Power Outlet 115 Volt Alternating
Current
Your vehicle may have a power outlet that can be used
to plug in electrical equipment that uses a maximum
limit of 150 watts.
The power outlet is located
behind the third row seats
on the passenger’s side
rear quarter trim panel.
An indicator light on the outlet turns on to show it is in
use. The light comes on when the ignition is in ON/RUN
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 in LOCK/OFF or if no equipment is plugged into
the outlet.
If you try to connect equipment 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 Remote Accessory Power (RAP) off
and then back on. SeeRetained Accessory Power (RAP)
on page 2-32. 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 the following
electrical equipment and may not work properly if
these items are plugged into the power outlet:
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.
3-23

Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both
miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
Your odometer shows how far your vehicle has
been driven, in either miles (used in the United States)
or kilometers (used in Canada).
Your vehicle has a tamper-resistant odometer.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle needs a
new odometer installed. The new one can be set to
the mileage total of the old odometer.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer can display how far you have driven
since you last reset it.
For more information seeDIC Operation and Displays
on page 3-50.
Tachometer
Your tachometer displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (rpm).
Safety Belt Reminders
Safety Belt Reminder Light
When the engine is started, a chime will come on for
several seconds to remind people to fasten their safety
belts, unless the driver’s safety belt is already buckled.
The safety belt light will
also come on and stay
on for several seconds,
then it will ash for
several more.
This chime and light is repeated if the driver remains
unbuckled and the vehicle is in motion. If the driver’s belt
is already buckled, neither the chime nor the light will
come on.
3-36

Antilock Brake System
Warning Light
For vehicles with
the Antilock Brake
System (ABS), this light
will come on briey when
you start the engine.
That is normal. If the light does not come on then, have it
xed so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
If the ABS light stays on, turn the ignition off, if the light
comes on when you are driving, stop as soon as it is
safely possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the
engine again to reset the system. If the ABS light still
stays on, or comes on again while you are driving,
your vehicle needs service. If the regular brake system
warning light is not on, you still have brakes, but you do
not have antilock brakes. If the regular brake system
warning light is also on, you do not have antilock brakes
and there is a problem with your regular brakes.
SeeBrake System Warning Light on page 3-41
For vehicles with a Driver Information Center (DIC),
seeDIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-58for
all brake related DIC messages.
Traction Control System (TCS)
Warning Light
Your vehicle is equipped
with a traction control
system warning light.
The traction control system warning light may come on
for the following reasons:
If you turn the system off by pressing the traction
control button. To turn the system back on, press
the button again. The warning light should go
off. SeeTraction Control System (TCS) on page 4-6
for more information.
If there’s a brake system problem that is specically
related to traction control, the traction control system
will turn off and the warning light will come on. If your
brakes begin to overheat, the traction control system
will turn off and the warning light will come on until
your brakes cool down.
If the traction control system is affected by an
engine-related problem, the system will turn off
and the warning light will come on.
3-42

Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC).
All messages appear in the DIC display located in the
instrument panel cluster, below the tachometer. The DIC
buttons are located on the center of the instrument
panel, below the center outlets.
The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. After a short
delay, the DIC displays WELCOME DRIVER (1 or 2)
if a personalized key 1 or 2 is used, and then the
information that was last displayed before the engine
was turned off. The driver number also corresponds
to the numbers, 1 or 2, on the back of the remote
keyless entry transmitters.
The DIC displays the odometer, trip odometers, fuel
economy, trip computer, vehicle system information, and
compass display, if equipped. It also displays warning
messages if a system problem is detected. In addition,
the DIC displays phone numbers that are called using the
OnStar
®system, if equipped. SeeOnStar®System on
page 2-47.On some vehicles, the outside air temperature
automatically appears in the bottom right corner
of the DIC display when viewing all of the information
screens, except for the oil life screens. If the outside air
temperature is at or below 37°F (3°C), the temperature
reading will toggle between displaying the outside
temperature and the word ICE for two minutes. If there is
a problem with the system that controls the temperature
display, the letters OC (open circuit) or SC (short circuit)
will appear on the display. If this occurs, have the vehicle
serviced by your dealer/retailer.
The DIC also allows some features to be customized
or personalized, if equipped. SeeDIC Vehicle
Personalization (Uplevel Only) on page 3-76
for more information.
DIC Operation and Displays
The DIC has different modes which can be accessed by

