Oils with these  words  on  the  container will help you  save  fuel. 
This  doughnut-shaped  logo (symbol) is used  on most oil  containers  to 
help  you select  the correct  oil. 
You  should look  for this  on the 
oil container,  and  use only those oils that 
display  the logo. 
GM  Goodwrench@  oil (in  Canada,  GM  Engine  Oil) meets  all the 
requirements  for  your vehicle. 
Engine Oil Additives: Don’t  add anything  to your  oil.  Your  Cadillac 
dealer 
is ready  to advise  if  you think something  should  be  added. 
When  to  Change  Engine Oil: Your  vehicle is equipped  with an  engine oil 
life indicator  (EOLI)  feature.  Oil change  intervals  are  determined  by the 
EOLI and will usually  fall at,  or  between,  the two recommended 
alternative  intervals of 
3,000 miles (5,000 kilometers)  and 7,500 miles 
(12,500 kilometers),  but  could be shorter  than 3,000 miles (5,000 
kilometers)  under some very severe  driving  conditions  shown  in Schedule 
I.  The  system  will  also indicate  the need  for  an oil change 
if 7,500 miles 
(12,500 kilometers). 
When  the  oil life index  reaches 
0, the  “CHANGE OII? light come  on. 
This  indicates  that  no  oil life  remains  and the oil should  be changed as 
soon  as possible,  but certainly within  the next 
200 miles (320 km). 
The  EOLI  will not  detect  excessively  dusty conditions  or  engine 
malfunctions  which  may effect the 
oil. If you drive in dusty  areas,  change 
the  engine  oil after  every 
3,000 miles (5,000 kilometers)  or 3 months 
(whichever comes  first), unless  instructed  to do 
so sooner  by the 
“CHANGE 
OW light.
