PASSENGER SEATBELT IS NOT FASTENED

This message reminds you to buckle the passenger’s seat belt.

This message will display and a chime will sound when the ignition is on, the driver’s seat belt is buckled, the passenger’s seat belt is unbuckled with the passenger airbag enabled and the vehicle is in motion. You should have the passenger buckle their seat belt.

The reminder will be repeated if the ignition is on, the vehicle is in motion, the driver is unbuckled and the passenger is still unbuckled and the passenger airbag is enabled. If the passenger’s seat belt is already buckled, this message and chime will not come on.

REDUCED ENGINE POWER

This message will display when the vehicle’s engine power is reduced. This happens when driving conditions, such as climbing a steep hill, make the transaxle overwork in a gear that may cause damage to the vehicle’s engine or transaxle. Reduced engine power can affect the vehicle’s ability to accelerate.

This message will display and a chime will sound only when the ignition is in RUN. Press any of the DIC buttons to acknowledge this message and to clear it from the screen.

This message will continue to display for two seconds if it has not been acknowledged when the engine is turned off. It will also re-display for two seconds if the message has been acknowledged, but the condition still exists when the engine is turned off.

If the condition still exists, the message will re-appear when the engine is turned on.

Anytime this message is on, the vehicle should be taken to your GM dealer for service as soon as possible.
