DIC Warnings and Messages These messages display if there is a problem in one of the vehicle's systems. They override any other mode or screen the Driver Information Center (DIC) may be in. Some messages can be cleared from the DIC screen. In order to do this, the message must be acknowledged. To acknowledge or clear the message from the screen, press the set/reset button on the DIC. See DIC Controls and Displays (Base Level DIC) on page 186 or DIC Controls and Displays (Uplevel DIC with Trip Computer) on page 190 for DIC button descriptions. Other warning messages are not allowed to be cleared until the problem indicated by the warning message is taken care of. When the problem indicated by the message is resolved, it can be acknowledged and the screen can be reset. Be sure to take any message that appears on the DIC screen seriously and remember that clearing the messages that are able to be acknowledged, will only make the message disappear, not correct the problem. A/C OFF FOR ENGINE PROTECTION This message displays when the engine coolant becomes hotter than the normal operating temperature. To avoid added strain on a hot engine, the air conditioning compressor is automatically turned off. When the coolant temperature returns to normal, the air conditioning compressor turns back on. The vehicle can then continue to be driven. This message comes on while the ignition is in RUN. A chime sounds for two seconds when this message is displayed. Press the set/reset button to acknowledge this warning message and to clear it from the screen. This message continues to display for three seconds if it has not been acknowledged when the engine is turned off. It also re-displays for three seconds if the message has been acknowledged, but the condition still exists when the engine is turned off. If the condition still exists, the message re-appears when the engine is turned on. 200
