Always check to make sure the area above and behind the liftgate is clear before opening it. Choose the power liftgate mode by turning the dial on the switch until the indicator lines up with the desired position. The three modes are: MAX : The liftgate power opens to the full open height. 3/4 : The liftgate power opens to a reduced open height that can be set by the vehicle operator in a range of approximately 3/4 open to full open. Use this setting to prevent the liftgate from opening into overhead obstructions such as a garage door or roof mounted cargo during power operation. The liftgate can still be opened fully manually.


OFF: The liftgate only operates manually in this position. Manual operation of a liftgate that also has power operation requires more effort than with a standard manual liftgate. In either the MAX or the 3/4 mode, the liftgate can be power opened and closed by:


. Pressing & on the Remote


Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter until the liftgate starts moving. See Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation on page 1‑3 .


. Pressing & on the center of the mode switch on the driver door, with the driver door unlocked.


. Pressing the touchpad switch on


the liftgate outside handle, with all doors unlocked, to open the liftgate.


Press and release & on the liftgate adjacent to the latch to close the liftgate. Pressing any liftgate button, or the touchpad switch while the liftgate is moving, stops it. Pressing the button or RKE switch again reverses the direction. There is a minimum distance that the power liftgate must already be open for the system to hold it open. If movement is stopped below that minimum, the liftgate closes. Do not force the liftgate open or closed during a power cycle.

The power liftgate may be temporarily disabled under extreme temperatures or low battery conditions. If this occurs, the liftgate can still be operated manually. If you shift the transmission out of P (Park) while the power function is in progress, the liftgate power function will continue to completion. If you shift the transmission out of P (Park) and accelerate before the power liftgate latch is closed, the liftgate may reverse to the open position. Cargo could fall out of the vehicle. Always make sure the power liftgate is closed and latched before you drive away. If you power open the liftgate and the liftgate support struts have lost pressure, the turn signals flash and a chime sounds. The liftgate stays open temporarily, then slowly closes. See your dealer for service before using the liftgate.


Obstacle Detection Features If the liftgate encounters an obstacle during a power open or close cycle, a warning chime will sound and the liftgate will automatically reverse direction to the full closed or open position. After removing the obstruction, the power liftgate operation can be used again. If the liftgate encounters multiple obstacles on the same power cycle, the power function will deactivate. The Power Liftgate Unavailable warning message in the Driver Information Center (DIC) will display. After removing the obstructions, the liftgate will resume normal power operation. The vehicle has pinch sensors located on the side edges of the liftgate. If an object is caught between the liftgate and the body and presses against this sensor, the liftgate will reverse direction and open fully. The liftgate will remain open until it is activated again or closed manually.


Setting the Power Liftgate 3/4 Mode To change the liftgate stop position: 1. Turn the liftgate switch to either


the MAX, or the 3/4 mode position and power open the liftgate.


2. Stop the liftgate movement at the desired height by pressing any liftgate switch. Manually adjust the liftgate position if required.


3. Press and hold the button on the liftgate adjacent to the latch until the turn signals flash and a beep sounds to indicate that the new setting is recorded.


When power opened with the 3/4 mode selected, the liftgate stops at the new set position.

If you do not hear the audible and visual feedback when setting the intermediate stop position, you are attempting to set the height below the 3/4 open height minimum (approximately 5 feet). The liftgate cannot be set below that minimum and the new setting will not be recorded. Manual Operation of Power Liftgate To change the liftgate to manual operation, turn the mode switch to the OFF position. With the power liftgate disabled and all of the doors unlocked, the liftgate can be manually opened and closed. Manual efforts of a vehicle equipped with a power liftgate will be higher than a standard non-power liftgate.


