recommended oil CADILLAC DEVILLE 1993 7.G Owners Manual

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine SAE 1OW-30
As shown in the viscosity chart, SAE 1OW-30 is best for your vehicle.
However, you can use
SAE 5W-30 if it’s going to be colder than 60°F
(16°C) before your next oil change. When it’s very cold, below
O°F
(-18”C), you should use SAE 5W-30.
These numbers
on an oil container show its viscosity, or thickness. Do not
use other viscosity oils such as SAE 1OW-40 or SAE
20W-50.
Energy Conserving I1
Oils with these words on the container will help you save fuel.
This doughnut-shaped logo (symbol) is used on most
oil containers to
help you select the correct
oil.
You should look for this on the oil container, and use only those oils that
display the logo.
GM Goodwrench@
oil (in Canada, GM Engine Oil) meets all the
requirements for your vehicle.
Engine Oil Additives: Don’t add anything to your oil. Your Cadillac
dealer is ready to advise if you think something should be added.
When to Change Engine Oil: Your vehicle is equipped with an Engine Oil
Life Index (EOLI) feature. Oil change intervals are determined by the
EOLI and will usually fall at, or between, the two recommended
alternative intervals of 3,000 miles
(5,000 kilometers) and 7,500 miles
(12,500 kilometers), but could be shorter than 3,000 miles (5,000
kilometers) under some very severe driving conditions shown in Schedule
I. The system will also indicate the need for an oil change if 7,500 miles
(12,500 kilometers) has been driven.
Engine oil life remaining is displayed through the Fuel Data center and as
a
“CHANGE OIL SOON” light. The Fuel Data center display includes a
number between
0 and 100. This is the percentage of oil life
REMAINING based on driving conditions and mileage driven since the
last time the oil life indicator was reset.
The EOLI will not detect excessively dusty conditions or engine
malfunctions which may effect the
oil. If you drive in dusty areas, change
the engine
oil after every 3,000 miles (5,000 kilometers) or 3 months
(whichever comes first), unless instructed to
do so sooner by the EOLI.
