Bulb Replacement
For the proper type of
replacement bulbs, or any bulb
changing procedure not listed
in this section, contact your
dealer.
Caution
Do not replace incandescent
bulbs with aftermarket LED
replacement bulbs. This can
cause damage to the vehicle
electrical system.
LED Lighting
This vehicle has several LED
lamps. For replacement of any
LED lighting assembly, contact
your dealer.
Electrical System
High Voltage Devices
and Wiring
{Warning
Exposure to high voltage
can cause shock, burns, and
even death. The high voltage
components in the vehicle
can only be serviced by
technicians with special
training.
High voltage components
are identified by labels. Do
not remove, open, take
apart, or modify these
components. High voltage
cable or wiring has orange
covering or labels. Do not
probe, tamper with, cut,
or modify high voltage cable
or wiring.
Electrical System
Overload
The vehicle has fuses and
circuit breakers to protect
against an electrical system
overload.
When the current electrical
load is too heavy, the circuit
breaker opens and closes,
protecting the circuit until the
current load returns to normal
or the problem is fixed. This
greatly reduces the chance of
circuit overload and fire
caused by electrical problems.
Fuses and circuit breakers
protect the wires that provide
the power to the devices in
your vehicle.
If there is a problem on the
road and a fuse needs to be
replaced, the same amperage
fuse can be borrowed. Choose
some feature of the vehicle
that is not needed to use and
replace it as soon as possible.

Vehicle Care 325
4. If the fuse must be replacedimmediately, borrow a
replacement fuse with the
same amperage from the
fuse block. Choose a vehicle
feature that is not needed
to safely operate the
vehicle. Repeat Steps 2–3.
5. Insert the replacement fuse into the empty slot of the
blown fuse.
At the next opportunity, see
your dealer to replace the
blown fuse.
Headlamp Wiring
An electrical overload may
cause the lamps to go on and
off, or in some cases to remain
off. Have the headlamp wiring
checked right away if the
lamps go on and off or
remain off.
Windshield Wipers
If the wiper motor overheats
due to heavy snow or ice, the
windshield wipers will stop
until the motor cools and will
then restart.
Although the circuit is
protected from electrical
overload, overload due to
heavy snow or ice may cause
wiper linkage damage. Always
clear ice and heavy snow from
the windshield before using
the windshield wipers.
If the overload is caused by an
electrical problem and not
snow or ice, be sure to get it
fixed.
Fuses and Circuit
Breakers
The wiring circuits in the
vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination
of fuses and circuit breakers.
This greatly reduces the
chance of damage caused by
electrical problems.
{Danger
Fuses and circuit breakers
are marked with
their ampere rating. Do not
exceed the
specified amperage rating
when replacing fuses and
circuit breakers. Use of an
oversized fuse or circuit
breaker can result in a
vehicle fire. You and others
could be seriously injured or
killed.
{Warning
Installation or use of fuses
that do not meet GM’s
original fuse specifications is
dangerous. The fuses could
fail, and result in a fire. You (Continued)

{Warning
.Poorly maintained and
improperly used tires
are dangerous.
.Overloading the tires
can cause overheating
as a result of too much
flexing. There could be
a blowout and a serious
crash. See Vehicle Load
Limits0202.
.Underinflated tires
pose the same danger
as overloaded tires. The
resulting crash could
cause serious injury.
Check all tires
frequently to maintain
the recommended
pressure. Tire pressure
should be checked
when the tires are cold.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
.Overinflated tires are
more likely to be cut,
punctured, or broken by
a sudden impact —such
as when hitting a
pothole. Keep tires at
the recommended
pressure.
.Worn or old tires can
cause a crash. If the
tread is badly worn,
replace them.
.Replace any tires that
have been damaged by
impacts with potholes,
curbs, etc.
.Improperly repaired
tires can cause a crash.
Only your dealer or an
authorized tire service
center should repair,
replace, dismount, and
mount the tires.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
.Do not spin the tires in
excess of 56 km/h
(35 mph) on slippery
surfaces such as snow,
mud, ice, etc. Excessive
spinning may cause the
tires to explode.
All-Season Tires
This vehicle may come with
all-season tires. These tires
are designed to provide good
overall performance on most
road surfaces and weather
conditions. Original equipment
tires designed to GM's specific
tire performance criteria have
a TPC specification code
molded onto the sidewall.
Original equipment all-season
tires can be identified by the
last two characters of this
TPC code, which will be “MS.”
Consider installing winter tires
on the vehicle if frequent
driving on snow or ice-covered