To open the liftgate, press the touchpad on the handle on the outside of the liftgate, and lift the gate open. To close the liftgate, use the pull cup to lower the liftgate and close. With the power liftgate disabled, the liftgate electric latch will still power latch once contact is made with the striker. Always close the liftgate before driving. If the RKE button is pressed while power operation is disabled, the turn signals flash and the liftgate will not move. The liftgate has an electric latch. If the battery is disconnected or has low voltage, the liftgate will not open. The liftgate will resume operation when the battery is reconnected and charged.


Vehicle Security This vehicle has theft-deterrent features; however, they do not make it impossible to steal.


Anti-Theft Alarm System This vehicle has an anti-theft alarm system. The LED light, located on the instrument panel near the windshield, indicates the status of the system. Arming the System To arm the system, 1. Close all doors, liftgate


and hood.


2. Lock the vehicle using the


transmitter, or the power door lock button. The LED on the instrument panel should come on and stay on for about 30 seconds.


Cadillac SRX Owner Manual - 2010


Black plate (18,1)


1-18


Keys, Doors and Windows


3. After 30 seconds, the alarm


system will arm, and the LED will begin to slowly flash indicating the alarm is operating.


If a door, the hood, or liftgate is opened without first unlocking with the transmitter, the vehicle’s turn signals will flash and the horn will sound for about 30 seconds. The alarm system will then re-arm to monitor for the next unauthorized event. The theft-deterrent alarm system will not activate if the doors are locked with the vehicle's key. You can start the vehicle with a recognized transmitter in the vehicle if the alarm has been set off.


Disarming the System To disarm the system, either unlock the doors using the transmitter, or start the vehicle with a recognized transmitter in the vehicle. To avoid setting off the alarm by accident:


Lock the vehicle with the transmitter after all occupants have left the vehicle and all doors are closed.


. Always unlock a door with the


transmitter. Unlocking a door any other way will not disarm the alarm.


If you set off the alarm by accident, turn off the alarm by pressing the unlock button on the transmitter. The alarm will not stop if you try to unlock a door any other way.


How to Detect a Tamper Condition If K is pressed and the horn chirps three times, an attempted break-in has occurred while the system was armed. If the alarm has been activated, the “Theft Attempted” message will appear on the DIC. See Key and Lock Messages on page 4‑37 for additional information.

When trying to start the vehicle, the security light comes on briefly when the ignition is turned on. If the engine does not start and the security light stays on there is a problem with the system. Turn the ignition off and try again. If the vehicle will not change ignition modes (ACC/ACCESSORY, ON/RUN/START, OFF), and the keyless entry transmitter appears to be undamaged, try another keyless entry transmitter. Or, you may try placing the transmitter in the transmitter pocket located in the center console. See “No Remote Detected” under Key and Lock Messages on page 4‑37.


The security light, located in the instrument panel cluster, comes on if there is a problem with arming or disarming the theft-deterrent system. The system has one or more keyless entry transmitters that are matched to an immobilizer control unit in your vehicle. Only a correctly matched keyless entry transmitter will start the vehicle. If the keyless entry transmitter is ever damaged, you may not be able to start your vehicle.


Immobilizer See Radio Frequency Statement on page 12‑17 for information regarding Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules and Industry Canada Standards RSS-210/220/310.


Immobilizer Operation This vehicle has a passive theft-deterrent system. The system does not have to be manually armed or disarmed. The vehicle is automatically immobilized when the vehicle is turned off. The immobilization system is disarmed when the pushbutton start is activated to enter the ACC/ACCESSORY mode or the ON/RUN/START mode and a valid transmitter is present in the vehicle.

If the ignition modes will not change with the other transmitter, your vehicle needs service. If the ignition does change modes, the first transmitter may be faulty. See your dealer who can service the theft-deterrent system and have a new keyless entry transmitter programmed to the vehicle. It is possible for the immobilizer system to learn new or replacement keyless entry transmitters. Up to eight keyless entry transmitters can be programmed for the vehicle. To program additional transmitters, see “Programming Transmitters to the Vehicle” Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation on page 1‑3 . Do not leave the key or device that disarms or deactivates the theft deterrent system in the vehicle.
