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.

full tank of the proper fuel to turn
the light off. SeeRecommended Fuel

If the light remains on, see your
dealer.
Emissions Inspection and
Maintenance Programs
If the vehicle requires an Emissions
Inspection/Maintenance test, the test
equipment will likely connect to the
vehicle's Data Link Connector (DLC).
The DLC is under the instrument
panel to the left of the steering wheel.
Connecting devices that are not used
to perform an Emissions Inspection/
Maintenance test or to service the vehicle may affect vehicle operation.
See
Add-On Electrical Equipment 0321.
See your dealer if assistance is needed.
The vehicle may not pass
inspection if:
.The light is on when the engine is
running.
.The light does not come on when
the ignition is in Service Mode.
.Critical emission control systems
have not been completely
diagnosed. If this happens, the
vehicle would not be ready for
inspection and might require
several days of routine driving
before the system is ready for
inspection. This can happen if the
12-volt battery has recently been
replaced or run down, or if the
vehicle has been recently serviced.
See your dealer if the vehicle will not
pass or cannot be made ready for
the test.
Brake System Warning
Light
MetricEnglish
This light should come on briefly
when the vehicle is turned on. If it
does not come on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there
is a problem.
If the light comes on and stays on at
start up, there is a brake problem.
Have the brake system inspected
right away.
If the light comes on while driving,
pull off the road and stop carefully.
The brake system has electric brake
boost. Vehicle speed may be limited
when the brake system warning light
comes on. The brake pedal might be
harder to push, or the brake pedal
may go closer to the floor. It could
take longer to stop. If the light is still
on, have the vehicle towed for service.

If both the ABS warning light and the
brake system warning light are on,
ABS is not functioning and there is a
problem with the regular brakes. See
your dealer for service.

Performance Shifting Light
If equipped, this light may display
green when Sport Mode is activated
and certain driving conditions are
met. Sport Mode detects when the
vehicle is being driven in a
competitive manner, and adjusts the
shifting of the gears accordingly. See
Driver Mode Control 0258.
Automatic Vehicle Hold
(AVH) Light
This light comes on when AVH is
turned on. See Automatic Vehicle Hold
(AVH) 0256.
Lane Keep Assist (LKA)
Light
Base LevelUplevel
If equipped, this light is white if LKA
is turned on, but not ready to assist.
This light is green if LKA is turned on
and is ready to assist. LKA may assist by gently turning the
steering wheel if the vehicle
approaches a detected lane marking.
The LKA light is amber when
assisting.
This light flashes amber as a Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) alert, to
indicate that the lane marking has
been unintentionally crossed. If the
system detects that the vehicle has
been steered intentionally across a
lane marker, the LDW may not be
given. Do not expect the LDW to
occur when intentionally crossing the
lane marker.
LKA will not assist or alert if the turn
signal is active in the direction of lane
departure, or if LKA detects that you
are accelerating, braking, or actively
steering.

DIC Info Tiles Selection
The following is the list of all possible
DIC Info Tiles. Depending on the
vehicle, some may not be available.
Left Zone
Battery Voltage :Displays the current
battery voltage. The battery voltage
can fluctuate while viewing this
information on the DIC. This is
normal.
Coolant Temperature : Displays the
coolant temperature in either degrees
Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F).
eLSD : Displays the amount of rear
differential coupling when the
Electronic Limited-Slip Differential
(eLSD) is active and functioning
during vehicle operation. A reading of
1% is an open differential and 100% is
locked. It is normal for the value to
make small or large changes due to
driving conditions and driver inputs.
For the V-Series Blackwing models,
the eLSD maintains some coupling
even if the vehicle is stationary or not
accelerating. Coupling values of 3%
and up are typical. See Limited-Slip
Differential 0266. Engine Boost :
If equipped, displays
engine manifold pressure relative to
ambient air pressure. It will display
boost pressure generated by the
turbocharging system.
Instantaneous Fuel Economy/
Economy Trend : Displays the current
fuel economy in liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles per
gallon (mpg). This number reflects
only the approximate fuel economy
and changes frequently as driving
conditions change. This display
cannot be reset.
When in tour mode, shows history of
the Average Fuel Economy from the
last 100 km (62 mi). Each bar
represents about 5 km (3 mi) of
driving. When driving, the bars shift
to reflect the most recent distance on
the right side.
Lateral G-Force : If equipped,
displays inertial forces being exerted
on the vehicle in the lateral
(side-to-side) direction as numerical
value and as graphical depiction.
Oil Pressure : Shows the current oil
pressure in either kilopascal (kPa) or
