Chevrolet 2008 Corvette Automobile User Manual


 
Driver Information Center (DIC)
The Driver Information Center (DIC) gives you the status
of many of your vehicle’s systems. It is also used to
display driver personalization features and warning/status
messages. The DIC display is located on the instrument
panel cluster below the speedometer and tachometer,
directly above the steering column. The DIC buttons
are located on the instrument panel, to the right of the
instrument panel cluster.
The DIC comes on when the ignition is turned on.
After displaying CORVETTE BY CHEVROLET, the DIC
will display the current driver and the information that
was last displayed before the engine was turned off.
If a problem is detected, a warning message will appear
on the DIC 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.
If your vehicle has the Head-Up Display (HUD) and
you use the Manual Paddle Shift feature, the gear
will display in the HUD, except if your vehicle has
the Navigation system and the HUD is displaying
turn-by-turn guidance information. If the HUD is
displaying turn-by-turn guidance information, the
gear instead displays in the DIC. See “Manual Paddle
Shift” under Automatic Transmission Operation on
page 2-26 and “Head-Up Display (HUD)” in the index
of the Navigation system manual for more information.