and the original equipment
tire size and recommended
inflation pressure. See“Tire
and Loading Information
Label” under Vehicle Load
Limits 0202.
Tire Pressure
Tires need the correct
amount of air pressure to
operate effectively.
{Warning
Neither tire underinflation
nor overinflation is good.
Underinflated tires,
or tires that do not have
enough air, can result in:
.Tire overloading and
overheating, which
could lead to a blowout
.Premature or
irregular wear
.Poor handling
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
.Reduced fuel economy
for internal combustion
engine vehicles
.Reduced range for
electric vehicles
Overinflated tires, or tires
that have too much air,
can result in:
.Unusual wear
.Poor handling
.Rough ride
.Needless damage from
road hazards
The Tire and Loading
Information label on the
vehicle indicates the
original equipment tires
and the correct cold tire
inflation pressures. The
recommended pressure is
the minimum air pressure
needed to support the vehicle's maximum load
carrying capacity. See
Vehicle Load Limits
0202.
How the vehicle is loaded
affects vehicle handling
and ride comfort. Never
load the vehicle with more
weight than it was
designed to carry.
When to Check
Check the pressure of the
tires once a month or more.
How to Check
Use a good quality
pocket-type gauge to
check tire pressure. Proper
tire inflation cannot be
determined by looking at
the tire. Check the tire
inflation pressure when the
tires are cold, meaning the
vehicle has not been driven
for at least three hours or
no more than 1.6 km (1 mi).

maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low
tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been
equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is
not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and
then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacementor alternate tires or wheels on
the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle
to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
See Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
0344.
See Radio Frequency
Statement 0395.
Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS). The TPMS is designed
to warn the driver when a low
tire pressure condition exists.
TPMS sensors are mounted
onto each tire and wheel
assembly, excluding the spare
tire and wheel assembly. The
TPMS sensors monitor the air
pressure in the tires and transmit the tire pressure
readings to a receiver located
in the vehicle.
When a low tire pressure
condition is detected, the
TPMS illuminates the low tire
pressure warning light located
on the instrument cluster.
If the warning light comes on,
stop as soon as possible and
inflate the tires to the
recommended pressure
shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See
Vehicle Load Limits
0202.
A message to check the
pressure in a specific tire
displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The
low tire pressure warning light
and the DIC warning message
come on each time the vehicle
is turned on until the tires are
Page 346 of 424

Cadillac Lyriq Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-15644413) -

Vehicle Care 345
inflated to the correct inflation
pressure. If the vehicle has
DIC buttons, tire pressure
levels can be viewed. For
additional information and
details about the DIC
operation and displays, see
Driver Information Center
(DIC)0132.
The low tire pressure warning
light may come on in cool
weather when the vehicle is
first started, and then turn off
as the vehicle is driven. This
could be an early indicator
that the air pressure is getting
low and needs to be inflated to
the proper pressure.
A Tire and Loading
Information label shows the
size of the original equipment
tires and the correct inflation
pressure for the tires when
they are cold. See Vehicle
Load Limits 0202, for an
example of the Tire and
Loading Information label and
its location. Also see Tire
Pressure 0342. The TPMS can warn about a
low tire pressure condition but
it does not replace normal tire
maintenance. See Tire
Inspection
0347, Tire Rotation
0 348, and Tires 0334.
Caution
Tire sealant materials are
not all the same.
A non-approved tire sealant
could damage the TPMS
sensors. TPMS sensor
damage caused by using an
incorrect tire sealant is not
covered by the vehicle
warranty. Always use only
the GM approved tire
sealant available through
your dealer or included in
the vehicle.
TPMS Malfunction Light
and Message
The TPMS will not function
properly if one or more of the
TPMS sensors are missing or
inoperable. When the system
detects a malfunction, the low tire pressure warning light
flashes for about one minute
and then stays on for the
remainder of the time the
vehicle is on. A DIC warning
message also displays. The
malfunction light and DIC
warning message will come on
each time the vehicle is turned
on until the problem is
corrected. Some of the
conditions that can cause
these to come on are:
.One of the road tires has
been replaced with the
spare tire. The spare tire
does not have a TPMS
sensor. The malfunction light
and the DIC message should
go off after the road tire is
replaced and the sensor
matching process is
performed successfully. See
"TPMS Sensor Matching
Process" later in this section.
.The TPMS sensor matching
process was not done or not
completed successfully after
rotating the tires. The
malfunction light and the DIC

