Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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.
The Oil Life Indicator may say to change the oil SOOII~I- 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 wl~en you last changed your oil. For moro
information
on when to change your oil. see the Cadillac Maintenxw
Schedule Booklet.
If you see CHANGE OIL SOON, it means that you have less than iWk 01
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]).
The system should indicate to change the oil between 3,000 miles
(5 000 km) and 7,500 miles (12 500 km), but it may even indicate to
change it before 3,000 miles under very severe conditions. It all depends
on your driving patterns. If it's been 7,500 miles (12 500 km), it indicates
to change the oil.
