Speedometer and Odometer
The speedometer lets you see your speed in
both miles per hour (mph) and kilometers
per hour (km/h).
The odometer shows how far your vehicle
has been driven, in either miles (used in the
United States) or kilometers (used in Canada).
The odometer mileage can be checked without
the vehicle running. Press the trip stem located
on the instrument panel cluster.
If your vehicle needs a new odometer installed,
the new one will be set to the correct mileage
total of the old odometer.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer can tell you how far your
vehicle has been driven since you last set the
trip odometer to zero.
The odometer works together with the Driver
Information Center (DIC). You can set a Trip A
and Trip B odometer. See “Trip Information”
underDIC Operation and Displays on page 221.
The odometer mileage can be checked without
the vehicle running. Press the trip stem on
the instrument panel cluster.

Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle may have this feature. The Driver
Information Center (DIC) display is located
on the instrument panel cluster, below the
speedometer. If your vehicle has DIC buttons,
they are located on the steering wheel.
The DIC can display information such as the
trip odometer, fuel economy, customization
features, and warning/status messages.
If your vehicle does not have DIC steering wheel
buttons, you will not have all of the features
listed. Scroll through the odometer and trip
odometer by pressing the trip odometer reset
stem located on the instrument panel cluster.
Turn off, or acknowledge, DIC messages
by pressing the trip odometer reset stem.
SeeSpeedometer and Odometer on page 200

After a short delay the DIC will display the
information that was last displayed before the
engine was turned off.

will appear on the display. Pressing the trip
stem will acknowledge any warning or service
messages. Pressing any of the DIC steering
wheel buttons — trip information, fuel information,
customization, or select button — will also
acknowledge any warnings or service messages.
You should take any message that appears
on the display seriously and remember that
clearing the message will only make the
message disappear, not correct the problem.
The DIC has different modes which can be

and select. The button functions are detailed
in the following pages.

DIC Warnings and Messages
Messages are displayed on the DIC to notify the
driver that the status of the vehicle has changed
and that some action may be needed to correct
the condition. Multiple messages may appear
one after another.
Some messages may not require immediate
action. Press any of the DIC buttons on the
steering wheel or the trip odometer reset stem
on the instrument panel cluster to acknowledge
that you received the messages and to clear
them from the display.
Some messages cannot be cleared from the
display because they are more urgent. These
messages require action before they can be
removed from the DIC display. Take any
messages that appear on the display seriously
and remember that clearing the messages will
only make the messages disappear, not correct
the problem.
The following are the possible messages that can
be displayed and some information about them.

Your dealer/retailer will know the kind of wheel
you need.
Each new wheel should have the same
load-carrying capacity, diameter, width, offset and
be mounted the same way as the one it replaces.
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 474for 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.
