There are two things the system docsrl’r do:
It can’t sense heavy dust in the places where you drive. If you drive in a
dusty area, you should change your oil every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or
three months (whichever comes first) unlesi the display says to change
it eve11 somer than that.
0 It doesn’t check IIOCV much oil you have, so you‘ll still have to check for
that. To see how, see “Engine Oil“ in the Index.
Electronic Level Control
The Electronic Level Control (ELC) system autonmtically adjusts the rear
trim height in response to changes in vehicle loading. The system consists
of
an air compressor assembly, air drver, exhaust solcnoici, compressor
relay, height sensor, air adjustable shocks and air tubing. The compressor
is activated
when the ignition is on and a sufficient amount of weight is
added
to the car to cause the rear suspension to deflect more than
approximately one inch. The exhaust solenoid
is powered at all times,
allowing the system to exhaust with the ignition off when excess weight
is
removed from the vehicle.
If the system has a slight leak, the air compressor will run frequently for a
few seconds each time.
For a larger air leak the air compressor may stay on for up to seven
minutes. You should see your dealer for service, but
you can keep driving
lyour Cadillac.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine You slam on the brakes. Here's what happens with ABS.
A computer senses that wheels are slowing down. If one of the wheels is
about to stop rolling, the computer will separately work the brakes at each
front wheel
and at the rear wheels.
The anti-lock system can change the brake pressure faster than any driver
could. The computer
is programmed to make the most of available tire
and road conditions.
.. , ,.. .. . '.' - ... . ... .. *.
You can steer around the obstacle while braking hard.
As you brake, your computer keeps receiving updates
on wheel speed and
controls braking pressure accordingly.
Remember: Anti-lock doesn't change the time
you need to get your foot
up to the brake pedal. If you get too close to the vehicle in front of you,
you won't have time to apply your brakes if that vehicle suddenly slows or
stops. Always leave e.nough room up ahead to stop, even though you have
anti-lock brakes.
To Use Anti-Lock
Don't pump the brakes. Just hold the brake pedal down and fet anti-lock
work for
you. You may hear the anti-lock pump or motor operate, and
feel the brake pedal pulsate,
but this is normal.

"Drive ahead." Look down the road, to the sides, and to crossroads for
situations that might affect your passing patterns. If you have any
doubt whatsoever about
making a successful pass, wait for a better
time.
Watch for traffic signs, pavement markings, and lines.
if yo^ can see a
sign up ahead that might indicate a turn or an intersection, delay your
pass.
A broken center line usually indicates it's all right to pass
(providing the road ahead is clear). Never cross a solid line on your
side
of the lane or a double solid line, even if the road seems empty of
approaching traffic.
Do not get too close to the vehicle you want to pass while you're
awaiting an opportunity. For one thing, following too closely reduces
your area
of vision, especiallv if you're following a larger vehicle. Also,
you won't have adequate space if the vehicle ahead suddenly slows or
stops. Keep back
a reasonable distance.
When
it looks like a chance to pass is coming up, start to accelerate
but stay
in the right lane and don't get too close. Time your move so
you will be increasing specd as the time comes to move into the other
lane.
If the way is clear to pass, you will have a "running start" that
more than makes up
for the distance you would lose by dropping back.
And
if something happens to cause you to cancel your pass. you need
only
slow down and drop back again and wait for another opportunity
If other cars are lined up
to pass a slow vehicle, wait your turn. But
take care that someone
isn't trying c to pass you as you pull out to pass
the slow vehicle. Remember to glance over your shoulder ;ind check
the blind spot.
Check your mirrors. glancc
OVC~ your shoulder. ;~nd start your lcft 1;tnc
change signal bcfortj moving out of thc right 12111~ to pass. Whcn you
are far enough ahead of the passul vehicle to see its front in your
inside mirror, activate your right lane change signal and move back
into the right lane. (Remember that your right outside mirror is
convex. The vehicle
you just passed may seem to be farther away from
you than it really is.)
Try not to pass more than one vehicle at a time on two-lane roads.
Reconsider before passing
the next vehicle.
