1997 CADILLAC DEVILLE odometer

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Speedon: I : - r a--
The speeaometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour
(km/h). The
odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven,
in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers
(used in Canada).
You may wonder what happens if a vehicle has to have a
new odometer installed. The new one may read the
correct mileage. This is because your vehicle’s computer
has stored the mileage
in memory.

With the digital cluster,
you can go back
and forth
from English (miles) to
metric (kilometers) by
pressing this button (digital cluster button shown, analog cluster
button similar).
Note that other readings such as temperature, fuel and
trip odometer also go back and forth between English

Vehicle Speed Limiter
This feature prevents your vehicle from exceeding
speeds that the tires are not rated for. When this
happens, the engine’s fuel supply is shut
off. When the
vehicle speed slows, the fuel supply will come on again. This gage
indicates the
engine speed in revolutions
per minute
(rpm).
1 NOTICE:
Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the red area or engine damage may occur.
Engine Speed Limiter
This feature prevents the engine from operating at too many
revolutions per minute
(rpm). When the engine’s rpm are
critically high, the
fuel supply to the engine is shut off. When
the engine speed slows, the fuel supply will come on again.
This helps prevent damage to the engine.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If you need to replace any of your wheels, wheel bolts
or wheel nuts, replace them only with new
GM original
equipment
parts. This way, you will be sure to have the
right wheel, wheel bolts and wheel nuts for your
Cadillac model.
---
~ Using the wrong replacement wheels, wneel bolts
or wheel nuts on your vehicle can be dangerous.
It could affect the braking and handling of your
vehicle, make your tires lose air and make you
lose control. You could have a collision in which
you or others could be injured. Always use the
correct wheel, wheel bolts and wheel nuts for
replacement.
I NOTICE:
The wrong wheel can also cause problems with
bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer or
odometer calibration, headlamp aim, bumper
height, vehicle ground clearance and tire or
tire chain clearance to the body and chassis.
See “Changing a Flat Tire” in the Index for more
information.
Putting a used wheel on your vehicle is
dangerous. You can’t know how it’s been used or
how far it’s been driven. It could fail suddenly
and cause an accident.
If you have to replace a
wheel, use a new
GM original equipment wheel.
