The concept
The Check Control system monitors functions in the vehicle and notifies you of malfunctions in the monitored systems.
A Check Control message is displayed as a combination of indicator or warning lamps and text messages in the instrument cluster and in the Head-up Display.
In addition, an acoustic signal may be output and a text message may appear on the Control Display.
