eter value and chassis battery voltage on the top
line, and driver selected parameters, such as the trip
odometer and fuel rate, on the second and third

Priority Messages
Priority messages (including warning messages) are
displayed in the LCD due to various inputs or data
messages. Unless noted otherwise, the priority mes-
sage will take over the whole screen, allowing mul-
tiple messages to be displayed in five second inter-

Self-Test
When the ignition is turned on, a required self-test
automatically begins. Gauge needles will reset to
zero during the self-test, and then immediately move
to the position dictated by the data received. During
this time, the warning lights, alarm (buzzer), and
driver display screen will also perform a self-test.
NOTE: The driver can activate or deactivate the
start-up self-test by accessing the setup menu.
Menu System
The menu system is shown on the driver display
screen once the self-test is finished. The menu sys-
tem responds to input from the driver and remains
active as long as the ignition is on. In order for the
driver to operate the menu system, the ignition must
be ON, and the park brake must be set (ON). The
main features of the menu system are described

which are saved when the ignition is turned off.
