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.
