Vehicle Information Menu Item
Descriptions
The following paragraphs contain a more detailed
description of each menu item:
OUTSIDE TEMP:If you select this item, the current
outside temperature is displayed at the top of the
screen. It will be in either degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or
degrees Celsius (°C) depending upon whether the
system is set for English or metric units. If you wish to
change the units, seeDIC Main Menu on page 3-55.
MI TRIP A and B (KM TRIP A and B):For information
on the trip odometers, seeTrip Odometers on
page 3-36.
MILES RANGE (KM RANGE):If you select this item,
the approximate number of remaining miles or
kilometers you can drive without refueling is displayed.
This estimate is based on the current driving conditions
and will change if the driving conditions change. For
example, if you are driving in traffic making frequent
stops, the display may read one number, but if you enter
the freeway, the number may change even though
you still have the same amount of gas in the gas tank.
This is because different driving conditions produce
different fuel economies. Generally, freeway driving
produces better fuel economy than city driving.
3-51

If your vehicle is low on fuel, the Fuel Level Low
message will be displayed. See “Fuel Level Low” under
DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-59for more
information.
MPG AVG (L/100 KM AVG):If you select this item, the
approximate average miles per gallon (mpg) or liters
per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) is displayed. This number
is calculated based on the number of mpg (L/100 km)
recorded since the last time this menu item was reset.
To reset the MPG AVG (L/100 KM AVG), press the CLR
button located to the right of the screen. The display
will return to zero.
MPG INST (L/100 KM INST):If you select this item,
the current fuel economy is displayed. This number
re ects only the fuel economy that the vehicle has right
now and will change frequently as driving conditions
change. Unlike average fuel economy, this menu item
cannot be reset.GAL FUEL USED (L FUEL USED):If you select this
item, the number of gallons or liters of fuel used
since the last reset of this menu item is displayed.
To reset GAL FUEL USED (L FUEL USED), press the
CLR button located to the right of the screen. The
display will return to zero.
AVG MPH (AVG KM/H):If you select this item, the
average speed of the vehicle is displayed in miles per
hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h). This average
is calculated based on the various vehicle speeds
recorded since the last reset of this menu item.
To reset AVG MPH (AVG KM/H), press the CLR button
located to the right of the screen. The display will
return to zero.
3-52

TIMER:If you select this item, a timing feature is
displayed. The timer functions like a stopwatch in that
you can record the time it takes to travel from one point
to another.
To turn on the timer, press the CLR button located to
the right of the screen once. The display will read
00:00:00 TIMER ON and begin counting.
To turn off the timer, press the CLR button again. When
the timer is off, the display will show the timer value
and TIMER OFF. The timing feature will stop.
To reset the timer, turn off the timer and then press and
hold the CLR button. The display will return to zero.
BATTERY VOLTS:If you select this item, the current
battery voltage is displayed. If the voltage is in the
normal range, the display will have OK after it.
For example, the display may read 13.2 BATTERY
VOLTS OK.
If there is a problem with the battery charging system,
there are four possible DIC messages that may be
displayed. SeeDIC Warnings and Messages on
page 3-59for more information.ENGINE OIL LIFE:If you select this item, the
percentage of remaining oil life is displayed. If you see
99% ENGINE OIL LIFE on the display, that means
that 99% of the current oil life remains.
When the oil life is depleted, the Change Engine Oil
message will appear on the display. See your GM dealer
for service. In addition to the engine oil life system
monitoring the oil life, additional maintenance is
recommended in the Maintenance Schedule in this
manual. SeeScheduled Maintenance on page 6-4and
Engine Oil on page 5-16for more information.
When you reset the Change Engine Oil message by
clearing it from the display, you still must reset the
engine oil life system separately. For more information
on resetting the engine oil life system, see “How to
Reset the Engine Oil Life System and the Oil Life
Indicator” underEngine Oil Life System on page 5-19.If
you clear the Change Engine Oil message from the
display, it will not re-appear.
