Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm). For vehicles with the Stop/Start system, when the ignition is on, the tachometer indicates the vehicle status. When pointing to AUTO STOP, the engine is off but the vehicle is on and can move. The engine could auto-start at any time. When the indicator points to OFF, the vehicle is off. When the engine is on, the tachometer will indicate the rpm. The tachometer may vary by several hundred rpm, during Auto Stop mode, when the engine is shutting off and restarting.

Fuel Gauge2024 Cadillac XT6-Instrument Cluster-fig 4
When the ignition is on, the fuel gauge indicates the approximate amount of fuel left in the tank. There is an arrow near the fuel gauge pointing to the side of the vehicle the fuel door is on. When the indicator is empty, the low fuel light comes on. There still is a little fuel left, but the vehicle should be refueled soon. The fuel gauge may:

  • Take a little more, or less fuel to fill up than it indicates. For example, the gauge may have indicated the tank is half full, but it actually will take a little more, or less than half the tank’s capacity to fill the tank.
  • Moves a little while turning a corner, speeding up, or braking.
  • Take a few seconds to stabilize after the ignition is turned on and goes back to empty when the ignition is turned off. These are normal conditions, none of which indicate a problem with the fuel gauge.

Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge2024 Cadillac XT6-Instrument Cluster-fig 5Metric2024 Cadillac XT6-Instrument Cluster-fig 6
English
This gauge measures the temperature of the vehicle’s engine. While driving under normal operating conditions, if the red LED is illuminated, the engine is too hot. Pull off the road, stop the vehicle, and turn off the engine as soon as possible.
