Driver Information Center (DIC)
Your vehicle may have a DIC. If it does, the DIC will show
information about the vehicle and the surroundings.
E/M (English/Metric Button): You can change the
display to a metric or English reading at any time
by pressing E/M.
MODE: Press this button to cycle through three modes
of operation off, compass/temperature and trip
computer mode.
Off: No driver information is displayed in this mode
of operation.
Compass/Temperature Mode: One of eight compass
readings and the outside temperature are displayed.
If the temperature is below 38°F (3°C), the temperature
reading will toggle between displaying the outside
temperature and the word ICE for two minutes.
Trip Computer Mode: In the trip computer mode,
pressing the MODE button cycles through the five
displays. Press the MODE button after the last trip
computer display to return the DIC to the OFF mode.
See “Trip Computer” later in this section for more
information.
Compass Variance
Compass variance is the difference between magnetic
north and geographic north. In some areas of the
country, the difference is great enough to cause the
compass to give false readings. If this occurs, the
compass variance must be set.
