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

Fuel Gage

If the fuel supply gets low, the FUEL LEVEL LOW
message will appear on the Driver Information Center
(DIC) and a single chime will sound. See DIC Warnings
and Messages on page 3-53 for more information.
All of the following situations 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.
•
The gage may change when you turn, stop quickly
or accelerate quickly.
The fuel gage shows
approximately how much
fuel is in the fuel tank.
It works only when
the engine is on.
•
It takes a little more or less fuel to fill the tank than
the gage indicated. For example, the gage may
have indicated that the tank was half full, but
it actually took a little more or less than half the
tank's capacity to fill the tank.

Driver Information Center (DIC)

The Driver Information Center (DIC) gives you the status
of many of your vehicle's systems. The DIC is also used
to display warning/status messages. All messages will
appear in the DIC display located at the bottom of the
instrument panel cluster, below the tachometer and
speedometer. The DIC buttons are located on the
instrument panel, to the left of the steering wheel.
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.
The top line of the DIC display shows the vehicle system
information and the warning/status messages. The
bottom line of the DIC display shows the odometer on
the left side, the outside air temperature on the right side,
and the shift position indicator in the center. For more
information on the shift position indicator, see Automatic
Transmission Operation on page 2-30.
