If any other active warnings including “GATE” or “GAS-
CAP” are present, they will be shown in the VF display
and will also continue to cycle. If the vehicle is moving,
three single chimes will occur (one chime for each
complete display cycle, three cycles total). Afterward, the
display will continue to cycle only (no chimes).
If the TRIP/RESET button is pressed while the VF
warnings are being displayed, the VF display will revert
back to only displaying the odometer/trip odometer
mileage.
