2006 Cadillac DTS Owner's Manual - Page 89

There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle. Because your vehicle has the theft-deterrent system, you must unlock the doors with the key or remote keyless entry transmitter to avoid setting off the alarm. From the outside, use either the key or the remote keyless entry transmitter. From the inside, use the power door lock switches or manual lock knobs. The manual lock knobs are located at the top of the door panel near the window. Push the manual lock knob down to lock the door. To unlock the door, pull up on the knob. Programmable Automatic Door Locks Your vehicle is programmed so that, when the doors are closed, the ignition is on and the shift lever is moved out of PARK (P), all the doors will lock. The doors will unlock every time you stop the vehicle and move the shift lever into PARK (P). If someone needs to get out while your vehicle is not in PARK (P), have the person use the manual lever or power door lock switch. When the door is closed again, it will not lock automatically. Use the manual lever or power door lock switch to lock the door. With the vehicle in PARK (P) and the ignition in ON, the door locks can be programmed through prompts displayed on the Driver Information Center (DIC). These prompts allow the driver to choose various lock and unlock settings. For programming information, see DIC Vehicle Customization on page 3-88. Central Door Unlocking System Your vehicle has a central door unlocking mode. When unlocking the driver's door, you can unlock the other doors at the same time by turning the key clockwise in the door lock cylinder twice. Power Door Locks The power door lock switches are located on the front doors. K (Unlock): Press the side of the switch with the unlock symbol to unlock the doors. Q (Lock): Press the side of the switch with the lock symbol to lock the doors. 2-11
