Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control will work on hills depends
upon your speed, load and the steepness
of the hills.
When going up steep hills, you may have to step
on the
accelerator pedal
to maintain your speed. When going
downhill, you may have to brake
or shift to a lower gear
to keep your speed down.
Of course, applying the brake
takes you
out of cruise control. Many drivers find this to
be too much trouble and don’t use cruise control on
steep hills.
Ending Cruise Control
There are two ways to end cruise control:
0 Step lightly on the brake pedal.
0 Move the CRUISE switch to OFF.
Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed memory is erased when you
turn off the cruise control or the ignition.
Lamps
OFF,
The control on the left
side
of the instrument
panel controls these lamp systems:
Headlamps
Taillamps
Parking Lamps
Sidemarker Lamps
License Plate Lamp
Underhood Lamp
Fog Lamps
Instrument Panel Lights
0 Interior Courtesy Lamps

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine When DRL are on, only your high-beam headlamps (at
reduced brightness) will be on. No other exterior lamps
such
as the parking lamps, taillamps, etc. will be on
when the DRL are being used. Your instrument panel
won't be lit up either.
When it's dark enough outside, the high-beam
headlamps (at reduced intensity) will change to
low-beam headlamps. When it's bright enough outside,
the regular lamps will
go off, and the high-beam
headlamps change to the reduced brightness of
DRL.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, turn off the
twilight sentinel switch and shift the transaxle into
PARK (P). Placing your vehicle in PARK (P) disables
the DRL. The DRL will stay off until you shift out of
PARK (P).
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system when
you need it.
Fog Lamps
Use the. fog lamps for better
vision
in foggy or misty
conditions. When you press
the
fog lamp button, a small
indicator light will tell you
the
fog lamps are on. Press
the button again to turn
them
off.
If you switch on the high-beam headlamps, the fog
lamps will turn off. They'll turn back on again when you
switch to low-beam headlamps.
When
the twilight sentinel is on and the fog lamp
switch
is activated, only the headlamps will turn off
automatically. The fog lamps and parking lamps will
remain on.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine When the twilight sentinel is on and the fog lamp switch
is turned off, the headlamps and parking lamps will
deactivate. Also note that using
fog lamps during the
day will cancel the
DRL feature.
Cornering Lamps
The cornering lamps come on when the headlamps or
parking lamps are on and you signal a turn. They
provide more light for cornering.
Underhood Lamp
Turn the parking lamps on to operate the underhood
lamp. The underhood lamp will come on when the hood
is open.
Twilight Sentinel
The control is next to
the headlamp knob. It automatically switches
the lamps on and off by
sensing how dark
it is 4 OFF-
:.:e;- " ., I_ .. . ."~ outside.
Lj. v
To operate the twilight sentinel, leave the lamp knob
off and move the TWILIGHT control to any position
but
OFF.
If you move the control all the way to the right, the
lamps will remain on for approximately three minutes
after the ignition has been turned to the
OFF or LOCK
position. If
you move the control so it is just on, the
lamps will
go off quickly when you turn the ignition
switch out of
RUN. You can adjust the delay time from
only a few seconds to three minutes.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Light Sensor
The light sensor for the DRL and the twilight sentinel is
located
in the center of the front defogger grille. If you
cover the sensor, it will read "dark" and the lamps will
come on.
Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
The exterior lamps will turn off approximately 10 minutes
after the ignition
is turned to LOCK or ACC, if the manual
park lamp control
is on. This protects draining the battery
in case you have left the headlamps or parking
lamps on.
Use the control
knob to turn the lamps back on
indefmitely. (The control
knob must be cycled off and then
on
to turn the lamps back on.) To delay the lamps from
turning off, see "Twilight Sentinel" earlier in this section.
Interior Lamps
Instrument Panel Intensity Control
As you turn the headlamp knob clockwise, the
instrument panel lights will brighten. Turning the
headlamp
knob all the way clockwise will turn on the
interior lamps.
Illuminated Entry System
The illuminated entry system turns on the courtesy lamps
and the backlighting to the door switches and headlamp
knob control when a door
is opened or if you press the
Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) button. Note that the
illuminated entry system
is photocell dependent which
means that it must be dark outside
in order for the
courtesy lamps
to turn on. The courtesy lamps will turn
off approximately 20 seconds after the last door is closed.

