Cadillac catera 2001 User Manual

Press this button to provide
more traction when you are
starting on ice or other
slippery surfaces. It only
operates when the shift
lever is in DRIVE (D). The
button is located next to the
shift lever on the console.

The transmission will be in THIRD (3) when the vehicle
begins to move. After starting in THIRD (3), the vehicle
will upshift normally.

This feature is for improved traction only when the road
surface is slippery and is not intended for continuous use
or when the vehicle is stuck in sand, mud, ice, snow or
gravel. Drive as usual for normal road conditions.

This feature automatically turns off when any of the
following conditions occur:
D When the ignition is turned off.
D If the shift lever is placed in PARK (P), THIRD (3),

SECOND (2), or FIRST (1).

D If you press and hold the accelerator pedal past its

resistance point for more than two seconds.

D When speed falls below 25 mph (40 km/h).
D Once the vehicle reaches 67 mph (108 km/h).
To turn this feature off, press the button again.
Whenever you start your vehicle, the transmission is in
the normal mode.
