DIC Warnings and Messages
Warning messages are displayed on the Driver
Information Center (DIC) to notify the driver that the
status of the vehicle has changed and that some action
may be needed by the driver to correct the condition.
If there is more than one message that needs to be
displayed, they will appear one after another. Some
messages may not require immediate action, but you
should press any of the four DIC buttons on the steering
wheel to acknowledge that you received the messages
and to clear them from the display. If your vehicle does
not have DIC buttons on the steering wheel, press the trip
odometer reset stem, located on the instrument panel
cluster, to acknowledge messages and clear them from
the display.
Some messages cannot be cleared from the display
because they are more urgent. These messages require
action before they can be removed from the DIC display.
You should take any messages that appear on the
display seriously and remember that clearing the
messages will only make the messages disappear,
not correct the problem.
The following are the possible messages that can be
displayed and some information about them.
