Digital Speedometer
The speedometer shows how fastthe vehicle is moving in eitherkilometers per hour (km/h) or milesper hour (mph). The speedometercannot be reset.
Trip
Turn the trip odometer reset stemuntil TRIP displays. The currentdistance traveled, in eitherkilometers (km) or miles (mi), sincethe last reset for the trip odometer isshown. The trip odometer can bereset to zero by pressing andholding the trip odometer reset stemwhile the trip odometer is displayed.
Fuel Range
This display shows the approximatedistance the vehicle can be drivenwithout refueling. The fuel rangeestimate is based on an average ofthe vehicle's fuel economy overrecent driving history and theamount of fuel remaining in the fueltank. Fuel range cannot be reset.
Average Fuel Economy
The Average Fuel Economy displayshows the approximate averageliters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km)or miles per gallon (mpg). Thisnumber reflects only theapproximate average fuel economythat the vehicle has right now, andwill change as driving conditionschange. This number is based onthe number of L/100 km (mpg)recorded since the last time thismenu item was reset. Reset thisdisplay by pressing the tripodometer reset stem.
Tire Pressure
Turn the trip odometer reset stemuntil a vehicle with the approximatepressures of all four tires displays.Tire pressure is displayed in eitherkilopascal (kPa) or in pounds persquare inch (psi).
SeeTire Pressure Monitor System0407andTire Pressure MonitorOperation0408.
Remaining Oil Life
Turn the trip odometer reset stemuntil REMAINING OIL LIFEdisplays. An estimate of the oil'sremaining useful life is shown.REMAINING OIL LIFE 99% means99% of the current oil life remains.
When the remaining oil life is low,the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOONmessage will appear on the display.SeeEngine Oil Messages0152.The oil should be changed as soonas possible. SeeEngine Oil0359.In addition to the engine oil lifesystem monitoring the oil life,additional maintenance isrecommended in the MaintenanceSchedule. SeeMaintenanceSchedule0452.
The Oil Life display must be resetafter each oil change. It will notreset itself. Do not reset the Oil Lifedisplay at any time other than whenthe oil has just been changed.It cannot be reset accurately untilthe next oil change. To reset theengine oil life system, seeEngineOil Life System0362.

Tire Inspection
We recommend that the tires,
including the spare tire, if the
vehicle has one, be inspected
for signs of wear or damage at
least once a month.
Replace the tire if:
.The indicators at three or
more places around the tire
can be seen.

414 Vehicle Care
{Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose
after time. The wheel could come
off and cause an accident. When
changing a wheel, remove any
rust or dirt from places where the
wheel attaches to the vehicle. In
an emergency, a cloth or a paper
towel can be used; however, use
ascraperorwirebrushlaterto
remove all rust or dirt.
Lightly coat the inner diameter of
the wheel hub opening with
wheel bearing grease after a
wheel change or tire rotation to
prevent corrosion or rust
build-up. Do not get grease on
the flat wheel mounting surface
or on the wheel nuts or bolts.
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS), if the vehicle
has one. SeeTire Pressure
Monitor Operation0408.
Check that the spare tire, if the
vehicle has one, is stored
properly. Push, pull, and then try
to rotate or turn the tire. If it
moves, tighten the cable. See
“Storing a Flat or Spare Tire and
To o l s”underTire
Changing0422.
When It Is Time for New
Tires
Factors, such as maintenance,temperatures, driving speeds,vehicle loading, and road conditionsaffect the wear rate of the tires.
Treadwear indicators are one way totell when it is time for new tires.Treadwear indicators appear whenthe tires have only 1.6 mm (1/16 in)or less of tread remaining. Somecommercial truck tires may not havetreadwear indicators. SeeTireInspection0411andTire Rotation0412for additional information.
The rubber in tires ages over time.This also applies to the spare tire,if the vehicle has one, even if it isnever used. Multiple factorsincluding temperatures, loadingconditions, and inflation pressuremaintenance affect how fast agingtakes place. GM recommends thattires, including the spare ifequipped, be replaced after sixyears, regardless of tread wear. Thetire manufacture date is the last fourdigits of the DOT Tire IdentificationNumber (TIN) which is molded intoone side of the tire sidewall. Thefirst two digits represent the week(01-52) and the last two digits, theyear. For example, the third week ofthe year 2010 would have afour-digit DOT date of 0310.

ayearandtheoillifesystemmustbe reset. Your trained dealertechnician can perform this work.If the engine oil life system is resetaccidentally, service the vehiclewithin 5 000 km/3,000 mi since thelast service. Reset the oil lifesystem when the oil is changed.SeeEngine Oil Life System0362.
Passenger Compartment Air
Filter
The passenger compartment airfilter removes dust, pollen, andother airborne irritants from outsideair that is pulled into the vehicle.The filter should be replaced as partof routine scheduled maintenance.Inspect the passenger compartmentair filter every 36 000 km/22,500 miles or two years,whichever comes first. Replace ifnecessary. More frequentreplacement may be needed if thevehicle is driven in areas with heavytraffic, areas with poor air quality,or areas with high dust levels.
Replacement may also be needed ifthere is a reduction in air flow,excessive window fogging, or odors.
Tire Rotation and Required
Services Every 12 000 km/
7,500 mi
Rotate the tires, if recommended forthe vehicle, and perform thefollowing services. SeeTireRotation0412.
.Check engine oil level and oillife percentage. If needed,change engine oil and filter, andreset oil life system. SeeEngineOil0359andEngine Oil LifeSystem0362.
.Check engine coolant level. SeeEngine Coolant0369.
.Check windshield washer fluidlevel. SeeWasher Fluid0375.
.Visually inspect windshield wiperblades for wear, cracking,or contamination. SeeExteriorCare0441.Replacewornordamaged wiper blades. SeeWiper BladeReplacement0384.
.Check tire inflation pressures.SeeTire Pressure0405.
.Inspect tire wear. SeeTireInspection0411.
.Visually check for fluid leaks.
.Inspect engine air cleaner filter.SeeEngine Air Cleaner/Filter0367.
.Inspect brake system. SeeExterior Care0441.
