from the struts 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 CONTROC’ message will display on
the Driver Information Center. If this message should appear, have your
vehicle serviced at your Cadillac dealer 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
“XXX
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.
The Oil Life Indicator may say
to change the oil sooner than your
maintenance schedule. This can happen
if driving conditions, such as
short trips
in cold weather, cause shorter oil life. Always keep a written
record of the mileage and date when you last changed your oil. For more
information on when to change your oil, see the Cadillac Maintenance
Schedule Booklet.
If you
see “CHANGE OIL SOON,” it means that you have less than 10%
of your 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 (certainly within 200 more miles
[320 km]).
