2-89 DIC Personal Choice Programming
The DIC is used to program the personal choices of two
drivers. The drivers are recognized as DRIVER #1 and
DRIVER #2. The DIC will identify a person as
UNKNOWN DRIVER if they are neither DRIVER #1
nor DRIVER #2. You will let the DIC know which
driver you are by using your remote keyless entry
transmitter or by pressing one of the MEMORY buttons
located on the driver's door. Each remote keyless entry
transmitter was pre
-programmed to belong to
DRIVER #1 or DRIVER #2. Each transmitter may
be programmed differently for each driver.
After you press the button with the unlock symbol on
your transmitter and the ignition is in RUN, the DIC will
automatically display the identified driver number. The
vehicle will recall the personal choice settings that were
last made to correspond to your transmitter, including
your radio and comfort control settings. See ªComfort
Controls, Personal Choiceº in the Index.If you unlock the vehicle using your door key instead of
your transmitter, the DIC will not change drivers and
will recall the information from the last transmitter used
or the last driver using one of the MEMORY buttons.
If this happens and you were not the last driver of the
vehicle, simply press your correct driver number on the
appropriate MEMORY button or press the button with
the unlock symbol on your transmitter.
The DIC can be used to program the following personal
choice features available with your vehicle:

Memory Seats

Automatic Door Locks

Security Feedback

Delayed Locking

Perimeter Lighting

Parallel Park Assist Mirror

Window Lockout
See ªPersonal Choice Featuresº in the Index.

choice appears on the DIC.
You can also program this feature to recall your memory
seat position or the exit seat position.

RECALL choice appears, and then choose

(If Equipped)
This feature allows two different drivers to store and
recall their own climate control settings for temperature,
air delivery mode, fan and passenger climate control
(on/off) status. The personal choice settings recalled are
determined by the transmitter used to enter the vehicle.

keyless entry transmitter is pressed, and the ignition is in
RUN, the climate control will adjust to the last settings
of the identified driver. The settings can also be changed
by pressing one of the MEMORY buttons (1 or 2)
located on the driver's door, until you hear two beeps.
When adjustments are made, the new settings are
automatically saved for that driver.

Your vehicle has the dual automatic ComforTemp
climate control system. The following information tells
you how it works.
You will hear a beep each time a button is pushed and a
small light on the button will indicate which buttons are
active. The lights are on all buttons except TEMP, FAN
and AIR FLOW. The display will show fan speed,
comfort level setting and airflow direction for a few
seconds whenever any button, except for rear defog, is
pushed, and then it will display the outside temperature.
The outside temperature reading is most accurate when
the vehicle is moving.
