DIC Warnings and Messages
Warning messages are displayed on the Driver
Information Center (DIC) to notify the driver that the
status of the vehicle has changed and that some action
may be needed by the driver to correct the condition.
If there is more than one message that needs to be
displayed they will appear one after another. Some
messages may not require immediate action, but you
should press any of the four DIC buttons on the steering
wheel or the trip odometer reset stem on the instrument
panel cluster to acknowledge that you received the
messages and to clear them from the display. Some
messages cannot be cleared from the display because
they are more urgent. These messages require action
before they can be removed from the DIC display. You
should take any messages that appear on the display
seriously and remember that clearing the messages will
only make the messages disappear, not correct the
problem. The following are the possible messages that
can be displayed and some information about them.
