NOTICE:
Your modern Cadillac doesn’t need an elaborate
“break-in.” But it will perform better in the long
run if you follow these guidelines:
0
Don’t drive at any one speed
--
fast or
slow
--
for the first
500
miles
(804
km).
Don’t make full-throttle starts.
200
miles
(322
km) or
so.
During this time
your new brake linings aren’t yet broken
in. Hard stops with new linings can mean
premature wear and earlier replacement.
Follow this breaking-in guideline every
time you get new brake linings.
0
Don’t tow
a
trailer during break-in. See
“Towing
a
Trailer” in the Index for more
information.
0
Avoid making hard stops for the first
NOTICE:
If your key seems stuck in
LOCK
and you can’t
turn it, be sure it is
all
the way in. If it
is,
then
turn the steering wheel left and right while you
turn the key hard. But turn the key only with
your hand. Using
a
tool to force
it
could break
the key or the ignition switch. If none
of
this
works, then your vehicle needs service.