Information Button Items
Q4R
(Information):Press this button to scroll
through the following items:
Odometer
Press the information button until the odometer displays.
This mode shows the distance the vehicle has been
driven in either miles or kilometers.
Trip A and Trip B
Press the information button until A or B displays.
This mode shows the current distance traveled in
either miles or kilometers since the last reset for each
trip odometer. Both trip odometers can be used at
the same time.
The display will show the odometer on the top line and
the trip odometer information, either A or B, on the
bottom line.
Each trip odometer can be reset to zero separately
by pressing the set/reset button while the desired trip
odometer is displayed.
3-51

There is also a retroactive trip odometer function that
performs the following for each trip odometer:
If the vehicle’s speed has exceeded 3 mph (5 km/h)
during the current ignition cycle, this function will
set the trip odometer to the distance driven
during the current ignition cycle.
If the vehicle’s speed has not exceeded 3 mph
(5 km/h), this function will set the trip odometer
to the distance driven during the previous ignition
cycle plus the distance driven during the current
ignition cycle.
Press and hold the set/reset button for three seconds,
then release the button. The retroactive trip odometer
value will be set into the currently displayed trip
odometer.
Time Elapsed
Press the information button until TIME ELAPSED :00
displays. This mode is like a stopwatch, in that you can
clock the time it takes to get from one point to another.
Each of the elds for the hours, minutes, and seconds
are two numeric digits.Once TIME ELAPSED :00 is displayed, press the
set/reset button to start the timing feature. Press the
set/reset button again to stop it. If you will be starting
and stopping your vehicle, during a trip for instance, the
TIME ELAPSED feature will automatically start timing
where it left off when you last stopped. To reset it, press
and hold the set/reset button for about 1.5 seconds.
The display will return to zero.
Average Speed
Press the information button until AVERAGE SPEED
displays. This mode shows the average speed of the
vehicle in miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour
(km/h). This average is calculated based on the various
vehicle speed recorded since the last reset of this value.
To reset the value, press the information button to display
AVERAGE SPEED, then press and hold the set/reset
button. The display will return to zero.
3-52

Fuel Range
Press the information button until FUEL RANGE
displays. This mode shows the approximate number
of remaining miles or kilometers the vehicle can
be driven without refueling.
Fuel range is based on several factors, including
distance travelled, fuel used, fuel capacity, etc.
This estimate will change if driving conditions change.
For example, if driving in traffic and making frequent
stops, this mode may read one number, but if the vehicle
is driven on a freeway, the number may change even
though the same amount of fuel is in the fuel tank.
This is because different driving conditions produce
different fuel economies. Generally, freeway driving
produces better fuel economy than city driving.
Fuel range cannot be reset.
If your vehicle is low on fuel, FUEL RANGE LOW
will display followed by the LOW FUEL message.
See “LOW FUEL” underDIC Warnings and Messages
on page 3-58for more information.
Average Fuel Economy
Press the information button until AVG ECONOMY
displays. This mode shows the approximate average
miles per gallon (mpg) or liters per 100 kilometers
(L/100 km). This number is calculated based on the
number of mpg (L/100 km) recorded since the last time
this menu item was reset. To reset AVG ECONOMY,
press and hold the set/reset button. The display
will return to zero.
Battery
Press the information button until BATTERY displays.
This mode shows the current battery voltage.
Your vehicle’s charging system regulates voltage based
on the state of the battery. The battery voltage may
uctuate when viewing this information on the DIC.
This is normal.
