Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Information and Message Center: Notes
The drivers information and message center has a liquid crystal display (LCD) and is located in the lower area of the speedometer.
The message center displays messages in text form for the driver, including odometer readings and trip computer data. It can also provide information normally covered by conventional warning lamps or indicate that a feature such as the cruise control is operating.
Located above the message center are two lamps, red for warning and amber for caution. When a message is displayed, the appropriate lamp will illuminate to attract the drivers attention and to signify the importance of the message.
