WARNING AND INFORMATION
MESSAGES
Most displayed warning messages have an
associated warning indicator, which will
illuminate on to indicate the message priority.
Also from time to time information messages
will be displayed.
If more than one message is active, each is
displayed in turn for two seconds in order of
priority.
Messages take priority over the trip computer
data and will be displayed when the ignition is
on.
Note: The message centre information
messages and their meanings, are detailed
where necessary within the appropriate subject
sections.
Clearing messages from the display
It is possible to temporarily clear certain
warning or information messages from the
message centre.

warning triangle icon appears on the
touch-screen, where shown.
Touch the icon to temporarily stop the
currently displayed message from appearing.
Once the message is removed, the colour of
the warning icon in the message centre

Note: Certain warnings, that are critical for the
safe operation of the vehi cle, cannot be cleared
from the display.
Note: If multiple messages are displayed, this
process can be repeated to remove all
messages from the display.
Removed messages will display again,
whenever the ignition is switched on, until the
fault is rectified (i.e. in this example, when the
washer fluid is topped up).
WARNING
If a warning indicato r is displayed,
stop the vehicle as soon as possible
when it is safe to do so. Do not ignore
critical warning messages. Failure to do so
may result in serious damage to the vehicle.
