DIC Operation and Displays
The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. After a
short delay the DIC will display the information
that was last displayed before the engine
was turned off.
If a problem is detected, a warning message will
appear on the display. Pressing the trip stem
will acknowledge any warning or service
messages. Pressing any of the DIC steering wheel
buttons — trip information, fuel information,
customization, or select button — will also
acknowledge any warnings or service messages.
You should take any message that appears on
the display seriously and remember that clearing
the message will only make the message
disappear, not correct the problem.
The DIC has different modes which can be
accessed by pressing the four DIC buttons located
on the steering wheel. These buttons are trip
information, fuel information, customization, and
select. The button functions are detailed in
the following pages.

Tire Inspection and Rotation
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles
(8 000 to 13 000 km).
Any time you notice unusual wear, rotate your
tires as soon as possible and check wheel
alignment. Also check for damaged tires or wheels.
SeeWhen It Is Time for New Tires on page 426
andWheel Replacement on page 432for
more information.
Make sure the spare tire is stored securely. Push,
pull, and then try to rotate or turn the tire. If it
moves, use the wheel wrench to tighten the cable.
For information on storing or removing the
spare tire, seeChanging a Flat Tire on page 436.
The purpose of regular rotation is to achieve
more uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. The
rst rotation is the most important. SeeScheduled
Maintenance on page 479.When rotating your tires, always use the correct
rotation pattern shown here.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front
and rear in ation pressures as shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label. SeeLoading
Your Vehicle on page 330, for an example of
the label and its location on your vehicle.
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)
sensors will need to be reset after a tire rotation.
See “TPMS Sensor Identi cation Codes” under
Tire Pressure Monitor System on page 420.
