Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates engine oil life
based on vehicle use and displays a DIC message
when it is necessary to change the engine oil and filter.
The oil life system should be reset to 100% only
following an oil change.

DIC display shows OIL-LIFE RESET.
4. Press and hold the reset button until the DIC display shows ACKNOWLEDGED. This will tell
you the system has been reset.
5. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF. For vehicles with the 2.2L (VIN Code V) or
2.4L (VIN Code B) engines, you can also reset
the system as follows:
1. Turn the ignition key to ON/RUN with the engine off.
2. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal slowly three times within five seconds.
3. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF, then start the engine.
See Engine Oil Life System on page 6‑23.
Fuel E85 (85% Ethanol)
Vehicles that have the 2.2L L4 engine (VIN Code B) or

Compass Calibration
If after a few seconds the display does not show a
compass direction, (N for North for example), there may
be a strong magnetic field interfering with the compass.
Interference can be caused by a magnetic antenna
mount, note pad holder, or similar object. If CAL
appears in the compass window, the compass may
need to be reset or calibrated.
To calibrate the compass:1. Make sure CAL is displayed. If CAL is not displayed, press and hold the compass button until
CAL displays.
2. While CAL displays, drive the vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the display reads a
direction.
Compass Variance
The mirror is set to zone eight. If you do not live in zone
eight or drive out of the area, the compass variance
needs to be changed to the appropriate zone. To adjust for compass variance:
1. Find the current location and variance zone number on the following zone map.
2. Press and hold the compass button until a Z and azone number displays.
3. Once the zone number displays, press the compass button repeatedly until the correct zone
number is reached. If CAL displays in the compass
window, the compass may need calibration. See
“Compass Calibration” listed previously.

The rear vision camera system display in the rearview
mirror may turn off or not appear as expected due to
one of the following conditions. If this occurs the left
indicator light on the mirror will flash.
.A slow flash may indicate a loss of video signal,
or no video signal present during the reverse cycle.
.A fast flash may indicate that the display has
been on for the maximum allowable time during
a reverse cycle, or the display has reached an
Over Temperature limit.
The fast flash conditions are used to protect the
video device from high temperature conditions.
Once conditions return to normal the device will
reset and the green indicator will stop flashing.
During any of these fault conditions, the display will be
blank and the indicator will continue to flash as long as
the vehicle is in R (Reverse) or until the conditions
return to normal.
Pressing and holding
zwhen the left indicator light is
flashing will turn off the video display along with the left
indicator light.

Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed.1. Disengage the cruise control by applying the brake pedal, but do not turn it off. Accelerate to a higher
speed and reset the cruise control.
2. If the cruise control system is already engaged, press the RES+ button. Hold it there until the
desired speed is reached, and then release the
button. To increase the vehicle speed in small
amounts, press the RES+ button briefly and then
release it. Each time this is done, the vehicle goes
about 1.6 km/h (1 mph) faster.
Reducing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
If the cruise control system is already engaged,
.Push and hold the SET− button until the lower
speed desired is reached, then release it.
.To slow down in small amounts, push the
SET− button briefly. Each time this is done, the
vehicle goes about 1.6 km/h (1 mph) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase the vehicle
speed. When you take your foot off the pedal, the
vehicle slows down to the cruise control speed you
set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works on hills depends upon
the vehicle speed, load and the steepness of the hills.
When going up steep hills, the accelerator pedal might
need to be applied to maintain the vehicle speed. When
going downhill, the brake might need to be applied or
the vehicle might have to be shifted to a lower gear to
keep the vehicle speed down. When the brakes are
applied the cruise control turns off.
Ending Cruise Control
To end cruise control, step lightly on the brake pedal or
the clutch pedal if the vehicle has a manual
transmission.
Stepping on the brake pedal or clutch pedal will only
end the current cruise control session.
Press
Ito turn the system completely off.

Antilock Brake System (ABS)
Warning Light
For vehicles with the
Antilock Brake System
(ABS), this light comes
on briefly when the
engine is started.
If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by your
dealer/retailer. If the system is working normally the
indicator light then goes off. If the ABS light stays on, turn the ignition off. If the light
comes on while 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 stays on,
or comes on again while driving, the vehicle needs
service. If the regular brake system warning light is not
on, the vehicle still has brakes, but not antilock brakes.
If the regular brake system warning light is also on, the
vehicle does not have antilock brakes and there is a
problem with the regular brakes. See
Brake System
Warning Light on page 4‑30.
For vehicles with a Driver Information Center (DIC),
see DIC Warnings and Messages
on page 4‑48for
all brake related DIC messages.

calculated by the engine control module. These
values are approximate and may change with the air
conditioning load, generator output, air temperature, air
pressure, and fuel octane. SPEEDOMETER & G FORCE :
The G FORCE meter
displays lateral acceleration. While turning right,
G forces are felt on the left, and vice versa. PEAK
values are stored indefinitely, and can be reset with

activity. Available modes are:
Readouts #1
SHIFT LIGHTS/GEAR INDICATION: The shift lights
provide visual identification of engine speed for a
transmission gear. Shift light minimum and maximum
RPM settings can be viewed and configured in the
SETUP screen. The gear indication on manual
transmission vehicles is calculated by the engine
control module. The gear is only displayed when
enough torque is available to determine the selected
forward gear.

temperature and the odometer display. This mode
shows the temperature outside of the vehicle in either
degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or degrees Celsius (°C) and
the total distance the vehicle has been driven in
either miles (mi) or kilometers (km). The outside air
temperature appears on the left side of the DIC display
and the odometer appears on the right side of the
display.
To change the DIC display to English or metric units,
see “UNITS” underDIC Vehicle Personalization
on
page 4‑54.

TRIP A or TRIP B
Press the information button until TRIP A or TRIP B
display. These modes show the current distance
traveled since the last reset for each trip odometer in
either miles (mi) or kilometers (km). Both odometers
can be used at the same time.
To reset the trip odometer to zero, press and hold the
reset button for a few seconds while the desired trip
odometer is displayed.
FUEL RANGE
Press the information button until FUEL RANGE
displays. This mode shows the remaining distance
you can drive without refueling in either miles (mi) or
kilometers (km). It is based on fuel economy and the
fuel remaining in the tank.
When the fuel level is low, FUEL RANGE LOW
displays.
The fuel economy data used to determine fuel range is
an average of recent driving conditions. As your driving
conditions change, this data is gradually updated. The
FUEL RANGE mode cannot be reset.
MPG (L/100 KM) AVG (Average)
Press the information button until MPG (L/100 KM)AVG displays. This mode shows how many miles per
gallon (mpg) or liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) your
vehicle is getting based on current and past driving
conditions.
To reset the average fuel economy, press and hold the
reset button while MPG (L/100 KM) AVG is displayed.
Average fuel economy is then calculated starting from
that point. If the average fuel economy is not reset, it is
continually updated each time you drive.
MPG (L/100 KM) INST (Instantaneous)
Press the information button until MPG (L/100 KM) INST
displays. This mode shows the current fuel economy at
a particular moment and changes frequently as driving
conditions change. This mode shows the instantaneous
fuel economy in miles per gallon (mpg) or liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km). Unlike average fuel
economy, this screen cannot be reset.
