DRIVER INFORMATION DISPLAY (DID)
The DID displays are located in the center portion of the
cluster and consists of eight sections:1. LaneSense— If Equipped
The LaneSense system provides the driver with
visual and steering torque warnings when the
vehicle starts to drift out of its lane uninten-
tionally without the use of a turn signal.
•When LaneSense system is ON and ready the lane
lines and LaneSense indicator are the color gray.

•When LaneSense system is armed, the lane lines
change to white and the LaneSense indicator
changes to green.
•When LaneSense system senses a lane cross situa-
tion, the approaching lane line and the LaneSense
indicator change from white to yellow.
For further information, refer to “LaneSense— If
Equipped” in “Understanding The Features Of Your
Vehicle”.
2. DID Selectable Display Area
This area displays selectable information (Compass,
Temp, Range to Empty, Trip, Average MPG or L/100 km).
3. Electronic Park Brake Failure
This telltale indicates that there is an Electronic
Park Brake Fault. Please see your authorized
dealer for assistance.
4. Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various brake functions,
including brake fluid level and parking brake
application. If the brake light turns on it may
indicate that the parking brake is applied, that
the brake fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with
the anti-lock brake system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been
disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the
master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake
hydraulic system malfunction or that a problem with the
Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS)/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system.
In this case, the light will remain on until the condition
has been corrected. If the problem is related to the brake
booster, the ABS pump will run when applying the brake
and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt during each stop.

The light also will turn on when the parking brake is
applied with the ignition switch in the ON/RUN posi-
tion.
NOTE:This light shows only that the parking brake is
applied. It does not show the degree of brake application.
5. Driver Information Display (DID)
The DID display area will normally display the main
menu or the screens of a selected feature of the main
menu. The DID display area also displays “pop up”
messages that consist of approximately 60 possible warn-
ing or information messages. These pop up messages fall
into several categories:
•Five Second Stored Messages
When the appropriate conditions occur, this type of
message takes control of the main display area for
five seconds and then returns to the previous screen.
Most of the messages of this type are then stored (as
long as the condition that activated it remains active)
and can be reviewed from the “Messages” main
menu item. As long as there is a stored message, an
“i” will be displayed in the middle of the DID’s top
line. Examples of this message type are “Right Front
Turn Signal Lamp Out” and “Low Tire Pressure”.
•Unstored Messages
This message type is displayed indefinitely or until
the condition that activated the message is cleared.
Examples of this message type are “Turn Signal On”
(if a turn signal is left on) and “Lights On” (if driver
leaves the vehicle).
•Unstored Messages Until RUN
These messages deal primarily with the Remote Start
feature. This message type is displayed until the
ignition is in the RUN state. Examples of this message
type are “Remote Start Aborted - Door Ajar” and
“Press Brake Pedal and Push Button to Start”.

NOTE:The system will display the last known outside
temperature when starting the vehicle and may need to
be driven several minutes before the updated tempera-
ture is displayed. Engine temperature can also affect the
displayed temperature; therefor, temperature readings
are not updated when the vehicle is not moving.
9. Reconfigurable Telltale Area

The symbol illuminates (is armed) when
the 4WD Low switch is activated and the
transmission range indicator is in LOW or

speed control is ON. For further informa-
tion, refer to “Electronic Speed Control” in

12. Amber Reconfigurable Telltale Display
•Transmission Temperature Warning Light
This light indicates that there is excessive
transmission fluid temperature that might
occur with severe usage such as trailer
towing. It may also occur when operating
the vehicle in a high torque converter slip condition,
such as 4-wheel-drive operation (e.g., snow plowing,
off- road operation). If this light comes on, stop the
vehicle and run the engine at idle or faster, with the
transmission in NEUTRAL until the light goes off.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Transmission Tempera-
ture Warning Light illuminated will eventually cause
severe transmission damage or transmission failure.
WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when the
Transmission Temperature Warning Light is illumi-
nated you could cause the fluid to boil over, come in
contact with hot engine or exhaust components and
cause a fire.
•Low Fuel Telltale
When the fuel level reaches approximately 3.0
gal (11.0 L) this light will turn on, and remain
on until fuel is added.
•Rear Axle Lock Indicator — If Equipped
