P
c
:. ..; .. .. .. '... ,
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
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 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.

If your vehicle is sitting out on a hot day and you have
it set -on
AUTO, the air will first flow out the floor air
outlets for a
few seconds. That is normal. This is to
expel hot air in the air outlets.
As the air is cooled, the
aifflow will move through the
A/C outlets. If you start
your vehicle with the fan setting on
HI, it will skip the
A/C Purge.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system
will delay turning on the fan until warm air is available.
The length of delay depends on the outside air
temperature, engine coolant temperature or the time
since the engine was last started.
As the coolant warms
up, the blower fan speed will gradually increase
and air
will flow from the heater outlets, with some aifflow to
the windshield to prevent fogging under most nonnal
conditions.
If you leave your vehicle, the system will remember the
control setting
the next time you start your engine,
except for recirculation and defrost. Each ignition cycle
cancels recirculation, whereas,
DEFROST will change
to
AUTO when the ignition is shut off and then turned
back on.
Manual Operation
RECIRCULATION: Press this button to limit the
amount of fresh air entering your vehicle. This is helpful
when you are trying to cool the air quickly or limit odors
entering your vehicle. In the
AUTO mode, the system
will use recirculation as necessary to cool the air.
Pressing the recirculation button will change the
operation to a manual mode and the air will recirculate
non-stop. Press this button again to
turn off the
recirculation feature.
If you notice
the windows fogging, press the
recirculation button
to exit the recirculation mode.
OFF: Press this button to turn the system off.
Fresh air will continue to flow through the vehicle,
and the system will try
to maintain the previously set
temperature. The outside temperature will show in
the display when the system is off.
@ DE-ICE (Option): Pressing this button helps to
remove ice or frost from the windshield. See "Heated Windshield" later in this section.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Electronic Solar Sensor
The sensor monitors the sun’s solar radiation and is
located
on top of the instrument panel near the
windshield. The
ECC system uses this information to
automatically
make the necessary temperature and
airflow adjustments to maintain your
comfort.
Air Conditioning
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside
air escape. This reduces the time it takes for your
vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows closed for the air conditioner to work its best.
Press the
AUTO/ECON button to assist in cooling air
and in maintaining proper airflow. Adjust the
temperature
to a comfortable setting by pressing the
blue button to cool your vehicle
and pressing the red
button to
warm your vehicle. Press the fan button arrows
up or down
to adjust the fan speed.
When the air conditioner is on, you may sometimes
notice slight changes in your vehicle’s engine speed and
power. This is normal because the system is designed to
cycle the compressor on and off to keep the desired
temperature.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Remember: Anti-lock doesn’t change the time you need
to get your foot
up to the brake pedal or always decrease
stopping distance. If you get too close
to the vehicle in
front of you, you won’t have time to apply your brakes
if that vehicle suddenly slows or stops. Always leave
enough room
up ahead to stop, even though you have
anti-lock brakes.
Using Anti-Lock
Don’t pump the brakes. Just hold the brake pedal down
and let anti-lock work
for you. You may hear the
anti-lock
pump or motor operate, and feel the brake
pedal pulsate, but this is normal.
Traction Control System
Your vehicle has a traction control system that limits
wheel spin. This is especially useful in slippery road
conditions. The system operates only if it senses that one
or both of the front wheels are spinning
or beginning to
lose traction. When this happens, the system works
the
front brakes and reduces engine power to limit wheel
spin.
The
TRACTION ACTIVE message will display on the
Driver Information Center when the traction control system is limiting wheel spin.
See “Driver Information
Center Messages”
in the Index. You may feel or hear
the system working, but this
is normal.
If your vehicle
is in cruise control when the traction
control system begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise
control will automatically disengage. When road conditions allow you
to safely use it again, you may
re-engage the cruise control. (See “Cruise Control”
in the Index.)
