but the steering column is
still locked. It is normal for
the column to be locked
during a remote start, but
the column should unlock
after the brake pedal is
pressed and the vehicle is
started. No message will
display during a remote
start.
.A message that the steering
wheel must be turned and
the vehicle must be started
again indicates that the
column lock mechanism is
bound, the column locking
device was unable to unlock
the steering column, and thevehicle did not start. If this
happens, immediately turn
the steering wheel from side
to side to unbind the column
lock. If this does not unlock

348 Vehicle Care
Engine Oil Life
System
When to Change
Engine Oil
This vehicle has a computer
system that indicates when to
change the engine oil and
filter. This is based on a
combination of factors which
include engine revolutions,
engine temperature, and miles
driven. Based on driving
conditions, the mileage at
which an oil change is
indicated can vary
considerably. For the oil life
system to work properly, the
system must be reset every
time the oil is changed.
When the system has
calculated that oil life has been
diminished, it indicates that an
oil change is necessary.
A CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON message comes on.
Change the oil as soon as
possible within the next
1 000 km (600 mi). It ispossible that, if driving under
the best conditions, the oil life
system might indicate that an
oil change is not necessary for
up to a year. The engine oil
and filter must be changed at
least once a year and at this
time the system must be
reset. Your dealer has trained
service people who will
perform this work and reset
the system. It is also important
to check the oil regularly over
the course of an oil drain
interval and keep it at the
proper level.
If the system is ever reset
accidentally, the oil must be
changed at 5 000 km
(3,000 mi) since the last oil
change. Remember to reset
the oil life system whenever
the oil is changed.
How to Reset the Engine
Oil Life System
Reset the system whenever
the engine oil is changed so
that the system can calculate
the next engine oil change. To
reset the system:
1. Using the DIC controls on the right side of the
steering wheel, display
REMAINING OIL LIFE on
the DIC. See Driver
Information Center (DIC)
0139. When remaining oil
life is low, the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the
display.
2. Press SEL on the DIC controls and hold SEL
down for a few seconds to
clear the CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON message and
reset the oil life at 100%.
Be careful not to reset the
oil life display accidentally
at any time other than
after the oil is changed.

Maintenance
Schedule
Tire Rotation and
Required Services Every
12 000 km (7,500 mi)
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
Tires0394 and
Wheel Replacement 0399.

CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message displays, have the
engine oil and filter changed

600 mi. If driven under the
best conditions, the engine
oil life system may not
indicate the need for vehicle
service for up to a year. The
engine oil and filter must be
changed at least once a year
and the oil life system must
be reset. Your trained dealer
technician can perform this
work. If the engine oil life
system is reset accidentally,
service the vehicle within
5 000 km/3,000 mi since the
last service. Reset the oil life system when the oil is
changed. See Engine Oil Life
System

Vehicle Data
Recording and
Privacy
The vehicle has a number of
computers that record
information about the vehicle’s
performance and how it is
driven or used. For example,the vehicle uses computer
modules to monitor and
control engine and
transmission performance, to
monitor the conditions for
airbag deployment and deploy
them in a crash, and,
if equipped, to provide antilock
braking to help the driver
control the vehicle. These
modules may store data to
help the dealer technician
service the vehicle or to help
GM improve safety or
features. Some modules may
also store data about how the
vehicle is operated, such as
rate of fuel consumption or
average speed. These
modules may retain personal
preferences, such as radio
presets, seat positions, and
temperature settings.
