Control system

Depending on the selected menu
(

page 155), pressing the buttons on the

multifunction steering wheel will alter what
is shown in the multifunction display.

The information available in the multifunc-
tion display is arranged in menus, each
containing a number of functions or sub-
menus.

The individual functions are then found
within the relevant menu (radio or CD op-
erations under

Audio

, for example). These

functions serve to call up relevant informa-
tion or to customize the settings for your
vehicle.

In the

Settings

menu, instead of functions

you will find a number of submenus for
calling up and changing settings. For
instructions on using these submenus, see
“Submenus in the Settings menu”
(

page 166).

It is helpful to think of the menus, and the
functions within each menu, as being
arranged in a circular pattern.

The number of menus available in the sys-
tem depends on which optional equipment
is installed in your vehicle.
