You’ll need more passing distance up ahead when you’re towing a trailer.
And, because you’re a good deal longer, you’ll need
to go much farther
beyond the passed vehicle before you can return to your lane.
Backing Up
Hold the bottom of the steering wheel with one hand. Then, to move the
trailer to the left, just move that hand to the left.
To move the trailer to
the right, move your hand to
the right. Always back up slowly and, if
possible, have someone guide you.
Making Turns
When you’re turning with a trailer, make wider turns than normal. Do
this so your trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs, road signs, trees, or
other objects. Avoid jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well
in advance.
Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has to have a different turn signal
flasher and extra wiring. The green arrows on your instrument panel will
flash whenever
you signal a turn or lane change. Properly hooked up, the
trailer lights will also flash, telling other drivers you’re about to turn,
change lanes or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows on your instrument panel will
flash for turns
even if the bulbs on the trailer are burned out. Thus, you
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.
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 and reduce your speed to around
45
mph (70 km/h) or less to reduce the possibility of engine and transaxle
overheating.

sure the vehicles aren’t touching each other.
If they are, it could cause
a ground connection
you don’t want. You wouldn’t be able to start
your Cadillac, and the bad grounding could damage the electrical
systems.

A CAUTION:
You could be injured if the vehicles roll. Set the parking brake
firmly on each vehicle. Put an automatic transaxle in
“P”
‘”ark).

3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Turn off all lights that aren’t
needed, and radios. This
will avoid sparks and help save both
batteries. And it could save your radio!
4. Open the hoods and locate the batteries.
A CAUTION:
An electric fan can start up even when the engine is not running
and can injure you. Keep hands, clothing and tools away from
any underhood elc ric fan.
Find the positive
(+) and negative (-) terminals on each battery.

The flat tire should be placed in the spare tire well.
COMPACT SPARE TIRE
Although the compact spare was fully inflated when your vehicle was
new,
it can lose air after a time. Check the inflation pressure regularly. It
should be 60 psi (420 kPa). The compact spare is made to go up to 3,000
miles (5000 km), so you can finish your trip and have your full-size tire
repaired or replaced where you want. Of course, it’s best
to replace your
spare
with a full-size tire as soon as you can. Your spare will last longer
and be
in good shape in case you need it again.
Your anti-lock brake system warning li.ght
may come on when you are
driving
with a compact spare. See “Anti-Lock Brake System Warning
Light” in the Index.

your linings are worn, then you’ll have too much fluid when you get new
brake linings. You should add (or remove) brake fluid, as necessary, only
when work is done on the brake hydraulic system.
A
If you
CAUTION:
have too much brake fluid, it can spill on the engine. The
fluid will burn if the engine is hot enough.
You or others could
be burned, and your vehicle could be damaged. Add brake fluid
only when work
is done on the brake hydraulic system.
When your brake fluid falls to a low level, the “CHECK BRAKE
FLUID” message will display on the Driver Information Center and your
brake warning light will come on. See “Brake System Warning Light” in
the Index.
To Check Brake Fluid - 4.9 Liter:
Remove the cap.
The fluid level must be
to the
“MAX FILE
line at the base of the
neck as shown.
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To Check Brake Fluid - 4.6 Liter (Northstar):
You can check the brake fluid without taking off the cap. Just look at the
indicators on the brake fluid reservoir. The fluid levels should be above
“MIN.” If they aren’t, have your brake system checked to see if there is a
leak.
After work is done on the brake hydraulic system, make sure the level is
above
“MIN” and or slightly below or at the “MAX” indicator.
What to Add:
When you do need brake fluid, use only DOT-3 brake fluid -- such as
Delco Supreme
1 la (GM Part No.1052535). Use new brake. fluid from a
sealed container only.
