trip odometer, display the desired trip odometer to be
reset then push and hold the button until the display
resets (approximately 2 seconds).
U.S. federal regulations require that upon transfer of
vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the purchaser the
correct mileage that the vehicle has been driven. There-
fore, if the odometer reading is changed during repair or
replacement, be sure to keep a record of the reading
before and after the service so that the correct mileage can
be determined.
16. Malfunction Indicator Light
This light is part of an onboard diagnostic
system called OBD that monitors emissions,
engine, and automatic transaxle control sys-
tems. The light will illuminate when the key is in the
ON/RUN position before engine start. If the bulb does
not come on when turning the key from OFF to
ON/RUN, have the condition checked promptly.
Certain conditions such as a loose or missing gas cap,
poor fuel quality, etc. may illuminate the light after
engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the lightstays on through several of your typical driving cycles. In
most situations the vehicle will drive normally and will
not require towing.
If the Malfunction Indicator Light flashes when the
engine is running, serious conditions may exist that
could lead to immediate loss of power or severe catalytic
converter damage. The vehicle should be serviced as
soon as possible if this occurs.
If this indicator comes on, the entire, PRNDL/ odometer,
display will brighten to FULL DAYTIME INTENSITY
and will not be dimmable.
17. Cruise Indicator — If Equipped
This indicator shows that the Speed Control
System is ON.
18. Odometer/Trip Odometer Reset Knob
Press this button to change the display from odometer to
either of the two trip odometer settings. Trip A or Trip B
(if equipped) will appear when in the trip odometer
mode. Push in and hold the button for two seconds to
reset the trip odometer to 0 miles or kilometers. The
odometer must be in trip mode to reset.

indicated by the Brake Warning Light which will turn on
when the brake fluid level in the master cylinder has
dropped below a specified level.
The light will remain on until the cause is corrected.
NOTE:The light may flash momentarily during sharp
cornering maneuvers which change fluid level condi-
tions. The vehicle should have service performed, and
the brake fluid level checked.
If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is neces-
sary.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the brake light on is danger-
ous. Part of the brake system may have failed. It will
take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have an
accident. Have the vehicle checked immediately.
Vehicles equipped with Anti-Lock brakes (ABS), are also
equipped with Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD).In the event of an EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light
will turn on along with the ABS Light. Immediate repair
to the ABS system is required.
The operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked
by turning the ignition switch from the OFF position to
the ON position. The light should illuminate for approxi-
mately two seconds. The light should then turn off unless
the parking brake is applied or a brake fault is detected.
If the light does not illuminate, have the light inspected
by an authorized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking brake is
applied with the ignition switch in the ON position.
NOTE:This light shows only that the parking brake is
applied. It does not show the degree of brake application.

Trip Functions
MENU / STEP Button
Press and release the MENU / STEP button
(located near the radio) until one of the follow-
ing Trip Functions displays in the EVIC:
•Average Fuel Economy
•Distance To Empty
•Elapsed Time
•Display Units of Measure in
Press the STEP button to cycle through all the Trip
Computer functions.
The Trip Functions mode displays the following information:
•Average Fuel Economy
Shows the average fuel economy since the last reset.
When the fuel economy is reset, the display will read,
“RESET” or show dashes for two seconds. Then, the
history information will be erased, and the averaging will
continue from the last fuel average reading before the
reset.
•Distance To Empty (DTE)
Shows the estimated distance that can be traveled with
the fuel remaining in the tank. This estimated distance is
determined by a weighted average of the instantaneous
and average fuel economy, according to the current fuel
tank level. DTE cannot be reset through the RESET
button.

NOTE:Significant changes in driving style or vehicle
loading will greatly affect the actual drivable distance of
the vehicle, regardless of the DTE displayed value.
•When the DTE value is less than 30 miles (48 km)
estimated driving distance, the DTE display will
change to a text display ofLOW FUEL.This display
will continue until the vehicle runs out of fuel. Adding
a significant amount of fuel to the vehicle will turn off
theLOW FUELtext and a new DTE value will
display.
•Elapsed Time
Shows the total elapsed time of travel since the last reset
when the ignition switch is in the ACC position. Elapsed
time will increment when the ignition switch is in the ON
or START position.
•Display Units of Measure in:
To make your selection, press and release the RESET
button until “US” or “METRIC” appears.
To Reset The Display
Pressing and holding the RESET button once
will clear the function currently being dis-
played. Reset will only occur if a resettable
function is currently being displayed. To reset
all resettable functions, press and release the
RESET button a second time within 3 seconds

Compass Display
COMPASS Button
The compass readings indicate the direction
the vehicle is facing. Press and release the
compass button to display one of eight com-
pass readings and the outside temperature. The
RESET button is used in conjunction with the MENU /
STEP buttons to navigate and select Menu Preferences.

is calibrated. Calibrate the compass by completing one or
more 360° turns (in an area free from large metal or
metallic objects) until the “FLASH THE CAL” message
displayed in the EVIC turns off. The compass will now
function normally.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic, inaccurate, or abnormal,
you may wish to calibrate the compass manually. Prior to
calibrating the compass, make sure the proper zone is
selected. Continue to calibrate the compass manually
using the following steps:
1. Start the engine and leave the transmission selector in
PARK, in order to enter the EVIC Programming Menus.
2. Press the Step Button Several Times until “Personal
Settings” is displayed in the EVIC window.
3. Once in “Personal Settings,” Press the STEP button
until “Calibrate Compass Yes” displays in the EVIC
window. Press and release the RESET Button and the
“CAL” indicator will come on solid.4. Drive the vehicle slowly, completing one or more
circles (in an area free from large metal or metallic
objects) until the “CAL” message turns off. The compass
will now function normally.
Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between magnetic
North and Geographic North. In some areas of the
country, the difference between magnetic and geographic
North is great enough to cause the compass to give false
readings. If this occurs, the compass variance must be set
using the following procedure:
NOTE:Magnetic materials and cell phones should be
kept away from the top of the Instrument Panel. This is
where the compass sensor is located.

Procedure to Update the Variance:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position while
leaving the transmission selector in PARK.
2. Press the Step Button Several Times until “Personal
Settings” is displayed in the EVIC window.
3. Once in “Personal Settings,” Press the STEP button
until “Compass Variance” and the current value displays
in the EVIC window.
4. Press and release the RESET Button to increment the
Variance Value by one, (one button press per update),
until the proper variance zone is selected according to the
map.
NOTE:The Variance values will wrap around from 15
back to 1. The Default Variance is Zone 8.
5. Press and release the RESET button to exit. Press the
STEP button if you wish to calibrate the compass manu-
ally (see: “Manual Compass Calibration” listed above).
