Head-Up Display (HUD)
{CAUTION:
If the HUD image is too bright or too high
in your eld of view, it may take you more
time to see things you need to see when
it is dark outside. Be sure to keep the
HUD image dim and placed low in your
eld of view.
If the vehicle has the Head-Up Display (HUD),
some information concerning the operation of the
vehicle is projected onto the windshield. This
includes the speedometer reading, RPM reading,
transmission position, outside air temperature, the
tap shift gear, and a brief display of the current
radio station, including XM information or CD track.It will also display turn-by-turn navigation
information if the vehicle has a navigation radio.
The images are projected by the HUD lens located
on the driver’s side of the instrument panel.
The tap shift gear will also appear on the HUD if
the vehicle has tap shift and it is active.
The HUD information can be displayed in one of
three languages, English, French, or Spanish.
The speedometer reading and other numerical
values can be displayed in either English or
metric units.
The language selection and the units of
measurement are changed through the trip
computer in the Driver Information Center (DIC).
SeeDIC Vehicle Customization (With DIC Buttons)
on page 255.

The HUD information appears as an image
focused out toward the front of the vehicle.
When the ignition key is turned to RUN, the HUD
will display an introductory message for a short
time, until the HUD is ready.
The following indicator lights come on the
instrument panel when activated and will also
appear on the HUD:
Turn Signal Indicators
High-Beam Indicator SymbolThe HUD will temporarily display CHECK GAGES
and ICE POSSIBLE when there are messages
on the DIC trip computer.
The HUD will also display the following messages
when these systems are active:
TRACTION CONTROL ACTIVE
STABILITRAK ACTIVE
Notice:If you try to use the HUD image as a
parking aid, you may misjudge the distance
and damage your vehicle. Do not use the
HUD image as a parking aid.
When the HUD is on, the speedometer reading
will continually be displayed. The current radio
station or CD track number will display for a short
period of time after the radio or CD track status
changes. This will happen whenever radio
information is changed. The speedometer size
will be reduced when radio, CD information,
warnings, or turn-by-turn navigation information
are displayed on the HUD.

Format Two:This display includes the information
in Format One without the transmission information
and the outside air temperature.
Format Three:This display includes all the
information in Format One along with a circular
tachometer, but without outside air temperature.
All formats will show the turn-by-turn navigation
information and provide details about the next
driving maneuver to be made. When you near your
destination, the HUD will display a distance bar
that will ll in the closer you get to your destination.All navigation information is provided to the HUD
by the navigation radio, if the vehicle has one.
The HUD image displayed on the windshield will
automatically dim and brighten to compensate
for outside lighting.
The HUD image can temporarily light up
depending on the angle and position of the
sunlight on the HUD display. This is normal and
will change when the angle of the sunlight on
the HUD display changes.
Polarized sunglasses could make the HUD image
harder to see.
Care of the HUD
Clean the inside of the windshield as needed to
remove any dirt or lm that could reduce the
sharpness or clarity of the HUD image.
To clean the HUD lens, use a soft, clean cloth
that has household glass cleaner sprayed
on it. Wipe the HUD lens gently, then dry it.
Do not spray cleaner directly on the lens
because the cleaner could leak into the unit.

extension (such as .mp3) as the track name.
Track names longer than 32 characters or
four pages are shortened. Parts of words on
the last page of text and the extension of
the lename displays.
Preprogrammed Playlists

the top or bottom slot, label side up. The player
pulls it in, and the CD-R or CD-RW should

right arrows (to move up or down through available
folders), a PL tag if the disc has a Playlist available,
and a Music Navigator tag. If a Playlist tag is
shown, toggling this key brings up a Folder softkey
only or the menu as previously described.
If the ignition or radio is turned off with a CD-R
or CD-RW in the player, it stays in the player.
When the ignition or radio is turned on, the CD-R
or CD-RW starts to play where it stopped, if it
was the last selected audio source.
As each new track starts to play, the track number
and song title displays.
If playing a CD-R or CD-RW, the sound quality
can be reduced due to CD-R or CD-RW quality,
the method of recording, the quality of the
music that has been recorded, and the way the
CD-R or CD-RW has been handled. There can
be an increase in skipping, difficulty in nding
tracks, and/or difficulty in loading and ejecting.

Navigation/Radio System
Your vehicle may have a navigation radio system.
The navigation system has built-in features
intended to minimize driver distraction. Technology
alone, no matter how advanced, can never
replace your own judgment. See the Navigation
System manual for some tips to help you
reduce distractions while driving.
Rear Seat Entertainment System
Your vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) system. The RSE system
works with the vehicle’s audio system. The
DVD player is part of the front radio. The RSE
system includes a radio with a DVD player, a video
display screen, audio/video jacks, two wireless
headphones, and a remote control. SeeRadio with
CD and DVD on page 278for more information
on the vehicle’s audio/DVD system.
Before You Drive
The RSE is designed for rear seat passengers
only. The driver cannot safely view the video
screen while driving and should not try to do so.
In severe or extreme weather conditions the
RSE system might not work until the temperature
is within the operating range. The operating
range for the RSE system is above−4°F (−20°C)
or below 140°F (60°C). If the temperature of
your vehicle is outside of this range, heat or cool
the vehicle until the temperature is within the
operating range of the RSE system.
Parental Control
The RSE system may have a Parental Control
feature, depending on which radio you have.
To enable Parental Control, press and hold the
radio power button for more than two seconds to
stop all system features such as: radio, video
screen, RSA, DVD and/or CD. While Parental
Control is on, a padlock icon displays.
When the radio is turned back on, Parental
Control is unlocked.
