Oil Life Indicator

This feature lets you know when to change the engine
oil. It's based on the engine oil temperatures and
your driving patterns.
To see the display, press the
INFORMATION button several times until
XX OIL
LIFE LEFT appears. If you see 99% OIL LIFE LEFT,
99% of your current oil life remains.
The DIC may display a
CHECK OIL LEVEL message.
Always keep a written record of the mileage and date
when you changed your oil. For more information, see
the Cadillac Maintenance Schedule booklet.
If you see
CHECK OIL LEVEL, it means that you have less
than 10% of the oil life left and you'should consider
changing your engine oil. If you see
CHANGE
ENGINE OIL, it means the oil life is gone and you
should change the oil right away.
The system should indicate changing the oil between
3,000 miles (5 000 km) and 7,500 miles (12 500 km).
It may indicate changing the oil before 3,000 miles
(5 000 km) depending on your driving habits. If the
vehicle has been driven
7,500 miles (12 500 km) it
will indicate to change the oil.
If you drive in a dusty
area, you should change your oil every
3,000 miles
(5 000 km) or three months (whichever comes first)
unless the display indicates changing
it sooner. The
system doesn't check
how much oil you have, so
you'll still have to check for that. To see how, see
"Engine Oil" in
the Index.
When new oil is added, you'll need to reset the system.
To reset, display the Oil Life Indicator by pressing the
INFORMATION button. Then press and hold the RESET
button until the display shows 100 OIL LIFE LEFT.
Electronic Level Control
This feature keeps the rear of your vehicle level as the
load changes. It's automatic
-- you don't need to
adjust anything.
