DIC Warnings and Messages
Messages are displayed on the DIC to notify the
driver that the status of the vehicle has changed
and that some action may be needed by the driver
to correct the condition. Multiple messages may
appear one after another. Some messages may not
require immediate action, but you can press the
set/reset button to acknowledge that you received
the message and clear it from the DIC display.
Pressing any of the DIC buttons also acknowledges
and clears any messages. Some messages cannot
be cleared from the DIC display because they are
more urgent. These messages require action
before they can be cleared. You should take any
messages that appear on the display seriously and
remember that clearing the messages will only
make the messages disappear, not correct the
problem. The following are the possible messages
that can be displayed and some information
about them.
AUTOMATIC LIGHT CONTROL OFF
This message displays when the automatic
headlamps are turned off. See
on page 170
for more information.
AUTOMATIC LIGHT CONTROL ON
This message displays when the automatic
headlamps are turned on. See

BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE
This message displays when the system detects
that the battery voltage is dropping beyond a
reasonable level. The battery saver system starts
reducing certain features of the vehicle that you
may be able to notice. At the point that the features
are disabled, this message is displayed. It means
that the vehicle is trying to save the charge in the
battery.
Turn off all unnecessary accessories to allow the
battery to recharge.
The normal battery voltage range is
11.5 to 15.5 volts.
