Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine -.- Leaving Your Vehicle With the Engine Running
If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, be sure your
vehicle
is in PARK (P) and your parking brake is firmly set before you
leave it. After you’ve moved the shift lever into the PARK (P) position,
hold the regular brake pedal down. Then, see
if you can move the shift
lever away from
PARK (P) without first pulling it toward you (or, if you
have the console shift lever, without first pushing the button). If you can,
it means that the shift lever wasn’t fully locked into
PARK (P).
Torque Lock
If you are parking on a hill and you don’t shift your transaxle into
PARK (P) properly, the weight of the vehicle may put too much force
on the parking pawl in the transaxle.
You may find it difficult to pull the
shift lever out
of PARK (P). This is called “torque lock.” To prevent
torque lock, set the parking brake and then shift into
PARK (P) properly
before you leave the driver’s seat.
To find out how, see “Shifting Into
PARK (P)” in the Index.
If “torque lock” does occur,
you may need to have another vehicle push
yours a little uphill
to take some of the pressure from the transaxle, so you
can pull the shift lever out of PARK (P).

- -c
- --
c-
Check your tires once a month or more.
Don’t forget your compact spare. It should be at
60 psi (420 kPa).
How to Check
Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire pressure. Simply looking
at the tires will not tell you the pressure, especially if you have radial
tires
-- which may look properly inflated even if they’re underinflated.
If your tires have valve caps, be sure to put them back on. They help
prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture.
Tire Inspection and Rotation
Tires should be inspected every 6,000 to 8,000 miles (10 030 to 13 000 km)
for any signs
of unusual wear. If unusual wear is present, rotate your tires
as
soon as possible and check wheel alignment. Also check for damaged
tires or wheels. See “When it’s Time for New Tires” and “Wheel
Replacement’’ later in this section
for more information.
The purpose of regular rotation is to achieve more uniform wear for all tires
on the vehicle. The first rotation is the most important. See “Scheduled
Maintenance Services” in the Index for scheduled rotation intervals.
When rotating your
tires, always use the
correct rotation pattern
shown here.
Don’t include the compact spare tire in your tire rotation.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and rear inflation
pressures as shown
on the Tire-Loading Information label. Make certain that
all wheel nuts are properly tightened. See “Wheel
Nut Torque” in the Index.

AIR CONDITIONING REFHGERANTS
Not all air conditioning refrigerants are the same. If the air conditioning
system in your vehicle needs refrigerant, be sure the proper refrigerant is
used.
If you’re not sure, ask your Cadillac dealer. For additional
information, see your “Warranty and Owner Assistance Information”
booklet.
