Driver Information Center (DIC) Your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC). All messages appear in the DIC display located in the instrument panel cluster, below the tachometer. The DIC buttons are located on the center of the instrument panel, below the center outlets. The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. After a short delay, the DIC displays WELCOME DRIVER (1 or 2) if a personalized key 1 or 2 is used, and then the information that was last displayed before the engine was turned off. The driver number also corresponds to the numbers, 1 or 2, on the back of the remote keyless entry transmitters. The DIC displays the odometer, trip odometers, fuel economy, trip computer, vehicle system information, and compass display, if equipped. It also displays warning messages if a system problem is detected. In addition, the DIC displays phone numbers that are called using the OnStar® system, if equipped. See OnStar® System on page 2-47. On some vehicles, the outside air temperature automatically appears in the bottom right corner of the DIC display when viewing all of the information screens, except for the oil life screens. If the outside air temperature is at or below 37°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/retailer. The DIC also allows some features to be customized or personalized, if equipped. See DIC Vehicle Personalization (Uplevel Only) on page 3-76 for more information. DIC Operation and Displays The DIC has different modes which can be accessed by pressing the DIC buttons located on the center of the instrument panel. The buttons are the information, set/reset, and menu buttons. The button functions are detailed in the following pages. 3-50
