Driver Information Center (DIC)
The Driver Information Center (DIC) gives you the
status of many of your vehicle’s systems. The DIC is
also used to display warning/status messages. All
messages will appear in the DIC display located at the
bottom of the instrument panel cluster, below the
tachometer and speedometer. The DIC buttons are
located on the instrument panel, to the left of the
steering wheel.
The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. After a short
delay, the DIC will display the current driver and the
information that was last displayed before the engine
was turned off.
The top line of the DIC display shows the vehicle
system information and the warning/status messages.
The bottom line of the DIC display shows either the
odometer, the trip odometer A or the trip odometer B
information on the left side. Only one odometer can
appear at a time. See “Trip Information” under DIC
Controls and Displays on page 3-74 for information on
changing the display to show the odometer or trip
odometer information. The bottom line of the DIC display
also shows the outside temperature on the right side and
the shift lever position indicator in the center. See
Automatic Transmission Operation (STS) on page 2-28
or Automatic Transmission Operation (STS-V) on
page 2-32 for more information on the shift lever
positions.
When the sport mode is active, an S will appear next to
the shift position indicator on the center of the DIC
display. When the manual mode is active, an M
will appear on the DIC display. When the normal mode
is active, only the shift position indicator will appear.
While the Driver Shift Control (DSC) feature is active,
the DIC will change to show the selected gear. See
“Driver Shift Control (DSC)” under Automatic
Transmission Operation (STS) on page 2-28 or
Automatic Transmission Operation (STS-V) on
page 2-32 for more information.
If a problem is detected, a warning message will appear
on the display. Be sure to 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.
