ELECTRONIC MESSAGE CENTER

The electronic message center only
works when the ignition is in the
ON position.

The message center tells you about
the condition of your vehicle by two
methods:
• operator selectable features
• continuous warning reporting of

monitored systems

You can select different features for
the message center to display by
using the message center controls
located to the right of the
instrument cluster. You will hear a tone when you press one of these
controls. However, the message center will display the appropriate
warning message if it detects a warning from any of the monitored
systems.

If you have a vehicle with the Driver
Select System, you have a DRIVER
ID control in place of the E/M
control.
• Refer to DRIVER ID (if equipped)

for DRIVER ID control
information.

• Refer to E/M (if equipped) for

E/M control information.

Operator selectable features

These features are controlled by the message center controls located to
the right of the instrument cluster.
