If you plan  on driving  in  another country  outside the U.S. or Canada, 
unleaded  fuel  may be  hard  to find. 
Do not  use  leaded  gasoline.  If  you use 
even  one tankful,  your  emission  controls  won’t  work 
well or at all.  With 
continuous  use,  spark  plugs  can  get  fouled,  the exhaust  system  can 
corrode,  and  your  engine  oil  can  deteriorate quickly.  Your  vehicle’s 
oxygen  sensor will be  damaged.  All  of that  means  costly  repairs  that 
wouldn’t  be  covered  by your  warranty. 
To  check  on fuel  availability,  ask  an  auto club,  or contact  a  major  oil 
company  that does  business  in  the country  where  you’ll  be  driving. 
You  can  also  write  us  at  the following  address  for  advice.  Just  tell  us 
where  you’re  going  and  give  your  Vehicle  Identification  Numbe\
r  (VIN).

FUEL ECONOMY 
Your fuel economy  (miles  per  gallon  or liters  per 100 kilometers)  can  vary 
depending  on how  your  Cadillac  is  driven.  Several  vehicles  like  yours 
have  been  driven  through  a  standard  test  and  their  actual  fuel  econ\
omy 
was  recorded.  These  readings  were  adjusted  and  printed  on the  fuel 
economy  window  sticker  which  was  attached 
to your new Cadillac  when  it 
was  delivered  and  in the  Gas  Mileage  Guide  which  is  available  from  your 
dealership. 
The  fuel  economy  estimates  are based  on  results  of tests  required  by the 
U. S. Environmental  Protection  Agency  (EPA).  These  tests  are used  to 
certify  that vehicles  meet  the Federal  emissions  and  fuel  economy 
standards.  Cadillac  tests  prototypes  of  new vehicles  and  submits  the 
results  to the  EPA.  The EPA  then  confirms  the  accuracy  of 
the figures 
provided  by Cadillac.  The vehicles  are driven  by a  professional  driver 
under  controlled  laboratory  conditions,  on  an  instrument  similar \
 to 
a 
treadmill.  These  procedures ensure that  each  vehicle  is  tested  under 
identical  conditions.

While.-refueling, hang 
the cap inside  the fuel 
door. 
To take off the cap,  turn  it slowly to the left (counterclockwise). 
,. . .. . .. . .. . .. 
When you put  the  cap back  on,  turn  it to  the  right  until you hear a 
clicking  noise. 
NOTICE: 
If you  need  a new cap, be sure to get the right type. Your dealer 
can  get  one 
for you. If you  get  the wrong type, it  may not fit and 
your  he1 tank and emissions system  might  be  damaged.

NOTICE: 
.. - , .., .. . **:. 7 ' . ..._ ^ . , 
Don't let anyone tell you  that  underinflation or overinflation is 
all right. It's not. If your  tires don't  have  enough air 
(underinflation)  you can get: 
Too much  flexing., 
Too much  heat 
Tire  overloading 
0 Badwear 
Bad handling 
0 Bad  fuel  economy. 
If your tires have  too  much air (overinflation),  you can ger: 
Unusual  wear 
Bad handling 
Rough  ride 
0 Needless  damage  from  road hazards. 
How  to Check 
Use  a  good  quality  pocket-type  gage  to check  tire 
pressure.  Simply  looking  at the  tires  will  not  tell 
you the pressure, 
especially 
if you  have  radial  tires -- which  may look properly'  inflated  even 
if they're  underinflated. 
If your  tires  have  valve  caps,  be  sure to put  them  back  on.  They  help 
prevent  leaks  by keeping  out  dirt  and  moisture. 
When to Check Check your tires  once  a  month  or more. 
The  Eldorado  tire pressures  are: 
0 Front - 28  psi  (190  Pa) 
Rear - 26 psi (180 kPa)
