DO NOT USE SAE 1OW-40, SAE 2OW-50 OR ANY OTHER GRADE OIL NOT RECOMMENDED
As shown in the chart, SAE 1OW-30 is best for your vehicle. However,
you can use
SAE 5W-30 if it's going to be colder than 60 OF (16 C)
before your next oil change. When it's very cold, you should use SAE
5W-30. These numbers on an oil container show its viscosity, or thickness.
Do not use other viscosity oils, such as SAE 1OW-40 or SAE 2OW-50.

Your Cadillac dealer has a GM White Sidewall Tire Cleaner. You can use
a stiff brush with the cleaner.
WEATHERSTRlpS
Silicone lubricant on weatherstrips will allow them to last longer, seal
better, and not stick or squeak. Apply silicone grease with a clean cloth at
least
every six months. During very cold, damp weather more frequent
applications may be required. (See “Recommended Fluids
& Lubricants”
in the Index.)
SHEETMETAL DMGE
If your vehicle is damaged and requires sheet metal repair or
replacement, make sure the body repair shop applies anti-corrosion
material to the parts repaired or replaced to restore corrosion protection.
FOREIGNIMATERbU
Calcium chloride and other salts, ice melting agents, road oil and tar, tree
sap, bird droppings, chemicals from industrial cbimneys, and other
foreign matter can damage your vehicle’s finish
if they remain on painted
surfaces. Use cleaners that are marked safe for painted surfaces to
remove foreign matter.
FINISH DMGE
Any stone chips, fractures or deep scratches in the finish should be
repaired right away. Bare metal will corrode quickly and may develop
into a major repair expense.
308
Minor chips and scratches can be repaired with touch-up materials
available from your dealer or other service outlets. Larger areas of finish
damage can be corrected in your dealer’s body and paint shop.
