Simplify
Press the thumbwheel to enter the
Simplify menu. Simplify Mode allows
certain features of the instrument
cluster to be hidden. These features
include info tiles and interactive areas.
Using the thumbwheel
SorT, except
to acknowledge an alert, will exit
Simplify Mode.
The selected features will stay hidden
even after starting and restarting the
vehicle, unless Simplify Mode is
manually canceled.
Speedometer
The speedometer shows the vehicle
speed in either kilometers per hour
(km/h) or miles per hour (mph).
Odometer
The odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven, in either
kilometers or miles.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven since the trip
odometer was last reset.
The trip odometer is accessed and
reset through the Driver Information
Center (DIC). See Driver Information
Center (DIC) (Base Level) 0109 or
Driver Information Center (DIC)
(Uplevel) 0112.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine
speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
For vehicles with the Stop/Start
system, when the ignition is on, the
tachometer indicates the vehicle
status. When pointing to AUTO STOP
(Base Level) or the cluster displays
AUTO STOP text (Uplevel), the engine
is off but the vehicle is on and can
move. The engine could auto start at
any time. When the indicator points
to OFF, the vehicle is off.
The tachometer may vary by several
hundred rpm, during Auto Stop mode,
when the engine is shutting off and
restarting. Uplevel
The redline of the tachometer adjusts
dynamically based on engine
temperature. The redline displays a
lower indication when the vehicles
odometer value is less than
805 kilometers (500 miles).
If equipped, the shift indicators are
displayed on instrument cluster and
Head-Up Display (HUD). The shift
indicators are only operational when
the automatic transmission is in
Manual mode, or the vehicle has a
manual transmission. See
Manual
Mode (Electronic Shifter) 0249 or
Manual Mode (Mechanical Shifter)
0 248. When the vehicle engine is less
than 70°C (158°F) and the vehicle
odometer value is less than
805 kilometers (500 miles) the shift
indications are not displayed.
A strong visual indicator is displayed
as the vehicle approaches the red line.
Tour and Sport themes feature shift
rings while the Track theme features
shift lights accompanied by a
numerical tachometer display.

Fuel Gauge
Base Level
Uplevel Sport Mode Shown, OtherModes Similar
When the ignition is on, the fuel
gauge indicates the approximate
amount of fuel 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.
The fuel gauge may:
.Take a little more, or less fuel to fill
up than it indicates. For example,
the gauge may have indicated the
tank is half full, but it actually takes
a little more, or less than half the
tank's capacity to fill the tank.
.Move a little while turning a corner,
speeding up, or braking.
.Take a few seconds to stabilize after
the ignition is turned on and goes
back to empty when the ignition is
turned off.
These are normal conditions, none of
which indicate a problem with the fuel
gauge.
Fuel Range
The uplevel instrument cluster has a
estimated fuel range located at the
bottom center of the display. The fuel range is displayed with the
approximate distance the vehicle can
be driven without refueling. The fuel
range estimate is based on an average
of the vehicle’s fuel economy over
recent driving history and the amount
of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
When the estimated fuel range is low,
the range shows LOW and a message
may also display in the Driver
Information Center (DIC).

English
This gauge measures the temperature
of the vehicle's engine.
While driving under normal operating
conditions, if the red LED is
illuminated, the engine is too hot. Pull
off the road, stop the vehicle, and turn
off the engine as soon as possible.
Engine Coolant
Temperature Gauge
(Uplevel)
Sport Mode Shown, Track Mode Similar
This gauge shows the engine coolant
temperature.
If the gauge pointer moves into the
red zone, the engine is too hot.
This reading indicates the same thing
as the warning light. It means that the
engine coolant has overheated. If the
vehicle has been operating under
normal driving conditions, pull off the
road, stop the vehicle, and turn off the
engine as soon as possible. See Engine
Overheating 0342 for more
information.
Seat Belt Reminders
Driver Seat Belt Reminder Light
There is a driver seat belt reminder
light on the instrument cluster.
When the vehicle is started, this light
flashes and a chime may come on to
remind the driver to fasten their
seat belt.
Then the light stays on solid until the
belt is buckled. This cycle may
continue several times if the driver
remains or becomes unbuckled while
the vehicle is moving.
If the driver seat belt is buckled,
neither the light nor the chime
comes on.

Front Passenger Seat Belt
Reminder Light
The vehicle may have a front
passenger seat belt reminder light
near the passenger airbag status
indicator. SeePassenger Sensing
System 054.
When the vehicle is started, this light
flashes and a chime may come on to
remind passengers to fasten their
seat belt.
Then the light stays on solid until the
belt is buckled. This cycle continues
several times if the front passenger
remains or becomes unbuckled while
the vehicle is moving.
If the front passenger seat belt is
buckled, neither the chime nor the
light comes on. The front passenger seat belt reminder
light and chime may come on if an
object is put on the seat such as a
briefcase, handbag, grocery bag,
laptop, or other electronic device. To
turn off the reminder light and/or
chime, remove the object from the
seat or buckle the seat belt.
Airbag Readiness Light
This light shows if there is an
electrical problem with the airbag
system. It is located in the instrument
cluster. The system check includes the
airbag sensor(s), the passenger
sensing system, the pretensioners, the
airbag modules, the wiring, and the
crash sensing and diagnostic module.
For more information on the airbag
system, see
Airbag System 048.
The airbag readiness light comes on
for several seconds when the vehicle is
started. If the light does not come on
then, have it fixed immediately.
{Warning
If the airbag readiness light stays
on after the vehicle is started or
comes on while driving, it means
the airbag system might not be
working properly. The airbags in the
vehicle might not inflate in a crash,
or they could even inflate without a
crash. To help avoid injury, have
the vehicle serviced right away.
If there is a problem with the airbag
system, a Driver Information Center
(DIC) message may also come on.
Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger sensing
system. See Passenger Sensing System
0 54 for important safety information.

This light comes on briefly when the
vehicle is turned on.
If the light does not come on, have
the vehicle serviced by your dealer.
If the system is working normally, the
indicator light turns off.
If the light is on and not flashing, the
TCS and potentially the StabiliTrak/
ESC system are not fully operational
and may not assist in maintaining
control. Adjust driving accordingly.
If the condition persists, see your
dealer as soon as possible. A Driver
Information Center (DIC) message
may display.
The light flashes when the TCS and/or
the StabiliTrak/ESC system is actively
working. See

For vehicles with the reconfigurable
cluster, this light may not come on
when starting the vehicle.
Caution
The engine coolant temperature
warning light indicates that the
vehicle has overheated. Driving with
this light on can damage the engine
and it may not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. See Engine
