DIC Warnings and
Messages
Messages are displayed on the 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.
Multiple messages may appear one
after another.
Some messages may not require
immediate action, but you can press
any of the DIC buttons, 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 DIC display because they
are more urgent. These messages
require action before they can be
cleared. 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.
BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE
This message displays when
the charging system detects that the
battery is being drained. You may
notice that the vehicle attempts
to reduce the drain for you by
turning off accessories, such as
interior fans, rear defogger,
and heated seats. Turn off all
accessories. If the vehicle is not
running, start and run the engine for
at least 10 minutes to allow the
battery to recharge. If the engine is
running and the condition persists,
see your dealer/retailer immediately.
