Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC).
The DIC displays information about your vehicle.
It also displays warning messages if a system problem
is detected.
All messages will appear in the DIC display located at
the top of the instrument panel cluster.
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.
The DIC also displays a shift lever position indicator on the
bottom line of the display. See Automatic Transmission
Operation on page 2-30 for more information.
The outside air temperature also displays on the DIC
when viewing the trip and fuel information. The outside
air temperature automatically appears in the top right
corner of the DIC display. If there is a problem with
the system that controls the temperature display,
the numbers will be replaced with dashes. If this occurs,
have the vehicle serviced.
If your vehicle has DIC buttons, see “DIC Operation
and Displays (With DIC Buttons)” later in this section

on page 3-75 for the displays available.
If your vehicle does not have DIC buttons, see
