Selectable features

You can select different features for the message center to display by
using the message center controls located below the message center
display. You will hear a tone when you press one of these controls.
However, the message center will display the appropriate warning
message if it detects a warning from any of the monitored systems.

Vehicle setting

Each press of the VEHICLE
SETTING control will select a
different feature as follows:
• TRACTION CONTROL. This
system helps prevent wheel spin
to improve tire traction. The
RESET control will toggle this
feature on or off, but the feature
defaults to ON after each cycle of
the ignition key.
• ENGLISH/METRIC. This feature
allows you to change the message
center and electronic automatic temperature control units from metric
to English units. The modes can be toggled by pressing the RESET
control.
• AUTOLAMP DELAY STATUS. This feature displays the current
autolamp delay setting. To change the delay setting, you must rotate
the headlamp control.
• WIPER/HEADLAMP ON. When enabled, the headlamps will
automatically switch on when the windshield wipers are in the
intermittent, low or high speed settings. Use the RESET control to
toggle the feature on or off.
