2007 CADILLAC DTS PROFESSIONAL air conditioning

Analog Clock
The analog clock is located on the instrument
panel above the radio. The clock is not connected
with any other vehicle system and runs by
itself. To adjust the clock, do the following:
1. Locate the adjustment button directly below
the clock face.
2. Push and hold the adjustment button to
advance the clock hands. Holding the
button down will cause the clock to advance
faster. Release the buttonbeforeyou get
to the desired time.
3. Push and release the button to increase the
time by one minute increments until the
desired time is reached.
Climate Controls
Dual Climate Control System
With this system you can control the heating,
cooling, and ventilation for the vehicle.
To avoid window fogging on rainy and humid
days at temperatures above freezing, run the
air conditioning compressor. Also, it is best
to avoid the use of recirculation mode except
when maximum air conditioning performance
is needed for a short amount of time to avoid
exterior odors and fogging.
Dual Climate Control System
210

After the vehicle is started, the display will
show the interior temperature settings and the
outside temperature.
If the AUTO position is selected on the fan or mode
control, the system will automatically control the air
conditioning compressor. The A/C compressor will
run automatically even at cool outside temperatures
in order to dehumidify the air. The A/C indicator
light will be lit when the system is operating
automatically, even at near freezing outside
temperatures. Press the A/C button on the fan
control to turn off the A/C. For improved window
clearing performance in defog or defrost modes,
the A/C compressor will run automatically.
h(AUTO RECIRCULATION):If the AUTO
position is selected on either the fan or mode
control, the system will automatically control the air
inlet to supply fresh outside air or recirculate the
interior air to cool the car faster. The indicator light
on the recirculation button will light whenever the
system switches to recirculation. You may force
outside air by pressing the recirculation button
when the light is lit. For vehicles without rear climate
controls, press the outside air button to force
outside air. The next time AUTO fan or mode is
selected, the air inlet will reset back to AUTO
operation.
Manual Operation
9(Fan):Turn the left control either to the left or
right to adjust the fan speed. Turning this control
completely counterclockwise will turn on the
automatic fan operation. Turning this control to the
“O” position will turn the climate control system off.
If the airow seems low when the fan speed is at
the highest setting, the passenger compartment air
lter may need to be replaced. SeePassenger
Compartment Air Filter on page 220.
9(Off):Turn the left control to this position to
turn the entire climate control system off.
To change the current mode, select one of the
following positions using the right control:
AUTO:Turn the control to this position to turn on
the automatic delivery mode operation.
F(Vent):Turn the control to this mode to direct
air to the instrument panel outlets.
*(Bi-Level):Turn the control to this mode to
direct approximately half of the air to the instrument
panel outlets and most of the remaining air to the
oor outlets. In automatic operation, cooler air is
directed to the upper outlets and warmer air to the
oor outlets.
212

AUX:If your vehicle has a rear climate control
system, press this button to turn the rear climate
control fan on for automatic operation. After
the AUX button is pressed, the indicator light
will come on. Press the button again to turn the
auxiliary fan off. SeeRear Climate Control System
on page 218.
#(Air Conditioning):Press the center of the
left control to override the automatic system
and turn the air conditioning system on or off.
When in AUTO, the air conditioning compressor
will come on automatically, as necessary.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from
the air, so you may notice a small amount of water
dripping underneath your vehicle while idling or
after turning off the engine. This is normal.
Sensors
The solar sensor, located in the defrost grille,
middle of the instrument panel, monitors the solar
radiation. Do not cover the solar sensor or the
system will not work properly.
214

Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high
humidity (moisture) condensing on the cool window
glass. This can be minimized if the climate control
system is used properly. There are two modes to
clear fog from your windshield. Use the oor/defog
mode to clear the windows of fog or moisture and
warm the passengers. Use the defrost mode to
remove fog or frost from the windshield more
quickly.
W(Floor/Defog):Turn the control to this mode
to direct approximately half of the air to the
oor outlets and the remaining air is directed to
the side window outlets and to the windshield.
When you select this mode, the system turns
off recirculation and runs the air conditioning
compressor unless the outside temperature is
at or below freezing. The recirculation mode
cannot be selected while in the oor/defog mode.
0(Defrost):Turn the control to this mode to
direct most of the air to the windshield and the
side window outlets. In this mode, the system will
automatically turn off recirculation and run the
air conditioning compressor, unless the outside
temperature is at or below freezing. Recirculation
cannot be selected while in the defrost mode.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows
are clear.
For professional vehicles, air will be allowed to
ow through the rear outlets. For quicker defrost,
press the AUX button on the front climate
control system so that the light is not lit.

CRUISE SET TO XXX MPH (km/h)
This message displays whenever the cruise control
is set. SeeCruise Control on page 176and
Adaptive Cruise Control on page 179for more
information.
If your vehicle has Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC),
after a few seconds, this message clears and
the message “SET SPD XX” displays at the bottom
of the DIC. See “SET SPD (Speed)” later in this
section.
DRIVER DOOR OPEN
This symbol appears
with this message.
This message displays when the driver’s door
is not closed completely. Make sure that the
driver’s door is closed completely.
ENGINE HOT – A/C
(Air Conditioning) OFF
This message displays when the engine coolant
becomes hotter than the normal operating
temperature. SeeEngine Coolant Temperature
Gage on page 233. To avoid added strain on
a hot engine, the air conditioning compressor
automatically turns off. When the coolant
temperature returns to normal, the air conditioning
compressor turns back on. You can continue to
drive your vehicle.
If this message continues to appear, have the
system repaired by your dealer as soon as
possible to avoid damage to the engine.
248

SERVICE A/C SYSTEM
This message displays when the air delivery mode
door or the electronic sensors that control the air
conditioning and heating systems are no longer
working. Have the climate control system serviced
by your dealer if you notice a drop in heating and air
conditioning efficiency.
SERVICE BATTERY CHARGING
SYSTEM

This message displays if there is a problem with the
brake system. The brake system warning light and
the anti-lock brake system warning light may also
be displayed on the instrument panel cluster.
SeeBrake System Warning Light on page 229andAnti-Lock Brake System Warning Light on page 230
for more information. If this happens, stop as soon
as possible and turn off the vehicle. Restart the
vehicle and check for the message on the DIC
display. If the message is displayed or appears
again when you begin driving, the brake system
needs service. See your dealer as soon as
possible. SeeBrakes on page 387for more
information.
