Warning Light
For vehicles with
the Antilock Brake
System (ABS), this light
will come on briey when
you start the engine.
That is normal. If the light does not come on then, have it

safely possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the
engine again to reset the system. If the ABS light still
stays on, or comes on again while you are driving,
your vehicle needs service. If the regular brake system
warning light is not on, you still have brakes, but you do
not have antilock brakes. If the regular brake system
warning light is also on, you do not have antilock brakes
and there is a problem with your regular brakes.

Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC).
All messages appear in the DIC display located in the
instrument panel cluster, below the tachometer. The DIC
buttons are located on the center of the instrument
panel, below the center outlets.
The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. After a short
delay, the DIC displays WELCOME DRIVER (1 or 2)
if a personalized key 1 or 2 is used, and then the
information that was last displayed before the engine
was turned off. The driver number also corresponds
to the numbers, 1 or 2, on the back of the remote
keyless entry transmitters.
The DIC displays the odometer, trip odometers, fuel
economy, trip computer, vehicle system information, and
compass display, if equipped. It also displays warning
messages if a system problem is detected. In addition,
the DIC displays phone numbers that are called using the
OnStar
®system, if equipped. SeeOnStar®System on
page 2-47.On some vehicles, the outside air temperature
automatically appears in the bottom right corner
of the DIC display when viewing all of the information
screens, except for the oil life screens. If the outside air
temperature is at or below 37°F (3°C), the temperature
reading will toggle between displaying the outside
temperature and the word ICE for two minutes. If there is
a problem with the system that controls the temperature
display, the letters OC (open circuit) or SC (short circuit)
will appear on the display. If this occurs, have the vehicle
serviced by your dealer/retailer.

schedule consistent with your driving conditions.
When the remaining oil life is low, the CHANGE OIL
SOON message will appear on the display. You should
change the oil as soon as possible. SeeEngine Oil on

after each oil change. It will not reset itself. Also,
be careful not to reset the OIL LIFE accidentally at any
time other than when the oil has just been changed.

Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
Vehicles with a rear seat audio (RSA) system allows
rear seat passengers to listen to and control any of
the following audio sources: AM/FM tuner, front
CD player, and XM™ Satellite Radio Service
(if equipped). However, the rear seat passengers can
only control the sources that the front seat passengers
are not listening to. For example, rear seat passengers
can listen to a CD in the front radio and control it
while the driver listens to the radio through the front
speakers. The rear seat passengers have control of
the volume for each set of headphones.
The front seat audio controls always have priority over
the RSA controls. If the front seat passengers switch
the source for the main radio to a remote source,
the RSA is not able to control the remote source.
You can operate the RSA when the main radio is off.
The DVD or auxiliary device are always be available on
channel (CHA or CH1) of the wireless headphones. All
other RSA sources are available on channel (CHB or
CH2) of the wireless headphones, as well as the wired
headphones. If the RSA is off, the wired headphones
provide DVD or auxiliary device audio. The rear seat
passengers are not able to listen to XM™, on channel
(CHB or CH2), if the front passenger is listening to a
DVD or auxiliary device.
The remote control does not operate any of the RSA
features.RSA SRC (Rear Seat Audio Source):Press this
button to turn on the RSA system. Press this button
to switch between playing the AM, FM1, FM2, XM1™
or XM2™ Satellite Radio Service (if equipped), or
the front CD player. If one of the sources is not loaded,
the system skips over the source when this button is
pressed. Hold this button down to turn off RSA.
