Driver Information Center (DIC)
The Driver Information Center (DIC) display is located on
the instrument panel cluster, below the speedometer. If
your vehicle has DIC buttons, they are located on the
steering wheel. The DIC can display information such as
the trip odometer, fuel economy, customization features,
and warning/status messages.
If your vehicle does not have DIC steering wheel buttons,
you will not have all of the features listed. Scroll through
the odometer, trip odometer, engine hours, and selected
range if your vehicle has an Allison Transmission
®
by
pressing the trip odometer reset stem located on the
instrument panel cluster. Turn off, or acknowledge, DIC
messages by pressing the trip odometer reset stem. See
Speedometer and Odometer on page 3-33 for information
on features for vehicles without DIC buttons.
If your vehicle has an Allison Transmission
®
and the shift
lever is in the MANUAL MODE (M) position, the DIC will
display the current gear range. The DIC will also display
the gear range as it is shifted up or down. For example,
if the gear range is currently set to 6, the DIC will display
(6) 5 4 3 2 1. When the gear range is shifted down one
time, the DIC will display 6 (5) 4 3 2 1. See Automatic
Transmission Operation on page 2-26 for more
information.
