sound.

If you move around in the vehicle enough, pull out the shoulder belt,
or
open your door, the belt will become tight again. If this happens, you can
reset it.

To avoid damage, be sure to clean ice and snow from the wiper
blades before
using them. If they're frozen to the windshield, carefully
loosen or thaw them.
If your blades do become damaged, get new blades

PUSH. Once you feel
you have enough
washer fluid on the
windshield, release the

go off the road.
Check your washer fluid level often.
A CAUTION:
In freezing weather, don't use your washer until the windshield
is warmed. Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.

By using this button
you can tell how far
you’ve gone since you
last set
the TRIP SET
back to zero. To reset,
press and hold
the
button until zeros
appear.
If your vehicle
is domestic, the trip odometer will return to zero after
999.9 miles (1 609 km). If your vehicle is Canadian, the trip odometer will
return
to zero after 1 999.9 km (1 242 miles).
WMING LIGHTS
This part describes the warning lights that are on your vehicle. The
pictures will help you locate them.
Warning lights can signal that something
is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying
attention
to your warning lights could also save you or others from injury.
Warning lights come on when
there may be or is a problem with one of
your vehicle’s functions. As you will see in the details on the next few
pages, some warning lights come on briefly when you start the engine just
to let you know they’re working. If you are familiar with this section, you
should not
be alarmed when this happens.

ANTI-
LOCK (@)
With the anti-lock brake system, this light will come on when you start
your engine and may stay
on for several seconds. That’s normal. If the
light doesn’t come on, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there
is a problem.
If the light stays on, turn the ignition off. Or, if the light comes on when
you’re driving, stop as soon as possible and turn the ignition
off. Then
start the engine again
to reset the system. If the light still stays on, or
comes on again while you’re driving, your Cadillac needs service. If the
regular brake system warning light isn’t
on, you still have brakes, but you
don’t have anti-lock brakes. If the regular brake system warning light is
also on,
you don’t have anti-lock brakes and there’s a problem with your
regular brakes. See “Brake System Warning Light” earlier
in this part.
Traction Disabled Message
If this message is displayed, there’s a problem with your traction control
system and your vehicle needs service. When this message
is displayed,
the system
will not limit wheel spin. Adjust your driving accordingly.
Traction Control System Active Message
When your traction control system is limiting wheel spin, the TRACTION
ACTIVE message will be displayed. Slippery road conditions may exist if
this message is displayed, so adjust your driving accordingly. This message
will stay
on for a few seconds after the traction control system stops
limiting wheel spin.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine When the INST button (Instantaneous Fuel Economy) is selected, you
will see what your fuel economy is at that instant. The computer takes a
new reading twice every second. It will show economy up to
70 miles per
gallon (or
2 liters per 100 kilometers).
To reset the average fuel economy, press the INFORMATION button
until the AVG MPG
is displayed on the Driver Information Center
(DIC). Press and hold the RESET button until both the Fuel Data Center
and DIC display reads
0.0. Another method to reset the average fuel
economy
is to press the AVG button to display the average miles per
gallon. Then press the
RESET button followed by the AVG button to
reset this calculation.
The RANGE display shows how far the computer thinks you can travel
with the
fuel that is in your tank. The computer does not know what
driving conditions will be like for the rest
of your trip, so the range is
estimated based on your recent fuel economy. Therefore, your range
reading may change as your driving habits change. (Going from city to
highway driving may increase the range reading.)
If the range display shows
LO, you should stop for fuel as soon as
possible.
Your computer needs enough data for the
RANGE reading to work,
however,
so it will read LO when your vehicle is brand new (under
25 miles). It may also show LO if your battery has been disconnected.
Driver Information Center
Your Driver Information Center (DIC) display gives you the status of
many of your vehicle’s systems.
The DIC is used to display driver selectable information and
warnindstatus messages.
If more than one problem is detected, the Driver Information Center
will
automatically display all current messages.
