Locks and car alarm<br />
55<br />
All the windows should be shut when the<br />
alarm is armed. Otherwise, the movement<br />
sensor may interpret a passer-by as an<br />
attempted break-in.<br />
The alarm is armed 11 seconds after<br />
remote locking.<br />
During the delay period, the LED shines<br />
constantly. It will then start to flash once<br />
every 3 seconds. The LED is located on the<br />
fascia.<br />
If a door or the boot lid is open when the<br />
car is locked with the remote control,<br />
the LED will flash 3 times per second for<br />
11 seconds. Check that the doors, bonnet<br />
and boot lid are closed.<br />
If the signal persists, contact a workshop to<br />
have the problem checked and rectified. We<br />
recommend that you contact an authorised<br />
<strong>Cadillac</strong> workshop.<br />
Locking the boot lid<br />
If you unlock/open the boot lid from outside<br />
with button on the remote control, it will<br />
be unlocked when closed. Lock it by<br />
pressing button on the remote control.<br />
If the car has an alarm, it will be armed.<br />
To avoid any inconvenience, make sure that<br />
anyone using the car is familiar with how the<br />
car alarm and the locking system work.<br />
If the alarm has been triggered since the car<br />
was last locked, the DIC will display:<br />
Alarm tripped during<br />
last arming period.<br />
If the car alarm system malfunctions, the<br />
DIC will display:<br />
Theft protection failure.<br />
Contact service.<br />
Arming the car alarm<br />
The alarm is armed when all doors, the<br />
bonnet and the boot lid are closed and you<br />
lock the car with the remote control.<br />
What trips the alarm?<br />
The alarm will be tripped if:<br />
• A door, the bonnet or the boot lid is<br />
opened.<br />
• The movement sensor registers movement<br />
in the cabin.<br />
• The tilt sensor registers that the angle of<br />
the car has changed (if car alarm has tilt<br />
sensor).<br />
• Someone tampers with the alarm siren.<br />
• Somebody tries to hotwire the car.<br />
• The car battery is disconnected.<br />
Signals when the alarm is tripped<br />
If the alarm is triggered, the following alarm<br />
signals will be set off:<br />
• All direction indicators flash for 5 minutes.<br />
• The horn/siren sounds for 30-second<br />
intervals with 10-second breaks<br />
(max. 10 cycles).<br />
The signals can vary between markets<br />
and due to legal and insurance requirements.
