Cadillac 2008 Escalade EXT Automobile User Manual


 
Here are some situations you may experience with
your fuel gage. None of these indicate a problem with
the fuel gage.
At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
fuel gage indicated. For example, the gage 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 gage goes back to empty when you turn off
the ignition.
Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC).
The DIC displays information about your vehicle.
It also displays warning messages if a system problem
is detected. The DIC also allows some features to
be customized. See DIC Vehicle Customization
on page 3-57 for more information.
All messages will appear in the DIC display located
in the center of the instrument panel cluster.
The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. After a
short delay, the DIC will display the information that
was last displayed before the engine was turned off.
See DIC Operation and Displays on page 3-45 and
DIC Vehicle Customization on page 3-57 for the
displays available.
