Cadillac XT5 key function description: Press the circular button to lock the car, then press and hold it to remotely start the vehicle. First press the lock button once, then hold down the remote start button, and the car will start. This theory ensures that the car can be started remotely only when it is locked, ensuring vehicle safety. However, you need to first enter this function in the central console interface and enable it before the car key can start the vehicle. Below is a related introduction to the Cadillac XT5: Power section: The new generation Cadillac XT5 is equipped with Cadillac's new 2.0T variable cylinder turbocharged engine, with a maximum output power of 198kW and a peak torque of 400N·m. In the transmission system, it is matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission, and some models also come with a four-wheel drive system. Interior section: Multimedia control buttons and knobs are placed in front of the central armrest box, and the design is very user-friendly, making it easy for the driver to operate. The interior is also wrapped in large areas of soft materials, greatly improving comfort. It is equipped with the next-generation CUE system and also features a 360-degree panoramic camera, CarPlay, OnStar, a dashcam, automatic parking, and other functions.
The buttons on my Cadillac key fob work really well, and after all these years of use, I feel the design is quite reasonable. Generally, there are several main buttons on the key fob: the unlock button opens all doors with a single press, making it convenient for getting in and out; the lock button secures the doors against theft; the alarm button or car locator button, when pressed, makes the car flash its lights and honk to help you find it, especially in large parking lots; the trunk button opens the trunk with one press for loading items; and the remote start button allows you to start the engine in advance to warm up or turn on the AC in cold or hot weather. Sometimes, button combinations can be used to set personalized functions, such as double-clicking the unlock button to open only the driver’s door for added security. If the buttons stop responding, it might be due to a weak battery needing replacement with a new CR2032 battery—it’s recommended to check every year or two to avoid failure at critical moments. Overall, the key fob is durable, but accidentally dropping it can damage the button contacts.
