Special windshield
The special windshield is part of the Head-up
display system.
The shape and coating of the special wind-
shield enable this system to function.
If damaged, have the special windshield re-
placed by an authorized service center or an-
other qualified service center or repair shop.
Check Control
Principle
The Check Control system monitors vehicle
functions and notifies you of malfunctions in
monitored systems.
A Check Control message is displayed as a
combination of indicator/warning lights and
text messages on the instrument cluster and,
if applicable, on the Head-up display. In addi-
tion, an acoustic signal may sound and a text
message may appear on the control display.
Some Check Control messages are hidden au-
tomatically after approx. 20 seconds, but they
will be stored. Stored Check Control messages
can be displayed on the control display. Urgent
Check Control messages are permanently dis-
played but can be hidden temporarily.
Hiding Check Control messages
Permanently displayed Check Control mes-
sages can be hidden temporarily. These mes-
sages are automatically displayed again after
approx. 8 seconds.
An arrow icon next to the Check Control
message indicates whether the Check Control
message can be hidden.
To hide Check Control messages, tilt
the knurled wheel on the steering
wheel to the left.
