460_OM_MY09.book Page 222 Wednesday, April 2, 2008 10:32 AM 222 Car care Do not wipe away the grease in the wheel hub Grease the surfaces indicated with a thin layer of grease Tightening sequence, wheel bolts 6 Fit the wheel and screw in the bolts in the sequence shown (opposite pairs). Tighten the bolts enough for the bolts and wheel to be seated correctly. 7 Lower the car and tighten the wheel bolts to torque in sequence. Tightening torque: Light-alloy wheels: 110 Nm. Steel wheels: 110 Nm. NOTICE • Do not overtighten the bolts using a percussion nut tightener: not only can this damage the wheels but it can also make it impossible to undo the bolts using the wheel wrench in the car’s toolkit. 8 Retighten the wheel bolts after twenty or so miles. Tightening torque: Light-alloy wheels: 110 Nm. Steel wheels: 110 Nm. We advise against using wheels with large ventilation slots in winter, as the brake components are then more exposed to slush, road salt and grit. If you fit wheels of a different size, the speedometer can be reprogrammed to ensure it is as accurate as possible. We recommend that you contact an authorised Cadillac workshop.

460_OM_MY09.book Page 223 Wednesday, April 2, 2008 10:32 AM Car care 223 Tyre repair kit 3 WARNING Make sure no one can jog the gear lever, for example, as the engine must be idling when the tyre is repaired. There is otherwise a risk of personal injury. Do not use the repair kit if: • the damage to the tyre is larger than 4mm. • the wheel is damaged. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) after repairing one of the car tyres with the repair kit. NOTICE Change the punctured tyre as soon as possible. Replenish the repair kit at a workshop. We recommend that you contact an authorised Cadillac workshop. The sealant canister must be replaced once every four years. See the date on the canister. The handling characteristics of the car may be impaired. Driving with a tyre that is underinflated or has a puncture can damage the tyre in such a way that it is not possible to repair it with the sealant. The tyre repair kit replaces the spare wheel. The repair kit allows a punctured tyre to be temporarily repaired and reinflated without needing to remove the wheel. Minor damage to the tyre, such as a foreign object that has penetrated the tread, can be temporarily repaired with the repair kit. Do not remove the foreign object. Damage larger than 4 mm and damage to the sidewalls cannot be repaired with the repair kit. Follow the instructions supplied with the repair kit carefully. If the compressor sounds strange or becomes abnormally hot, leave it switched off for at least 30 minutes. Prevent the compressor getting wet. The sealant canister can only be used once. Replace a used canister at a workshop. We recommend that you contact an authorised Cadillac workshop. The tyre repair kit can be used at temperatures down to –30 °C. At low temperatures the sealant is more viscous and so is less able to seal slightly larger damage. If a punctured tyre is to be repaired: • Allow the engine to idle. The compressor will consume some energy. • Apply the handbrake. • Turn on the hazard warning light. • Position the warning triangle to warn other drivers. The repair kit is stowed under the luggage compartment floor.
