Vehicle Messages

Messages displayed on the DIC
indicate the status of the vehicle
or some action that may be needed
to correct a condition. Multiple
messages may display one after
the other.

The messages that do not
require immediate action can
be acknowledged and cleared by
pressing SET/CLR. The messages
that require immediate action cannot
be cleared until that action is
performed. All messages should
be taken seriously and clearing
the messages does not correct
the problem.
