7.Start with the driver side front tire.

8.Remove the valve cap from the valve cap stem. Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing or decreasing the tire's air pressure for five seconds, or until a horn chirp sounds. The horn chirp, which may take up to

30 seconds to sound, confirms that the sensor identification code has been matched to this tire and wheel position.

12.Press STOP to turn the ignition off.

13.Set all four tires to the recommended air pressure level as indicated on the Tire and Loading Information label.

Tire Inspection

We recommend that you regularly inspect your vehicle's tires, including the spare tire, if the vehicle has one, for signs of wear or damage. See When It

Is Time for New Tires on

page 9‑68 for more information.

Tire Rotation

Tires should be rotated every 8 000 to 13 000 km (5,000 to 8,000 miles). See Scheduled Maintenance on page 10‑2.

The purpose of a regular tire rotation is to achieve a uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. This will ensure that the vehicle continues to perform most like it did when the tires were new.

2010 specifications

In 2010, Cadillac marked a significant year with the introduction of models that blended luxury, performance, and advanced technology. Known for its American heritage and bold design, Cadillac cemented its reputation in the luxury automotive market with several innovative features in its lineup.

One of the most prominent models in 2010 was the Cadillac SRX, a midsize luxury crossover SUV. The SRX was lauded for its striking exterior design, which featured a bold grille, sharp lines, and an aggressive stance. Under the hood, the SRX was equipped with a range of powerful engine options, including a robust 3.0-liter V6 engine that provided a smooth yet dynamic driving experience. For those seeking even more performance, an optional 2.8-liter turbocharged V6 offered increased power and responsiveness.

A notable feature of the 2010 SRX was its focus on technology and connectivity. Cadillac’s CUE (Cadillac User Experience) system was a standout, featuring an advanced touchscreen interface that allowed drivers to access navigation, entertainment, and communication controls seamlessly. Integration with smartphones became increasingly important, and the SRX came with features like Bluetooth connectivity and USB ports to ensure compatibility with various devices.

Another highlight of Cadillac's 2010 lineup was the CTS sedan, which combined luxury with sportiness. The CTS was celebrated for its precise handling and powerful performance, thanks in part to its available 3.6-liter V6 engine and the sport-tuned CTS-V variant, which boasted a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 producing staggering horsepower. This blend of performance and luxury was complemented by an upscale interior, featuring high-quality materials, comfortable seating, and sophisticated design.

Safety was also a priority for Cadillac in 2010. The brand equipped its vehicles with advanced safety features such as stability control, numerous airbags, and optional driver-assistance technologies like blind spot monitoring and rear parking assist, providing peace of mind for drivers and passengers alike.

Overall, the 2010 Cadillac lineup exemplified the brand’s commitment to luxury, innovation, and performance. With a focus on integrating advanced technology and delivering an engaging driving experience, Cadillac continued to establish itself as a leader in the luxury automobile market.
