1. Turn the pressure capslowly counterclockwise.
If a hiss is heard, wait for
that to stop. A hiss means
there is still some
pressure left.
2. Keep turning the pressure cap slowly and remove it.
3. If topping off the level inthe coolant surge tank, add
the proper mixture until
the level reaches the mark
on the front of the tank
and replace the cap.
Operate the vehicle.
Repeat steps 1–3, as
necessary.
If filling the system (such
as after servicing), follow
the Automatic Coolant
Service Fill Instructions.
Caution
If the pressure cap is not
tightly installed, coolant loss
and engine damage may
occur. Be sure the cap is
properly and tightly secured.
Automatic Coolant
Service Fill Instructions
This feature assists in filling
and removing air from the
cooling system after service of
components or when coolant
is added after being too low. To activate the fill and air
removal process:
1. With a cold system, add coolant to the indicated

of the coolant in the surge
tank. If the tank empties, turn
the ignition off, carefully
remove the surge tank cap,
refill to the indicated mark, and
repeat Steps 3-6. The fill and
air removal process will run for
approximately 10 minutes.
Engine Overheating
The vehicle has several
indicators to warn of the
engine overheating.
There is an engine coolant
temperature gauge on the
instrument cluster. See Engine
Coolant Temperature Gauge
0123. The vehicle may also
display a message on the
Driver Information
Center (DIC).
If the decision is made not to
lift the hood when this
warning appears, get service
help right away. See Roadside
Assistance Program 0439. If the decision is made to lift
the hood, make sure the
vehicle is parked on a level
surface. Then check to see if
the engine cooling fan is
running. If the engine is
overheating, the fan should be
running. If it is not, do not
continue to run the engine.
Have the vehicle serviced.
Caution

little, can cause them to
come out at high speed and
you could be burned. Never
turn the cap when the
cooling system, including the
pressure cap, is hot. Wait for
the cooling system and
pressure cap to cool.
If No Steam Is Coming
from the Engine
Compartment
If an engine overheat warning
is displayed but no steam can
be seen or heard, the problem
may not be too serious.

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 replacement
or alternate tires or wheels on
the vehicle that prevent theTPMS 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
0376.
See Radio Frequency
Statement 0446.
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 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
0242.
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 at each ignition cycle
until the tires are inflated to
the correct inflation pressure.

Cadillac XT4 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
16412876) - 2023 - CRC - 3/25/22
Vehicle Care 377
Using the DIC, tire pressure
levels can be viewed. For
additional information and
details about the DIC
operation and displays see
Driver Information Center
(DIC)0136.
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, attached to
your vehicle, shows the size of
the original equipment tires
and the correct inflation
pressure for the tires when
they are cold. See Vehicle
Load Limits 0242, for an
example of the Tire and
Loading Information label and
its location. Also see Tire
Pressure 0372. The TPMS can warn about a
low tire pressure condition but
it does not replace normal tire
maintenance. See Tire
Inspection
0380, Tire
Rotation 0381, and Tires
0 364.
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.
Factory-installed Tire Inflator
Kits use a GM approved liquid
tire sealant. Using
non-approved tire sealants
could damage the TPMS sensors. See Tire Sealant and
Compressor Kit
0390 for
information regarding the
inflator kit materials and
instructions.
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 ignition cycle.
A DIC warning message also
displays. The malfunction light
and DIC warning message
come on at each ignition cycle
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

Cadillac XT4 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
16412876) - 2023 - CRC - 3/25/22
Vehicle Care 379
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
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
Each TPMS sensor has a
unique identification code. The
identification code needs to be
matched to a new tire/wheel
position after rotating the
vehicle’s tires or replacing one or more of the TPMS sensors.
The TPMS sensor matching
process should also be
performed after replacing a
spare tire with a road tire
containing the TPMS sensor.
The malfunction light and the
DIC message should go off at
the next ignition cycle. The
sensors are matched to the
tire/wheel positions, using a
TPMS relearn tool, in the
following order: driver side
front tire, passenger side front
tire, passenger side rear tire,
and driver side rear. See your
dealer for service or to
purchase a relearn tool.
A TPMS relearn tool can also
be purchased. See Tire
Pressure Monitor Sensor
Activation Tool at www.
gmtoolsandequipment.com or
call 1-800-GM TOOLS
(1-800-468-6657).
There are two minutes to
match the first tire/wheel
position, and five minutes
overall to match all four tire/

16412876) - 2023 - CRC - 3/25/22
380 Vehicle Care
wheel positions. If it takes
longer, the matching process
stops and must be restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching
process is:1. Set the parking brake.
2. Place the vehicle in Service Mode. See Ignition
Positions 0247.
3. Make sure the Tire Pressure info display
option is turned on. The
info displays on the DIC
can be turned on and off
through the Options menu.
See Driver Information
Center (DIC) 0136.
4. Use the five-way DIC control on the right side of
the steering wheel to scroll
to the Tire Pressure
screen under the DIC info
page. See Driver
Information Center (DIC)
0136.
5. Press and hold the thumbwheel in the center
of the five-way DIC control. The horn sounds twice to
signal the receiver is in
relearn mode and the TIRE
LEARNING ACTIVE
message displays on the
DIC screen.
6. Start with the driver side front tire.
7. Place the relearn tool against the tire sidewall,
near the valve stem. Then
press the button to
activate the TPMS sensor.
A horn chirp confirms that
the sensor identification
code has been matched to
this tire and wheel
position.
8. Proceed to the passenger side front tire, and repeat
Step 7.
9. Proceed to the passenger side rear tire, and repeat
Step 7.
10. Proceed to the driver side rear tire, and repeat
Step 7. The horn sounds
two times to indicate the
sensor identification code has been matched to the
driver side rear tire, and
the TPMS sensor matching
process is no longer active.
The TIRE LEARNING
ACTIVE message on the
DIC display screen
goes off.
11. Turn the vehicle off.
12. Set all four tires to the recommended air pressure
level as indicated on the
Tire and Loading
Information label.
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.
