Getting to Know Your Corvette

Driver Information Center (DIC)
The DIC informs you of the status of
many of your vehicle’s systems and is
used to display driver personalization
features and warning/status messages.
The display is located at the bottom of
the instrument panel cluster.
The following DIC controls are located
on the instrument panel to the right of
the steering wheel.
(Fuel Information): Press this but-
ton to display fuel information.
(Gauge Information): Press this
button to display engine gauge informa-
tion and tire pressure.
TRIP: Press this button to display the
odometer, trip information and engine
oil life.
OPTION: Press this button to scroll
through the personalization features that
are available on your vehicle.
RESET: Press this button to reset sys-
tem functions when displayed or to
acknowledge messages on the DIC.
This button is also used to select per-
sonalization features within Options.
Warnings and Messages
If a problem is sensed in one of your
vehicle’s systems, a warning or mes-
sage will appear in the DIC display.
After a warning or message appears,
press the Reset button to clear the dis-
play screen for further use. Remember,
pressing Reset only makes the message
disappear; it does not resolve the
problem.
Check Warning Lights with OnStar
(if equipped)
If your Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(Check Engine Light) illuminates, or any
other warning message appears, you
can press the blue OnStar button and
speak to an OnStar Advisor. In many
vehicles, OnStar Advisors can access
certain diagnostic information and tell
you how serious the condition is and
what you should do about it.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Note: Your vehicle’s warnings and mes-
sages provide critical information that
can prevent damage to your vehicle.
Review your Owner Manual to become
familiar with the information displayed
and the action required.

Your Corvette features
Keyless Access and
Push Button Start. You
can keep the Keyless
Access transmitter in a
pocket or purse and
operate the doors,
trunk and ignition. The
transmitter communi-
cates with the Corvette’s computer
system via antennas.
