140 Instruments and Controls
DIC information is broken
down into two main zones:
Left Zone :Displays on the
instrument cluster to the left
of the speedometer.
Right Zone : Displays on the
instrument cluster to the right
of the speedometer.
SorT: Press to move left or
right between the interactive
display zones in the cluster.
Press the thumbwheel to
select.
yorz: Use the thumbwheel
to scroll up or down in a list.
Press the thumbwheel to
select.
DIC Info Tiles Selection
The following is the list of all
possible DIC Info Tiles.
Depending on the vehicle,
some may not be available.
Left Zone
Battery Voltage : Displays the
current battery voltage. The
battery voltage can fluctuate
while viewing this information
on the DIC. This is normal.
Coolant Temperature :
Displays the coolant
temperature in either degrees
Celsius (°C) or degrees
Fahrenheit (°F).
eLSD : Displays the amount of
rear differential coupling when
the Electronic Limited-Slip
Differential (eLSD) is active
and functioning during vehicle
operation. A reading of 1% is
an open differential and 100% is locked. It is normal for the
value to make small or large
changes due to driving
conditions and driver inputs.
For the V-Series Blackwing
models, the eLSD maintains
some coupling even if the
vehicle is stationary or not
accelerating. Coupling values
of 3% and up are typical. See
Limited-Slip Differential
0302.
Engine Boost : If equipped,
displays engine manifold
pressure relative to ambient
air pressure. It will display
boost pressure generated by
the turbocharging system.
Instantaneous Fuel
Economy/Economy Trend :
Displays the current fuel
economy in liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km) or
miles per gallon (mpg). This
number reflects only the
approximate fuel economy and
changes frequently as driving
conditions change. This display
cannot be reset.

Lighting 159
The exterior and interior lamps
remain on for a set amount of
time, then automatically
turn off.
The interior lights turn on
when the vehicle is turned off.
The exterior lamps turn off
immediately by turning the
exterior lamp control off.
This feature can be changed.
On the infotainment home
screen, select the Settings
icon
TVehicleTExit Lighting.
Battery Load
Management
The vehicle has Electric Power
Management (EPM), which
estimates the battery's
temperature and state of
charge. It then adjusts the
voltage for best performance
and extended life of the
battery.
When the battery's state of
charge is low, the voltage is
raised slightly to quickly bring
the charge back up. When thestate of charge is high, the
voltage is lowered slightly to
prevent overcharging. If the
vehicle has a voltmeter gauge
or a voltage display on the
Driver Information Center
(DIC), you may see the voltage
move up or down. This is
normal. If there is a problem,
an alert will be displayed.
The battery can be discharged
at idle if the electrical loads
are very high. This is true for
all vehicles. This is because
the generator (alternator) may
not be spinning fast enough at
idle to produce all the power
that is needed for very high
electrical loads.
A high electrical load occurs
when several of the following
are on, such as: headlamps,
high beams, fog lamps, rear
window defogger, climate
control fan at high speed,
heated seats, engine cooling
fans, and loads plugged into
accessory power outlets.
EPM works to prevent
excessive discharge of the
battery. It does this by
balancing the generator's
output and the vehicle's
electrical needs. It can
increase engine idle speed to
generate more power,
whenever needed. It can
temporarily reduce the power
demands of some accessories.
Normally, these actions occur
in steps or levels, without
being noticeable. In rare cases
at the highest levels of
corrective action, this action
may be noticeable to the
driver. If so, a DIC message
might be displayed. If a battery
message is displayed, it is
recommended that the driver
reduce the electrical loads as
much as possible. See Driver
Information Center (DIC) (Base
Level)
0136 or
Driver Information Center
(DIC) (Uplevel) 0139.

174 Infotainment System
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as
making or receiving calls,
charging, or just having the
mobile device on may cause
static interference in the radio.
Unplug the mobile device or
turn it off if this happens.
Multi-Band Antenna
The multi-band roof antenna
may be used for radio,
navigation, and other
communication systems,
depending on the equipped
options. To ensure clear
reception, keep the antenna
clear of obstructions, such as
snow and ice. If the vehicle has
a sunroof, and it is open, or a
roof loaded with cargo,
reception may be affected.
Audio Players
Avoiding Untrusted
Media Devices
When using media devices
such as USB and mobile
devices, consider the source.
Untrusted media devices could
contain files that affect
system operation or
performance and should be
avoided.
USB Port
Audio stored on a USB device
may be listened to.
Depending on your vehicle, it
may be equipped with two
USB ports in the center
console under the armrest and
another two on the center
stack. These ports are for
data and charging. There may
also be two USB ports at the
rear of the center console and
a USB port on each side of the
third row seats for
charging only.
Caution
To avoid vehicle damage,
unplug all accessories and
disconnect all accessory
cables from the vehicle
when not in use. Accessory
cables left plugged into the
vehicle, unconnected to a
device, could be damaged or
cause an electrical short if
the unconnected end comes
in contact with liquids or
another power source such
as the accessory power
outlet.
Playing from a USB
A USB mass storage device
can be connected to the
USB port.
Audio extensions supported
by the USB may include:
.MP3
.AAC
.OGG
.3GP
