The Road Sensing Suspension (RSS) automatically controls the ride of
your vehicle. 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 the system. The computer receives input from vertical rotary
I__
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 serviced 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.

you're driving your car,
95% of your current oil
life is still left.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Electronic Level Control
The level control system automatically adjusts the rear trim height in
response to changes in vehicle loading. The system consists of an air
compressor assembly, air dryer, exhaust solenoid, compressor relay,
height sensor, air adjustable shocks and air tubing.
The height sensing function is performed by
the Road-Sensing Suspension
(RSS) rear position sensors. Rear trim height information is input from -
the rear position sensors to the RSS control module which controls
compressor and exhaust solenoid operation.
If the system has
a slight leak, the air compressor will run frequently for a -
few seconds each time.
For a larger air leak the air compressor may stay on for up to seven
minutes. You should see your dealer for service, but
you can keep driving
your Cadillac. --
