Programmable Automatic Door Locks; Rear Door Security Locks - Cadillac 2005 CTS Owner's Manual

Programmable Automatic
Door Locks
If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, 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 back into PARK (P).
If your vehicle has a manual transmission, the vehicle is
programmed so that the doors will lock automatically
after the vehicle speed reaches 5 mph (8 km). The doors
will not automatically unlock until the ignition is turned
off and the key is removed from the ignition switch.
If someone needs to exit the vehicle once the doors are
locked, have that 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
the power door lock switch to lock the door.
The power door locks can be programmed through
prompts displayed on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). These prompts allow you to choose
various lock and unlock settings. For more information
on programming, see DIC Vehicle Personalization
on page 3-74 .
