Automatic Level Control; Cruise Control - Cadillac XTS 2019 Owner's Manual

186 DRIVING AND OPERATING
For vehicles with eLSD, driven under
severe conditions, the rear axle fluid
should be changed. See Maintenance
Schedule 0 291.

Automatic Level Control

If equipped, the automatic level
control rear suspension provides a
better leveled riding position as well
as better handling under a variety of
passenger and loading conditions. It is
fully automatic. An air compressor
connected to the rear air springs will
raise or lower the rear of the vehicle
to maintain proper vehicle height. The
system is activated when the engine is
running and will automatically adjust
vehicle height thereafter. If passengers
get out or if cargo is removed from
the vehicle after the vehicle is shut
off, the system may lower the vehicle
height for up to 10 minutes after the
engine has been turned off. You may
hear the air compressor operating
when the height is being adjusted; this
is normal. This noise will only happen
when the engine is running. The
system will lower the vehicle with the
engine off, but will not raise the
vehicle until the engine is started.
If the compressor runs often for
longer than one minute within the
same trip and the vehicle remains low
in the rear, see your dealer for service.
If the vehicle is not used for several
weeks, or if there is a large
temperature drop while the vehicle is
parked and shut off, the rear of the
vehicle may look low. When the
engine is started, the vehicle will
return to the proper height.
If a weight-distributing hitch is being
used, it is recommended to allow the
air springs to inflate, thereby leveling
the vehicle prior to adjusting the
hitch.

Cruise Control

Warning
Cruise control can be dangerous
where you cannot drive safely at a
steady speed. Do not use cruise
control on winding roads or in
heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could
lose control. Do not use cruise
control on slippery roads.
With cruise control, a speed of about
40 km/h (25 mph) or more can be
maintained without keeping your foot
on the accelerator. Cruise control does
not work at speeds below about
40 km/h (25 mph).
If the Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control system begins to
limit wheel spin while using cruise
control, the cruise control
automatically disengages. See Traction
Control/Electronic Stability Control
