Default DIC problems

I had my 2000 vette in basement storage for winter hooked up with a battery tender. I went to start it last week and the battery was fully charged and it fired right up. took for a spin and the DIC bonged and all this crazy unreadable stuff came on. I hit reset and it went off for a while but then reappeared. Came home and disconnected the battery for 1 hr. hoping it would reset it. Now the DIC reads FREINER AV PASSAGE ant then switches to PORTE ENTROUVERTE. How do I get it back to normal.

There are a row of buttons just to the right of dash gauges numbered # 1 -5 and reset. # 5 is for either English or metric on the gauge readings.

Post the codes here so we can see what is the problem. If you disconnect the battery you will have codes.
