MODE (Mode Button):
Press this button to cycle through three modes of
operation
-- Off, Compass/Temperature and Trip
Computer mode.
In the Trip Computer mode, pressing the MODE
button cycles through the five displays. Press the
MODE button after the last Trip Computer display to
return the DIC to the OFF mode.
Off: No driver information is displayed in this mode
of operation.
Compass/Temperature Mode: One of eight compass
readings and the outside temperature are displayed. If
the temperature is below 38 F (3 C), the word “ICE” is
displayed for two minutes.
Compass Variance
Compass variance is the difference between magnetic
north and geographic north. In some areas of the
country, the difference is great enough to cause the
compass to give false readings. If this occurs, the
compass variance must be set.
Setting the Variance
Turn the ignition on and cycle the DIC to the
Compass/Temperature mode. Press the RESET button
for approximately five seconds. The last entered
variance zone number and “VAR” will be displayed.
Press the MODE button until the proper variance
number on the map is shown. Press the RESET button to
set the new variance zone and resume normal operation.
