INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DISPLAY
Your vehicle may be equipped with an instru-
ment cluster display, which offers useful
information to the driver. With the ignition in
the STOP/OFF mode, opening/closing of a
door will activate the display for viewing, and
display the total miles, or kilometers, in the
odometer. Your instrument cluster display is
designed to display important information
about your vehicle’s systems and features.
Using a driver interactive display located on
the instrument panel, your instrument
cluster display can show you how systems
are working and give you warnings when they
aren’t. The steering wheel mounted controls
allow you to scroll through and enter the
main menus and submenus. You can access
the specific information you want and make
selections and adjustments.

Oil Change Indicator System — If
Equipped
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil
change indicator system. The “Oil Change
Due” message will display in the instrument
cluster display for five seconds after a single
chime has sounded, to indicate the next
scheduled oil change interval. The engine oil
change indicator system is duty cycle based,
which means the engine oil change interval
may fluctuate, dependent upon your
personal driving style.
Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) — If Equipped
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system is
enabled on vehicles with a manual transmis -sion, or when a vehicle with an automatic
transmission is in manual shift mode. The
GSI provides the driver with a visual indica
-
tion when the recommended gear shift point
has been reached. This indication notifies
the driver that changing gear will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption. When the up
shift indicator is shown on the instrument
cluster display, the GSI is advising the driver
to engage a higher gear. When the down shift
indicator is shown on the display, the GSI is
advising the driver to engage a lower gear.
The GSI remains illuminated until the driver
changes gear, or the driving conditions
return to a situation where changing gear is
not required to improve fuel consumption.
Instrument Cluster Display Menu Items
NOTE:
The instrument cluster display menu items
display in the center of the instrument
cluster. Menu items may vary depending on
your vehicle features.
