Here are some things that some owners ask about.
None of these show a problem with your fuel gage:
At the service station, the gas pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
It takes more (or less) fuel to ll up than the gage
indicated. For example, the gage may have
indicated half full, but it took more (or less) than
half the tank’s capacity to ll it.
The gage moves up a little when you turn a corner,
speed up or make a hard stop.
The gage doesn’t go back to empty when you turn
off the ignition.
Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Driver Information
Center (DIC). The DIC will display information about
how your vehicle is functioning, as well as warning
messages if a system problem is detected. This feature
also allows two different drivers to store and recall
their own personal choice settings. SeeDIC Controls
and Displays on page 3-47for more information.
DIC Controls and Displays
When you turn the ignition on, the DIC will display your
DRIVER NUMBER. You can have your GM dealer
program your name to appear on this display line. See
your GM dealer for more information.
The system will then perform a status check and display
any messages if a problem is detected. If there are
no problems detected, the display will return to the mode
selected by that driver the last time the ignition was
turned off.
