Cargo Lamp
The cargo lamp is located in the rear of the
vehicle, above the liftgate opening. It comes on
automatically each time you open the doors, if the
interior lamp control is in the DOOR position.
There are two reading lamps located on the cargo
lamp. To turn either reading lamp on or off,
press the button located next to the lamp.
Battery Run-Down Protection
Your vehicle has a feature to help prevent you
from draining the battery, in case you accidentally
leave the interior or exterior lamps on. If the
interior lamps are left on while the ignition is in
OFF, they will automatically turn off after
10 minutes. If the exterior lamps are left on while
the ignition is in OFF with all doors and the
liftgate closed, they will automatically turn off after
10 minutes.
If your vehicle has less than 14 miles (24 km) on
the odometer, the battery saver will turn off
the lamps after only three minutes.If the interior lamps are turned off as a result of
the battery saver feature, they may be turned back
on by turning the interior lamp control to OFF
and then back to ON. The battery saver will not
turn the interior lamps off automatically after doing
this. They will have to be turned off manually.
Instrument Panel Switchbank
There is an instrument panel switchbank located
below the climate controls. It contains switches
or blanks that will vary with the options that are on
your vehicle.
The switches you may have are:
Rear Window Wiper/Washer. SeeWindshield
Washer on page 180.
Traction Disable. SeeTraction Control System
(TCS) on page 310.
Park Aid Disable. SeeUltrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA) on page 196.
Heated Seats. SeeHeated Seats on page 11.

Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both
miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour
(km/h). Your odometer shows how far your vehicle
has been driven, in either miles (used in the
United States) or kilometers (used in Canada).
However, a Canadian odometer will remain
in metric units only.
Your vehicle has a tamper-resistant odometer.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle
needs a new odometer installed. If the new one
can be set to the mileage total of the old odometer,
then that will be done. If it cannot, then it is set
at zero and a label must be put on the driver’s door
to show the old mileage reading when the new
odometer was installed.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Driver
Information Center (DIC), you may toggle the
odometer to display either miles, available only in
the United States, or kilometers. SeeDriver
Information Center (DIC) on page 235.
Trip Odometer
In addition to the standard odometer, the cluster
can also display a trip odometer. The display can
be toggled between the odometer and the trip
odometer by quickly pressing and releasing the
trip/reset button located to the right of the
temperature gage. The trip odometer will continue
to keep track of miles or kilometers driven even if
they are not currently displayed. A Canadian trip
odometer will remain in metric units only. To reset
the trip odometer to zero (0), push and hold the
trip/reset button for at least one and a half seconds,
but less than three seconds. The trip odometer that
is showing in the display will be reset.
213

Retro-Active Reset
The trip odometer has a feature called retro-active
reset. This feature can be used to set the trip
odometer to the number of miles or kilometers
driven since the ignition was last turned on. This
can be used if you forget to reset your trip odometer
at the beginning of a trip. To use the retro-active
reset feature, push and hold the trip/reset button for
at least ve seconds. The trip odometer will then
display the number of miles or kilometers driven
since the ignition was last turned on and you began
driving. If you use the retro-active reset feature after
you have started the vehicle, but before you begin
moving, the display will show the number of miles
or kilometers you drove during the last ignition
cycle. Once you begin driving, the trip odometer will
accumulate mileage. For example, if you have
driven 5.0 miles (8.0 km) since you started your
vehicle, and then activate the retro-active reset
feature, the display will show 5.0 miles (8.0 km). As
you drive, the display will then increase to 5.1 miles
(8.2 km), 5.2 miles (8.4 km), etc.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays
the engine speed in
revolutions per
minute (rpm).

TIRE PRESSURE:The check tire pressure
system can alert you to a large change in the
pressure of one tire. If the tire pressure is normal,
TIRE PRESSURE NORMAL will display. If the
tire pressure is low, LOW TIRE PRESSURE will
display. You must begin driving before the
system will detect a low tire pressure condition.
SeeCheck Tire Pressure System on page 414.
USE SET TO SELECT ENGLISH METRIC:You
can use this display to select English or metric.
Press the SET button to toggle between English or
metric. The DIC, the odometer, the trip odometer
and head-up display will change. A Canadian
odometer and trip odometer will remain in metric
units only.
OFF:No driver information will be displayed in
this mode. If the DIC is left in this mode for more
than three seconds, the display will turn off.
Press the MODE button to start the DIC.DIC Compass
Your vehicle has a compass in the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
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.

If you need to replace any of your wheels, wheel
bolts, or wheel nuts, replace them only with new
GM original equipment parts. This way, you will be
sure to have the right wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel
nuts for your vehicle.
{CAUTION:
Using the wrong replacement wheels,
wheel bolts, or wheel nuts on your vehicle
can be dangerous. It could affect the
braking and handling of your vehicle,
make your tires lose air and make you
lose control. You could have a collision
in which you or others could be injured.
Always use the correct wheel, wheel bolts,
and wheel nuts for replacement.Notice:The wrong wheel can also cause
problems with bearing life, brake cooling,
speedometer or odometer calibration, headlamp
aim, bumper height, vehicle ground clearance,
and tire or tire chain clearance to the body and
chassis.
SeeChanging a Flat Tire on page 428for more
information.Used Replacement Wheels
{CAUTION:
Putting a used wheel on your vehicle is
dangerous. You cannot know how it has
been used or how far it has been driven. It
could fail suddenly and cause a crash. If
you have to replace a wheel, use a new
GM original equipment wheel.
