2007 Acura TSX Settings

The multi -information display in the
instrument panel displays various
inform ation and messages when the
ignition switch is in the ON (II)
position. Some of the messages help
you operate your vehicle more
comfortably.
Others help to keep you aware of the
periodic maintenance your vehicle
needs for continued trouble-free
driving.
When you unlock and open the
driver’s door with the remote
transmitter, the display shows
‘‘Welcome DRIVER 1’’ or ‘‘Welcome
DRIVER 2’’ depending on which
remote transmitter you use. The
driver’s ‘‘ID’’ is detected by the
transmitter. For more information
about driver’s ‘‘ID’’, see page .If
you use the key to unlock the
driver’s door, the display only shows
‘‘Welcome.’’ This means the system
cannot recognize either ‘‘DRIVER 1’’
or ‘‘DRIVER 2.’’ In this case, you
cannot use the customized settings
on the multi-information display (see
page ).
When you turn the ignition switch to
the ACCESSORY (I) position, the
display shows ‘‘Goodbye.’’
There
are three types of messages;
normal display messages, engine oil
life and maintenance messages, and
system messages.
You can also customize some vehicle
control settings to your liking with
the multi -information display and the
two buttons on the steering wheel
(see page ). 86
