You will hear multiple chimes when this message
is displayed. This message will remain displayed and
active until the issue is resolved.
If the engine oil temperature exceeds 320°F (160°C),
this message is displayed. You should check the engine
coolant temperature and engine oil level. If your
engine is too hot, see Engine Overheating on page 5-32.
Your vehicle may need service, so see your GM dealer.
You can monitor the oil temperature with the gages
button on the DIC.
HEADLAMPS SUGGESTED: If it is dark enough
outside and the headlamps and Twilight Sentinel
controls are off, this message will display. This message
informs the driver that turning on the exterior lamps is
recommended. It has become dark enough outside
to require the headlamps and/or other exterior lamps.
HIGH TIRE PRESSURE: To acknowledge the warning,
press the RESET button. After you press the RESET
button, a message will reappear every 10 minutes until
this condition changes. This message indicates that
the pressure in one of your tires is higher than 42 psi
(290 kPa). Next to the HIGH TIRE PRESSURE
message, you can see either LEFT FRONT, RIGHT
FRONT, LEFT REAR, or RIGHT REAR to indicate
to you which tire is higher than 42 psi (290 kPa).
You can receive more than one tire pressure message
at a time. To read other messages that may have
been sent at the same time, press the RESET button.
If a tire pressure message appears on the DIC, stop as
soon as you can. Have the tire pressures checked
and set to those shown on your Tire Loading Information
Label. See Extended Mobility Tires on page 5-62 and
Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-64.
HOT ENGINE AIR CONDITIONING OFF: This
message displays when the engine coolant becomes
hotter than the normal operating temperature. To avoid
added strain on a hot engine, the air conditioning
compressor is automatically turned off. When the coolant
®
temperature returns to normal, the A/C operation will
automatically resume. You can continue to drive
your vehicle. If this message continues to appear, have
the system repaired by your GM dealer as soon as
possible to avoid compressor damage.
ICE POSSIBLE: This message displays when the
outside air temperature is cold enough to create icy
road conditions.

is less than 10 percent full and the display is turned
off. A multiple chime will also sound when this message
is displayed. See Fuel Gage on page 3-47.
