm if you lock the
doors with a key or use the manual door lock. It arms
only if you use a power door lock with the door open or
the RKE transmitter.
To avoid arming the alarm by accident:
Lock the vehicle with the door key or the manual
door lock.
Always unlock a door with a key or use the RKE
transmitter system. Pressing the unlock button
on the RKE transmitter, or unlocking a door with the
key disarms the content theft-deterrent system.
Unlocking a door any other way will activate
the alarm when a door or the trunk is opened.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock the driver’s
door with your key. You can also turn off the alarm
by using the unlock button on the RKE transmitter
system, or by starting the car with a valid key.
Changes or modifications made to this system by
other than an authorized service facility could void
authorization to use the theft system.
