ECO mode CADILLAC ELDORADO 1997 10.G User Guide

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine With the automatic setting, the air conditioning
compressor automatically cycles when needed to cool
the
air. In cold weather, when the system senses the need
for heat, the airflow will be directed out
the floor
outlets. As the interior temperature approaches a desired
setting, the blower speed will decrease.
To maintain
interior comfort, the aifflow may move to the instrument
panel air outlets and floor outlets (bi-level mode). On
bright sunny days in cold weather,
the airflow may come
out of the air conditioning outlets (AC mode) to
maintain comfort and prevent stuffiness.
If your vehicle is sitting out on a hot day and you have it
set on
AUTO, the air will first flow out the floor air
outlets for a few seconds. That is normal. This is to
expel
hot air from the air outlets. As the air is cooled,
the airflow will move through
the air conditioning
outlets. If you start your vehicle with the
fan setting on
HI,
it will skip the air conditioning purge.
To avoid blowing cold
air in cold weather, the system will
delay
turning on the fan until warm air is available. The
length of delay depends on the outside
air temperature,
engine coolant temperature
or the time since the engine
was last started. As the coolant warms up, the blower fan
speed will gradually increase and air will flow from the
heater outlets, with some airflow to
the windshield to
prevent fogging under most normal conditions.
If you leave your vehicle, the system will remember the
control setting the next time you
start your engine,
except
for recirculation and defrost. Each ignition cycle
cancels recirculation, whereas,
DEFROST will change
to automatic operation when
the ignition is shut off and
then turned
back on.
You may manually adjust
the air delivery mode or
fan speed.
/.I AC: This setting directs airflow through the
middle instrument panel outlets.
'/J BI-LEVEL: This setting directs air into your
vehicle in two ways. Cool air is directed to the upper
portion
of your body through the four instrument panel
outlets while warmed
air is directed to the floor.
'fl HEATER/DEFROSE This setting directs air to
the floor outlets and toward the windshield.
1/J HEATER: This setting directs warmed air
through the
floor outlets. Some warm air is diverted to
the windshield to minimize fogging.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The braking system on a modem vehicle is complex.
Its many parts have to be of top quality and work well
together if the vehicle
is to have really good braking.
Your vehicle was designed and tested with top-quality
GM brake parts. When you replace parts of your braking
system
-- for example, when your brake linings wear
down and you have
to have new ones put in -- be sure
you get new approved
CM replacement parts. If you
don’t, your brakes may no longer work properly. For
example, if someone puts
in brake linings that are wrong
for your vehicle, the balance between your front and
rear brakes can change
-- for the worse. The braking
performance you’ve come
to expect can change in many
other ways
if someone puts in the wrong replacement
brake parts.
