Dic Warnings And Messages - Hummer 2008 H2 Owner's Manual

DIC Warnings and Messages

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. Multiple messages may appear
one after another.
Some messages may not require immediate action,
but you can press any of the DIC buttons on the
instrument panel or the trip odometer reset stem on
the instrument panel cluster to acknowledge that
you received the messages and to clear them from
the display.
Some messages cannot be cleared from the DIC
display because they are more urgent. These messages
require action before they can be cleared. You should
take any messages that appear on the display seriously
and remember that clearing the messages will only
make the messages disappear, not correct the problem.
The following are the possible messages that can
be displayed and some information about them.
3-56
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
This message displays when the engine oil needs to
be changed. When you change the engine oil, be sure
to reset the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message.
See Engine Oil Life System on page 5-16 for information
on how to reset the message. See Engine Oil on
page 5-13 and Scheduled Maintenance on page 6-4
for more information.
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE
This message displays when the pressure in one
or more of the vehicle's tires needs to be checked. This
message also displays LEFT FRONT, RIGHT FRONT,
LEFT REAR, or RIGHT REAR to indicate which tire
needs to be checked. You can receive more than one
tire pressure message at a time. To read the other
messages that may have been sent at the same time,
press the set/reset button or the trip odometer reset
stem. 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 the Tire Loading
Information label. See Tires on page 5-55, Loading Your
Vehicle on page 4-44, and Inflation - Tire Pressure on
page 5-61. The DIC also shows the tire pressure values.
See "DIC Operation and Displays (Using DIC Buttons)"
earlier in this section. If the tire pressure is low,
the low tire pressure warning light comes on.
See Tire Pressure Light on page 3-41.
