Head Up Display (HUD) Description and Operation: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The head-up display (HUD) is a secondary display system that optically projects critical vehicle information off of the windshield. The head-up display (HUD) system has an electric tilt adjust that is controlled by the HUD up/down switch. Moving this switch directs the motor to move the HUD image up or down on the windshield. The HUD is also equipped with automatic dimming which gives the HUD the ability to sense outside light conditions, via a photo-cell and automatically adjusts the brightness levels. The HUD image brightness can be manually adjusted by moving the HUD dim switch. There is an ambient light sensor which allows the HUD image display to adapt to the brightness levels of the environment. During the start up of the vehicle all segments of the head-up display illuminate for 3 seconds.

There are 5 different HUD modes that can be selected by pressing and holding the PAGE button on the HUD switch:

  1. Speed only
  2. Speed and gage
  3. Speed, gage, and tach
  4. Speed and tach
  5. Tach only
