level sensing system does not check for actual oil level
if the engine has been off for
a short period of time, and
the oil level is never sensed while the engine is running.
If the CHECK OIL LEVEL message appears, and your
vehicle has been parked on level ground with the engine
off
for at least 30 minutes, the oil level should be
checked by observing the
oil dipstick. Prior to checking
the oil level be sure the engine has been off for five
minutes and your vehicle
is on a level surface. Then
check the dipstick and add oil if necessary. See “Engine
Oil” in the Index.

Section 3 Comfort Controls and Audio Systems
In this section you'll find out how to operate the comfort
control and audio systems offered with your Cadillac.
Be sure to read about the particular systems supplied
with your vehicle.
Comfort Controls
This section tells you how to make your air system work
for you. Your comfort control system uses
ozone-friendly
R- 134a refrigerant.
With these systems, you can control the heating, cooling
and ventilation in your Cadillac. Your vehicle also has
the flow-through ventilation system described later
in
this section.
Electronic Climate Control (ECC)

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Fan Button
The button with the fan symbol adjusts the fan speed.
Press the up arrow to increase fan speed and the down
arrow to decrease fan speed.
Temperature Button
The red and blue temperature buttons adjust the air
temperature coming through the system. Press the blue
button for
a cooler setting or the red button for a warmer
setting. The outside temperature
is always displayed
when your vehicle
is running. You can change it from
Fahrenheit
to Celsius by pressing the ENG/MET
(English/metric) button on the
DIC.
Mode Controls
The AUTO/ECON button automatically controls the
direction of air delivery for air conditioning and non-air
conditioning modes.
Automatic Operation
When the system is set for AUTO, sensors will control
the air delivery mode. Air will come from the
floor,
middle or windshield outlets. The fan speed will vary as
the system maintains the selected temperature setting. Be
careful not
to put anything over the solar sensor
located in the middle of the instrument panel near the
windshield. This sensor is used by the automatic system
to regulate temperature.
To find your comfort zone, start with
75°F (24°C)
setting, allow about 20 minutes for the system to
regulate. Press the red or blue temperature buttons to
adjust the temperature if necessary. If you choose 60°F
(1 6"C), the system will remain at that maximum cooling
setting and will not regulate fan speed.
If you choose the
temperature
of 90°F (32 "C), the system will remain at
that maximum heating setting and will not regulate fan
speed. Choosing either maximum setting will not cause
the system
to heat or cool any faster.
With this setting, the air conditioning compressor
automatically cycles when needed to
cool the air. In
cold weather, when the system senses the need for
heat, the airflow will be directed
out the floor outlets.
As the interior temperature approaches a desired setting,
the blower speed will decrease.
To maintain interior
comfort, the airflow may move
to the instrument panel
air outlets and floor outlets
(BI-LEVEL mode). On
bright, sunny days in cold weather, the airflow may
come
out of the A/C outlets (A/C mode) to maintain
comfort and prevent stuffiness.

The TEMP knob adjusts the air temperature coming
through the system. Turn the
TEMP knob clockwise to
increase the temperature and counterclockwise to
decrease
the temperature. The outside temperature is
always displayed when your vehicle is running.
Automatic Operation
Mode Button
Press this button to deliver air through the floor, middle
or windshield outlets. The system will stay in the
selected mode until
the MODE button is pushed again.
Press the
up or down arrow to cycle through the
available modes.
When the system is set for AUTO, sensors will control
the air delivery mode. Air will come
from the floor,
middle or windshield outlets. The fan speed will vary as
the system maintains the selected temperature setting.
Be careful not to put anything over the solar sensor
located in the middle
of the instrument panel near the
windshield. This sensor
is used by the automatic system
to regulate temperature.
To find your comfort zone, start with 75°F (24°C)
setting, allow about 20 minutes for the system to
regulate. Press the red
or blue temperature buttons to
adjust the temperature
if necessary. If you choose 60°F
(16"C), the system will remain at that maximum cooling
setting and will not regulate
fan speed. If you choose the
temperature of
90°F (32"C), the system will remain at
that maximum heating setting
and will not regulate fan
speed. Choosing either maximum setting
will not cause
the system to heat or cool any faster.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine AC: Press this button to turn the air conditioning on and
off.
The system will cool and dehumidify the air inside
the vehicle. In the AUTO mode, the display will show
that AC is active, but the air conditioning compressor
only operates when the system determines it is needed.
RECIRCULATION: Press this button to limit the
amount of fresh air entering your vehicle. This is helpful
when you
are trying to cool the air quickly or limit odors
entering your vehicle. In the AUTO mode, the system
will use recirculation as necessary to cool the
air.
Pressing the recirculation button will change the
operation to a manual mode and the air will recirculate
non-stop. Press this button again to turn off the
recirculation feature.
If you notice the windows fogging, press
the
recirculation button to exit the recirculation mode.
DUAL TEMPERATURE CONTROL: With this
feature, the right front passenger can control the
temperature of heated air for hisher own zone. The
passenger can select a four degree warmer or cooler
temperature from the driver’s setting.
To turn the system
on, press the PASS/TEMP button. Press the up arrow to
increase
the temperature and press the down arrow to
decrease the climate setting. Pressing the
OFF button
will turn off the dual-zone function.
Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed
for the
air conditioner to work its best.
With the
ECC system, press the AUTO/ECON button to
assist in cooling air and
in maintaining proper airflow.
Adjust the temperature to a comfortable setting by
pressing the blue button to cool your vehicle and
pressing the red button to warm your vehicle. Press the
fan button arrows up or down to adjust the fan speed.
If you have the dual-zone system, press the AC button
to turn the system on and then select
the proper MODE
to direct airflow. The system will cool and dehumidify
the air inside the vehicle. Also while in the AUTO
mode, the system will use recirculation as necessary to
cool the air. You may also need to adjust the interior
temperature. Turn the TEMP knob clockwise to increase
the temperature and counterclockwise
to decrease
temperature. Adjust the fan speed as needed.
When the air conditioner .is on, you may sometimes
notice slight changes in your vehicle’s engine speed and
power. This is normal because the system is designed to
cycle the compressor
on and off to keep the desired
temperature.
