Warning Lights,
Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can
signal that something is wrong
before it becomes serious enough
to cause an expensive repair or
replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gauges could
prevent injury.
Warning lights come on when there
could be a problem with a vehicle
function. Some warning lights come
on briefly when the engine is started
to indicate they are working.
Gauges can indicate when there
could be a problem with a vehicle
function. Often gauges and warning
lights work together to indicate a
problem with the vehicle.
When one of the warning lights
comes on and stays on while
driving, or when one of the gauges
shows there may be a problem,
check the section that explains what to do. Follow this manual's advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be costly
and even dangerous.Instrument Cluster
The instrument cluster displays a
preview of information that includes
electric range, charging, odometer,
and battery status. This happens
upon entry when the driver door is
opened, and following the welcome
animation, before starting the
vehicle.
The CHARGING OVERRIDE/
INTERRUPTION OCCURRED
message may display on the lower
right of the screen to indicate that a
charging override or interruption has
occurred due to one or more of the
following events:
.Override of the charge settings
by the owner using OnStar.
.Unintended interruption of AC
power at the vehicle's
charge port.

vehicle has been driven, in either
kilometers or miles.
This vehicle has a tamper-resistant
odometer. If the vehicle needs a
new cluster installed, the new
odometer is set to the mileage of
the old odometer. If this is not
possible, it is set at zero and a label
is put on the driver door to show the
old mileage reading.

The trip odometer can show how far
the vehicle has been driven since
the trip odometer was last reset.

Battery Gauge (High
Voltage)

Instruments and Controls 5-13
This gauge shows the high voltage
battery charge level.
The arrow next to the battery
symbol points to the side of the
vehicle the charge port is on.
SeeElectric Mode on page 9-21.
Fuel Gauge
When the ignition is on, the fuel
gauge indicates about how much
fuel is left in the tank. There is an arrow near the fuel
gauge pointing to the side of the
vehicle the fuel door is on.
When the indicator nears empty, the
low fuel light comes on. There still is
a little fuel left, but the vehicle
should be refueled soon.
Here are four things that some
owners ask about. None of these
show a problem with the fuel gauge:
.At the service station, the fuel
pump shuts off before the gauge
reads full.
.It takes a little more or less fuel
to fill up than the gauge
indicated. For example, the
gauge may have indicated the
tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than
half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank.
.The gauge takes a few seconds
to stabilize after the ignition is
turned on, and goes back to
empty when the ignition is
turned off.
Driver Efficiency Gauge
This gauge appears on the left side
of the display in the Classic
Enhanced configuration.
This gauge is a guide to driving in
an efficient manner by keeping the
marker green and in the center of
the gauge.
See
Driving for Better Energy
Efficiency on page 9-2.

accel:If the leaf turns yellow and
travels above the center of the
gauge, acceleration is too
aggressive to optimize efficiency.
brake: If the leaf turns yellow and
travels below the center of the
gauge, braking is too aggressive to
optimize efficiency.
In the Modern display
configurations, the light ring in the
center of the display acts as an
efficiency gauge. It is green when
driving efficiently and turns yellow
when acceleration or braking is too
aggressive.Power Indicator Gauge
Battery Power
Total Power The power gauge is on the right
side of the display in the Classic
Enhanced configuration and on both
right and left sides in the Modern
Enhanced configuration.
The power gauge shows the power
coming from the engine and/or
battery. When the power indicator is
green, battery power is being
regenerated. When the indicator is
yellow, the vehicle is using power.
