Vehicle 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. For those you can
press SET to acknowledge that you
received the messages and to clear
them. Some messages cannot be
cleared because they are more
urgent. These messages require
action. 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. Possible
messages that can be displayed
and some information about them,
grouped by subject, are in the
following information.
