DIC Warnings and Messages
These messages appear if there is a problem detected
in one of your vehicle’s systems.
You must acknowledge a message to clear it from the
screen for further use. To clear a message, press
the set/reset button.
Be sure to take any message that appears on the
screen seriously and remember that clearing the
message will only make the message disappear,
not the problem.

This message displays when the system detects that

You can monitor battery voltage on the Driver Information
Center (DIC) by pressing the trip/fuel button until

When you reset the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message by clearing it from the display, you still must
