Driver Information Center (Dic); Dic Operation And Displays - Saturn 2008 VUE Green Line Hybrid Owner's Manual

Driver Information Center (DIC)

Your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC).
All information appears in the DIC display located in the
instrument panel cluster.
The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. After a short
delay, the DIC displays the information that was last
displayed before the engine was turned off.
The DIC displays trip, fuel, and vehicle system
information, and warning messages if a system problem
is detected.
The DIC also displays the compass direction, outside air
temperature, and shift position indicator at the top of the
DIC display. If there is a problem with the system that
controls the temperature display, the numbers will be
replaced with dashes. If this occurs, have the vehicle
serviced by your dealer/retailer. If an abnormal
temperature reading is displayed for an extended period
of time, consult your dealer/retailer. Under certain
circumstances, especially when the engine is idling,
a delay updating the temperature display is normal.
See DIC Compass on page 3-48 and Automatic
Transmission Operation on page 2-23 for more
information.
