Similar limits exist for album
content. If there are more than
12,000 albums, but fewer than
24,000, the content cannot be
accessed directly with one
command like,“Play
Album” must first be spoken;
the system will then ask for
the album name. The reply
would be to say the name of
the album to play.
Once the number of files has
exceeded approximately
24,000, there is no support
for accessing the songs
directly through voice
commands. There will still be
access to the media content
by using commands for
playlists, artists, and genres.
The access commands for
playlists, artists, and genres
are prohibited after the
number of this type of media
exceeds 12,000.
The system will provide
feedback the first time voice
recognition is initiated if it has become apparent that any of
these limits are reached
during a device initializing
process.
Voice recognition
performance will degrade to
some extent based on many
factors when adding large
amounts of data to recognize.
If this is the case, perhaps
accessing songs through
playlists or artist name would
work better.

234 Driving and Operating
Driving
Information
Driving for Better
Fuel Economy
Driving habits can affect fuel
mileage. Here are some driving
tips to get the best fuel
economy possible:
.Set the climate controls to
the desired temperature
after the engine is started,
or turn them off when not
required.
.Avoid fast starts and
accelerate smoothly.
.Brake gradually and avoid
abrupt stops.
.Avoid idling the engine for
long periods of time.
.When road and weather
conditions are appropriate,
use cruise control.
.Always follow posted speed
limits or drive more slowly
when conditions require.
.Keep vehicle tires properly
inflated.
.Combine several trips into a
single trip.
.Replace the vehicle's tires
with the same TPC Spec
number molded into the
tire's sidewall near the size.
.Follow recommended
scheduled maintenance.
Distracted Driving
Distraction comes in many
forms and can take your focus
from the task of driving.
Exercise good judgment and
do not let other activities
divert your attention away
from the road. Many local
governments have enacted
laws regarding driver
distraction. Become familiar
with the local laws in
your area.
To avoid distracted driving,
keep your eyes on the road,
keep your hands on the
steering wheel, and focus your
attention on driving.
.Do not use a phone in
demanding driving situations.
Use a hands-free method to
place or receive necessary
phone calls.
.Watch the road. Do not read,
take notes, or look up
information on phones or
other electronic devices.
.Designate a front seat
passenger to handle
potential distractions.
.Become familiar with vehicle
features before driving, such
as programming favorite
radio stations and adjusting
climate control and seat
settings. Program all trip
information into any
navigation device prior to
driving.
.Wait until the vehicle is
parked to retrieve items that
have fallen to the floor.
.Stop or park the vehicle to
tend to children.
.Keep pets in an appropriate
carrier or restraint.
Cadillac CT4 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-16500442) -
2023 - CRC - 5/10/22
Driving and Operating 237
.Maintain a reasonable
steady speed through the
curve.
.Wait until the vehicle is out
of the curve before
accelerating gently into the
straightaway.
Steering in Emergencies
.There are some situations
when steering around a
problem may be more
effective than braking.
.Holding both sides of the
steering wheel allows you to
turn 180 degrees without
removing a hand.
.The Antilock Brake System
(ABS) allows steering while
braking.
Off-Road Recovery
The vehicle's right wheels can
drop off the edge of a road
onto the shoulder while
driving. Follow these tips:1. Ease off the accelerator and then, if there is
nothing in the way, steer
the vehicle so that it
straddles the edge of the
pavement.
2. Turn the steering wheel about one-eighth of a turn,
until the right front tire
contacts the
pavement edge. 3. Turn the steering wheel to
go straight down the
roadway.
Loss of Control
Skidding
There are three types of skids
that correspond to the
vehicle's three control
systems:
.Braking Skid —wheels are
not rolling.
.Steering or Cornering Skid —
too much speed or steering
in a curve causes tires to slip
and lose cornering force.
.Acceleration Skid —too
much throttle causes the
driving wheels to spin.
Defensive drivers avoid most
skids by taking reasonable
care suited to existing
conditions, and by not
overdriving those conditions.
But skids are always possible.

