Traction Control System (TCS)
Warning Light
Your vehicle is equipped
with a traction control
system warning light.
The traction control system warning light may come on
for the following reasons:
If you turn the system off by pressing the traction
control button. To turn the system back on, press
the button again. The warning light should go
off. SeeTraction Control System (TCS) on page 4-9
for more information.
If there’s a brake system problem that is speci cally
related to traction control, the traction control
system will turn off and the warning light will come
on. If your brakes begin to overheat, the traction
control system will turn off and the warning light
will come on until your brakes cool down.
If the traction control system is affected by an
engine-related problem, the system will turn off
and the warning light will come on.If the traction control system warning light comes on
and stays on for an extended period of time when the
system is turned on, your vehicle needs service.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
This gage shows the engine coolant temperature.
If the red gage lamp turns on, your engine is too hot!
It means that your engine coolant has overheated. If you
have been operating your vehicle under normal driving
conditions, you should pull off the road, stop your
vehicle and turn off the engine as soon as possible.
SeeEngine Overheating on page 5-24.

Highbeam On Light
This light will come on
when the high-beam
headlamps or the
Flash-to-Pass feature
is in use.
SeeHeadlamp High/Low-Beam Changer on page 3-8.
Fuel Gage
When the indicator nears empty, you still have a little
fuel left, but you should get more soon.Your fuel gage tells you about how much fuel you have
left when the ignition is on.
Here are four things some owners ask about. All these
things are normal and do not indicate that anything
is wrong with the fuel gage.
At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
It takes a little more (or less) fuel to ll up than the
gage reads. For example, the gage read half full,
but it took more (or less) than half of the tank’s
capacity to ll it.
The gage pointer may move while cornering,
braking or speeding up.
The gage may not indicate empty when the ignition
is turned off.
Low Fuel Warning Light
The light next to the fuel gage will come on brie y when
you are starting the engine.
This light comes on when the fuel tank is low on fuel.
To turn it off, add fuel to the fuel tank.

Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC).
All messages will appear in the DIC display located in
the instrument panel cluster, below the tachometer. The
DIC buttons are located on the center of the instrument
panel, below the center outlets.
The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. After a short
delay, the DIC will display WELCOME DRIVER (1 or 2)
if a personalized key 1 or 2 is used, and then the
information that was last displayed before the engine
was turned off.
The DIC displays the odometer, trip odometers, fuel
economy, trip computer, vehicle system information, and
compass display, if equipped. It also displays warning
messages if a system problem is detected. In addition,
the DIC displays phone numbers that are called
using the OnStar
®system, if equipped. SeeOnStar®
System on page 2-42.If equipped, the outside air temperature automatically
appears in the bottom right corner of the DIC display
when viewing all of the information screens, except for
the oil life screens. If the outside air temperature is
at or below 37°F (3°C), the temperature reading
will toggle between displaying the outside temperature
and the word ICE for two minutes. If there is a problem
with the system that controls the temperature display,
the letters OC (open circuit) or SC (short circuit)
will appear on the display. If this occurs, have the
vehicle serviced by your GM dealer.
The DIC also allows some features to be customized
or personalized, if equipped. SeeDIC Vehicle
Personalization (Uplevel Only) on page 3-68for more
information.
