5-30 Instruments and Controls The images are projected through the HUD lens located on the driver side of the instrument panel. Notice: If you try to use the HUD image as a parking aid, you may misjudge the distance and damage your vehicle. Do not use the HUD image as a parking aid. The tap shift gear will also appear on the HUD if the vehicle has tap shift and it is active. The shift timing lights and a lateral acceleration (G-Force) indicator appear on ZL1 models only. The HUD information can be displayed in one of three languages: English, French, or Spanish. The speedometer reading and other numerical values can be displayed in either English or metric units. The language selection is changed through the radio and the units of measurement selection is changed through the trip computer in the Driver Information Center (DIC). HUD Display on the Vehicle Windshield The HUD information appears as an image focused out toward the front of the vehicle. When the ignition key is turned to ON/RUN, the HUD will display an introductory message for a short time, until the HUD is ready. See AM-FM Radio on page 7‑8 and Driver Information Center (DIC) on page 5‑26. Head-Up Display (HUD) { WARNING If the HUD image is too bright or too high in your field of view, it may take you more time to see things you need to see when it is dark outside. Be sure to keep the HUD image dim and placed low in your field of view. For vehicles with the Head-Up Display (HUD), some information concerning the operation of the vehicle is projected onto the windshield. This includes but is not limited to the speedometer reading, rpm reading, transmission position, outside air temperature, compass heading, and a brief display of the current radio station, including XM information or CD track. It will also display turn-by-turn information if the vehicle has OnStar® service.
