Here are four things some owners ask about. All these
things are normal and do not indicate that anything
is wrong with the fuel gage.
• At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
• It takes a little more (or less) fuel to fill up than the
gage reads. For example, the gage read half full,
but it took more (or less) than half of the tank’s
capacity to fill it.
• The gage pointer may move while cornering,
braking or speeding up.
• The gage may not indicate empty when the ignition
is turned off.
Low Fuel Warning Light
The light next to the fuel gage will come on briefly when
you are starting the engine.
This light comes on when the fuel tank is low on fuel.
To turn it off, add fuel to the fuel tank.
Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC).
All messages will appear in the DIC display located
in the instrument panel cluster, below the tachometer.
The DIC buttons are located on the center of the
instrument panel, below the center outlets.
The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. After a short
delay, the DIC will display WELCOME DRIVER (1 or 2)
if a personalized key 1 or 2 is used, and then the
information that was last displayed before the engine
was turned off.
The DIC displays the odometer, trip odometers, fuel
economy, trip computer, vehicle system information,
and compass display, if equipped. It also displays
warning messages if a system problem is detected.
In addition, the DIC displays phone numbers that
are called using the OnStar
®
system, if equipped.
