The Check Control monitors functions in the
vehicle and issues a message if there is a mal-
function in the monitored systems. This kind of

and warning lamps in the instrument cluster,
and if necessary an acoustic signal and text
messages at the bottom of the Control Display.
Indicator and warning lamps
The indicator and warning lamps can light up in
different combinations and colors.

been generated. The symbol continues to be
visible even when the Check Control message
disappears after a short time. The warning
lamps and text messages are stored and can be
displayed later, also refer to page

Explanatory text messages
Text messages at the bottom edge of the Con-
trol Display explain the meaning of the dis-
played indicator and warning lamps.

Check Control messages later, e.g. on the

mation is displayed immediately when the
related lamp lights up.
