This feature is designed to protect your vehicle's battery
against drainage from the interior lamps, trunk lamp,
glove
box ianlp, cigarette lighters or the garage door
opener. When
the ignition is turned off, the power
to these features will automatically turn off after
10 minutes (three minutes if a new car has 15 miles
or less). Power will be restored for an additional
10 minutes if any door is opened, the trunk is opened
or the courtesy lamp switch is turned on.
This feature is for long term use and must be
programmed through the
DIC while the ignition is in the
RUN position. Battery guard storage protects the battery
by placing the vehicle in
a storage mode so that the
radio, amplifiers, instrument cluster and RKE will
not
drain the battery over a long period of time.
'To begin programming, press the INFORMATION
(.INFO) and RESET (INFO RESET) buttons at the same
time for about two seconds.

press the RESET (INFO RESET) button to indicate a
"no" response.

and

Since this is the last personalization feature available,
a yes or no response will end out of the DIC display.
Once the battery guard has been programmed. your
vehicle will enter the storage mode about
20 minutes
after the ignition key has been turned
off. The RKE will
also be disabled at this point. The RICE will reactivate
when
a door or the trunk is opened. however. if your
vehicle is
left inactive for another 30 minutes, the RKE
will re-enter the storage mode.
Your vehicle will
stay in the storage mode until the
ignition key
is turned out of LOCK. The system will
"wake-up" when the door key is inserted
into the door,
however, your vehicle
will remain in the storage mode.
The ignition must be out of LOCK before the battery
E Ouard is disabled.

The speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour
(kndh). 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 anti-lock brake system, the light(s) will come
on when you start your engine and may stay
on for
several seconds. That’s normal.

light comes
on when you’re driving, stop as soon as
possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the engine
again
to reset the system. If the light still stays on, or
comes on again while you’re driving, your Cadillac
needs service.
If the regular brake system warning light
isn’t on, you still have brakes, but
you don’t have
anti-lock brakes.
If the regular brake system warning
light is also

Press the AVG button to display the average
mile-per-gallon (AVG MPG). You can also display it in
metric units by pressing the
ENGMET button.
When AVG MPG
is selected, the total distance is
divided by the total fuel used.
When the INST button (Instantaneous Fuel Economy) is
selected. you will see what the fuel economy is at that
instant. The computer takes
a new reading twice every
second.
It will show economy up to 70 miles-per-gallon
(or 2 L per- 100 ltm).
To reset the average fuel economy, press the
INFORMATION button until the AVG MPG is
displayed on the DIC. Press and hold the
RESET button
until both the fuel data center and DIC display reads
0.0.
The RANGE display shows how far the computer thinks
you can travel with the fuel that is in the tank. The
computer does
not know what driving conditions will be
like for the rest of your trip,
so the range is estimated
based on
the recent fuel economy. Therefore, the range
reading may change
as your driving habits change.
Going from city
to highway driving may increase the
range reading.
If the range display shows
LO, you should stop for fuel
as soon
as possible. Your computer needs enough data
for the RANGE reading to work. The
DIC display gives you the
status of many of your
vehicle’s systems. The DIC is also used to display driver
personalization features and warninghtatus messages.
Your vehicle may be equipped with the following
features that can be individually customized for up
to two drivers.
