Content Theft-Deterrent; Operation - Cadillac 2011 DTS Owner's Manual

Press this side of the button to turn the lockout
feature on. When the lockout feature is turned on,
the trunk cannot be unlocked with the keyless entry
transmitter or the trunk release button located near the
headlamp switch on the instrument panel.
If the valet lockout feature is on it will also disable the
Universal Home Remote transmitter, if equipped.
Locking the glove box with your key will also help to
secure your vehicle.
See Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation on
page 3 4 and Trunk on page 3 12 for additional
information.
The security light
is located on the
instrument panel cluster.
To arm the system:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door using the power door lock switch
with the door open or the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter. The security light will flash.
3. Close all the doors. The security light will come on
and stay on for approximately 30 seconds.
If a door or the trunk is opened without a key or a RKE
transmitter the horn will sound and the lamps will flash
for about 30 seconds.
The theft-deterrent system will not arm if you lock the
doors with a key or use the manual door lock. It arms
only if you use a power door lock with the door open or
the RKE transmitter.
To avoid arming the alarm by accident:
Lock the vehicle with the door key or the manual
door lock.
Always unlock a door with a key or use the RKE
transmitter system. Pressing the unlock button on
the RKE transmitter, or unlocking a door with the
key disarms the content theft-deterrent system.
Unlocking a door any other way will activate the
alarm when a door or the trunk is opened.
