There is an air bag readiness light on the instrument panel, which has
“INFL REST.” or “INFLATABLE RESTRAINT” on it. The system
checks for electrical malfunctions, and the light tells you
if there is a
problem.
INFLATABLE
RESTRAINT
You will see this light
flash for a
few
seconds when you
turn your ignition to
“Run” or “Start.”
Then the light should
go out, which means
the system is ready.
Remember,
if the air bag readiness light doesn’t come on when you start
your vehicle, or stays on,
or comes on when you are driving, your air bag
system may not work properly. Have your vehicle serviced right away.

You’ll find the button
here in the glove
box.
CONVENIENCE NET
You’ll find the convenience net just inside the back wall of the trunk.
Put small loads, like grocery bags, behind the net. It can help keep them
from falling over during sharp turns
or quick starts and stops.
The net is not
for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the trunk as far
forward as your can. You can unhook the net
so that it will lie flat when
you are not using it.

The test used to determine me city fuel economy estimate simulates a
7.5 mile
(12 km), stop and go trip with an average speed of 20 mph
(32 km/h). The trip takes 23 minutes and has 18 stops. About one fifth
of the time is spent idling, as in waiting at traffic lights or in rush hour
traffic. Two kinds
of engine starts are used: a cold start, which is similar to
starting a car in the morning after it has been parked all night and a hot
start, which is similar to restarting
a vehicle after it has been warmed up,
driven and stopped for a short time.
The test used to determine the highway fuel economy estimate represents
a mixture
of “non-city” driving. Segments corresponding to different
kinds of rural roads and interstate highways are included. The test
simulates a
10 mile (17 km) trip with an average speed of 48 mph
(77
km/h). The test is run from a hot start and has little idling time and
no stops.
To assure that the fuel economy numbers are most useful for consumers,
the EPA adjusts these laboratory test results to account for the difference
between controlled laboratory conditions and actual driving on the road.
The laboratory fuel economy results are adjusted downward to arrive at
the estimates on the fuel economy window sticker and the Gas Mileage
Guide. The
city estimate is lowered by 10 percent and the highway
estimate is lowered by
22 percent from the laboratory test results.
Experience has proven that these adjustments make the mileage
estimates correspond more closely to the actual fuel economy realized by
the average driver.
Even though these figures are adjusted, they still represent what the
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.
0 Anticipate traffic stops.