346 Vehicle Care
message should go off after
successfully completing the
sensor matching process.
See "TPMS Sensor Matching
Process" later in this section.
.One or more TPMS sensors
are missing or damaged. The
malfunction light and the DIC
message should go off when
the TPMS sensors are
installed and the sensor
matching process is
performed successfully. See
your dealer for service.
.Replacement tires or wheels
do not match the original
equipment tires or wheels.
Tires and wheels other than
those recommended could
prevent the TPMS from
functioning properly. See
Buying New Tires0350.
.Operating electronic devices
or being near facilities using
radio wave frequencies
similar to the TPMS could
cause the TPMS sensors to
malfunction. If the TPMS is not functioning
properly, it cannot detect or
signal a low tire pressure
condition. See your dealer for
service if the TPMS
malfunction light and DIC
message come on and stay on.
Tire Fill Alert (If Equipped)
This feature provides visual
and audible alerts outside the
vehicle to help when inflating
an underinflated tire to the
recommended cold tire
pressure.
When the low tire pressure
warning light comes on:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe, level place.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. Place the vehicle in P (Park).
4. Add air to the tire that is underinflated. The turn
signal lamp will flash.
When the recommended
pressure is reached, the
horn sounds once and the turn signal lamp will stop
flashing and briefly turn
solid.
Repeat these steps for all
underinflated tires that have
illuminated the low tire
pressure warning light.{Warning
Overinflating a tire could
cause the tire to rupture
and you or others could be
injured. Do not exceed the
maximum pressure listed on
the tire sidewall. See Tire
Sidewall Labeling 0337 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0202.
If the tire is overinflated by
more than 35 kPa (5 psi), the
horn will sound multiple times
and the turn signal lamp will
continue to flash for several
seconds after filling stops. To
release and correct the
pressure, while the turn signal
lamp is still flashing, briefly
press the center of the valve

Vehicle Care 347
stem. When the recommended
pressure is reached, the horn
sounds once.
If the turn signal lamp does
not flash within 15 seconds
after starting to inflate the
tire, the tire fill alert has not
been activated or is not
working.
If the hazard warning flashers
are on, the tire fill alert visual
feedback will not work
properly.
The TPMS will not activate the
tire fill alert properly under the
following conditions:
.There is interference from
an external device or
transmitter.
.The air pressure from the
inflation device is not
sufficient to inflate the tire.
.There is a malfunction in
the TPMS.
.There is a malfunction in the
horn or turn signal lamps.
.The identification code of
the TPMS sensor is not
registered to the system.
.The battery of the TPMS
sensor is low.
If the tire fill alert does not
operate due to TPMS
interference, move the vehicle
about 1 m (3 ft) back or
forward and try again. If the
tire fill alert feature is not
working, use a tire pressure
gauge.
TPMS Sensor Matching
Process —Auto Learn
Function
Each TPMS sensor has a
unique identification code. The
identification code needs to be
matched to a new tire/wheel
position after rotating the
tires or replacing one or more
of the TPMS sensors. When a
tire is installed, the vehicle
must be stationary for about
20 minutes before the system
recalculates. The following
relearn process takes up to 10 minutes, driving at a
minimum speed of 20 km/h
(12 mph). A dash (-) or pressure
value will display in the DIC.
See Driver Information Center
(DIC)
0132. A warning
message displays in the DIC if
a problem occurs during the
relearn process.
Tire Inspection
We recommend that the
tires, including the spare
tire, if the vehicle has one,
be inspected for signs of
wear or damage at least
once a month.
Replace the tire if:
.The indicators at three or
more places around the
tire can be seen.
.There is cord or fabric
showing through the
tire's rubber.

348 Vehicle Care
.The tread or sidewall is
cracked, cut, or snagged
deep enough to show
cord or fabric.
.The tire has a bump,
bulge, or split.
.The tire has a puncture,
cut, or other damage that
cannot be repaired well
because of the size or
location of the damage.
Tire Rotation
Tires should be rotated
according to the interval
listed in the maintenance
schedule. See Maintenance
Schedule0376.
Tires are rotated to
achieve a more uniform
wear for all tires. The first
rotation is the most
important. Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as
soon as possible, check for
proper tire inflation
pressure, and check for
damaged tires or wheels.
If the unusual wear
continues after the
rotation, check the wheel
alignment. See When It Is
Time for New Tires
0349
and Wheel Replacement
0 354.
Use this rotation pattern
when rotating the tires. Adjust the front and rear
tires to the recommended
inflation pressure on the
Tire and Loading
Information label after the
tires have been rotated.
See Tire Pressure
0342
and Vehicle Load Limits
0 202.
Reset the Tire Pressure
Monitor System. See Tire
Pressure Monitor
Operation 0344.
Check that all wheel nuts
are properly tightened. See
“Wheel Nut Torque” under
Capacities and
Specifications 0383.
{Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel,
or on the parts to which it
is fastened, can cause
wheel nuts to become
loose over time. The
