Driver Information
Center (DIC)
The DIC displays information about
your vehicle. It also displays warning
messages if a system problem is
detected. The DIC also allows some
features to be customized. See DIC
Vehicle Customization on page 4-32
for more information. All messages
will appear in the DIC display located
in the center of the instrument panel
cluster.
When the ignition is turned on, a
vehicle system check is performed
and the status is shown on the
DIC display. If there are no warnings
or service reminders, the display
shows a series of welcome screens.
When the ignition is turned off,
the odometer appears on the display
for a short period of time unless a
service reminder is active. Active
service reminders are displayed for
10 seconds before the odometer
appears. The odometer will
reappear on the display when the
driver door is opened. For more
information on the warnings and
messages see DIC Warnings
and Messages on page 4-27.
