Parking Lots - Cadillac 1996 DeVille Owner's Manual

Trunk Lid Automatic Pull-Down Feature
I
A
CAUTION:
~ ~~~
Your car has an automatic pull-down feature that
helps close the trunk electronically. Your fingers
can be trapped under the trunk lid as it goes
down. Your fingers could be injured, and you
would need someone to help you free them. Keep
your fingers away from the trunk lid as you close
it and as it is going down.
Theft
Vehicle heft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your Cadillac has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make it
impossible to steal. However, there are ways you can help.
Key in the Ignition
If you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it's
an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
--
so
don't do it.
When you park your Cadillac and open the driver's
door, you'll hear a chime reminding you to remove your
key from the ignition and take it with you. Always do
this. Your steering wheel will be locked, and so will
your ignition and transaxle. And remember to lock
the doors.
Parking at Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep
your
valuables out of sight.
Put them in
a
storage area, or take them with you.
Parking Lots
If you park in a lot where someone will be watching
your vehicle, it's best to lock it up and take your keys

to
leave your ignition key? What i
