Night panel
To improve night-driving conditions inside
the car, the Night Panel mode can be
selected. In this mode, the amount of infor-
mation displayed is reduced, and only the
most important instruments and displays
will be illuminated.
When the Night Panel button is pressed,
only the speedometer will be illuminated (up
to the 87-mph or 140-km/h graduation), all
the other instruments illumination will be
extinguished and their needles moved to
zero. Both the SID and the ACC displays will
be extinguished and the backlighting for
switches and other controls will be dimmed.
Note: All indicator and warning lights,
together with the display of CHECK mes-
sages, will operate as normal.
The following conditions will wake up the
respective displays in the Night-Panel
mode:
• Setting of the Audio System, SID or ACC
(display comes on for ten seconds).
• CHECK message generated in the SID.
• High engine revs cause the rev counter to
be illuminated until the engine speed has
fallen again.
• If the quantity of fuel remaining falls below
4 gallons (15 liters), the fuel gauge will be
illuminated.
• If the engine temperature rises above nor-
mal, the temperature gauge will be illumi-
nated.
• If the speed of the car exceeds 84 mph
(135 km/h), the entire speedometer will
be illuminated.
• In cars with automatic transmission, if the
selector lever is moved from D to position
3, 2 or 1, the selector indication on the
main instrument panel will be illuminated.
To restore the displays and lighting to the
normal mode, press the Night-Panel button.
