2-66 Speedometer and Odometer
The speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h). The
odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven,
in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers
(used in Canada).
You may wonder what happens if a vehicle has to have a
new odometer installed. The new one may read the
correct mileage. This is because your vehicle's computer
has stored the mileage in memory.
Trip Odometer
Digital Cluster Analog Cluster
By pressing one of these buttons, you can tell how far
you've traveled since you last set the trip odometer back
to zero. For information on resetting these buttons, see
ªDigital or Analog Control Buttonsº in the Index.English/Metric Button
Digital Cluster Analog Cluster
With the digital and analog cluster, you can go back and
forth from English (miles) to metric (kilometers) by
pressing this button.
Note: Other readings such as temperature, fuel and
trip odometer also go back and forth between English
and metric.
Vehicle Speed Limiter
This feature prevents your vehicle from exceeding
speeds that the tires are not rated for. When this
happens, the engine's fuel supply is shut off. When the
vehicle speed slows, the fuel supply will come on again.

2-78 Fuel Data Panel
Digital Cluster
For vehicles equipped with an analog cluster (not
shown), fuel data can be obtained by pressing the
SKIP INFO button. See ªAnalog Control Buttonsº
in the Index.
The fuel data panel tells you all you need to know about
the fuel economy and how far you can travel with the
fuel remaining.Press the AVG button to display the average mile per
gallon (AVG MPG). You can also display it in metric
units by pressing the ENG MET button.
When AVG MPG is selected, the total distance is
divided by the total fuel used.
When the INST button (Instantaneous Fuel Economy) is
selected, you will see what the fuel economy is at that
instant. The computer takes a new reading twice every
second. It will show economy up to 70 miles per gallon
(or 2 L per 100 km).
To reset the average fuel economy, press the
INFORMATION SKIP button until the AVG MPG is
displayed on the Driver Information Center (DIC). Press
and hold the RESET NO button until both the fuel data
center and DIC display reads 0.0.
The RANGE display shows how far the computer thinks
you can travel with the fuel that is in the tank. The
computer does not know what driving conditions will be
like for the rest of your trip, so the range is estimated
based on the recent fuel economy. Therefore, the range
reading may change as your driving habits change.
Going from city to highway driving may increase the
range reading.
If the range display shows LO, you should stop for fuel
as soon as possible.

Trip Computer
Continual Variable Road Sensing
Suspension (CVRSS) (DeVille
Concours Only)
The CVRSS automatically adjusts the ride of your
vehicle. Automatic ride control is achieved through a
computer controller used to control and monitor the
suspension system. The computer controller receives
inputs from various sensors to determine the proper
system response. If the computer controller detects a
problem within the system, the DIC will display a
SERVICE RIDE CONTROL message. If this message
appears, have your vehicle serviced at your dealership.
Oil Life Indicator
This feature lets you know when to change the engine
oil. It's based on the engine oil temperatures and your
driving patterns. To see the display, press the
INFORMATION SKIP (SKIP INFO) button until XX
OIL LIFE LEFT appears. If you see 99% OIL LIFE
LEFT, 99 percent of your current oil life remains.
