Starting Your Engine
Move your shift lever to PARK
(P)
or NEUTRAL (N).
Your engine won't start in any other position
--
that's a
safety feature. To restart when you're already moving,
use NEUTRAL (N) only.
NOTICE:
Holding your key in START for longer than
15 seconds at a time will cause your battery to
be
drained much sooner. And the excessive heat can
NOTICE:
damage your starter motor.
Don't
try
to shift to PARK (P) if your Cadillac is
moving. If you do, you could damage the
transaxle.
Shift
to PARK
(P)
only when your
vehicle is stopped.
1. Without pushing the accelerator pedal, turn your
ignition key to START. When the engine starts, let
go of the key. The idle speed will go down as your
engine gets warm.
2. If it doesn't start right away, hold your key in
START for about three seconds at a time until your
engine starts. Wait about 15 seconds between each
try
to help avoid draining your battery or damaging
your starter.
