2002 Cadillac Eldorado Owner's Manual - Page 62

NOTICE: Your vehicle has a number of new features that can help prevent theft. You can have a lot of trouble getting into your vehicle if you ever lock your keys inside and you may have to damage your vehicle to get in. Be sure you have extra keys. There are 15 alternative ignition PASS-KeyR II blanks to help discourage theft. Keep the bar code tag and the door key plugs in a safe place. If you lose your keys, you will be able to have new ones made using the plug or bar code tag. In an emergency, contact Cadillac Roadside Assistance. See "Roadside Assistance" in the Index. If your vehicle is equipped with the OnStarR system with an active subscription and you lock your keys inside the vehicle, OnStar may be able to send a command to unlock your vehicle. See "OnStar" in the Index for more information. Ignition Key Door/Locks Key The square key is for the ignition only. It has a resistor pellet which is part of the vehicle's PASS-KeyR II system. The oval key is for the doors and all other locks. When a new vehicle is delivered, the dealer removes the plug from the door key. The plug has a code on it that tells the dealer or a qualified locksmith how to make extra keys. The ignition key has a bar code tag attached to it rather than a knock out plug. Your dealer or qualified locksmith can make extra ignition keys by reading the bar code tag. 2-5
