AKENG44_Escalade Page 242 Wednesday, July 16, 2008 12:22 PM Starting and Operating Instructions ■ ADJUSTABLE ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE PEDALS The control is located on the instrument panel, below the climate control system. Press the right arrow to move the pedals closer to you or press the left arrow to return the pedals toward the standard positions. Before you begin driving, press the brake pedal to confirm that the pedal is adjusted to the correct position for you. If you cannot reach the brake pedal or are unable to fully press the pedal, readjust the pedal position. Only small adjustments should be made while driving. For information on programming the adjustable pedal positions into memory, see "Memory Feature" in Section 1. This feature will not operate under any of the following conditions: • The transmission is in R (Reverse). • Cruise control is active. ■ ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IF EQUIPPED) Use this option if you have to park in very cold weather, -18°C (0°F) or colder. You'll get easier starting and better fuel economy during engine warm-up. Your vehicle may also have an internal thermostat in the plug end of the cord. This prevents operation of the engine block heater when the temperature is at or above -18°C (0°F). The cord is located on the driver’s side of the engine compartment, near the power steering reservoir. . . . 242
AKENG44_Escalade Page 243 Wednesday, July 16, 2008 12:22 PM Section 3 To use the block heater: 1. Turn off the engine. 2. Unwrap the electrical cord and plug it in. It uses a normal, house voltage. CAUTION Plug the cord into a properly grounded outlet. You can use a heavy-duty extension cord (rated for at least 15 amps) connected to a properly grounded outlet. Ask a dealer in the area how long you should keep the heater plugged in. Be sure to unplug and restow the cord before starting the engine. Otherwise, it may be damaged by moving engine parts. ■ TRANSMISSION Automatic Transmission NOTICE Spinning the tires too fast or holding the vehicle in one place on a hill using only the accelerator pedal may damage the transmission. Any resulting damage would not be covered by your warranty. If the vehicle gets stuck do not spin the wheels too fast. – – – When stopped during an uphill climb, hold the vehicle in place using the brakes. 243 . . .
