Head-Up Display (HUD) Center
Console Controls
The ignition must be in the RUN posi-
tion for HUD to be activated. Anytime
HUD is activated, a Grand Prix icon
(GP) will be displayed. The icon will
remain on for anywhere from 4 seconds
to 2 minutes depending on the ambient
temperature of the system. When the
icon disappears, HUD will display the
format screen activated during the last
RUN ignition cycle.
The HUD displays vital information
"through" the windshield, eliminating the
need for the driver to look away from
the road. The information will appear to
be a virtual image located at the front of
the vehicle.
HUD displays can be displayed in
English or Metric units and in English,
French or Spanish language. Your
choice can be selected through the
vehicle's Driver Information Center.
Refer to your Owner Manual for the
procedure.
The HUD control switch is located in the
center console next to the gear shifter.
Intensity
When the circle in the outer ring is at the
upper arrow, the HUD will be turned off.
Rotate the ring to the right to turn the
HUD on and increase the intensity of the
display to full brightness. The HUD
system will automatically brighten or dim
as the ambient light increases or
decreases.
Position
Press the UP/DOWN switches to move
the display within a limited range to the
desired viewing position.
Formats
Press the center "page" button to cycle
through the three available HUD
formats.
Note: Certain HUD information that is
always active will shrink or move when
other information is activated. This infor-
mation may also include an ISO symbol
(registered with the International
Organization for Standardization) repre-
senting the active function or feature.
