Fuel Range
Press the trip/fuel button until FUEL RANGE
displays. This display shows the approximate
number of remaining miles (mi) or kilometers (km)
the vehicle can be driven without refueling.
The display will show LOW if the fuel level is low.
The fuel range estimate is based on an average
of the vehicle’s fuel economy over recent
driving history and the amount of fuel remaining in
the fuel tank. This estimate will change if driving
conditions change. For example, if driving in traffic
and making frequent stops, this display may
read one number, but if the vehicle is driven on a
freeway, the number may change even though
the same amount of fuel is in the fuel tank. This is
because different driving conditions produce
different fuel economies. Generally, freeway
driving produces better fuel economy than city
driving. Fuel range cannot be reset.
Average Economy
Press the trip/fuel button until AVG ECONOMY
displays. This display shows the approximate
average miles per gallon (mpg) or liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km). 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 AVG ECONOMY, press and
hold the set/reset button.
Fuel Used
Press the trip/fuel button until FUEL USED
displays. This display shows the number of
gallons (gal) or liters (L) of fuel used since the last
reset of this menu item. To reset the fuel used
information, press and hold the set/reset button
while FUEL USED is displayed.

Timer
Press the trip/fuel button until TIMER displays.
This display can be used as a timer.
To start the timer, press the set/reset button while
TIMER is displayed. The display will show the
amount of time that has passed since the timer was
last reset, not including time the ignition is off. Time
will continue to be counted as long as the ignition is
on, even if another display is being shown on the
DIC. The timer will record up to 99 hours,
59 minutes and 59 seconds (99:59:59) after which
the display will return to zero.
To stop the timer, press the set/reset button brie y
while TIMER is displayed.
To reset the timer to zero, press and hold the
set/reset button while TIMER is displayed.
Transmission Temperature
Press the trip/fuel button until TRANS TEMP
displays. This display shows the temperature of
the automatic transmission uid in either degrees
Fahrenheit (°F) or degrees Celsius (°C).
Instantaneous Economy and Displacement
on Demand™ (DoD™) Indicator
If your vehicle has this display, press the trip/fuel
button until INST ECONOMY V8 MODE
displays. This display shows the current fuel
economy at a particular moment and will change
frequently as driving conditions change. This
display shows the instantaneous fuel economy in
miles per gallon (mpg) or liters per 100 kilometers
(L/100 km). Unlike average economy, this
screen cannot be reset.
A Displacement on Demand™ (DoD™) indicator
will display on the right side of the DIC, while
INST ECONOMY displays on the left side.
DoD™ allows the engine to operate on either four
or eight cylinders, depending on your driving
demands. When DoD™ is active, V4 MODE will
display on the DIC. When DoD™ is inactive,
V8 MODE will display. SeeDisplacement
on Demand™ (DoD™) on page 141for more
information.
Blank Display
This display shows no information.

Vehicle Information Menu Items
T
(Vehicle Information):Press this button to
scroll through the following menu items:
Oil Life
Press the vehicle information button until OIL LIFE
REMAINING displays. This display shows an
estimate of the oil’s remaining useful life. If you
see 99% OIL LIFE REMAINING on the display,
that means 99% of the current oil life remains.
The engine oil life system will alert you to change
your oil on a schedule consistent with your
driving conditions.
When the remaining oil life is low, the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL SOON message will appear on the
display. See “CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON” under
DIC Warnings and Messages on page 254. You
should change your oil as soon as you can. See
Engine Oil on page 438. 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 555for more information.Remember, you must reset the OIL LIFE display
yourself after each oil change. It will not reset
itself. Also, be careful not to reset the OIL LIFE
display accidentally at any time other than
when the oil has just been changed. It cannot be
reset accurately until the next oil change. To
reset the engine oil life system, seeEngine Oil
Life System on page 441.
Units
Press the vehicle information button until UNITS
displays. This display allows you to select between
English or Metric units of measurement. Once in
this display, press the set/reset button to select
between ENGLISH or METRIC units. All of
the vehicle information will then be displayed in
the unit of measurement selected.
Tire Pressure
If your vehicle has a Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM)
system, the pressure for each tire can be viewed in
the DIC. The tire pressure will be shown in either
pounds per square inch (psi) or kilopascals (kPa).
Press the vehicle information button until the DIC
displays FRONT TIRES PSI (kPa) LEFT ##
RIGHT ##. Press the vehicle information button
again until the DIC displays REAR TIRES PSI (kPa)
LEFT ## RIGHT ##.
