Cadillac 2006 CTS-V Automobile User Manual


 
Check Engine Oil Pressure Message
Your vehicle may have this
feature. When you see this
flashing symbol, the
engine oil pressure is low.
To acknowledge this warning, press either button on the
outboard switch on the left spoke of the steering wheel.
After you press this button, the warning will redisplay
every 10 minutes until the pressure returns to the normal
operating range. Oil pressure should be 20 to 80 psi
(140 to 550 kPa). In certain situations such as long,
extended idles on hot days, it could read as low as
6 psi (40 kPa) and still be considered normal. It may
vary with engine speed, outside temperature and
oil viscosity. This warning should correspond with the
Oil Pressure Light. See Oil Pressure Light on page 3-44
for more information.
Oil Temperature Warning Message
When you see this flashing
symbol, the engine oil
temperature is high.
To acknowledge this warning press either button on the
outboard switch on the left spoke of the steering wheel.
After you press a button, the warning will redisplay
every 10 minutes until the temperature returns to the
normal operating range. Driving aggressively or driving
on long hills can cause the engine oil temperature to
be higher than normal. If this warning is displayed during
normal vehicle operation on flat roads, your vehicle may
need service. See your GM dealer for an inspection.
See Engine Oil on page 5-16 for more information.
