2005 BUICK RANDEZVOUS instrument cluster

Instrument Panel Cluster
Your instrument panel cluster is designed to let you know at a glance how your vehicle is running. You’ll know how
fast you’re going, how much fuel you’re using, and many other things you’ll need to drive safely and economically. The
indicator warning lights and gages are explained on the following pages.

Message Center
The message center is located at the top of the
instrument panel cluster in between the tachometer and
speedometer. It gives you important safety and
maintenance facts.
Passenger Seatbelt Reminder
Message
If your vehicle is equipped
with the passenger
sensing system, this
message reminds the
passenger to buckle their
seatbelt.
This message will come on and a chime will sound
when the ignition is in run and the driver’s seatbelt is
buckled and the passenger’s seatbelt is not and
the passenger airbag is enabled, with a passenger
detected by the passenger sensing system.
Service Traction System Warning
Message
If your vehicle has the traction control system and this
message is displayed when you’re driving, there may be
a problem with your traction control system. Your
vehicle may need service.
When this message is displayed, the traction control
system will not limit wheel spin. Adjust your driving
accordingly.
If there’s an engine-related and brake system problem
that is specically related to traction control, the
traction control system will turn off and the warning
message will come on.
If the traction control system warning message comes
on and stays on for an extended period of time when the
system is turned on, your vehicle needs service.

Driver Information Center (DIC)
If your vehicle is equipped with the Driver Information
Center (DIC), the display is located on the instrument
panel cluster in the tachometer gage. The DIC will show
information about the vehicle and the surroundings.
The DIC is capable of displaying English or French. To
change the language, press and hold the MODE
button until the language you want is displayed. The
MODE button is located on the instrument panel, to the
left of the steering column. Release the button to set
your choice. SeeDIC Controls and Displays on
page 3-64to change the display from English to metric.
The DIC contains a compass display to show you
which direction the vehicle is driving.
Compass Variance
Compass variance is the difference between magnetic
north and geographic north. In some areas of the
country, the difference is great enough to cause the
compass to give false readings. If this occurs, the
compass must be recalibrated.
Compass Calibration
If the calibration required symbol, or C, appears in the
compass, you must manually put the compass into the
calibration mode. To enter this mode, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition on and press the MODE button
until CALIBRATE COMPASS displays.
2. Press and hold the SET button for longer than
three seconds. United States shown, Canada similar
