Road
Sensing
Suspension
The Road Sensing Suspension
(RSS)
automatically controls the ride
of
your vchicle.
The
system controls damping forces
in
the shock absorbers
and struts
in
response to various road and driving conditions. The system
is capable of making these changes
within
milliseconds.
The Road Sensing Suspension controller is
a
computer used to control
and monitor thc system.
The
computer receives input from vertical rotary
position sensors, vehicle speed
sensors,
lift
and dive signals
and
determines optimum strut
valving
(suspension stiffness) for
your
current
operating conditions. The computer
also
receives feedback from the
various components to determine proper system operation.
If
the
computer receives
an
incorrect feedback from
the
system,
an
error code
will
be
set
in
memory
and
a
SERVICE
RIDE
CONTROL
message
will
display
on
the
Driver Information Center.
If
this message
should
appear,
have your vehicle serviccd
at
your Cadillac dealership
at
your earliest
convenience.
Oil
Life
Indicator
This
feature lets
you know
when
to
change
your engine oil. It's based
upon
the
engine
oil
temperatures
and
your driving patterns.
To
see
the
display
press
the
INFORMATION button several times
until
XX
OIL LIFE
LEFT
appears.
You'll
see
how
much
oil life you have
left
as
a
percentage.
So,
if
you
see
95
OIL
LIFE
LEFT,
for example,
that means that
the
way
you're driving
your
car,
95%
of
your current oil
life
is
still
left.
