Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 percent 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
how 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 (INFO) button. Then press and hold
the RESET button until the display shows 100% OIL
LIFE LEFT.