2023 - CRC - 5/10/22
238 Driving and Operating
If the vehicle starts to slide,
follow these suggestions:
.Ease your foot off the
accelerator pedal and steer
the way you want the vehicle
to go. The vehicle may
straighten out. Be ready for
a second skid if it occurs.
.Slow down and adjust your
driving according to weather
conditions. Stopping
distance can be longer and
vehicle control can be
affected when traction is
reduced by water, snow, ice,
gravel, or other material on
the road. Learn to recognize
warning clues—such as
enough water, ice, or packed
snow on the road to make a
mirrored surface —and slow
down when you have any
doubt.
.Try to avoid sudden
steering, acceleration,
or braking, including
reducing vehicle speed by
shifting to a lower gear. Any
sudden changes could cause
the tires to slide. Remember: Antilock brakes
help avoid only the
braking skid.
Track Events and
Competitive Driving
(V-Series and
V-Series Blackwing)
Before any track event, there
are three features that should
be turned off:
.Automatic Emergency
Braking (AEB). See
Automatic Emergency
Braking (AEB)
0345.
.Lane Keep Assist. See Lane
Keep Assist (LKA) 0351.
.Adaptive Cruise Control. See
Adaptive Cruise Control
(Advanced) 0304.
{Danger

drivers and should not be
used on public roads.
High-speed driving,
aggressive cornering, hard
braking, and other
high-performance driving
can be dangerous. Improper
driver inputs for the
conditions may result in loss
of control of the vehicle,
which could injure or kill you
or others. Always drive
safely.
Track events and competitive
driving may affect the vehicle
warranty. See the warranty
manual before using the
vehicle for competitive driving.

Tire Inflation Pressure
Guidelines
Tire inflation pressures affect
vehicle handling and tire life,
and should be adjusted for
various types of tracks/
courses. Inspect the tires prior to every
track/course session. Track/
course driving will reduce the
tire tread life.
To maximize tire life, drive
800 km (500 mi) prior to
racetrack driving or complete
the minimum track running
that will increase the tire
pressures by 35 kPa (5 psi).
After this, immediately let the
tires cool to cold pressures.
Tire Inflation Pressure High
Speed
See Tire Pressure for
High-Speed Operation
0423.
Tire Inflation Pressure for
Track Driving
For driving on a race course,
if your vehicle is equipped with
255/35ZR18 (94Y) and
275/35ZR18 (99Y) tires, set
cold (stationary) tire pressures
to 30 psi. During track
sessions, set the pressures at
35 to 38 psi for hot tire
pressures. If pressures exceed
38 psi, bleed pressures down
Cadillac CT4 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-16500442) -

248 Driving and Operating
to 35 to 38 psi. Return the
tires to the recommended cold
tire inflation pressure when
track driving has ended.
Driving and Operating
{Warning
Operating the vehicle at high
speeds can be dangerous.
Improper tire inflation
pressure can put additional
strain on the tires and can
cause a sudden failure. Make
sure the tires are in
excellent condition, and use
the correct cold tire inflation
pressure for the vehicle load
and track/course.
{Warning
Tracks/courses put high
loads on tires operating at
high speed, which can lead
to tire failure if not inflated
properly. Always limit vehicle(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
cargo to the driver plus one
passenger with no additional
cargo.
{Warning
Track/course loads wear
tires both on the tread and
internal to the tire. When
driven in track/course
conditions, even if tread is
not worn down to the
treadwear indicator, tires
must be replaced after the
equivalent of two tanks of
fuel or approximately 160 km
(100 mi).
Custom Launch Control (If
Equipped)
Custom Launch Control allows
the following parameters for
Launch Control to be modified:
.Launch RPM
.Slip Target (5%–15%)
.Surface Type To adjust the Launch RPM, all
of these conditions must
be met:
.The vehicle must be in Track
Mode. See
“Track Mode”
under Driver Mode Control
0 292.
.Performance Traction
Management (PTM) Mode
must be enabled. See Driver
Mode Control 0292.
.The steering wheel must be
straight.
.The driver door must be
closed.
.The transmission must be in
D (Drive) or forward gear.
.The parking brake must not
be engaged.
