OIL PRESSURE WARNING LAMP : System Description
INFOID:0000000006221709
 IPDM E/R reads the ON/OFF signals fr om the oil pressure switch and transmits the oil pressure switch sig-
nal to the combination meter via BCM with the CAN communication.
 The combination meter turns the oil pressure warning lamp ON (at the time of a reduction in hydraulic pres-
sure)/OFF (except at the time of a reduction in hydraulic pressure) according to the oil pressure switch signal
received via CAN communication.

BCM transmits a meter ring illumination request signal to the illumination meter when all the following opera-
tional conditions are satisfied. When receiving the meter ring illumination request signal from BCM via CAM
communication, the combination meter increases illuminat ion brightness of the combination meter to the set
brightness level in stages. After a certain period of time, the meter illumination gradually dims to be turned
OFF.
*: Close the driver side door with the intelligent key left inside the vehicle.

 The ambient sensor input value that is displayed on “Data Monitor” of CONSULT-III is the value before the
correction. It may not match the indica ted temperature on the information display.
 After removal and installation of the battery and comb ination meter, an ambient sensor-detected tempera-
ture is indicated on the information display.
 Depending on engine heat or heat on the road surfaces, an ambient temperature may be indicated higher
than actual one.
INTERRUPT INDICATION
 The combination meter displays an interrupt regarding a warning, alert, and maintenance on the information
display, based on signals received from each unit and switch.
 When conditions are satisfied, the normal screen swit ches to a warning screen to display an interrupt.
Door Open Warning
 When all the following operating conditions are satisfied, the combination meter displays a door open warn-
ing on the information display by an interrupt.
 The combination meter judges showing/hiding of “door open warning”, according to the signals below:
Parking Brake Release Warning
 When all the following operating conditions are satisfi ed, the combination meter displays a parking brake
release warning on the information display by an interrupt.
 The combination meter judges showing/hiding of “parki ng brake release warning”, according to the signals
below:
