The multi-information display in the
instrument panel displays various
information and messages when the
ignition switch is in the ON (II)
position. Some of the messages help
you operate your vehicle more
comfortably. Others help to keep you
aware of the periodic maintenance
your vehicle needs for continued
trouble-free driving.
Models equipped with the keyless
access system have an engine start/
stop button instead of an ignition
switch. ON mode is the equivalent of
ON (II). See page 196 for ignition
switch and power mode comparison.
There are three types of messages:
normal display messages, engine oil
life and maintenance messages, and
system messages.You can select the displayed
language and also customize some
vehicle control settings to your liking
with the multi-information display
and the buttons on the steering
wheel (see page 79).
Normal Display Messages

the ON (II) position, the display
shows
‘‘DRIVER 1’’ or‘‘DRIVER 2’’
depending on which remote
transmitter/keyless access remote
you use.On models with keyless access systemThe driver's ID (1 or 2) is displayed
when the power mode is set to ON.Remote transmitter/keyless
access remote 1 is used.
Remote transmitter/keyless

System MessagesIf there is a problem with your
vehicle, for example, the engine oil
level is low or a door is not fully
closed, the multi-information display
will show you the problem. It does
this by interrupting the current
display with one or more messages.The system message(s) triggers the
appropriate indicator(s) on the
instrument panel, including the
system message indicator, to come
on. The system message indicator
does not go off until the problem(s)
is corrected.
You will also hear a beep when the
system message comes on for the
first time.
Most of the messages are displayed
for about 5 seconds, and then the
normal display returns. If there are
several system messages to be
shown, the display switches these
messages every 5 seconds.
To switch the message(s) before 5
seconds have elapsed, press the
INFO (▲
/▼ ) button on the steering
wheel.
Even if you press the INFO (▲ /▼ )
button, some messages stay on or
come on again at regular intervals
until the problem is corrected.
If the system message indicator
remains lit on the instrument panel,
you can see the corresponding
message(s) again by pressing the
INFO (▲ /▼ ) button repeatedly.
Here is a list of all messages:
