MOBIL 1® MOTOR OIL
Your XLR comes factory-filled with
Mobil 1 synthetic oil. XLR’s computer
system monitors the life of the oil to
inform you when it needs to be
changed. To view the remaining oil
life, press the Information button
repeatedly until OIL LIFE appears in
the DIC display.
The oil life monitor is programmed
to correspond to the attributes of
Mobil 1 synthetic oil. If you use
any motor oil other than Mobil 1
or equivalent synthetic oil, the oil
life monitoring system will not
be accurate.
Whenever your oil is changed, reset
the oil life monitor so it can calculate
when the next oil change is required.
PREMIUM FUEL
Your vehicle’s engine was designed
to use premium unleaded gasoline.
See your Owner Manual for
information on fuel use for your
particular vehicle.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR
The Tire Pressure Monitor alerts you
when a significant reduction in
pressure occurs in one or more of
your vehicle’s tires by illuminating
the (low tire pressure) warning
light on the instrument panel cluster.
The low tire pressure warning light
will remain on until you correct the
tire pressure.
A message may also appear on the
DIC (if equipped).
Correcting the Tire Pressure
When the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates, you must fill the
tire to the proper tire inflation
pressure (just as you must refuel the
vehicle when the low fuel warning
light illuminates). The Tire and
Loading Information label shows the
correct inflation pressure for the tires
when they’re cold. “Cold” means your
vehicle has been sitting for at least
three hours or driven no more than
one mile.
You can temporarily clear the DIC
message by acknowledging it with
your DIC controls. However, at the
next vehicle start-up, the DIC
message will reappear if the tire
pressure has not been corrected.
During cooler conditions, the low tire
pressure warning light may appear
when the vehicle is first started and
then turn off as you start to drive the
vehicle. This could be an early
indicator that your tire pressures are
getting low and need to be inflated
to the proper pressure.

replace normal monthly tire maintenance.
