INSTRUMENT PANEL DESCRIPTION
Description
The information for the driver is displayed by means of three elements:
- Instrument Panel Node in the centre of the dashboard,
- Milometer Warning Lights Node located above the steering column,
- Multifunction Screen Node fitted in front of the instrument panel on the standard version or built into it (DT colour screen) on the Connect Nav + versions.
The Instrument Panel Node displays the following information:
- Speedometer;
- Rev counter;
- Fuel level gauge;
- Coolant temperature gauge;
- Odometer;
- Minimum fuel level warning light;
- Coolant overheating warning light;
- Oil level gauge.
The milometer can be completely zeroed (reset) if the mileage is below 250 km (or 250 miles).
This zeroing can only be done once.
The Milometer Warning lights Node is connected to the CAN and managed by the body computer,
The node is ruled by the instrument panel from which it receives display commands and to which it signals its status via the CAN.
Milometer node warning lights:
- Dipped headlamps warning light
- Main beam headlamps warning light
- Direction indicator warning lights
- Rear fog lamps warning light
- Fog lights warning light
- ESP warning light
- ABS warning light
- EOBD warning light
- Cruise Control warning light
- Brake fluid level and parking brake - EBD warning light
- Minimum oil pressure warning light
- Battery recharging warning light
- Diesel heater plugs warning light
- Driver''s seat belt warning light
- Passenger Air Bag disabled warning light
- Air Bag warning light
The milometer display is capable of showing the following:
- on the top line, the trip mileage and the engine oil level gauge (where fitted)
- on the bottom line, the total mileage and service indicator;
In addition, on versions equipped with automatic transmission, the gear engaged is displayed and there is a symbol warning of the presence of ice on the road.
The Multifunction Screen Node is incorporated in the CAN and manages the display of the:
- Time
- Date
- Outside temperature
- Radio information (and CD changer)
- On board computer (consumption/average speed/range)
- Status of the doors
The lighting for the three modules can be dimmed: the intensity of the lighting is altered by means of a button located in the Milometer Warning Lights Node and is managed by the latter which then controls the Instrument Panel Node and the Multifunction Screen Node.
All the details on the specifications and the operation of the instruments is contained in the "OWNER''S HANDBOOK".
The operation of the warning lights which do not come under any other functions is illustrated below:
- electronic speedometer
- electronic rev counter
- milometer/trip meter;
- fuel level gauge with reserve warning light;
- engine coolant temperature gauge with overheating warning light
- brake fluid level/handbrake applied - EBD warning light
- minimum engine oil pressure warning light
The other warning lights and functions are described and illustrated in the diagrams for the components they refer to (e.g. side lights warning light
