DIC Warnings and Messages Warning messages are displayed on the 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. More than one message may appear at one time. They will appear one after the other. The messages are displayed for three seconds each. Some messages may not require immediate action but you should press and release the trip odometer reset stem to acknowledge that you received the message and clear it from the display. Each message must be acknowledged individually. 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. The following are the possible messages that can be displayed and some information about them. AC (Air Conditioning) OFF This message will be displayed when the engine coolant temperature is too high and the air conditioning in your vehicle needs to be turned off. See Engine Overheating on page 5-28 and Climate Control System on page 3-19 for more information. It will be displayed along with the ENG HOT message. 3-39
