•In#night#mode the display, the graphics, and the
indexes are adjustable on 8 levels. Adjusted accord-
ingly even the light intensity of the display of the

Odometer
The odometer display shows the total distance the ve-
hicle has been driven.
U.S. Federal regulations require that upon transfer of
vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the purchaser the
correct mileage that the vehicle has been driven. If your
odometer needs to be repaired or serviced, the repair
technician should leave the odometer reading the same
as it was before the repair or service. If s/he cannot do so,
then the odometer must be set at zero, and a sticker must
be placed in the door jamb stating what the mileage was
before the repair or service.
It is a good idea for you to make a record of the odometer
reading before the repair/service, so that you can be sure
that it is properly reset, or that the door jamb sticker is
accurate if the odometer must be reset at zero.
Tachometer
Reports the number of Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) of
the engine.
Fuel Gauge
The digital indicator on the display indicates the amount
of fuel in the fuel tank.
When the fuel tank level drops to 1.3-1.85 gallons (5-7
liters) remaining, a light will illuminate, a message will
display, and a chime will sound.

WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or
others could be badly burned by steam or boiling
coolant. You may want to call an authorized dealer
for service if your vehicle overheats. If you decide to
look under the hood yourself, see “Maintaining And
Caring For Your Vehicle.” Follow the warnings under
the “Cooling System Pressure Cap” paragraph.
WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
The EVIC/DID display consists of three sections:
1. The reconfigurable top line where compass, direction,
and outside temperature are displayed.
•Right side default to Ignition Status for those with
push button ignition.
2. The main display area where the menus and pop up
messages are displayed.
3. The reconfigurable telltales section.
The main display area will normally display the main
menu or the screens of a selected feature of the main
menu. The main display area also displays#pop up#
messages that consist of approximately 60 possible warn-
ing or information messages. These pop up messages fall
into several categories:
•Five Second Stored Messages
When the appropriate conditions occur, this type of
message takes control of the main display area for five
seconds and then returns to the previous screen. Most of
the messages of this type are then stored (as long as the
condition that activated it remains active) and can be
reviewed from the#Messages#main menu item. As long
as there is a stored message, an#i#will be displayed in the
EVIC’s compass/outside temp line. Examples of this
message type are#Right Front Turn Signal Lamp Out#
and#Low Tire Pressure.#

•Unstored Messages
This message type is displayed indefinitely or until the
condition that activated the message is cleared. Examples
of this message type are#Turn Signal On#(if a turn signal
is left on) and#Lights On#(if driver leaves the vehicle).
•Unstored Messages Until RUN
These messages deal primarily with the Remote Start
feature. This message type is displayed until the ignition
is in the MAR/RUN state. Examples of this message type
are#Remote Start Aborted - Door Ajar#and#Press Brake
Pedal and Push Button to Start.#
•Five Second Unstored Messages
When the appropriate conditions occur, this type of
message takes control of the main display area for five
seconds and then returns to the previous screen. Ex-
amples of this message type are#Memory System Un-
available - Not in Park#and#Automatic High Beams On.#
Telltales On The EVIC/DID Instrument Cluster
Low Brake Fluid
•What Does It Mean
The light comes on when the brake fluid
level in the reservoir drops below the mini-
mum level, due to a possible loss of liquid
from the circuit.

•What Does It Mean
The simultaneous firing ofBRAKE lights
(Red) and(Amber) with the engine
running indicates a failure of the Elec-
tronic Breakforce Distribution (EBD) sys-
tem or that the system is not available. In
this case, with heavy braking, the rear
wheels may lock early and increase the possibility
of skidding.
The dedicated message will appear on the display.
•What To Do
Drive with extreme caution, immediately reach the
nearest authorized dealer for the verification of the
system.

NOTE:
•If the Air Bag Warning Lightdoes not illuminate
when placing the ignition in MAR/RUN, or stays
on during MAR/RUN (together with the message
displayed), it is possible that there is a fault in
restraint systems. In this case, the air bag or the
pretensioners might not deploy in the event of an
accident or, in a more limited number of cases,
deploy incorrectly. Before continuing, please contact
an authorized dealer for the immediate service of
the system.
•The failure of the Air Bag Warning Lightis de-
clared by the illumination of the iconin the
instrument cluster display. In this case, the Air Bag
Warning Light may not report any anomalies of the
restraint systems. Before continuing, please contact

•What To Do
In the case of normal gear:stop the car, shut off the
engine, and check that the level of coolant inside the
tank is not below the minimum (MIN). In this case,
wait for the engine to cool, then slowly and carefully
open the cap, fill with coolant, make sure it is
between the MIN and MAX marks. Also, check for
coolant leaks. If at the next start-up, the light (or the
icon on the display) would once again illuminate,
contact an authorized dealer.
In the case of heavy use of the car (e.g. In terms of
performance):slow down and, if the light stays on,
stop the car. For two or three minutes, keep the
engine running and slightly accelerate to help the
flow of coolant in the system. Then, turn the engine
off. Check for the correct level of coolant as described
above.

Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) System Failure
•What Does It Mean
By placing the ignition in the MAR/RUN
position, the indicator light illuminates but
should go out after a few seconds.
The light will remain on until the ABS condition has
been corrected. If the problem is related to the brake

TPMS Failure
•What Does It Mean
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your ve-
hicle has tires of a different size than the size indi-
cated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label, you should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale
when one or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pres-
sure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