voltage on the
DIC by pressing the INFORMATION
button. The normal range
is 11.5 to 15.5 volts when the
engine is running.
BATTERY VOLTS LOW - 06: This message will
appear when the electrical system
‘is charging less than
10 volts or if the battery has been drained. If this message
appears immediately after starting,
it is possible that the
generator can still recharge the battery. The battery should
recharge after driving a few
miles and the message should
go out.
Lf this message appears while driving or after
starting your vehicle and stays on, have it checked
immediately to determine the cause
of this problem. To
help the generator recharge the battery quickly you can
reduce the load on the electrical system by turning
off the
accessories.
You can monitor battery voltage on the DIC
by pressing the INFORMA’TION button. The normal range
is 11.5 to
15.5 volts.

or is loose when
this message appears. Your vehicle
may lose power
brakes but you will still have the
use of manual brakes.
The power brakes will not be affected
if the problem is
caused by a failed sensor. Have your vehicle serviced
immediately at your Cadillac dealership.
CHANGE ENGINE OIL - 82: This means that the life
of the engine oil has expired and it should be changed
within
200 miles. See “Engine Oil” and “Filter
Recommendations” in the Maintenance Schedule. After
an oil change, the Oil Life Indicator must be reset. See
“Oil Life Indicator” in the Index
on how to reset it.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine AC: Press this button to turn the air conditioning on and
off.
The system will cool and dehumidify the air inside
the vehicle. In the AUTO mode, the display will show
that AC is active, but the air conditioning compressor
only operates when the system determines it is needed.
RECIRCULATION: Press this button to limit the
amount of fresh air entering your vehicle. This is helpful
when you
are trying to cool the air quickly or limit odors
entering your vehicle. In the AUTO mode, the system
will use recirculation as necessary to cool the
air.
Pressing the recirculation button will change the
operation to a manual mode and the air will recirculate
non-stop. Press this button again to turn off the
recirculation feature.
If you notice the windows fogging, press
the
recirculation button to exit the recirculation mode.
DUAL TEMPERATURE CONTROL: With this
feature, the right front passenger can control the
temperature of heated air for hisher own zone. The
passenger can select a four degree warmer or cooler
temperature from the driver’s setting.
To turn the system
on, press the PASS/TEMP button. Press the up arrow to
increase
the temperature and press the down arrow to
decrease the climate setting. Pressing the
OFF button
will turn off the dual-zone function.
Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed
for the
air conditioner to work its best.
With the
ECC system, press the AUTO/ECON button to
assist in cooling air and
in maintaining proper airflow.
Adjust the temperature to a comfortable setting by
pressing the blue button to cool your vehicle and
pressing the red button to warm your vehicle. Press the
fan button arrows up or down to adjust the fan speed.
If you have the dual-zone system, press the AC button
to turn the system on and then select
the proper MODE
to direct airflow. The system will cool and dehumidify
the air inside the vehicle. Also while in the AUTO
mode, the system will use recirculation as necessary to
cool the air. You may also need to adjust the interior
temperature. Turn the TEMP knob clockwise to increase
the temperature and counterclockwise
to decrease
temperature. Adjust the fan speed as needed.
When the air conditioner .is on, you may sometimes
notice slight changes in your vehicle’s engine speed and
power. This is normal because the system is designed to
cycle the compressor
on and off to keep the desired
temperature.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Heated Windshield (Option)
The heated windshield will remove ice or frost in cold
weather.
1. Remove snow that is piled up on the windshield.
2. Start your Cadillac and leave it in PARK (P).
3. Press the DE-ICE button. A light will come on to tell
you
it is working. Try not to use other electrical
equipment while the system is working.
The system will go off after a four-minute heating cycle.
If you shift out of PARK (P), the system will only cycle
for two minutes.
If you want it to cycle again, press the
button.
It will go on for two-minute cycles after that. If
the windshield has cleared before the cycle is over, you
can turn
it off by pressing the button again. Use
the defroster feature to clear
fog from the
windshield
as previously described.
There is
a metal film in the windshield which will block
out some radio or microwave signals. Therefore, the
heated windshield will reduce the
useful range of
devices such as garage door openers and radar detectors.
(In certain states, radar detectors are legal.)
Do not use the DE-ICE button if your vehicle has a.
cracked windshield.
A crack will not allow the system to
function properly. Have the windshield repaired before
using the DE-ICE button again.
