Front De-Ice
Here’s how to use your heated windshield in cold weather to remove ice
or frost quickly:
1. If any snow is piled up on the windshield, brush it away.
2. Start your Cadillac and leave it in PARK (P).
3. Press the DE-ICE
switch. A light will
come on to tell
you it is working.
DE-ICE
4. Try not to use
other electrical
equipment while
the system
is
working.
The system will
go off after a four-minute heating cycle. If you shift out of
PARK (P), the system will only cycle for two minutes. If you want it to
cycle again, press the switch. It will go on for two-minute cycles after that.
If it has cleared your windshield before the
cycle is over, you can turn it
off by just pressing the switch again.
Use the defroster or defog features of the Electronic Climate Control to
clear fog from the windshield as previously described. In warm weather
the heated windshield system helps keep the vehicle’s interior cool by
blocking much
of the sun’s heat producing radiation. The system’s solar
control properties also
help reduce interior fading.
There
is a metal film in the windshield which will block out some radio or
microwave signals. Therefore, the heated windshield
will reduce the
useful range
of devices such as garage door opcners and radar detectors.
(In certain states radar detectors are legal.)

If the fluid level is low, add only enough of the proper fluid to bring the
level
into the cross-hatched area on the dipstick.
1. Pull out the dipstick.
2. Using a long-neck funnel, add enough fluid at the dipstick hole to
bring it to the proper level. It doesn’t take much fluid, generally less
than a pint (OSL). Don’t overfill. We recommend you use only fluid
labeled DEXRON@-111, because fluid with that label is made
especially
for your automatic transaxle. Damage caused by fluid other
than DEXRON@-111
is not covered by your new vehicle warranty.
0 After adding fluid, recheck the fluid lcvel as described under “How to
Check.”
0 When the correct fluid level is obtained, push the dipstick back in all
the way.
How to Reset Transaxle Fluid Change Indicator:
Your vehicle is equipped with a transaxle fluid change indicator. A
CHANGE TRANS FLUID message will display on the Information
Center when the powertrain computer determines that the transaxle fluid
needs to be changed or at each
100,000 miles (160 000 krn) interval,
whichever occurs first. When
this message appears, change the transaxle
fluid and reset the transaxle fluid life indicator
as follows:
1. Turn the key ON with the engine stopped.
2. Press and hold the OFF and REAR DEFOG buttons on the climate
control simultaneously until
the TRANS FLUID RESET message
appears
in the Information Center (between five and 20 seconds).

c. Every new Cadillac has a Delco Freedom@ battery. You never have to add
water to one
of these. When it’s time for a new battery, we recommend a
Delco Freedom@ battery. Get
one that has the replacement number
shown on the original battery’s label.
Whicle Storage
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days or more, take off the
black, negative
(-) cable from the battery. This will help keep your battery
from running down.
Contact your dealer to learn how to prepare your vehicle
for longer
storage periods.
Battery Power Loss
If you lose battery power or the battery is disconnected, your car’s
computer must be programmed. It takes just over
20 minutes to do it. If
you want to do it yourself, here’s how:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Make sure the front wheels are straight.
3. Turn off the Electronic Climate Control.
4. Start the engine in PARK (P) and let it idle for 15 minutes.
5. Put your foot on the brake pedal, shift the transaxle to OVERDRIVE
(@) and let it idle for three minutes or more. Do not accelerate the
engine.

EQUOGEN BULBS
EXTERIOR LAMP HOUSINGS
Your Cadillac's lamp housings are designed with small vents so moisture
will be removed when the lights are on or after driving for a short time. If
an excessive amount of moisture is present which does not clear, see your
Cadillac dealer for service.
HEmWP BULB REMOVXL,
The following procedure tells you how to remove the halogen headlamp
bulb. Follow either the
EXPORT or DOMESTIC illustration that best
describes your vehicle.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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.
