The Driver Information Center (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.

If a problem is detected, a warning message will appear on the display. Pressing and releasing the trip odometer reset stem on the DIC will acknowledge some current warnings or service messages. Some messages will only clear once the required action has been taken.

The DIC has different modes which can be accessed by pressing the trip odometer reset stem on the DIC. These modes are explained in the following section. The DIC trip odometer reset stem is located on the instrument panel cluster next to the DIC display. To scroll through the available functions, press and release the reset stem.

Trip Information

Odometer

The odometer is automatically displayed on the DIC when you start the vehicle. The odometer shows the total distance the vehicle has been driven in either miles or kilometers.

Trip Odometer

Press and release the reset stem until TRIP appears on the DIC display. This shows the current distance traveled since the last reset of the trip odometer in either miles or kilometers.

Press and hold the reset stem for approximately four seconds to reset the trip odometer.

GM Oil Life System™

Press the reset stem until OIL LIFE RESET appears, alternating between OIL LIFE and RESET, on the DIC display. The GM Oil Life System™ calculates an estimate of the oil's remaining useful life. The CHANGE OIL message will alert you to change your oil on a schedule consistent with your driving conditions. Always reset the OIL LIFE message after an oil change.

To reset the message, perform the following steps:

1. With the engine off, turn the key to the ON position.
2. Press and release the reset stem until OIL LIFE is shown on the DIC display.
3. Once OIL LIFE is shown on the DIC display, press and hold the reset stem until several beeps sound. This confirms that the system has been reset. The DIC display will show OIL LIFE after the system has been reset after an oil change.

In addition to the GM Oil Life System™ monitoring the oil life, additional maintenance is recommended in the Maintenance Schedule in this manual. See Engine Oil and Scheduled Maintenance for more information.
