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 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.
BATTERY NOT CHARGING
On some vehicles, if the battery is not charging during
operation, this message will appear on the DIC.
Driving with this problem could drain your battery.
Have the electrical system checked by your GM dealer
as soon as possible. SeeBattery Warning Light on
page 3-40andVoltmeter Gage on page 3-41. Pressing
any of the four DIC buttons will acknowledge the
message and clear it from the DIC display. If your
vehicle does not have the four DIC buttons, pressing
the trip odometer reset stem will acknowledge the
message and clear it from the DIC display.
BUCKLE PASSENGER
If your vehicle has the passenger sensing system,
this message reminds you to buckle the passenger’s
seat belt. SeePassenger Sensing System on page 1-82.
This message will display and a chime will sound when
the ignition is on, the driver’s seat belt is buckled, the
passenger’s seat belt is unbuckled with the passenger
airbag enabled, and the vehicle is in motion. You should
have the passenger buckle their seat belt.
