2000 Cadillac Escalade Owner's Manual - Page 76

Operation The driver's door will unlock automatically when UNLOCK is pressed. If UNLOCK is pressed again within five seconds, the passenger's doors will also unlock. All doors will lock when LOCK is pressed. The tailgate or panel doors will unlock when the REAR 2X button is pressed twice within five seconds, as long as the ignition is turned to OFF or the transmission is in PARK (P). The system will turn on the interior lamps for about 40 seconds, when you unlock the doors, tailgate or panel doors. The interior lamps will go off when you lock the doors using the keyless entry transmitter or a power door lock switch. The interior lamps will also go off if the ignition is turned to RUN. Operating the keyless entry transmitter may interact with the theft-deterrent system. See "Theft-Deterrent System" in the Index. Alarm/Panic Mode The theft-deterrent system provides a fourth button on your transmitter. This button is the alarm/panic button. If you are involved in a panic situation, press this button and your vehicle's horn will sound and the headlamps will flash. This will draw needed attention to you and your vehicle. To turn this feature off, either push the panic button again or turn the ignition to RUN. The alarm will stop by itself after two minutes. This feature will not work if your ignition is on or if the transmitter is 30 feet (9 m) or more away from your vehicle. Transmitter Verification This feature provides feedback to the holder of the keyless entry transmitter that a command has been received by the keyless entry receiver. The headlamps and parking lamps will flash on every lock and unlock command and the horn will sound only if the LOCK button is pressed twice within five seconds. This allows for silent operation of locking and unlocking, unless a confirming horn chirp is desired. Other options may be selected for this feature (see "Feature Customization" in the Index). 2-8
