2007 CADILLAC CTS V navigation system

Top Speed – Fuel Cut Off
This message will appear when the Engine
Control Module (ECM) detects that the maximum
speed for your vehicle has been reached. Your
vehicle’s top speed is based on the top speed
rating of the tires. This ensures that your vehicle
stays in a safe operating range for the tires.
Traction Engaged
This message will appear when the Traction
Control System (TCS) is actively limiting wheel
spin. Slippery road conditions may exist if
this message is displayed, so adjust your driving
accordingly. The message will stay on for a
few seconds after the TCS stops limiting wheel
spin. SeeTraction Control System (TCS) (CTS) on
page 293orTraction Control System (TCS)
(CTS-V) on page 295for more information.
Trans (Transmission) Hot – Idle Engine
This message indicates that the transmission
uid in your vehicle is too hot. Stop the vehicle and
allow it to idle until the transmission cools down
or until this message is removed. See also
Transmission Fluid Hot Message on page 219for
more information.
Trunk Open
When this message appears on the display, it
means that the trunk lid of your vehicle was not
closed completely. You should make sure that the
trunk lid is closed completely.
Turn Signal On
If you drive your vehicle for more than about
1 mile (1.6 km) with a turn signal on, this message
will appear as a reminder to turn off the turn
signal. A multiple chime will sound when this
message is displayed.
DIC Vehicle Personalization
If your vehicle has the Navigation system, see the
Navigation system manual for instructions on
operating the DIC for your vehicle.
Your vehicle has personalization that allows you to
program certain features to a preferred setting
for up to two people. The number of programmable
features varies depending upon which model of
the vehicle is purchased.

Navigation/Radio System
Your vehicle may have a navigation radio system.
The navigation system has built-in features
intended to minimize driver distraction. Technology
alone, no matter how advanced, can never
replace your own judgment. See the Navigation
System manual for some tips to help you
reduce distractions while driving.
Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCK®is designed to discourage theft
of your vehicle’s radio. The feature works
automatically by learning a portion of the Vehicle
Identication Number (VIN). If the radio is
moved to a different vehicle, it does not operate.
If the radio is removed from your vehicle, the
original VIN in the radio can be used to trace the
radio back to your vehicle.
With THEFTLOCK
®activated, the radio does not
operate if stolen.

How to Reset the Engine Oil Life
System and the Oil Life Indicator
The Engine Oil Life System calculates when to
change your engine oil and lter based on vehicle
use. Anytime your oil is changed, reset the system
so it can calculate when the next oil change is
required. If a situation occurs where you change
your oil prior to a change engine oil message in the
DIC being turned on, reset the system.
After the oil has been changed, the change engine
oil message and the oil life indicator must be
reset. To reset the message and indicator, use one
of the following procedures:
Base Audio System
Press the CLR button located to the right of the
DIC display to acknowledge the change engine oil
message. This will clear the message from the
display and reset it.To reset the oil life indicator, use the following
steps:
1. Press the up or down arrow on the INFO
button located to the right of the DIC
display to access the DIC menu.
2. Once XXX% ENGINE OIL LIFE menu item is
highlighted, press and hold the CLR button.
The percentage will return to 100, and
the oil life indicator will be reset. Repeat the
steps if the percentage does not return to 100.
3. Turn the key to OFF.
If the change engine oil message comes back on
when you start your vehicle, the engine oil life
system has not reset. Repeat the procedure.Navigation System
If you have the navigation system, see “Vehicle
Customization” in the Navigation System Manual
for how to reset the oil life indicator.

To reset the transmission uid life indicator, use the
following steps:
1. Press the up or down arrow on the INFO
(Information) button located to the right of the
DIC display to access the DIC menu.
2. Once the XXX% TRANS FLUID LIFE menu
item is highlighted, press and hold the CLR
button.
The percentage will return to 100, and the
transmission uid life indicator will be reset.
3. Repeat the steps if the percentage does not
return to 100.
Navigation System
If your vehicle has a navigation system, see your
Navigation System Manual for instructions on
how to acknowledge the Change Trans Fluid
message and reset the transmission uid
life indicator.
Manual Transmission Fluid
When to Check Manual Transmission
Fluid
It is not necessary to check the manual
transmission uid level. A transmission uid leak is
the only reason for uid loss. If a leak occurs, take
the vehicle to your GM dealer service department
and have it repaired as soon as possible.
How to Check Manual Transmission
Fluid
Because this operation can be difficult, you may
choose to have this done at your GM dealer
service department.
If you do it yourself, be sure to follow all the
instructions here, or you could get a false reading.
Notice:Too much or too little uid can damage
your transmission. Too much can mean that
some of the uid could come out and fall on hot
engine parts or exhaust system parts, starting a
re. Too little uid could cause the
transmission to overheat. Be sure to get an
accurate reading if you check your
transmission uid.

The high-performance tires, size P225/55R16,
P225/50R17 or P225/50R18 require ination
pressure adjustment when driving your vehicle at
speeds of 100 mph (160 km/h) or higher. Set
the cold tire ination pressure to the maximum
ination pressure shown on the tire sidewall,
or 38 psi (262 kPa), whichever is lower. See the
example following.
Example:
You will nd the maximum load and ination
pressure molded on the tire’s sidewall, in small
letters, near the rim ange. It will read something
like this: Maximum load 710 kg (1565 lbs)
350 kPa (51 psi) Max. Press.
For this example, you would set the cold ination
pressure for high-speed driving at 38 psi (262 kPa)
When you end high-speed driving, return the tires
to the cold ination pressures shown on the
tire and loading information label. SeeLoading
Your Vehicle on page 321.Tire Pressure Monitor System
Your vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS). This system uses radio and
sensor technology to check tire pressure levels.
If your vehicle has this feature, sensors are
mounted on each the tire and wheel assembly,
except for the spare tire. The TPMS sensors
monitor the air pressure in the vehicle’s tires and
transmits the tire pressure readings to a receiver
located in the vehicle.
If your vehicle has the base audio system, the
Driver Information Center (DIC) displays TPMS
warnings and messages on the radio’s display
screen. SeeSystem Controls on page 223
andDIC Warnings and Messages on page 232for
additional information and details about the DIC
operation and displays. If your vehicle has
the Navigation system, TPMS warnings and
messages are displayed on the message center
screen, located inside the tachometer. See
Message Center (CTS-V) on page 215for
information about the message center operation
and displays.
