Oil Life Indicator
Your Cadillac has a Driver Information Cente.r with an Oil Change
Indicator feature. This tclls you when
you
need to change your engine oil.
It's based upon the engine oil temperatures and your driving patterns.

I
T o see the display,
press the Information
button several times
until
"
OTL LIFE
INDEX" appears.
You'll see how much oil life you have left, as a percentage. So, if you see
"95 OIL LIFE INDEX," for example, that means that the way you're
driving your car, 95% of your current oil life is still left.
The "OIL LIFE INDEX" may say to change the oil sooner than your
maintenance schedule. This can happen if driving conditions, such as
short trips in cold weather, cause shorter oil life. Always keep
a
written
record of the mileage and date when you last changed your oil. For more
information on when to change your oil, see the "Maintenance
Schedule."
If you see "CHANGE OIL SOON,"
it
means that you have less than 10%.
of your 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 (certainly within 200 more miles
[320 km]).
