Engineering innovations, con-
veniences and styling dominated the

Speed Sensitive Steering (11 5s)
This system varies the amount of steering effort proportiabate to
your vehicle speed. Steering
is eesier at a lower speed for increased
maneuverability and parking ease.
As your vehicle speed increases, the'"-:
steering effort is also increased proportionately. At highway speeds the
amount
of steering effort is increased to provide a manual like steering
feel for maximum control and enhanced vehicle stability.

Road Sensing Suspension
The Road Sensing Suspension automatically controls the ride of your
vehicle. The system controls damping
forces in the shock absorbers and
struts
in response to various road and driving conditions. The system is
capable
of making these changes within milli-seconds.
The Road Sensing Suspension controller is a computer used to control and
monitor the system. The computer receives inputs from vertical acceleration
sensors, wheel to body position sensors, vehicle speed sensor, lift and dive
signals,
and determines optimum strut valving or (suspension stiffness) for
your current operating conditions. The computer a1,so receives feedback

average driver
will get. Your fuel economy may be significantly higher or
lower, depending
on how, when, and where your vehicle is driven. Here
are some things you can do to increase fuel economy;
Combine errands into one trip.
Turn the engine off rather than letting it idle for more than a minute.
Have your Cadillac serviced as described in the maintenance booklet.
Keep tires inflated to recommended pressures.
Anticipate traffic stops.
Here are some things that
will lower fuel economy:
Quick acceleration.
Traveling at higher speeds. Traveling at 65 mph instead of 55 mph
0 Carrying unnecessary weight in the vehicle.
Rewing the engine. This is not necessary for your vehicle.
lowers fuel economy
by 15 percent.
Operating your vehicle with the suspension out of alignment or with
the wheels and tires out of balance.
Use of electrical accessories which require high amperage when they
are not needed.
Even things beyond your control such as weather conditions affe\
ct your
fuel economy. Driving up steep hills, in rain or snow, and into a strong
wind will lower fuel economy. In the lower
left corner of the fuel
economy window sticker from your vehicle is the range
of city and
highway
fuel economy you can expect to get from your Cadillac. If you
are doing everything to raise your fuel economy, but are still not within
this range, your vehicle may need service. Collect as much information
about your
fuel economy as you can find, (miles driven, gallon's of
fuel used, etc.) and provide it to your dealership for their review and
assistance. LA
