Uplevel DIC with Trip Computer
The Driver Information Center (DIC) control buttons and
the message display screen are located above the radio.
The DIC gives you important safety and maintenance
facts concerning the vehicle. The status of many of the
vehicle's systems along with driver personalization
menus and warning messages about your vehicle's
systems may display on the DIC screen.
The outside temperature automatically appears on the
bottom right corner of the DIC display screens. If the
outside temperature is below 38ÉF (3ÉC), the temperature
reading will toggle between displaying the outside
temperature and the word ICE for two minutes. If there is
a problem with the system that controls the temperature
display, the letters OC (Open Circuit) or SC (Short
Circuit) will appear on the display. If this occurs, have the
vehicle serviced by your dealer.
The vehicle's transaxle position, and the direction the
vehicle is traveling will also appear on the DIC screen.The compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the
need to manually set the compass. However, under
certain circumstances, such as during a long distance
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to compensate
for compass variance and reset the zone through
the DIC. See ªSetting the Compassº later in this section
for more information.
The buttons on the DIC trip computer are:
