BATTERY VOLTS
This display shows the current battery voltage. If the
voltage is in the normal range, the value will display.
For example, the display may read 13.2 BATTERY
VOLTS. If the voltage is low, the display will have
LOW after it. If the voltage is high, the display will have
HIGH after it. Your vehicle's charging system regulates
voltage based on the state of the battery. The battery
voltage may fluctuate when viewing this information
on the DIC. This is normal. See Charging System Light
on page 4‑57 for more information.
If there is a problem with the battery charging system,
the DIC may display a message. See DIC Warnings
and Messages on page 4‑76 and Electric Power
Management on page 4‑37 for more information.
Tire Pressure
This display shows the pressure for each tire in either
pounds per square inch (psi) or kilopascals (kPa). If the
tire pressure is normal, the value will display. If the tire
pressure is low, LOW will appear on the display with the
value. See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 6‑58 and
DIC Warnings and Messages on page 4‑76 for more
information. Press the information button to scroll
through the following displays:
LF TIRE: This display shows the pressure in the driver
side front tire.
RF TIRE: This display shows the pressure in the
passenger side front tire.
LR TIRE: This display shows the pressure in the driver
side rear tire.
RR TIRE: This display shows the pressure in the
passenger side rear tire.
If the tire pressure display shows dashes instead of a
value, there may be a problem with your vehicle. If this
consistently occurs, see your dealer for service.
ENGINE OIL LIFE
If your vehicle has this display, it shows the estimated
oil life remaining. If you see 99% ENGINE OIL LIFE on
the display, that means that 99% of the current oil life
remains.
When the oil life is depleted, the CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON message will appear on the display. Change the
oil as soon as possible. In addition to the engine oil life
system monitoring the oil life, additional maintenance is
recommended in the Maintenance Schedule in this
manual. See Scheduled Maintenance on page 7‑3
and Engine Oil on page 6‑16.
After an oil change, reset the ENGINE OIL LIFE display.
To reset, see Engine Oil Life System on page 6‑20.
The display will show 100% ENGINE OIL LIFE after it
has been reset. Also clear the CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON message from the display.
