1993 CADILLAC DEVILLE warning lights

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine may think drivers behind you are seeing your signal when they are not.
It’s important to check occasionally to be sure the trailer bulbs are still
working.
Your vehicle has bulb warning lights. When you plug trailer lights into
your vehicle’s lighting system, its bulb warning lights may not let you
know if one
of your lights goes out. So, when you have trailer lights
plugged in, be sure to check your vehicle and trailer lights
from time to
time to be sure they’re all working. Once you disconnect the trailer lights,
the bulb warning lights again can tell you if one of your vehicle lights is
out.
Driving On Grades
Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear before you start down a long or
steep downgrade.
If you don’t shift down, you might have to use your
brakes
so much that they would get hot and no longer work well.
On a long uphill grade, shift down to “3” (Drive) and reduce your speed
to
45 mph (70 km/h) to reduce the possibility of engine and transaxle
overheating.
Parking on Hills
You really should not park your vehicle, with a trailer attached, on a hill.
If something goes wrong, your rig could start to move. People can be
injured, and both your vehicle and the trailer can be damaged.
But if you ever have to park your rig on a hill, here’s how to do it:
1. Apply your regular brakes, but don’t shift into “P” (Park) yet.
2. Have someone place chocks under the trailer wheels.
3. When the wheel chocks are in place, release the regular brakes until
the chocks absorb the load.
4. Reapply the regular brakes. Then shift into “P” (Park) firmly and
apply your parking brake.
5. Release the regular brakes.

YOU will find the two warning lights about a hot engine on your Cadillac
instrument panel.
If Steam Is Coming From Your Engine:
A CAUTION:
Steam from an overheated engine can burn you badly, even if
you just open the hood. Stay
away from the engine if you see or
hear steam coming from it. Just turn it
off and get everyone
away from the vehicle until it cools down. Wait until there is no
sign
of steam or coolant before opening the hood.
If you keep driving when your engine is overheated, the liquids
in it can catch fire. You or others could be badly burned. Stop
your engine if it overheats, and get out
of the vehicle until the I

The following explains your cooling system and how to add coolant when
it is
low. If you have a problem with engine overheating, see “Engine
Overheating” in the Index.
The proper coolant for your Cadillac will:
0 Give freezing protection down to -34°F (-37°C) .
0 Give boiling protection up to 262°F (128” C) .
0 Protect against rust and corrosion.
Help keep the proper engine temperature.
0 Let the warning lights work as they should.
What to Use:
Use a mixture
of one-half clean water (preferably distilled) and one-half
antifreeze that meets “GM Specification 1825-M,” which won’t damage
aluminum parts.
You can also use a recycled coolant conforming to GM
Specification 1825-M with a complete coolant flush and refill. Use GM
Engine Coolant Supplement (sealer) with any complete coolant change.
If you use these, you don’t need to add anything else.
A CAUTION:
Adding only plain water to your cooling system can be
dangerous. Plain water,
or some other liquid like alcohol, can
boil before the proper coolant mix
will. Your vehicle’s coolant
warning system is set for the proper coolant mix. With plain
water or the wrong mix, your engine could get too hot but you
wouldn’t get the overheat warning. Your engine could catch fire
and
you or others could be burned. Use a 50/50 mix of clean
Waf--- and
a proper anti” e. .-

The headlight wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in the light switch.
An electrical overload
will cause the lights to go on and off, or in some
cases to remain off.
If this happens, have your headlight wiring checked
right away.
Windshield Wipers
r
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit breaker and a fuse.
If the motor overheats due to heavy snow, etc., the wiper will stop until
the motor cools. If the overload is caused by some electrical problem and
not snow, etc.,
be sure to get it fixed.
I_
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect the power windows and other
power accessories. When the current load is too heavy, the circuit breaker
-
opens and closes, protecting the circuit until the problem is fixed or goes
away.
