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 Number (VIN).

FUEL ECOlVOhfY
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 economy
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.
c
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.
There are
two different fuel economy estimates for each vehicle, one for
city driving and one for highway driving.
To develop these two estimates,
separate tests are used to represent typical everyday city and rural driving.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 fuel tank and emissions system might be damaged.

NOTICE:

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
Bad wear
Bad handling
Bad fuel economy.
If your tires have
too much air (overinflation), you can get:
Unusual wear
Bad handling
Rough ride
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
SLS tire pressures are:
Front - 28 psi (190 kPa)
Rear - 26 psi (180 Pa)
SLS recommended tire size is:
Michelin XW4 Blackwall (P225/60R16)
