DIC Information Displays
The following is the list of all possible DIC
information displays and their locations.
Some of the information displays may not
be available for your particular vehicle.
Infotainment : Displays the actively playing
audio.
Trip 1 or Trip 2 and Average Fuel
Economy : The Trip display shows the
current distance traveled, in either
kilometers (km) or miles (mi), since the trip
odometer was last reset. To reset the
current trip, touch and hold the touchscreen
display when trip odometer is displayed.
The Average Fuel Economy 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 approximate average fuel economy that the
vehicle has right now, and will change as
driving conditions change. The Average Fuel
Economy can be reset along with the trip
odometer by touching and holding the
touchscreen display when trip odometer is
displayed.
Average Speed :
Shows the average speed
of the vehicle in kilometers per hour (km/h)
or miles per hour (mph). This average is
calculated based on the various vehicle
speeds recorded since the last reset of this
value. The average speed can be reset by
touching reset in vehicle status screen.
Battery Voltage : Shows the current battery
voltage.
Oil Life : Shows an estimate of the oil's
remaining useful life. If REMAINING OIL LIFE
99% is displayed, that means 99% of the
current oil life remains.
When the remaining oil life is low, the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message will
appear on the display. The oil should be
changed as soon as possible. See Engine Oil
0 221. In addition to the engine oil life
system monitoring the oil life, additional
maintenance is recommended. See
Maintenance Schedule 0286. The Oil Life display must be reset after each
oil change. It will not reset itself. Do not
reset the Oil Life display accidentally at any
time other than when the oil has just been
changed. It cannot be reset accurately until
the next oil change. To reset, see
Engine Oil
Life System 0223.
Fuel Economy : Displays information about
current and average fuel economy.
Oil Pressure : Shows the engine oil pressure
in kPa (kilopascals) or psi (pounds per
square inch).
Engine Hours : Shows the total number of
hours the engine has run.
Coolant Temperature : Shows the
temperature of the coolant in either degrees
Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F).
Transmission Fluid Temperature : Shows the
temperature of the automatic transmission
fluid in either degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees
Fahrenheit (°F).
Tire Pressure : Shows the approximate
pressures of all four tires. Tire pressure is
displayed in either kilopascal (kPa) or in
pounds per square inch (psi). If the pressure
is low, the value for that tire is shown in

after replacing the brake pads. SeeBrake
Pad Life System 0231.
Oil Life : Displays an estimate of the oil's
remaining useful life. If REMAINING OIL LIFE

reset the Oil Life display accidentally at any
time other than when the oil has just been
changed. It cannot be reset accurately until
the next oil change. To reset, see Engine Oil
Life System 0223.
Engine Air Filter Life : Displays an estimate
of the engine air filter’s remaining useful life
and the state of the system. Engine Air
Filter Life 95% means 95% of the current air
filter life remains. Messages are displayed based on the engine air filter life and the
state of the system. When the REPLACE AT
NEXT OIL CHANGE message displays, the
engine air filter should be replaced at the
time of the next oil change. When the
REPLACE NOW message displays, the engine
air filter should be replaced as soon as
possible. The Air Filter Life display must be

264 Vehicle Care
Your dealer will know the kind of wheel that
is needed.
Each new wheel should have the same
load-carrying capacity, diameter, width,
offset, and be mounted the same way as
the one it replaces.
Replace wheels, wheel bolts, wheel nuts,
or Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)
sensors with new GM original equipment
parts.
{Warning
Using the wrong replacement wheels,
wheel bolts, or wheel nuts can be
dangerous. It could affect the braking and
handling of the vehicle. Tires can lose air
and cause loss of control, resulting in a
crash. Always use the correct wheel,
wheel bolts, and wheel nuts for
replacement.
{Warning
Replacing a wheel with a used one is
dangerous. How it has been used or how
far it has been driven may be unknown.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
It could fail suddenly and cause a crash.
When replacing wheels, use a new GM
original equipment wheel.
Caution
The wrong wheel can also cause
problems with bearing life, brake cooling,
speedometer or odometer calibration,
headlamp aim, bumper height, vehicle
ground clearance, and tire or tire chain
clearance to the body and chassis.
Tire Chains
{Warning
Do not use tire chains. There is not
enough clearance. Tire chains used on a
vehicle without the proper amount of
clearance can cause damage to the
brakes, suspension, or other vehicle parts.
The area damaged by the tire chains
could cause loss of control and a crash.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Use another type of traction device only
if its manufacturer recommends it for the
vehicle's tire size combination and road
conditions. Follow that manufacturer's
instructions. To avoid vehicle damage,
drive slowly and readjust or remove the
traction device if it contacts the vehicle.
Do not spin the wheels. If traction
devices are used, install them on the tires
of the drive axle only.
If a Tire Goes Flat
It is unusual for a tire to blow out while
driving, especially if the tires are maintained
properly. SeeTires0248. If air goes out of
a tire, it is much more likely to leak out
slowly. But if there is ever a blowout, here
are a few tips about what to expect and
what to do:
If a front tire fails, the flat tire creates a
drag that pulls the vehicle toward that side.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal and
grip the steering wheel firmly. Steer to
maintain lane position, and then gently
brake to a stop, well off the road,
if possible.
