To Resume a Set Speed
Suppose you set your Cruise Control at a desired speed and then you
apply the brake. This, of course, shuts
off the Cruise Control. But you
don’t need to reset it. Once you’re going about
25 mph (40 kmih) or
more, you can move the Cruise Control switch from
“ON” to “./A”

Speedometer and Qdometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles per hour (mph)
and kilometers per hour (kmih). Your odometer shows how far your
vehicle has been driven, in either miles (used in the
U.S.) or kilometers
(used
in Canada).

You can tell how far you’ve gone since you last set it back to zero. To

ODOMETER
Your Cadillac Brougham has a “tamper-resistant odometer.” If your
odometer displays
ERROR, someone has tampered with it.
You may wonder what happens if a car has to have a new odometer
installed. The new speedometer has to be programmed with the correct
mileage as the old one.
If it can’t be, then it is set at zero, but a label on
the driver’s door must show the old reading and when the new one was
installed.

even say to change it before
3000 miles under severe conditions. It all
depends on your driving patterns. (If it doesn’t, or
if it doesn’t even light
up, then something is wrong.
You will need to have it serviced.)
There are
two things the system won’t do: It can’t sense heavy dust in the
places where you drive.
If you drive in a dusty area, you should change
your oil every
3000 miles (5000 krn) or 3 months (whichever comes first),
unless the
“CHANGE OIL? light comes on sooner.
It doesn’t check how much oil you have
so you will still have to check for
that.
To check it, see the Index under “Engine Oil.”
When You’ve Changed the Oil
When new oil is put in, you’ll need to reset your system. To do that, turn
the ignition switch to the
“ON” position with the engine stopped. Fully
depress and release the accelerator pedal
3 times within 5 seconds.
If the “CHANGE OK’ light comes on and stays on for
5 seconds, it did

you have to park outside in
very cold weather, 0°F (-18OC) or colder. If
your vehicle has this option, see “Engine Block Heater”
in the Index.
How
To Reset the Oil Life Indicator: After the oil has been changed,
you’ll need to reset your system.
To do that, turn the ignition switch to the
“ON” position with the engine stopped fully depress and release the
accelerator pedal

What to
Do with Used Oil:
A CAUTION:
Used engine oil contains things that have caused skin cancer in
laboratory animals. Don’t let used oil stay on your skin for very
long. Clean your skin and nails with soap and water, or a good
hand cleaner. Wash or properly throw away clothing or rags
containing used engine oil.
Used oil can be a real threat to the environment. If you change your own
oil, be sure to drain all free-flowing oil from the filter before disposal.
-
Don’t ever dispose of oil by pouring it on the ground, into sewers, or into
streams or bodies of water. Instead, recycle it by taking
it to a place that
collects used oil. If you have a problem properly disposing of your used
oil, ask your dealer, a service station or
a local recycling center for help.
