Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC).
All messages will appear in the DIC display located in
the center of the instrument panel cluster. The DIC
buttons are located on the center of the instrument
panel.
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 displays trip, fuel, and vehicle system
information, and warning messages if a system problem
is detected. The top of the DIC display shows the
shift lever position indicator. See Automatic
Transmission Operation (3.4L V6 with 5-Speed) on
page 2-22 or Automatic Transmission Operation (3.6L
V6 with 6-Speed) on page 2-25 for more information.
If your vehicle has these feature, the DIC also displays
the compass direction and the outside air temperature
when viewing the trip and fuel information. 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 by
your dealer/retailer. If an abnormal temperature reading
is displayed for an extended period of time, consult
your dealer/retailer. Under certain circumstances,
especially when the engine is idling, a delay updating
the temperature display is normal.
The DIC also allows some features to be personalized.
See DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-59 for
more information.
