DIC Operation and Displays

The DIC comes on when the ignition is on. If your
vehicle has the uplevel audio system, the time and
outside temperature will be shown on the first line of the
display and the DIC information will be shown on the
second line of the display.
The DIC has different modes which can be accessed by
pressing the DIC buttons. The button functions are
detailed in the following.

TRIP A or TRIP B: Press the information button until
TRIP A or TRIP B is displayed. This shows the
current distance traveled since the last reset for each
trip odometer in either miles or kilometers. Both
odometers can be used at the same time. Each trip
odometer can be reset to zero separately by pressing
and holding the enter button for a few seconds while the
desired trip odometer is displayed.
FUEL RANGE: Press the information button until FUEL
RANGE is displayed. This shows the remaining
distance you can drive without refueling. It is based on
fuel economy and the fuel remaining in the tank.
The fuel economy data used to determine fuel range is
an average of recent driving conditions. As your
driving conditions change, this data is gradually updated.
Fuel range cannot be reset.
ECON (Economy): Press the information button until
ECON is displayed. Average fuel economy is how
many miles per gallon or liters per 100 kilometers your
vehicle is getting based on current and past
driving conditions.
Press and hold the enter button while ECON is
displayed to reset the average fuel economy. Average
fuel economy will then be calculated starting from
that point. If the average fuel economy is not reset, it
will be continually updated each time you drive.
