This message will be displayed for another
three seconds after BUCK appears in the display.
This display lets the driver know which driver's remote
keyless entry transmitter is being used and the
driver's customization features.
The DIC controls are
located to the left of the
steering column on
the instrument panel.
The DIC will be in the last mode displayed when the
engine was turned off. To select a different mode, press

each press of
MODE.
MODE: This button lets you cycle through the options
on the display.
SET: This button is used to select and set the options
to your preference.
The DIC will always display the compass reading and
the outside temperature. If the temperature is below
38°F (3"C), the temperature reading will toggle between
displaying the temperature and the word ICE for two
minutes.
AVG ECONOMY (Average Economy): Average fuel
economy is viewed as a long term approximation of your
overall driving conditions. To learn the average fuel
economy from a new starting point, press and hold the
SET button while the average fuel economy is
displayed on the DIC. The average fuel economy will
set to zero.
INST ECONOMY (Instant Economy): Instant fuel
economy varies with your driving conditions, such as
acceleration, braking and the grade of the road
being traveled.
FUEL RANGE: The fuel range is an estimated distance
that your vehicle can travel on the remaining fuel.
The fuel economy used to calculate the range is based
on your driving history since the last reset of the
average speed.
