Overhead Console
The front overhead console has reading
lights, a center dome light, a compass
and outside temperature display, and
storage compartments-including one
for your garage door opener and one for
sunglasses.
Temperature and Compass
Display
The outside air temperature and the
compass are displayed at the front
of
the overhead console. The control
switches are located to the left
of the
display.
Turn the display on or
off by pressing
the
ON/OFF switch. Display the
temperature in either degrees
Fahrenheit (English)
or Celsius (metric)
by pressing the
US/MET switch.
Before you turn on the ignition and move
the vehicle, the temperature indicated
will be the last outside temperature
recorded with the ignition on. If
the outside temperature is
37°F (3°C)
or lower when you turn on the ignition,
ICE will appear on the display. It's a
caution to the driver that road
conditions may be icy, and that
appropriate precautions should be
taken.
Compass Calibration:
The compass is self-calibrating, so it
does not need to be manually set.
However, when your Bravada is new,
the compass may function erratically.
If
it does, CAL (Calibration) will appear
on the display.
To correct the problem,
drive in a complete
360" circle three
times, and the compass will function
normally.

I Warning Lights, Gages and
Indicators
This section describes the warning
lights and gages that may be on your
vehicle. The pictures will help you
locate them.
Warning lights and gages can signal that
something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive
repair or replacement. Paying attention
to your warning lights and gages could
also save you or others from injury.
Warning lights go on when there may
be or is a problem with one of your
vehicle's functions.
As you will see in
the details on the next few pages, some
warning lights come on briefly when
you turn the ignition key just to let you
know they're working.
If you are
familiar with this section, you should
not be alarmed when this happens. Gages
can indicate when there may be
or is a problem with one of your
vehicle's functions. Often gages and
warning lights work together to let you
know when there's a problem with
your vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes
on and stays on when you are driving,
or when one of the gages shows there
may be a problem, check the section
that tells you what to do about it.
Please follow the manual's advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be costly
-
and even dangerous. So please get to
know your warning lights and gages.
They're a big help.
