INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY

Instrument Cluster Display And Controls

The driver-interactive instrument cluster display is

located in the center of the instrument cluster.

Your vehicle may be equipped with an instrument

cluster display, which offers useful information to the

driver. With the ignition in the STOP/OFF position,

opening/closing of a door will activate the display for

viewing, and display the total miles (kilometers) in the

odometer. Your instrument cluster display is designed

to display important information about your vehicle’s

systems and features. Using a driver interactive display

located on the instrument panel, your instrument clus-

ter display can show you how systems are working and

give you warnings when they aren’t. The steering wheel

mounted controls allow you to scroll through and enter

the main menus and submenus. You can access the

specific information you want and make selections and

adjustments.
