There are two things the system docsrl’r do:
It can’t sense heavy dust in the places where you drive. If you drive in a
dusty area, you should change your oil every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or
three months (whichever comes first) unlesi the display says to change
it eve11 somer than that.
0 It doesn’t check IIOCV much oil you have, so you‘ll still have to check for
that. To see how, see “Engine Oil“ in the Index.
Electronic Level Control
The Electronic Level Control (ELC) system autonmtically adjusts the rear
trim height in response to changes in vehicle loading. The system consists
of
an air compressor assembly, air drver, exhaust solcnoici, compressor
relay, height sensor, air adjustable shocks and air tubing. The compressor
is activated
when the ignition is on and a sufficient amount of weight is
added
to the car to cause the rear suspension to deflect more than
approximately one inch. The exhaust solenoid
is powered at all times,
allowing the system to exhaust with the ignition off when excess weight
is
removed from the vehicle.
If the system has a slight leak, the air compressor will run frequently for a
few seconds each time.
For a larger air leak the air compressor may stay on for up to seven
minutes. You should see your dealer for service, but
you can keep driving
lyour Cadillac.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Care of Your Cassette Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can cause reduced sound
quality,
ruined cassettes or a damaged mechanism. Cassette tapes should
be stored in their cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight and
extreme
heat. If they aren’t, they may not operate properly or cause
failure of the tape player.
Your tape plaver should be cleaned regularly each month
or after every
SO hours of &e. If you notice a reduction in sound quality, try a known
good cassette to see if the tape or the tape player is at fault. If this other
cassette bas no improvement
in sound quality, clean the tape player.
Cleaning may
be done with a scrubbing action, non-abrasive cleaning
cassette.’This system uses a cleaning cassette
with pads which scrub the
tape head
as the hubs of the cleaner cassette turn. It is normal for the
cartridge to eject while cleaning. Insert the cassette
at least three times to
ensure thorough cleaning. A scrubbing action cleaning cassette is
available tllrough your Cadillac dealership.
You ma!’ also choose a nan-scrubbing action. wet-type cleaner which uses
a cassetie with a fabric belt to clean the tape head.This tvpe of cleaning
cassette
will not e-iect. It may not clean as thoroughly as the scrubbing type
cleaner.
Cassette tapes are subject to wear and
the sound quality may degrade
over time. Always
make sure that the cassette tape is in good condition
before you have your tape player serviced.
Care of Your Compact Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original cases or other
protective cases and away from direct sunlight and dust. If the surface of
a
disc is soiled, dampen a clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent
solution and clean it, wiping from the center to the edge.
Be sure never to touch the signal surface when handling discs. Pick up
discs by grasping the outer edges or the edge of the hole and the outer
edge.
