Text messages
There is a display for text messages etc in the center of the tachometer in the driver information module (DIM) (5/1). This provides the driver with
supplementary information about the various warning symbols. This is to reduces the number of different symbols in the combined instrument panel.
Other types of messages, such as the functions of the trip computer, are also displayed. Depending on the circumstances, a request for these messages
may come from the central electronic module (CEM) (4/56) or the steering wheel module (SWM) (3/130).
There is an order of priority where all warning messages have precedence.
Outside temperature
The outside temperature gauge is integrated in the display in the tachometer. This function displays the outside temperature. If there is a risk of icy road
conditions, a snow flake symbol is displayed to warn the driver. A snowflake is displayed between -5 to +2 °C.
A sensor which detects the outside temperature is mounted in the left-hand door mirror (6/62). The temperature sensor is directly connected to the engine
control module (ECM) (4/46) which then forwards the signal to the driver information module (DIM) (5/1). The temperature is displayed in Celsius or
Fahrenheit, depending on the market, in increments of one degree. The unit for temperature display is a programmable customer parameter.
