Uplevel DIC with Trip Computer The Driver Information Center (DIC) control buttons and the message display screen are located above the radio. The DIC gives you important safety and maintenance facts concerning the vehicle. The status of many of the vehicle's systems along with driver personalization menus and warning messages about your vehicle's systems may display on the DIC screen. The outside temperature automatically appears on the bottom right corner of the DIC display screens. If the outside temperature is below 38°F (3°C), the temperature reading will toggle between displaying the outside temperature and the word ICE for two minutes. If there is a problem with the system that controls the temperature display, the letters OC (Open Circuit) or SC (Short Circuit) will appear on the display. If this occurs, have the vehicle serviced by your dealer. The vehicle's transaxle position, and the direction the vehicle is traveling will also appear on the DIC screen. The compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the need to manually set the compass. However, under certain circumstances, such as during a long distance cross-country trip, it will be necessary to compensate for compass variance and reset the zone through the DIC. See "Setting the Compass" later in this section for more information. The buttons on the DIC trip computer are: Gages 2 (Gages): Press this button to access the OIL LIFE REMAINING, TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE, BATTERY, ENGINE HOURS AND ENGINE BOOST modes. 3-53
