1996 CADILLAC SEVILLE mileage

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Speedometer and Odometer
The speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour
(km/h). The
odometer shows
how far your vehicle has been driven,
in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers
(used
in Canada).
You may wonder what happens if a vehicle has to have a
new odometer installed. The new one may read the
correct mileage.
This is because your vehicle's computer
has stored the mileage
in memory.
Tachometer (Analog Cluster)
This gage indicates the
engine speed in revolutions
per minute
(rpm).
I NOTICE:
Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the red area or engine damage
may occur.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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
120~) 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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine BBB AUTO LINE is an out-of-court program
administered by the Better Business Bureau system to
settle disputes between customers and automobile
manufacturers. This program is available free of charge
to customers who currently own or lease
a GM vehicle.
If you are not satisfied after following the Customer
Satisfaction Procedure, you may contact the BBB using
the toll-free telephone number, or write them at the
following address:
BBB
AUTO LINE
Council of Better Business Bureaus
4200 Wilson Boulevard
Suite
800
Arlington, VA 22203
Telephone: 1-800-955-5 100
To file a claim, you will be asked to provide your name
and address, your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN),
and a statement of the nature of your complaint.
Eligibility is limited
by vehicle age and mileage, and
other factors. We
prefer
you utilize the Customer Satisfaction
Procedure before you resort to
AUTO LINE, but you
may contact the BBB at any time. The BBB will attempt
to resolve the complaint serving as
an intermediary
between you and Cadillac.
If this mediation is
unsuccessful, an informal hearing will
be scheduled
where eligible customers may present their case to
an
impartial third-party arbitrator.
The arbitrator will make
a decision which you may
accept or reject.
If you accept the decision, GM will be
bound by that decision. The entire dispute resolution
procedure should ordinarily take about
40 days from the
time you file a claim until a decision is made.
Some state laws may require you to use this program
before filing a claim with a state-run arbitration program
or in the courts. For further information, contact the
BBB at
1-800-955-5 100 or the Cadillac Customer
Assistance Center at
1-800-458-8006.
