The remote vehicle start feature provides two separate
starts, each with 10 minutes of engine running, or it
provides one start with 10 minutes of engine running
that may be extended 10 more minutes. If the transmitter
lock button is pressed and released and then the
remote start button is pressed and held again before
the rst 10 minutes of engine running time has expired,
10 minutes are added to the remaining minutes.
For example, if the lock button and then the remote
start buttons are pressed again after ve minutes of the
engine run time, 10 minutes are added and you now
have 15 minutes of engine running. The added ten
minutes are considered a second remote vehicle start.
Once two remote starts or a single start with a time
extension have been used, the vehicle must be started
normally before the remote start feature can be used
again.
The remote start feature does not operate if any of the
following occur:
The ignition is in any position other than LOCK/OFF.
A keyless access transmitter is inside the vehicle.
The hood is open.
There is an emission control system malfunction.
The remote start feature is not enabled. See
“Remote Start” underDIC Vehicle Customization on
page 3-72.
The engine turns off during a remote vehicle start if the
coolant temperature gets too high, or the oil pressure
is too low.
This vehicle was shipped from the factory with the
remote vehicle start system enabled. The system may
be disabled through the Driver Information Center (DIC).
See “Remote Start” underDIC Vehicle Customization
on page 3-72for additional information.
If this vehicle has the remote start feature, the RKE
transmitter functions have an increased range of
operation. However, the range may be less while the
vehicle is running.
There are other conditions which can affect the
performance of the transmitter, seeRemote Keyless
Entry (RKE) System on page 2-5orKeyless Access
System on page 2-8for additional information.
SeeEngine Exhaust on page 2-50for important safety
information when using remote start in a closed garage.

Oil Pressure Light
For vehicles with an oil
pressure light, if there
is a problem with the oil,
the light may stay on
after the engine is started,
or comes on while
driving.
This light indicates that oil is not going through the engine
quickly enough to keep it lubricated. The engine could be
low on oil or could have some other oil problem. Have the
vehicle serviced by your dealer/retailer.
The oil light could also come on in the following
situations:
The light comes on brie y when the ignition is
turned on to show that it is working properly.
If it does not come on with the ignition on, there
may be a problem with the fuse or bulb. Have the
vehicle serviced by your dealer/retailer.
Sometimes when the engine is idling at a stop, a
chime sounds and the light may blink on and off.
This is normal.
{CAUTION:
Do not keep driving if the oil pressure is low.
The engine can become so hot that it catches re.
Someone could be burned. Check the oil as soon
as possible and have the vehicle serviced.
Notice:Lack of proper engine oil maintenance
can damage the engine. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty. Always follow
the maintenance schedule in this manual for
changing engine oil.

Engine Oil Pressure Gage
For vehicles with an engine oil pressure gage. It shows
the engine oil pressure in psi (pounds per square inch)
when the engine is running. Canadian vehicles indicate
pressure in kPa (kilopascals).
Oil pressure may vary with engine speed, outside
temperature and oil viscosity, but if readings are outside
the normal operating range, the oil pressure light will
come on. SeeOil Pressure Light on page 3-46for more
information.A reading outside the normal operating range may be
caused by a dangerously low oil level or some other
problem causing low oil pressure. Oil should be
checked as soon as possible. See Oil pressure Low
Stop Engine underDIC Warnings and Messages
on page 3-58andEngine Oil on page 5-18.
{CAUTION:
Do not keep driving if the oil pressure is low.
The engine can become so hot that it catches re.
Someone could be burned. Check the oil as soon
as possible and have the vehicle serviced.
Notice:Lack of proper engine oil maintenance can
damage the engine. The repairs would not be

Relearn Remote Key
If the vehicle has the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
system, this display allows you to match the transmitter
to the vehicle. If the vehicle has the keyless access
system, seeKeyless Access System Operation
on page 2-8for instructions on matching a keyless
access transmitter to the vehicle. To match an RKE
transmitter to the vehicle:
1. Press the vehicle information button until
Press
VTo Relearn Remote Key displays.
2. Press the set/reset button until Remote Key
Learning Active is displayed.
3. Press and hold the lock and unlock buttons on
the rst transmitter at the same time for about
15 seconds.
On vehicles with memory recall seats, the rst
transmitter learned will match driver 1 and
the second will match driver 2.
A chime sounds indicating that the transmitter
is matched.
4. To match additional transmitters at this time,
repeat Step 3.
Each vehicle can have a maximum of
eight transmitters matched to it.
5. To exit the programming mode, you must cycle
the key to LOCK/OFF.
Trans (Transmission) Temp (Temperature)
(CTS-V Only)
This display shows the transmission uid temperature in
either degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or degrees Celsius (°C).
Oil Pressure (CTS-V Only)
This display shows the oil pressure in either pounds per
square inch (psi) or kilopascals (kPa).
Coolant Temp (Temperature) (CTS-V Only)
This display shows the engine coolant temperature in
either degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or degrees Celsius (°C).
Lateral Acceleration (CTS-V Only)
Lateral acceleration is a measure of how hard you are
taking a corner. For example, when you are turning
right you will feel your body push to the left. This force
is measured in a ‘‘g’’. This gage will display from
0.0 g to 2.0 g.
Blank Display
This display shows no information.

Calibrating Drive In Circles
This message displays when calibrating the compass.
Drive the vehicle in circles at less than 5 mph (8 km/h)
to complete the calibration. SeeDIC Compass on
page 3-56for more information.
Calibration Complete
This message displays when the compass calibration is
complete. SeeDIC Compass on page 3-56for more
information.
Change Engine Oil Soon
When this message displays, it means that service is
required for the vehicle. See your dealer/retailer.
SeeEngine Oil on page 5-18andScheduled
Maintenance on page 6-4for more information.
When you reset the Change Engine Oil Soon message
by clearing it from the display, you still must reset
the engine oil life system separately. For more
information on resetting the engine oil life system,
seeEngine Oil Life System on page 5-21.
Check Tire Pressure
This message displays when the pressure in one or
more of the vehicle’s tires needs to be checked. It also
displays Left Front, Right Front, Left Rear, or Right
Rear to indicate which tire. More than one tire pressure
message can be received at a time. To read the
other messages, press the set/reset button. If a tire
pressure message appears, stop as soon as you can.
Have the tire pressures checked and set to those shown
on the Tire Loading Information label. SeeTires on
page 5-61,Loading the Vehicle on page 4-20, and
Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-69. The DIC display
also shows the tire pressure values. SeeDIC
Operation and Displays on page 3-51. If the tire
pressure is low, the low tire pressure warning light
comes on. SeeTire Pressure Light on page 3-42.
Cruise Set To XXX MPH (km/h)
This message displays whenever the cruise control
is set. SeeCruise Control on page 3-14for more
information.
