Check Control

The principle
The Check Control monitors vehicle functions
and alerts you to any faults in the systems mon-
itored. A Check Control message includes indi-
cator or warning lights in the instrument cluster
and, in some circumstances, an acoustic signal.
Indicator and warning lights can come on in var-
ious combinations and colours, both in panel 1
and display 2.

Other messages are automatically hidden after
approx. 20 seconds, but are not deleted.
