Fuel Gage; Driver Information Center (Dic) - Cadillac 2008 Escalade Owner's Manual

Fuel Gage

The gage will first indicate empty before you are out of
fuel, and you should get more fuel as soon as possible.
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.
3-48
When the ignition is on,
the fuel gage tells you
about how much fuel you
have left in your tank.

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 3-61 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 3-49 and DIC
Vehicle Customization on page 3-61 for the displays
available.
