Check Control
The concept
The Check Control monitors vehicle functions
and alerts you to any malfunctions in the sys-
tems monitored. Such a Check Control mes-
sage includes indicator or warning lamps in the
instrument cluster and, in some circumstances,
an acoustic signal.
Indicator and warning lamps can light up in both
the indicator area 1 and the display 2 in various
combinations and colors.
What to do in case of a malfunction
The meaning of each lamp in the event of a mal-
function and tips on how to respond are listed
starting on page 130.
Hiding Check Control messages
Press the button in the turn indicator stalk.
Some Check Control messages remain visible
until the malfunction in question has been recti-
fied. They cannot be hidden. If several malfunc-
tions occur at the same time, the Check Control
messages are displayed in succession.
Other Check Control messages are automati-
cally hidden after approx. 20 seconds, but
remain stored.
