Immobilizer
See Radio Frequency Statement 0257.
Immobilizer Operation (Key
Access)
This vehicle has a passive theft-deterrent
system.
The system does not have to be manually
armed or disarmed.
The vehicle is automatically immobilized
when the key is removed from the ignition.
The system is automatically disarmed when
the vehicle is started with the correct key.
The key uses a transponder that matches an
immobilizer control unit in the vehicle and
automatically disarms the system. Only an
authorized key starts the vehicle. The vehicle
may not start if the key is damaged.
The security light in the instrument cluster
comes on if there is a problem with arming
or disarming the theft-deterrent system.
When trying to start the vehicle, the
security light comes on briefly when the
ignition is turned on. If the engine does not start and the security
light stays on, there is a problem with the
system. Turn the ignition off and try again.
If the engine still does not start, and the
key appears to be undamaged or the light
continues to stay on, try another ignition
key. If the engine does not start with the
other key, the vehicle needs service. If the
vehicle does start, the first key may be
damaged. See your dealer who can service
the theft-deterrent system and have a new
key made.
Do not leave the transmitter or device that
disarms or deactivates the theft-deterrent
system in the vehicle.
Immobilizer Operation (Keyless
Access)
This vehicle has a passive theft-deterrent

Compass
The vehicle may have a compass display in
the Driver Information Center (DIC).
Setting the Compass Zone
Under certain circumstances, such as during
a long trip or moving to a new area, the
compass zone will need to be reset. If the
compass is not set to the correct zone, it
may give false readings. The compass zone
should be set to the area in which the
vehicle is currently traveling.
Use the DIC buttons to set the
compass zone:1. While the vehicle is in P (Park), press the MENU button to display the DIC menu.
2. Press and hold SET/CLR while the Set Area display is active.
3. Find the vehicle's current location andzone number on the map. Zones 1
through 15 are available.
4. Use
w xto change to the correct zone
number.
5. Press SET/CLR to confirm the setting.
The compass system is designed to operate
for a certain number of miles or degrees of
turn before needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass display shows
CAL, drive the vehicle for a short distance in
an open area where it can receive a GPS
signal. The compass system will
automatically determine when a GPS signal
is restored and provide a heading again.

Power Outlets
Power Outlet 110/120 Volt Alternating
Current
If equipped, this power outlet is on the rear
of the center console. It can be used to plug
in electrical equipment that uses a
maximum limit of 150 watts.
Chevrolet TRAX Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-15498927) -

Instruments and Controls 79
An indicator light on the outlet turns on to
show it is in use. The light comes on when
the ignition is on and equipment requiring
less than 150 watts is plugged into the
outlet, and no system fault is detected.
The indicator light does not come on when
the ignition is off or if the equipment is not
fully seated into the outlet.
If equipment is connected using more than
150 watts or a system fault is detected, a
protection circuit shuts off the power supply
and the indicator light turns off. To reset
the circuit, unplug the item and plug it back
in or turn the Retained Accessory Power
(RAP) off and then back on. SeeRetained
Accessory Power (RAP) 0147. The power
restarts when equipment using 150 watts or
less is plugged into the outlet and a system
fault is not detected. The power outlet is not designed for and
may not work properly, if the following are
plugged in:
.Equipment with high initial peak wattage
such as: compressor-driven refrigerators
and electric power tools
.Other equipment requiring an extremely
stable power supply such as:
microcomputer-controlled electric blankets,
touch sensor lamps, etc
.Medical equipment
Warning Lights, Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can signal that
something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive repair
or replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gauges could prevent
injury.Some warning lights come on briefly when
the engine is started to indicate they are
working. When one of the warning lights
comes on and stays on while driving,
or when one of the gauges shows there
may be a problem, check the section that
explains what to do. Waiting to do repairs
can be costly and even dangerous.

fuel remaining in the fuel tank. Fuel range
cannot be reset.
Instantaneous Fuel Economy
The instantaneous fuel economy display
shows 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 that the vehicle
has right now and changes frequently as
driving conditions change. Unlike average

Average Fuel Economy
This display shows the approximate average
liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles
per gallon (mpg). This number is calculated
based on the number of L/100 km (mpg)
recorded since the last time this menu item
was reset. This number reflects only the
