1994 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD warning

rags containing used engine oil. (See the manufacturer’s warnings about
the use and disposal of oil products.)
Used oil can be a real threat to the environment.
If you change your own
oil, be sure to drain all free-flowing oil from the filter before disposal.
Don’t ever dispose of oil by putting.it
in the trash, pouring it on the
ground, into sewers, or into streams or bodies
of water. Instead, recycle it
by taking it to a place that collects used oil. If you have a problem
properly disposing of your used oil, ask your dealer, a service station or a
local recycling center for help.
AIR CLEANER

See “Scheduled Maintenance Services” in the Index. Refer
to the
Maintenance Schedule
to determine when to
replace the air filter.

What to Use
Standard Differential
Use Axle Lubricant (GM Part No. 1052271) or SAE 8OW-90 GL-5 gear
lubricant.
ENGINE COOLANT
The following explains your cooling system and how to add coolant when
it is low. If you have a problem with engine overheating, see “Engine
Overheating” in the Index.
The proper coolant for your Cadillac
will:
Give freezing protection down to -34 F (-37 C).
Give boiling protection up to 262 F (128 C).
Protect against rust and corrosion.
Help keep the proper engine temperature.
I Let the warning lights work as they should.
1 What to Use
Use a mixture of one-half clean water (preferably distilled) and one-half
antifreeze that meets “GM Specification 1825-M,” which won’t damage
aluminum parts.
You can also use a recycled coolant conforming to GM
Specification 1825-M with a complete coolant flush and refill. Use GM
Engine Coolant Supplement (sealer) with any complete coolant change.
If you use this mixture, you don’t need to add anything else.

You can check the brake fluid without taking off the cap. Just look at the
windows on the brake fluid reservoir. The fluid levels should be above
“MIN.”
If they aren’t, have your brake system checked to see if there is a
leak.
After work is done
on the brake hydraulic system, make sure the levels
are above “MIN” and below the top
of each window.
What to Add
When you do need brake fluid, use only DOT-3 brake fluid -- such as
Delco Supreme
ll@ (GM Part No.1052535). Use new brake fluid from a
sealed container only, and always clean the brake fluid reservoir cap
.before removing it.
NOTICE:
DOT-5 silicone brake fluid can damage your vehicle. Don’t
use it.
Don’t let someone put in the wrong kind of fluid. For
example, just
a few drops of mineral-based oil, such as
engine oil, in your brake system can damage brake system
parts so badly that they’ll have to be replaced.
Brake fluid can damage paint, so be careful not to spill brake
fluid on your vehicle.
If you do, wash it off immediately. See
“Appearance Care” in the Index.
Brake Wear
Your Cadillac has front-wheel disc brakes and rear drum brakes.
Disc brake pads have built-in wear indicators that make a high-pitched
warning sound when the brake pads are worn and new pads are needed.
The sound may come and
go or be heard all the time your vehicle is
moving (except when you are pushing on the brake pedal firmly).

Uniform Tire Quality Grading
The following information relates to the system developed by the United
States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration which grades tires
by treadwear, traction and temperature performance. (This applies only
to vehicles sold
in the United States.)
Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one
and
a half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded
100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual
conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the
norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and differences
in road characteristics and climate.
Traction - A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest are: A, B, and C. They
represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under
controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces
of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked
C may have poor traction performance.
Warning: The traction grade assigned to this tire is based
on braking
(straight-ahead) traction tests and does not include cornering (turning)
traction.
Temperature - A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire
to degenerate and reduce tire
life, and excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure. The grade
C corresponds to a level of performance
which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 109. Grades
B and A represent higher levels of
performance on
the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required
by law.
297

Warning: The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation,
or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat
These grades are molded on the sidewalls of passenger car tires.
I buildup and possible tire failure.
While the tires available as standard or optional equipment on General
Motors vehicles may vary with respect to these grades, all such tires meet
General Motors performance standards and have been approved for use
on General Motors vehicles.
All passenger type (P Metric) tires must
conform to Federal safety requirements in addition to these grades.
Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance
I
The wheels on your vehicle were aligned and balanced carefully at the
factory to give you the longest tire life and best overall performance.
In most cases, you will not need to have your wheels aligned again.
However, if you notice unusual tire wear or your vehicle pulling one way
or the other, the alignment may need to be reset. If
you notice your
vehicle vibrating when driving on a smooth road, your wheels may need
to be rebalanced.
Wheel Rephcement
Replace any wheel that is bent, cracked or badly corroded. If wheel nuts
keep coming loose, the wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel nuts should be
replaced.
If the wheel leaks air, replace it (except some aluminum wheels,
I which can sometimes be repaired). See your Cadillac dealer if any of
these conditions exist.
Your dealer will know the kind
of wheel you need.
Each new wheel should have the same load carrying capacity, diameter,
width, offset, and be mounted the same way as the one it replaces.
If you need to replace any of your wheels, wheel bolts, or wheel nuts,
replace them only with new GM original equipment parts. This way, you
will be sure to have the right wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel
nuts for your
Cadillac model.

Tire Chains
NOTICE:
Use tire chains only where legal and only when you must. Use
only
SAE Class “S” type chains that are the proper size for your
tires. Install them
on the rear tires and tighten them as tightly
as possible with the ends securely fastened. Drive slowly and
follow the chain manufacturer‘s instructions.
If you can hear
the chains contacting your vehicle, stop and retighten them. If
the contact continues, slow down until it stops. Driving too fast
with chains on
will damage your vehicle.
APPEARANCE CARE
Remember, cleaning products can be hazardous. Some are toxic. Others
can burst into flame if
you strike a match or get them on a hot part of the
vehicle. Some are dangerous
if you breathe their fumes in a closed space.
When you use anything from a container
to clean your Cadillac, be sure
to follow the manufacturer’s warnings and instructions. And always open
your doors or windows when you’re cleaning the inside.
