to a normal operating range, you must
select “AUTO”, “DEFOG”
, or Defrost to start the compressor. If this

This message will appear if your battery is not being charged. Have your
electrical system checked by
your Cadillac dealership at your earliest
convenience.

This message shows that the electrical charging system is overcharging,
(more than
16 volts). To avoid being stranded have the electrical system
checked by your Cadillac dealership at your earliest convenience.

volts.
BATTERY VOLTS LOW
This message will appear when the electrical system is charging less than
10 volts, or if the battery has been drained. If this message appears
immediately after starting it is possible
that the generator can still
recharge the battery. The battery should recharge after driving a few
miles and the message should go out. If this message appears while
driving or after starting
your vehicle and stays on, have it checked
immediately to determine the cause
of this problem. To help the
generator recharge the battery quickly, you can reduce the load on the
electrical system by turning
off your accessories. You can monitor battery
voltage
