124 Lighting
The headlamp high-beam alters according to
the traffic situation, preventing high beam
light from glaring towards oncoming or
preceding traffic. This gives the best light
distribution without glaring other road
users.
The Adaptive Headlight system remains on
until one of the following situations occurs:
.The system detects a preceding vehicle’s
taillamps.
.The vehicle speed drops below
approximately 20 km/h (12 mph).
The high beams may not turn off
automatically if the system cannot detect
another vehicle lamps because of any of the
following:
.The other vehicle’s lamps are missing,
damaged, obstructed from view,
or otherwise undetected.
.The other vehicle’s lamps are covered
with dirt, snow, and/or road spray.
.The other vehicle’s lamps cannot be
detected due to dense exhaust, smoke,
fog, snow, road spray, mist, or other
airborne obstructions.
.The vehicle windshield is dirty, cracked,
or obstructed by something that blocks
the view of the light sensor.
.The vehicle is loaded in a way that the
front end points upward, causing the light
sensor to aim high and not detect
headlamps and taillamps.
.The vehicle is being driven on winding or
hilly roads.
The Adaptive Headlight system may need to
be disabled if any of the above conditions
exist.
Do not use the Adaptive Headlight System
in dense exhaust, smoke, fog, snow, road
spray, mist, or other airborne obstructions.

Cadillac XT4 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
17180837) - 2024 - CRC - 2/28/23
Climate Controls 161
Adjustable air vents are in the center and on
the sides of the instrument panel, and on
the rear of the center console storage.
Move the slider knobs to change the
direction of or to close off the airflow.
Operation Tips
.Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from
air inlets at the base of the windshield
that could block the flow of air into the
vehicle.
.Clear snow off the hood to improve
visibility and help decrease moisture
drawn into the vehicle.
.Keep the path under the front seats clear
of objects to help circulate the air inside
of the vehicle more effectively.
.Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors
can adversely affect the performance of
the system. Check with your dealer
before adding equipment to the outside
of the vehicle.
.Do not attach any devices to the air vent
slats. This restricts airflow and may cause
damage to the air vents.
Maintenance
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
The filter reduces dust, pollen, and other
airborne irritants from outside air that is
pulled into the vehicle. The filter should be
replaced as part of routine scheduled
maintenance. SeeMaintenance Schedule
0 330.
See your dealer regarding replacement of
the filter.
Service
All vehicles have a label underhood that
identifies the refrigerant used in the vehicle.
The refrigerant system should only be
serviced by trained and certified technicians.
The air conditioning evaporator should never
be repaired or replaced by one from a
salvage vehicle. It should only be replaced
by a new evaporator to ensure proper and
safe operation.
During service, all refrigerants should be
reclaimed with proper equipment. Venting
refrigerants directly to the atmosphere is
harmful to the environment and may also create unsafe conditions based on
inhalation, combustion, frostbite, or other
health-based concerns.
The air conditioning system requires periodic
maintenance. See
Maintenance Schedule
0 330.
