2011 Cadillac Escalade Display Setting Screen Messages Guide-DIC Buttons.1(Trip/Fuel): Press to scroll through the following menu items:

  • Odometer
    Press the trip/fuel button until ODOMETER displays. This display shows the distance the vehicle has been driven in either kilometers (km) or miles (mi).
    To switch between English and metric measurements, see “Units” later in this section.
  • Trip Odometer
    Press the trip/fuel button until the TRIP displays. This display shows the current distance travelled in either kilometres (km) or miles (mi)) since the last reset for the trip odometer. The trip odometer can be reset to zero by pressing the set/reset button while the trip odometer is displayed.
  • Fuel Range
    Press the trip/fuel button until FUEL RANGE displays. This display shows the approximate number of remaining kilometres (km) or miles (mi) the vehicle can be driven without refuelling. The display will show LOW if the fuel level is low.
    The fuel range estimate is based on an average of the vehicle’s fuel economy over recent driving history and the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank. This estimate will change if driving conditions change. For example, if driving in traffic and making frequent stops, this display may read one number, but if the vehicle is driven on a freeway, the number may change even though the same amount of fuel is in the fuel tank. This is because different driving conditions produce different fuel economies. Generally, freeway driving produces better fuel economy than city driving. The fuel range cannot be reset.
  • Average Economy
    Press the trip/fuel button until AVERAGE ECONOMY displays. This display shows the approximate average liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles per gallon (mpg).
