Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your Cruise Control will work on hills depends upon your
speed, load, and the steepness of the hills. When going up steep hills, you
may have to step
on the accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. When
going downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear to keep
your speed down.
Of course, applying the brake takes you out of Cruise
Control. Many drivers find this
to be too much trouble and don’t use
Cruise Control on steep hills.
To Get Out of Cruise Control
There are two ways to turn off the Cruise Control:
Step lightly on the
brake pedal;

If you cover the sensor, it will sense that it is dark outside and your lights
will come on.
Cornering Lights
If your exterior lights are on, the cornering lights will come on when you
signal a turn. This will provide more light for cornering when its dark.
Underhood Light
Your vehicle has a Delay Interior Lighting System (DIL). This system
controls power to the underhood light. Just pull up on the door handle
,with the hood raised and the lamp will light for about
10 minutes.
Every time the door handle is pulled up the light will stay on another
10 minutes. The light will go off when you close the hood.
Daytime Running Lights (Canada Only)
The Canadian Federal Government has decided that “Daytime Running
Lights’’ (DRL) are a useful feature, in that DRL can make your vehicle
more visible to pedestrians and other drivers during daylight hours. DRL
are required on new vehicles sold in Canada.
Your DRL work with a light sensor on top of the instrument panel. Don’t
cover it up.
The high beam headlights will come on at reduced brightness in daylight
when:
0 The ignition is on
0 The headlight switch is off, and
The transmission is not in “P” (Park).
At dusk, the DRL will switch
off and the exterior lights will come on
automatically. At dawn, the exterior lights will go out and the high beams
will change to the reduced brightness of DRL (if the headlight switch is
Of course, you may still turn
on the headlights any time you need to.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, shift the transmission into “P”
(Park), turn the ignition OFF, and then restart your engine. The DRL will
stay off until you shift out of “P” (Park).

Cleaning Photocells

Use a cotton swab and glass cleaner to clean the front and rear photocells
that make the mirror work.

If the light stays on, turn the ignition off. Or, if the light comes on when
you’re driving, stop as soon as possible and turn the ignition off. Then
start the engine again to reset the system. If the light still stays on, or
comes on again while you’re driving, your Cadillac needs service.
If the
regular brake system warning light isn’t on, you still have brakes, but you
don’t have anti-lock brakes. If the regular brake system warning light is
also on,
you don’t have anti-lock brakes and there’s a problem with your
regular brakes. See “Brake System Warning Light” earlier
in this part.
The anti-lock brake system warning light may also come on when you are
driving with
a compact spare tire. If this happens, the light means you
won’t have anti-lock until you replace the compact spare with a full-size
tire. If the warning light stays
on after you replace the compact spare with
a full-size tire, or if it comes on again when you’re driving, your Cadillac
needs service.
Traction Control System Lights
Traction Engaged
This light will go on as
a bulb check when you
start your engine. It
will also come on when
the traction control
system is active.

TRACTION
CONTROL
This light will come on
when you first start
your vehicle or when
you turn
off the system.
If it ever comes
on and
stays
on, it means that
your traction control
system
is not working,
and you should have it
serviced as soon as
possible.
These lights are deleted on Coach Builder limousines and funeral coach
packages.

Charge Light
When you turn the key
to “Run” or “Start”,

If a light stays on, you need service, and you should take your Cadillac to
the dealer at once.
To save your battery until you get there, turn off all
accessories, and set your Electronic Climate Control system to
“OFF.”
Low Oil Level Light
If it doesn’t come on, have it repaired. If the light comes on and stays on,
your engine oil level is too low. Check your oil level and add enough oil
to bring the engine oil level
up to the proper level. See “Engine Oil” in
the Index.
