following gap is the following
time between your vehicle and
a vehicle detected directly
ahead in your path, moving in
the same direction. If no
vehicle is detected in your
path, ACC works like regular
cruise control. ACC uses
camera and radar sensors.
See Radio Frequency
Statement0452.
If a vehicle is detected in your
path, ACC can speed up the
vehicle or apply limited,
moderate braking to maintain
the selected following gap. To
disengage ACC, apply the
brake. If ACC is controlling
your vehicle speed when the
traction control system (TCS)
or StabiliTrak electronic
stability control system
activates, ACC may
automatically disengage. See
Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control 0271. When
road conditions allow ACC to
be safely used, ACC can be turned back on. ACC will not
engage if the TCS or
StabiliTrak/ESC is disabled.
ACC can reduce the need for
you to frequently brake and
accelerate, especially when
used on expressways,
freeways, and interstate
highways. When used on other
roads, you may need to take
over the control of braking or
acceleration more often.
{Warning
ACC has limited braking
ability and may not have
time to slow the vehicle
down enough to avoid a
collision with another vehicle
you are following. This can
occur when vehicles
suddenly slow or stop
ahead, or enter your lane.
Also see
“Alerting the
Driver” in this section.
Complete attention is
always required while driving (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
and you should be ready to
take action and apply the
brakes. See Defensive
Driving0235.
{Warning
ACC will not detect or brake
for children, pedestrians,
animals, or other objects.
Do not use ACC when:
.On winding and hilly roads
or when the sensors are
blocked by snow, ice,
or dirt. The system may
not detect a vehicle
ahead. Keep the entire
front of the vehicle clean.

High Speed Operation Inflation Pressures
Tire Size Cold Inflation Pressure kPa (psi)
235/65R18 300 kPa (44 psi)
235/55R20 300 kPa (44 psi)
Return the tires to the
recommended cold tire
inflation pressure when
high-speed driving has ended.
See Vehicle Load Limits 0247
and Tire Pressure 0384.
Tire Pressure Monitor
System
The Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS) uses radio and
sensor technology to check
tire pressure levels. The TPMS
sensors monitor the air
pressure in your tires and
transmit tire pressure
readings to a receiver located
in the vehicle.
Each tire, including the spare
(if provided), should be
checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle
has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire
inflation pressure for those
tires.)
As an added safety feature,
your vehicle has been
equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS)
that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale when one or
more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat
and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces
energy efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the
vehicle's handling and
stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is
not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the
driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not

388 Vehicle Care
reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low
tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been
equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is
not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and
then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacement
or alternate tires or wheels on
the vehicle that prevent theTPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle
to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
See Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
0388.
See Radio Frequency
Statement 0452.
Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS). The TPMS is designed
to warn the driver when a low
tire pressure condition exists.
TPMS sensors are mounted
onto each tire and wheel
assembly, excluding the spare
tire and wheel assembly. The
TPMS sensors monitor the air
pressure in the tires and transmit the tire pressure
readings to a receiver located
in the vehicle.
When a low tire pressure
condition is detected, the
TPMS illuminates the low tire
pressure warning light on the
instrument cluster. If the
warning light comes on, stop
as soon as possible and inflate
the tires to the recommended
pressure shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
See Vehicle Load Limits
0247.
A message to check the
pressure in a specific tire
displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The
low tire pressure warning light
and the DIC warning message
come on at each ignition cycle
until the tires are inflated to
the correct inflation pressure.

successfully completing the
sensor matching process.
See "TPMS Sensor Matching
Process" later in this section.
.One or more TPMS sensors
are missing or damaged. The
malfunction light and the DIC
message should go off when
the TPMS sensors are
installed and the sensor
matching process is
performed successfully. See
your dealer for service.
.Replacement tires or wheels
do not match the original
equipment tires or wheels.
Tires and wheels other than
those recommended could
prevent the TPMS from
functioning properly. See
Buying New Tires0395.
.Operating electronic devices
or being near facilities using
radio wave frequencies
similar to the TPMS could
cause the TPMS sensors to
malfunction. If the TPMS is not functioning
properly it cannot detect or
signal a low tire pressure
condition. See your dealer for
service if the TPMS
malfunction light and DIC
message come on and stay on.
Tire Fill Alert (If Equipped)
This feature provides visual
and audible alerts outside the
vehicle to help when inflating
an underinflated tire to the
recommended cold tire
pressure.
When the low tire pressure
warning light comes on:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe, level place.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. Place the vehicle in P (Park).
4. Add air to the tire that is underinflated. The turn
signal lamp will flash. When the recommended
pressure is reached, the
horn sounds once and the
turn signal lamp will stop
flashing and briefly turn
solid.
Repeat these steps for all
underinflated tires that have
illuminated the low tire
pressure warning light.
{Warning
Overinflating a tire could
cause the tire to rupture
and you or others could be
injured. Do not exceed the
maximum pressure listed on
the tire sidewall. See Tire
Sidewall Labeling 0378 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0247.
If the tire is overinflated by
more than 35 kPa (5 psi), the
horn will sound multiple times
and the turn signal lamp will
continue to flash for several
seconds after filling stops. To
release and correct the
pressure, while the turn signal

If the soil is not completely
removed, it may be necessary
to use a commercial
upholstery cleaner or spot
lifter. Test a small hidden area
for colorfastness before using
a commercial upholstery
cleaner or spot lifter. If ring
formation occurs, clean the
entire fabric or carpet.
After cleaning, use a paper
towel to blot excess moisture.
Cleaning High Gloss
Surfaces and Vehicle

Satisfaction
Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill
are important to your dealer
and to Cadillac. Normally, any
concerns with the sales
transaction or the operation
of the vehicle will be resolved
by your dealer's sales or
service departments.
Sometimes, however, despite
the best intentions of all
concerned, misunderstandings
can occur. If your concern has
not been resolved to your
satisfaction, the following
steps should be taken:
STEP ONE : Discuss your
concern with a member of
dealership management.
Normally, concerns can be
quickly resolved at that level.
If the matter has already been
reviewed with the sales,
