Message centre
22
Driver warning and information messages are
displayed on the message centre in the lower
part of the instrument pack. Messages have
different priority levels and are grouped into
the following categories.
CRITICAL WARNINGS
Critical warning messages are accompanied
by an audible warning (three beeps).
Messages are displayed continuously while
the starter switch is turned on, and remain
displayed while the fault persists.
DO NOT ignore these messages - TAKE
CORRECTIVE ACTION IMMEDIATELY!
Critical warnings are displayed continuously,
normally on the lower line of the message
centre, but if more than one message is to be
displayed, then the upper display line will also
be used.
WARNINGS
Warning messages are non-critical, but must
be treated with some urgency. They will also
be accompanied by an audible warning (three
beeps) each time the message is displayed.
DO NOT ignore these messages - TAKE
CORRECTIVE ACTION IMMEDIATELY.
Warning messages are displayed for
approximately 4 seconds. If other warning
messages are pending, the display time will be
reduced to approximately 2 seconds.
