Air Filter Life : If equipped, shows
an estimate of the engine air filter ’s
remaining useful life and the state of
the system. Engine Air Filter Life
95% means 95% of the current air
filter life remains. Messages will
display based on the engine air filter
life and the state of the system.
When the REPLACE AT NEXT OIL
CHANGE message displays, the
engine air filter should be replaced
at the time of the next oil change.
When the REPLACE NOW
message displays, the engine air
filter should be replaced as soon as
possible.
The Air Filter Life display must be
reset after the engine air filter
replacement. To reset, see Engine
Air Filter Life System (2.0L LTG and
3.6L LGX Engines Only) 0234.
Engine Hours : If equipped, shows
the total number of hours the engine
has run. Coolant Temperature :
Displays
the coolant temperature in either
degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees
Fahrenheit (°F).
Tire Pressure : Displays the
approximate pressures of all four
tires. Tire pressure is displayed in
either kilopascal (kPa) or in pounds
per square inch (psi). If the pressure
is low, the value for that tire is
shown in amber. See Tire Pressure
Monitor System 0269 and
Tire Pressure Monitor Operation
0 270.
Battery Voltage : Displays the
current battery voltage. The battery
voltage can fluctuate while viewing
this information on the DIC. This is
normal.
Speed Limit (Uplevel Cluster) :
Displays sign information, which
comes from a roadway database in
the onboard navigation.
Oil Temperature (Base Cluster) :
Shows the current oil temperature in
either degrees Celsius (°C) or
degrees Fahrenheit (°F). This display is available in the
Performance app on the uplevel
cluster.

Engine Power Messages
ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED
This message displays when the
vehicle's propulsion power is
reduced. A reduction in propulsion
power can affect the vehicle's ability
to accelerate. If this message is on,
but there is no observed reduction in performance, proceed to your
destination. The performance may
be reduced the next time the vehicle
is driven. The vehicle may be driven
while this message is on, but
maximum acceleration and speed
may be reduced. Anytime this
message stays on, or displays
repeatedly, the vehicle should be
taken to your dealer for service as
soon as possible.
Under certain operating conditions,
propulsion will be disabled. Try
restarting after the vehicle has been
off for 30 seconds.
Vehicle Speed Messages
SPEED LIMITED TO XXX KM/
H (MPH)
This message shows that the
vehicle speed has been limited to
the speed displayed. The limited
speed is a protection for various
propulsion and vehicle systems,
such as lubrication, thermal, brakes,
suspension, Teen Driver if
equipped, or tires.

Use the air outlets in the center and
on the side of the instrument panel
to direct the airflow. Turn the center
knobs on the air outlets clockwise or
counterclockwise to open or close
off the airflow.
Operation Tips
.In defog or defrost mode, warm
air flows from side air outlets. To
improve side window defogging
or defrosting, direct side air
outlets toward the side windows. .
Clear away any ice, snow,
or leaves from air inlets at the
base of the windshield that could
block the flow of air into the
vehicle.
. Clear snow off the hood to
improve visibility and help
decrease moisture drawn into
the vehicle.
. Keep the path under the front
seats clear of objects to help
circulate the air inside of the
vehicle more effectively.
. Use of non-GM approved hood
deflectors can adversely affect
the performance of the system.
Check with your dealer before
adding equipment to the outside
of the vehicle.
Maintenance
Passenger Compartment
Air Filter
The passenger compartment air
filter reduces dust, pollen, and other
airborne irritants from outside air
that is pulled into the vehicle. The
filter will need to be replaced
periodically. See Maintenance
Schedule 0306.
Using the climate control system
without an air filter installed is not
recommended. Water or other
debris could enter the system and
result in leaks or noises. Always
install a new filter when removing
the old filter.
For more information on filter
replacement, see your dealer.
Service
All vehicles have a label underhood
that identifies the refrigerant used in
the vehicle. The refrigerant system
should only be serviced by trained
and certified technicians. The air

Engine Oil
To ensure proper engine
performance and long life, careful
attention must be paid to engine oil.
Following these simple, but
important steps will help protect
your investment:
.
Use engine oil approved to the
proper specification and of the
proper viscosity grade. See
“Selecting the Right Engine Oil”
in this section.
. Check the engine oil level
regularly and maintain the
proper oil level. See “Checking
Engine Oil” and“When to Add
Engine Oil” in this section.
. Change the engine oil at the
appropriate time. See Engine Oil
Life System 0232.
. Always dispose of engine oil
properly. See “What to Do with
Used Oil” in this section.
Checking Engine Oil
Check the engine oil level regularly,
every 650 km (400 mi), especially
prior to a long trip. The engine oil
dipstick handle is a loop. See
Engine Compartment Overview
0224 for the location.
{Warning
The engine oil dipstick handle
may be hot; it could burn you.
Use a towel or glove to touch the
dipstick handle.
If a low oil Driver Information Center
(DIC) message displays, check the
oil level.
Follow these guidelines:
. To get an accurate reading, park
the vehicle on level ground.
Check the engine oil level after
the engine has been off for at
least two hours. Checking the
engine oil level on steep grades
or too soon after engine shutoff
can result in incorrect readings.
Accuracy improves when
