Energy Usage Score
The Energy Usage Score screen
provides an estimate of the factors
that influence energy usage since
the last full charge of the high
voltage battery. A positive score is
desired to reach the vehicle’s
electric and fuel economy rating.
.Technique includes accelerating
and braking.
. Terrain includes road conditions,
such as hills, rain, and snow and
may be affected by wind and tire
pressure.
. Climate Settings includes how
the heating and air conditioning
are used. .
Outside Temperature includes
the effect that hot or cold air has
on vehicle aerodynamics.
. Score is the sum of the
individual scores.
The individual scores provide an
understanding of how electric and
fuel economy are different from
day-to-day, even when traveling the
same route.
All values are reset after a complete
charge and may not be stable until
approximately 16 km (10 mi) have
been driven.
Energy Details
The Energy Details screen displays
how energy is being used since the
last time the high voltage battery was fully charged. It includes
Driving and Accessories, Climate
Settings, and Battery Conditioning.
The circle graph displays
these percentages. The total energy
used displays at the bottom of the
screen.
Driver Information
Center (DIC)
The DIC is displayed in the

system monitoring the oil life,
additional maintenance is
recommended. SeeMaintenance
Schedule 0327.
Remember, the Oil Life display must
be reset after each oil change. It will
not reset itself. Also, be careful not
to 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 the
engine oil life system, press and
hold
Vfor several seconds while
the Oil Life display is active. See
Engine Oil Life System 0242.
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 amber.
See Tire Pressure Monitor System
0 280 andTire Pressure Monitor
Operation 0281. 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 pressing and
holding
Vwhile this display is
active.
Timer : This display can be used as
a timer. To start the timer, press
V
while this display is active. The
display will show the amount of time
that has passed since the timer was
last reset. To stop the timer, press

and the timer is running. To reset
the timer to zero, press and hold
V
while this display is active.
Speed Limit : Shows the current
speed limit. The information for this
page comes from a roadway
database.
Follow Distance Indicator : The
current follow time to the vehicle
ahead is displayed as a time value
on this page. Coolant Temperature :
Shows the
engine coolant temperature in either
degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees
Fahrenheit (°F).
Blank Page : The Blank Page
display allows for no information to
be displayed in the cluster info
display areas.

the tires have been rotated.

Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor
System. See Tire Pressure
Monitor Operation 0281.
Check that all wheel nuts are
properly tightened. See “Wheel
Nut Torque” underCapacities
and Specifications 0339.
{Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose
after time. The wheel could come
off and cause an accident. When
changing a wheel, remove any
rust or dirt from places where the
wheel attaches to the vehicle. In
an emergency, a cloth or a paper
towel can be used; however, use
a scraper or wire brush later to
remove all rust or dirt.
Lightly coat the center of the
wheel hub with wheel bearing
grease after a wheel change or
tire rotation to prevent corrosion
or rust build-up. Do not get
grease on the flat wheel
mounting surface or on the
wheel nuts or bolts.
When It Is Time for New
Tires
Factors such as maintenance,
temperatures, driving speeds,
vehicle loading, and road conditions
affect the wear rate of the tires.
Treadwear indicators are one way to
tell when it is time for new tires.
Treadwear indicators appear when
the tires have only 1.6 mm (1/16 in)
or less of tread remaining.
See Tire Inspection 0284 andTire
Rotation 0284.
The rubber in tires ages over time.
This also applies to the spare tire,
if the vehicle has one, even if it is
never used. Multiple factors
including temperatures, loading
conditions, and inflation pressure
maintenance affect how fast aging
takes place. GM recommends that
tires, including the spare if
equipped, be replaced after six
years, regardless of tread wear. The
tire manufacture date is the last four
digits of the DOT Tire Identification
Number (TIN) which is molded into
one side of the tire sidewall. The
first two digits represent the week
(01–52) and the last two digits, the
year. For example, the third week of
the year 2010 would have a
four-digit DOT date of 0310.

message displays, change the
engine oil and filter as soon as
possible, within the next 1 000 km/
600 mi. The engine oil and filter

System 0242. More frequent
changes may be required when the
vehicle is exposed to a corrosive
environment, such as areas of high
humidity, along an ocean coast,
and/or areas that apply road salt
during winter.

perform this work. If the engine oil
life system is reset accidentally,
service the vehicle within 5 000 km/
