1996 CADILLAC ELDORADO brake sensor

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine OVERDRIVE (0): This position is for normal driving.
If you need more power for passing, and you’re:
Going less than 35 mph (55 km/h), push the
accelerator pedal about halfway down.
Going about 35 mph (55 km/h) or more, push the
accelerator all the way down.
The transaxle will shift down to the next gear and
have more power.
NOTICE:
If your vehicle seems to start up rather slowly, or
if it doesn’t seem to shift gears
as you accelerate,
something may be wrong with
a transaxle system
sensor. If
you drive very far that way, your
vehicle can be damaged.
So if this happens, have
your vehicle serviced right away. Until then, you
can use SECOND
(2) when you are driving less
than
35 mph (55 km/h) and OVERDRIVE (a)
for higher speeds. THIRD
(3): This
position is also used for noma
driving however, it offers more power and lower fuel
economy than OVERDRIVE
(03).
Here are examples for using THIRD (3) instead of
OVERDRIVE (03):
0 When driving on hilly, winding roads.
When towing a trailer, so there is less shifting
When going down a steep hill. between gears.
SECOND
(2): This position gives you more power. You
can use SECOND
(2) on hills. It can help control your
speed as you go down steep mountain roads, but then
you would also want
to use your brakes off and on.
I I
I NOTICE:
Don’t shift into SECOND (2) unless you are going
slower than
65 mph (105 km/h), or you can
damage your engine.
