Wiper Activated Headlumps
This feature activates the headlamps and parking lamps after the
windshield wipers have been in use
for approximately 23 seconds.
In order
to operate the wiper activated headlamps, the twilight sentinel

it also makes your vehicle more visible to other drivers. If the wiper
activated headlamps are

wiper activated headlamps
will immediately turn off.
The wiper activated headlamps will deactivate if you turn off the twilight
sentinel

one or two seconds.

you that you want to pass. It works even if your headlamps are off.

These messages will appear if there is a problem sensed in one of your
vehicle’s systems. Vehicles
that are first sold in Canada will have a number
after each message.
This number hclps to identify the message which is
only displayed in English.
APPLY BRAKE TO SHIFT - 46
This message will appear if your vehicle is in PARK (P) for about
15 seconds and
the brake is not pressed in. If you do not want this
message
to appear, you can cancel it by holding the OFF and the blue
(cooler) button on
the Electronic Climate Control panel for about five
seconds. Hold the same
two buttons again to have this message displayed
again.
A/C OVERHEATED - A/C COMPRESSOR OFF - 15
If the refrigerant system ever rcaches an over-pressure condition, this
message
will appear to tell you that the air conditioning compressor has
been turned off. Air conditioned air
will not be delivered to cool your
vehicle.
If the pressure returns to a normal operating range, you must
select AUTO,
DEFOG or DEFROST to start the compressor. If this
message continues to appear, have the system repaired
as soon as possible
to avoid compressor damage.
BATTERY NO CHARGE - 07
This message will appear if your battery is not being charged. Have your
electrical system checked
by your Cadillac dealership at your earliest
convenience.
BATTERY VOLTS HIGH - OS
This message shows that the electrical charging system is overcharging
(more than
16 volts). To avoid being stranded have the electrical system
checked by your Cadillac dealership.
You can reduce the charging
overload by using the accessories.
Turn on the lamps and radio, set the
climate control
on AUTO and the fan speed on HI, and turn the rear
window defogger on.
You can monitor battery voltage on the Driver
information Center by toggling the INFORMATION button. The normal

Temperature
To select the
temperature you want,
press the blue button
for a cooler setting or
the red button for a
warmer setting.
The
temperature setting
will be displayed on the
digital screen.
Temperatures from
65 ' F (18' C) to 85 " F (29 ' C) may be selected for
automatic temperature control.
You may choose 60" F (16' C) for
maximum cooling, and
90' F (33" C) for maximum heating. We
recommend when first getting familiar with your vehicle, select
75 ' F
(24' C). You may find that your own personal comfort requires a slightly
higher or lower setting. Once you set the temperature, the system will
automatically maintain the set temperature.
ECON
Evert though the ECON setting is automatic, the air conditioning
compressor does not operate and it won't remove humidity from the air.
The system will, however, attempt to
keep the air at the selected
temperature.
Use this setting in cold or cool weather to save fuel.
Use the AUTO setting when it's warm outside and you need to cool the air.
AUTO
With this setting, the air conditioning compressor cycles when needed to
cool the air and it's all automatic. In cold weather when the system senses
the need for heat, the airflow will be directed out the floor ducts.
As the
interior tempcrature approaches the desired setting, the blower speed
will
decrease and the airflow could be directed through the defroster and floor
ducts.
To maintain interior comfort, the airflow may move to the
instrument panel air outlets and floor ducts (Bi-Level). On bright sunny
days in cold weather, the airflow may come out
of the A/C outlets
(Bi-Level mode) to maintain comfort and prevent stuffiness.
