c. Every new Cadillac has a Delco Freedom@ battery. You never have to add
water to one
of these. When it’s time for a new battery, we recommend a
Delco Freedom@ battery. Get
one that has the replacement number
shown on the original battery’s label.
Whicle Storage
If you’re not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days or more, take off the
black, negative
(-) cable from the battery. This will help keep your battery
from running down.
Contact your dealer to learn how to prepare your vehicle
for longer
storage periods.
Battery Power Loss
If you lose battery power or the battery is disconnected, your car’s
computer must be programmed. It takes just over
20 minutes to do it. If
you want to do it yourself, here’s how:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Make sure the front wheels are straight.
3. Turn off the Electronic Climate Control.
4. Start the engine in PARK (P) and let it idle for 15 minutes.
5. Put your foot on the brake pedal, shift the transaxle to OVERDRIVE
(@) and let it idle for three minutes or more. Do not accelerate the
engine.
