Sending and Receiving Messages

The system has the ability to send brief text messages
to and from the vehicle, similar to an e-mail system. It
uses the vehicle's graphic display in the instrument clus-
ter for viewing and entering the messages.
The controls for the graphic display are the 4 buttons in
the stalk switch on the right side of the steering column.
1 "Esc" (Escape) is used to return to the previous
menu and cancel a setting/operation.
↵
2 " "or "SELECT" confirms a highlighted selection of
a menu or character.
3 "Up arrow" moves the cursor up and is used when
setting alpha-numeric values.
4 "Down arrow" moves the cursor down and is used
when setting alpha-numeric values.
For more information on using the graphic display con-
trols, see the Operator's Manual, or service information
on "Instrumentation" in group 38.

in the graphic display. Use the up/down buttons to
