Remove the cap.
The fluid level must be to the maximum
fill line at the base of the neck as
shown. c_
When your brake fluid falls to a low level, your brake warning light will
come on. See “Brake System Warning Light”
in the Index.
Wat to Add
When you do need brake fluid, use only DOT-3 brake fluid -- such as Delco
Supreme
ll@ (GM Part No. 1052535). Use new brake fluid from a sealed
container only, and always clean the brake fluid reservoir cap before
removing
it.
NOTICE:
Don’t let someone put in the wrong kind of fluid. For
example, just
a few drops of mineral-based oil, such as
engine oil, in your brake system can damage brake system
parts
so badly that they’ll have to be replaced.
Brake fluid can damage paint, so be careful not to spill brake
fluid on your vehicle.
If you do, wash it off immediately. See
‘!Appearance Care” in the Index.

C
Your Cadillac has four-wheel disc brakes.
Disc brake pads have built-in wear indicators that make a high-pitched
warning sound when the brake pads are worn and new pads are needed.
The sound may come and go or be heard all the time your vehicle is
moving (except when you are pushing on the brake pedal firmly).
NOTICE:
Continuing to drive with worn-out brake pads could result in
costly brake repair.
Some driving conditions or climates may cause a brake squeal when the
brakes are first applied or lightly applied. This does not mean somethine
is wrong with your brakes.
Brake linings should always be replaced as complete axle sets.
r Brake Pedal Travel
See your dealer if the brake pedal does not return to normal height, or if
there is a rapid increase in pedal travel. This could be a sign of brake
trouble.
Brake Adjustment
Every time you apply the brakes, with or without the vehicle moving, your
brakes adjust for wear.

The braking system on a modern 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. Vehicles we design and test have top-quality
GM brake
parts in them, as your Cadillac does when it is new. 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
genuine
GM 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.
BATTERY
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 I_
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. 1-4
