{Warning
In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield is
warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass
display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass receives
its heading and other information
from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna, StabiliTrak,
and vehicle speed information.
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in an open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass system
will automatically determine when a
GPS signal is restored and provide
a heading again.

occasion that the charging system
does not detect an object, and the
object gets wedged between the
mobile phone and the charger,
remove the mobile phone and
allow the object to cool before
removing it from the charging
pocket, to prevent burns.
To charge a mobile device:
1. Remove all objects from the charging pocket. The system
may not charge if there are any

Warning Lights,
Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can
signal that something is wrong
before it becomes serious enough
to cause an expensive repair or
replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gauges could
prevent injury.
Some warning lights come on briefly
when the propulsion system is
started to indicate they are working.
When one of the warning lights
comes on and stays on while
driving, or when one of the gauges
shows there may be a problem,
check the section that explains what
to do. Waiting to do repairs can be
costly and even dangerous.
Instrument Cluster
The instrument cluster displays a
preview of information that includes
electric range, charging, odometer,and battery status. This happens
upon entry when the driver door is
opened before starting the vehicle.
The CHARGING OVERRIDE/
INTERRUPTION OCCURRED
message may display to indicate
that a charging override or
interruption has occurred due to one
or more of the following events:
.
Override of the charge settings
by the owner using OnStar.
. Unintended interruption of AC

Here are some things that owners
ask about. None of these show a
problem with the fuel gauge:
.At the service station, the fuel
pump shuts off before the gauge
reads full.
. It takes a little more or less fuel
to fill up than the gauge
indicated. For example, the
gauge may have indicated the
tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than
half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank.
. The gauge takes a few seconds
to stabilize after the vehicle is
turned on, and goes back to
empty when the vehicle is
turned off.Driver Efficiency Gauge
This gauge appears on the left side
of the display in the Classic
Enhanced configuration.
This gauge is a guide for efficient
driving. Keep the ball green and in
the center of the gauge to help
maximize EV range and fuel
economy.
See Driving for Better Energy
Efficiency 027.
accel : If the ball turns yellow and
travels above the center of the
gauge, acceleration is too
aggressive to optimize efficiency. brake :
If the ball turns yellow and
travels below the center of the
gauge, braking is too aggressive to
optimize efficiency.
In the Modern display
configurations, the light ring in the
center of the display acts as an
efficiency gauge. It is green when
driving efficiently and turns yellow
when acceleration or braking is too
aggressive.
