Driver Information Center (DIC)

The Driver Information Center (DIC) displays information about the vehicle. It also displays warning messages if a system problem is detected. See Vehicle Messages  for more information. All messages appear in the DIC display located in the center of the instrument panel cluster.

On some models, the DIC may have some warning lights or indicators shown in the top portion of the display. See Warning Lights, Gauges, and Indicators  for more information.

The vehicle may also have features that can be customized through the controls on the radio. See Vehicle Personalization  for more information.
