DIC Warnings and Messages
These messages will appear if there is a problem
sensed in one of your vehicle's systems. Vehicles that
are ®rst sold in Canada will have a number after
each message. This number helps to identify the
problem. You must then press INFO or INFO RESET to
clear the display screen for further use. However, be
sure to take any message that appears on the display
screen seriously and remember that pressing the
INFO or INFO RESET button will only make the
message disappear, not the problem.
DIC messages can also be displayed in French,
German, Spanish and Japanese. Contact your dealer to
have the language display adjusted for your vehicle.
BATTERY NOT CHARGING ± 7:This message
will appear if the battery is not being charged. Have the
electrical system checked by your dealership at your
earliest convenience.
BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE ± 27:This message is
displayed when the vehicle has detected that the battery
voltage is dropping beyond a reasonable point. The
battery saver system will start reducing certain features
of the vehicle that you may not be able to notice. At
the point that features are disabled, this message
is displayed. It means that the vehicle is trying to save
the charge in the battery. Turn off unnecessary
accessories to allow the battery to recharge.BATTERY VOLTAGE HIGH ± 8:This message shows
that the electrical charging system is overcharging
(more than 16 volts). To avoid being stranded, have the
electrical system checked by your dealership. You
can reduce the charging overload by using the
accessories. Turn on the lamps and radio, set the
climate control on AUTO and the fan speed on HI, and
turn the rear window defogger on. You can monitor
battery voltage on the DIC by pressing the INFO button.
The normal range is 11.5 to 15.5 volts when the
engine is running.
BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW ± 6:This message will
appear when the electrical system is charging less than
10 volts or if the battery has been drained. If this
message appears immediately after starting, it is
possible that the generator can still recharge the battery.
The battery should recharge while driving but may
take a few hours to do so. Consider using an auxiliary
charger (be sure to follow the manufacturer's
instructions) to boost the battery after returning home or
to a ®nal destination. If this message appears while
driving or after starting your vehicle and stays on, have
it checked immediately to determine the cause of
this problem. To help the generator recharge the battery
quickly, you can reduce the load on the electrical
system by turning off the accessories. You can monitor
battery voltage on the DIC by pressing the INFO
button. The normal range is 11.5 to 15.5 volts.

CHANGE ENGINE OIL ± 82:This means that the life
of the engine oil has expired and it should be changed
within 200 miles. After an oil change, the Oil Life
Indicator must be reset. See
Oil Life Indicator on
page 3-77. SeeEngine Oil on page 5-13.
CHANGE TRANS FLUID ± 47:This message will
appear when it is time to change the transaxle ¯uid. See
Part A: Scheduled Maintenance Services on page 6-4for the proper ¯uid and change intervals.
CHECK BRAKE FLUID ± 37:This message will
display if the ignition is in ON to inform the driver that
the brake ¯uid level is low. Have the brake system
serviced by a technician as soon as possible. See
Brake
System Warning and Parking Brake Indicator Light on
page 3-43
.
CHECK COOLANT LEVEL ± 2:This message will
appear when there is a low level of engine coolant. Have
the cooling system serviced by a technician as soon
as possible. See

when the fuel supply is less than 5 gallons (18.9 L)
and the display is turned off. A single chime will also
sound when this message is displayed.
CHECK GAS CAP ± 61:This message will appear if
the gas cap has not been fully tightened. You should
recheck your gas cap to ensure that it's on properly.
CHECK OIL LEVEL ± 36:For correct operation of the
low oil sensing system, your vehicle should be on a
level surface. A false CHECK OIL LEVEL message may
appear if the vehicle is parked on a grade. The oil
level sensing system does not check for actual oil level
if the engine has been off for a short period of time,
and the oil level is never checked while the engine is
running. If the CHECK OIL LEVEL message appears,
and your vehicle has been parked on level ground
with the engine off for at least 30 minutes, the oil level
should be checked by observing the oil dipstick. Prior to
checking the oil level, be sure the engine has been
off for a few minutes and your vehicle is on a level
surface. Then check the dipstick and add oil if
necessary. See
Engine Oil on page 5-13.
