1997 CADILLAC DEVILLE ignition

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To find your comfort zone, start with the 75°F (24°C)
setting and 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.
With the automatic 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 aifflow 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 air conditioning outlets (AC mode) to
maintain cornfort and prevent stuffiness. If
your vehicle is sitting out on a hot day and you have it
set on AUTO, the air will first flow out the floor air
outlets for a few seconds. That is normal. This is to
expel hot air from the air outlets. As the air is cooled,
the airflow will move through the air conditioning
outlets. If you start your vehicle with the fan setting on
HI, it will skip the air conditioning purge.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system
will delay turning on the fan until warm air is available.
The length of delay depends on the outside air
temperature, engine coolant temperature or the time
since the engine was last started.
As the coolant warms
up, the blower fan speed will gradually increase and air
will flow from the heater outlets, with some airflow to
the windshield to prevent fogging under most
normal conditions.
If you leave your vehicle, the system will remember the
control setting the next time you start your engine,
except for recirculation and defrost. Each ignition cycle
cancels recirculation, whereas,
DEFROST will change
to automatic operation when the ignition
is shut off and
then turned back on.

Climate Control Personalization
(If Equipped)
With this feature, your vehicle will recall the latest
climate control settings as adjusted the last time your
vehicle was operated. This feature allows two different
drivers to store and recall their own climate control settings. The settings recalled by the climate control
system are determined by which RKE transmitter
(“l”
or “2”) was used to enter the vehicle. The number on the
back of the RKE transmitter corresponds to driver
1 or
to driver
2. After the unlock button is pressed on the
RISE transmitter or the ignition key is placed in the
ignition (the ignition must be turned to LOCK), the climate control settings will automatically adjust to
where they were last set. The settings can also be
changed by briefly pressing the memory seat buttons
1
or 2 located on the driver’s door.
Audio Systems
Your Cadillac audio system has been designed to operate
easily and give years of listening pleasure. You will get
the most enjoyment out of it if you acquaint yourself
with it first. Find out what your audio system can do
and how to operate all its controls, to be sure you’re
getting the most out of the advanced engineering that
went into it.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Some cleaning cassettes or CD adapter kits may appear
as a broken tape. If the cleaning cassette is ejected
immediately from the tape player, follow these steps for
the TAPE CLEAN OVERRIDE feature:
1. Turn the ignition to RUN or ACC.
2. Turn the radio off.
3. Press and hold the SOURCE button for three
seconds. After three seconds, the tape icon will flash
indicating the cut tape feature is now turned
off.
4.
Turn the radio on and insert the cleaning cassette (or
the CD adapter
kit).
5. Eject the tape after the tape player has been cleaned.
When the cleaning cassette has been ejected, the broken
tape detection feature is active again.
You may also choose a non-scrubbing action, wet-type
cleaner which uses a cassette with a fabric belt to clean
the tape head.
This type of cleaning cassette will not
eject and, it may not clean as thoroughly as the
scrubbing type cleaner.
Cassettes
are subject to wear and the sound quality
may degrade over time. Always make sure the cassette
tape is
in good condition before you have your tape
player serviced.
Care of Your Compact Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original cases
or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight
and dust. If the surface of a disc
is soiled, dampen a
clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution and
clean it, wiping from the center to the edge.
Be sure never to touch the signal surface when handling
discs. Pick up discs by grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.
Power Antenna Mast Care
Your power antenna will look its best and work well
if it’s cleaned from time to time. To clean the
antenna mast:
1. Turn on the ignition and radio to raise the antenna.
2. Dampen a clean cloth with mineral spirits or
equivalent solvent.
3. Wipe the cloth over the mast sections, removing any dirt.
