Introduction
This manual provides practical guidance on
driving and caring for your Cadillac.
Although this manual describes the most
important differences between model vari-
ants, it does not include their precise speci-
fications. Some differences also occur to
meet national legal requirements.
This manual contains important warning
texts that must always be observed:
We recommend that you read through this
manual before taking the car out for the first
time and that you keep it in the car for future
reference.
Finding your way around this manual is
simple. To find a specific item, use the
search pages at the start of the manual.
A list of contents is provided at the begin-
ning of each section and there is a compre-
hensive alphabetical index at the back of
the manual.
A Warranty and Service Book is supplied
when the car is delivered. This specifies
the regular maintenance to be carried out
and also contains important information on
warranty conditions.
Since the policy at Cadillac is one of con-
tinual improvement, we retain the right to
incorporate modifications and to alter spec-
ifications during production without prior
notice.
3 Asterisk means: equipment not fitted in all
cars (can depend on model variant, engine
variant, market specification, options or
accessories).
An authorised Cadillac dealer would be
glad to help with any queries you may have
concerning your car’s functions, care,
warranty, etc.
Best wishes,
Cadillac
