Select Button

The select button is used to reset certain functions and
turn off or acknowledge messages on the DIC display.
The select button also toggles through the options
available in each personalization menu. For example, this
button will reset the trip odometers, turn off the FUEL
LEVEL LOW message, and toggle through the languages
you can select the DIC to display information in.

DIC Warnings and Messages

Warning messages are displayed on the DIC to notify the
driver that the status of the vehicle has changed and that
some action may be needed by the driver to correct the
condition. If there is more than one message that needs
to be displayed they will appear one after another. Some
messages may not require immediate action but you
should press the select button (if equipped) to
acknowledge that you received the message and clear it
from the display. Some messages cannot be cleared from
the display because they are more urgent; these
messages require action before they can be removed
from the DIC display. The following are the possible
messages that can be displayed and some information
about them.

CHANGE ENGINE OIL

This message is displayed when the engine oil needs to
be changed and service is required for your vehicle.
See Scheduled Maintenance on page 6-4 and Engine
Oil on page 5-16 for more information. Also see "GM Oil
Life System" previously in this section for information
on how to reset the message. This message will
clear itself after 10 seconds until the next ignition cycle.

OIL LIFE RESET

This message will appear on the display for about
10 seconds after resetting the change engine oil
message.

OIL PRESSURE LOW

If low oil pressure levels occur, this message will be
displayed on the DIC and a chime will sound. Stop the
vehicle as soon as safely possible and do not operate
it until the cause of the low oil pressure has been
corrected. Check your oil as soon as possible and have
your vehicle serviced.
