Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles per hour (mph)
and kilometers per hour (km/h). Your odometer shows
how far your
vehicle has been driven, in either miles (used in the
U.S.) or kilometers
(used in Canada).
EnglishlMetric Button
You can go back and
forth from English
(miles) to metric
(kilometers)
by pushing
this button.
The same button also makes other readings (like temperature, fuel and
odometer)
go between English and metric.

You can tell how far
you’ve gone since you
last set it back to zero.
To reset, push and hold
the button until it
zeros.
If your vehicle is domestic, the trip odometer will return to zero after
999.9 miles (1609
km). If your vehicle. is Canadian or Export, the trip
odometer will return to zero after 1999.9
km (1242 miles).
Odometer
You may wonder what happens if a car has to have a new odometer
installed. The new one will read the correct mileage. This is because your
car’s computer has stored the mileage in memory.
WARNING LIGHTS
This section describes the warning lights that are on your vehicle. The
pictures will help you locate them.
Warning lights can signal that something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying
attention to your warning lights could also save you or others
from injury.
Warning lights go on when there may be or is a problem with one of your
vehicle’s functions.
As you will see in the details on the next few pages,
some warning lights come on briefly when you turn the ignition key just to
let
you know they’re working. If you are familiar with this section, you
should not be alarmed when this happens.
When one
of the warning lights comes on and stays on when you are
driving, check the section that tells you what to do about it. Please follow
131

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine the manual’s advice. Waiting to do repairs can be costly -- and even
dangerous.
So please get to know your warning lights. They’re a big help.
Your vehicle may also have a driver information system that works along
with the warning lights. See “Driver Information System”
in the Index.
Brake System Warning Light
If the warning light comes on, there could be a brake problem. Have your
brake system inspected right away.
Your Cadillac’s
hydraulic brake system
is divided into two
parts. If one part isn’t
working, the other part
can still work and stop
you. For good braking,
though, you need both
parts working well.
This light should come
on as you start the vehicle. If it doesn’t come on
then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there’s a problem.
If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the road and stop
carefully.
You may notice that the pedal is harder to push. Or, the pedal
may go closer to the floor. It may take longer to stop. If the light
is still
on, have the vehicle towed for service. (See “Towing Your Vehicle” in the
Index.)
