HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Many people read their owner’s manual from beginning to end when they
first receive their new vehicle. This will help
you learn about the features
and controls for your vehicle. In this manual, you’ll find that pictures and
words work together to explain things quickly.
INDEX A good place to look for what you need is the Index in back of
the manual. It’s an alphabetical list of all that’s in the manual, and the
page number where you’ll find it.
SAFETY WMZNGSAND SWBOLS
You will find a number of safety cautions in this book. We use gray and
the word CAUTION to tell you about things that could hurt you if you
were to ignore the warning.
In the gray caution area,
we tell you what the hazard is. Then we tell you
what to do to help avoid or reduce the hazard. Please read these cautions.
If you don’t, you or others could be hurt.
You will also find a circle with a slash through it in this book. This safety
symbol means “Don’t,” “Don’t do this,’’ or “Don’t let this happen.”

Ehicle Damage Warnings
Also, in this book you will find these notices:
31
NOTICE: I
These mean there is something that could damage your vehicle. $3
In the notice area, we tell you about something that can damage your
vehicle. Many times, this damage would not be covered by your warranty,
and it could be costly. But the notice will tell you what to do to help avoid
the damage.
When you read other manuals, you might see CAUTION and NOTICE
warnings in different colors or in different words. In this manual, we’ve
used the familiar words and colors that Cadillac has used for years.
You’ll also see warning labels on your vehicle. They use the same colors,
and the words CAUTION or NOTICE.
