When an indicator comes on or a
message is displayed on the Multi-
Inf ormation Display (MID),
AcuraLink can provide inf ormation
about the cause of the indicator or
message and the recommended
action to address it. This helps you
handle the problem as it occurs,
preventing or limiting costly repairs.
The AcuraLink system cannot
determine mechanical problems
(such as squeaks or rattles) that are
not triggered by the diagnostic
indicator monitors.
For more information on the
instrument panel indicators, see. When any indicator comes on or a
message is displayed on the MID,
AcuraLink immediately notif ies you
with the message, ‘‘An indicator is on.
AcuraLink can help you decide what
to do.’’
If you do not want the
information right away, select the
Check Later option. Depending on the severity of the
problem, the message will let you
know if you should see your dealer
immediately or if you can wait until a
later date. If you want the information now,
select the Check Now option. (If the
navigation screen is not active, you
must select OK f rom the navigation
disclaimer screen bef ore you can
check the inf ormation.)
