You can ask a hitch dealer about sway controls.
0 Don’t tow a trailer at all during the first 500 miles (800 km) your new
vehicle is driven. Your engine, axle or other parts could be damaged.
Then, during the first 500 miles (800 km) that you tow a trailer, don’t
drive over 50 mph (80 kmih) and don’t make starts at full throttle.
This helps your engine and other parts
of your vehicle wear in at the
heavier loads.
When towing a trailer, close all windows and set the Electronic
Climate Control System
to “ECON”, “AUTO”, “DEFOG” or
Defroster to assure that the fan is running.
Three important considerations have to do with weight:
1. Weight of the nailer
How heavy can a trailer safely be?
It should never weigh more than 1,000 pounds (450 kg). But even
that can be too heavy.
It depends on how you plan to use your rig. For example, speed,
altitude, road grades, outside temperature and how much your
vehicle
is used to pull a trailer are all important. And, it can also
depend on any special equipment that you have on your vehicle.
You can ask your dealer for our trailering information or advice, or
you can write
us at Cadillac.
In Canada, write to General Motors of Canada Limited, Customer
Assistance Center,
1908 Colonel Sam Drive, Oshawa, Ontario L1H
8P7.
2. Weight of the Trailer Tongue
When a trailer is connected to your vehicle, the trailer tongue adds
to the weight your vehicle is carrying.
So, remember to subtract the
weight of the trailer tongue from your vehicle’s capacity weight.

window as necessary.
3. Try to keep your engine under load (in a drive gear where the engine
runs slower).
If you no longer have the overheat warning, you can drive. Just to be safe,
drive slower
for about ten minutes. If the warning doesn’t come back on,
you can drive normally.
If the warning continues, pull over, stop, and park your vehicle right
away.
If there’s still no sign of steam, you can idle the engine for two or three
minutes while you’re parked, to see
if the warning stops. But then, if you
still have the warning, TURN
OFF THE ENGINE AND GET
EVERYONE OUT OF THE VEHICLE until it cools down.
You may decide not to lift the hood but to get service help right away.

INSTRUMENT
PANEL
Use only mild soap and water to clean the top surfaces of the instrument
panel. Sprays containing silicones or waxes may cause annoying
reflections
in the windshield and even make it difficult to see through the
windshield under certain conditions.
Care of Wood Panels
Use a clean cloth moistened in warm soapy water (use mild dish
washing soap).
Dry the wood immediately with a clean cloth.
Wood surfaces can be polished using ordinaryhousehold furniture
polishes. Apply the polish to a clean cloth, then rub the cloth
on the
wood panel.
CARE OF SAFETYBELTS
Keep belts clean and dry.
A CAUTION:
Do not bleach or dye safety belts. If you do, it may severely
weaken them.
In a crash they might not be able to provide
adequate protection. Clean safety belts only with mild soap and
luE varm water.
GLASS
Glass should be cleaned often. GM Glass Cleaner (GM Part No.
1050427) or a liquid household glass cleaner will remove normal tobacco
smoke and dust films.
Don’t use abrasive cleaners on glass, because they may cause scratches.
Avoid placing decals
on the inside rear window, since they may have to be
scraped
off later. If abrasive cleaners are used on the inside of the rear
window, an electric defogger element may be damaged. Any temporary
license should not be attached across
the defogger grid.

Retained Accessory Power
When you stop your Cadillac and turn the key to Off, you can use these
accessories for
10 more minutes:
0 Radio
0 Power Windows
0 Astroroof
0 Windshield Wipers
If you open a door, everything will go off. And, after
10 minutes
everything will go off, also.
If you want power for another
10 minutes, just turn the key to Run and
then back to Off.
FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREDRS
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a
combination of Mini Fuses, Circuit Breakers, and Maxi Fuses. This
greatly reduces the chance
of fires caused by electrical problems.
If you have a problem on the road and don’t have a spare fuse, you can
“borrow” one of the same value. Select a feature that you can get along
without that is the same value you need
-- like the radio or cigarette
lighter
-- and use its fuse. Be sure to use a fuse with the same amperage
rating number on it (ie.
lOA, 20A, etc.) Replace it as soon as you can.

There is a fuse
removal tool and some
spare mini fuses in the
glove box door, just lift
the cover up.

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
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.
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.
