display CADILLAC DTS 2010 1.G Owners Manual

At the same time a message to check the pressure in aspecific tire appears on the Driver Information Center(DIC) display. The low tire pressure warning lightand the DIC warning message come on at each ignitioncycle until the tires are inflated to the correct inflationpressure. Using the DIC, tire pressure levels canbe viewed by the driver. For additional information anddetails about the DIC operation and displays seeDIC Operation and Displays on page 4-62andDICWarnings and Messages on page 4-67.
The low tire pressure warning light may come on in coolweather when the vehicle is first started, and thenturn off as you start to drive. This could be an earlyindicator that the air pressure in the tire(s) are gettinglow and need to be inflated to the proper pressure.
A Tire and Loading Information label, attached to yourvehicle, shows the size of your vehicle’s originalequipment tires and the correct inflation pressure foryour vehicle’s tires when they are cold. SeeLoading theVehicle on page 5-18, for an example of the Tire andLoading Information label and its location on yourvehicle. Also seeInflation - Tire Pressure on page 6-54.
Your vehicle’s TPMS can warn you about a low tirepressure condition but it does not replace normaltire maintenance. SeeTire Inspection and Rotation onpage 6-62andTires on page 6-46.
Notice:Using non-approved tire sealants coulddamage the Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)sensors. TPMS sensor damage caused by usingan incorrect tire sealant is not covered by thevehicle warranty. Always use the GM approved tiresealant available through your dealer/retailer.
Factory-installed Tire Inflator Kits use a GM approvedliquid tire sealant. Using non-approved tire sealantscould damage the TPMS sensors. SeeTire Sealant andCompressor Kit on page 6-71for information regardingthe inflator kit materials and instructions.
TPMS Malfunction Light and Message
The TPMS will not function properly if one or more of theTPMS sensors are missing or inoperable. When thesystem detects a malfunction, the low tire warning lightflashes for about one minute and then stays on forthe remainder of the ignition cycle. A DIC warningmessage is also displayed. The low tire warning lightand DIC warning message come on at each ignitioncycle until the problem is corrected. Some of theconditions that can cause the malfunction light and DICmessage to come on are:
•One of the road tires has been replaced with the
spare tire. The spare tire does not have a TPMSsensor. The TPMS malfunction light and DICmessage should go off once you re-install the roadtire containing the TPMS sensor.

The TPMS sensor matching process is outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON/RUN with theengine off.
3. Press the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter’slock and unlock buttons at the same time forapproximately five seconds. The horn sounds twiceto signal the receiver is in relearn mode andTIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message displays on theDIC screen.
4. Start with the driver side front tire.
5. Remove the valve cap from the valve cap stem.Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing ordecreasing the tire’s air pressure for five seconds,or until a horn chirp sounds. The horn chirp,which may take up to 30 seconds to sound,confirms that the sensor identification code hasbeen matched to this tire and wheel position.
6. Proceed to the passenger side front tire, and repeatthe procedure in Step 5.
7. Proceed to the passenger side rear tire, and repeatthe procedure in Step 5.
8. Proceed to the driver side rear tire, and repeat theprocedure in Step 5. The horn sounds two times toindicate the sensor identification code has beenmatched to the driver side rear tire, and theTPMS sensor matching process is no longer active.The TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message on theDIC display screen goes off.
9. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK/OFF.
10. Set all four tires to the recommended air pressurelevel as indicated on the Tire and LoadingInformation label.
11. Put the valve caps back on the valve stems.

Rotation of New Tires
To maintain ride, handling, and performance of thevehicle, it is important that the first rotation service fornew tires be performed when they have 8 000 to13 000 km (5,000 to 8,000 miles). SeeTire Inspectionand Rotation on page 6-62.
Scheduled Maintenance
When the Change Engine Oil Soon
Message Displays
Change engine oil and filter. SeeEngine Oil onpage 6-13.An Emission Control Service.
When the Change Engine Oil Soon message displays,service is required for the vehicle as soon as possible,within the next 1 000 km/600 miles. If driving underthe best conditions, the engine oil life system might notindicate the need for vehicle service for more than ayear. The engine oil and filter must be changed at leastonce a year and the oil life system must be reset.Your dealer/retailer has trained service technicians whowill perform this work and reset the system.
If the engine oil life system is reset accidentally, servicethe vehicle within 5 000 km/3,000 miles since the lastservice. Reset the oil life system whenever the oilis changed. SeeEngine Oil Life System on page 6-16.
When the Change Engine Oil Soon message displays,certain services, checks, and inspections are required.
