Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Air Bag Readiness Light
There is an air bag readiness light on the instrument panel, which shows
AIR BAG. The system checks the air bag’s electrical system for
malfunctions. The light tells
you if there is an electrical problem. The
system check includes the air
bag sensors and modules, the wiring and the
diagnostic module. For more information
on the air bag system, see “Air
Bag”
in the Index.
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. This means the system is
ready.
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.

NOTICE:
Making very sharp turns while trailering could cause the trailer
to come in contact with the vehicle. Your vehicle could be
damaged. Avoid making very sharp turns while trailering.
When you’re turning with a trailer, make wider turns than normal. DO this
so your trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs, road signs, trees, or other
objects. Avoid jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well in advance.
Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has to have a different turn signal
flasher and extra wiring. The green arrows on your instrument panel will
flash whenever you signal
a turn or lane change. Properly hooked up, the
trailer lamps
will also flash, telling other drivers you’re about to turn,
change lanes or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows on your instrument panel
will
flash for turns even if the bulbs on the trailer are burned out. Thus, you
may think drivers behind you are seeing your
signal when they are not. It’s
important to
che.ck occasionally to be sure the trailer bulbs are still
working.
Driving On Grades
Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear before you start down a long or
steep downgrade.
If you don’t shift down, you might have to use your
brakes
so much that they would get hot and no longer work well.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a
combination of Mini Fuses, Circuit Breakers and
Maxi Fuses. This greatly
reduces the chance of fires caused by electrical problems.
If you have a problem on the road and don’t have a spare fuse, you can
“borrow” one of the same value. Select a feature that you can get along
without that is
the same value you need -- like the radio or cigarette
lighter
-- and use its fuse. Be sure to use a fuse with the same amperage
rating number on it (ie.
10A, 20A, etc.) Replace it as soon as you can.
.x
There is a fuse removal
tool and some spare
mini fuses in the glove
box
door, just lift the
cover
up.

The headlamp wiring has an individual fuse which is powered by a
MAXI” fuse. An electrical overload in the headlamp wiring may cause
your headlamps
to go off and remain off. You will need to have your
Cadillac serviced immediately.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper motor is powered by a MAXI TM fuse. An electrical
overload in the motor wiring may cause your wipers
to stop working. If
this happens
you will need to have your Cadillac serviced.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect the power windows and other
power accessories. When the current load is too heavy (such
as a switch being
held on with the window completely up), the circuit breaker opens and
closes, protecting the circuit until the problem
is fixed or the load is removed.
