Information, Gauge and Warning (13.00)
Instrument Cluster (13.01)
Description
The Driver Information module contains the necessary electronic control units and memories to control, process and
present all necessary vehicle information to the driver.
1. Information on vehicle performance is presented in visible form using the instruments and gauges. These
devices present such information as Vehicle Speed,
Engine Speed, Fuel Level and Coolant Temperature.
2. Information on vehicle status is presented by an array of warning lights.
• Red - indicate immediate danger warnings
• Amber - indicate conditions which are serious but not immediately dangerous
• Green and Blue - indicate normal actuation of items such as turn signals or fog lamps
The message centres and the shift position Sensor
display are used to present information on the distance
recorders (trip meters), current gear mode and current
gear engaged.
3. The right message centre is used to display any warning/ information message text. These text messages may be
reinforced in some cases by illumination of the
appropriate warning lamps.
The following table defines all information and warning
lamps and their significance:
