Customer Settings

The customer settings procedure allows the driver to adjust certain vehicle settings to change the functionality of selected vehicle functions.

The settings are stored in the instrument cluster EEPROM. Each vehicle has a factory set car configuration file which defines the settings for selected vehicle functions. The factory settings are retained and the system can be changed back to the factory default settings by either the dealer or the driver at any time.

NOTE: The factory default settings may differ between market configuration of the vehicle.

The customer settings system is controlled by CAN bus message inputs and outputs from the instrument cluster, the Central Junction Box (CJB), the ABS Module and the Integrated Head Unit (IHU). The following table details the modules and their associated function within the settings system.

Module Output Information
Central Junction Box (CJB) Remote handset identity

Audible Warnings

The instrument cluster can generate audible warnings to alert the driver to a displayed message and change of vehicle operating condition. The audible warning is generated by a sounder located within the instrument cluster. The audible warnings are categorised into one of three types; warning message \ indicator lamp alert tones, system status tones and turn signal indicator status tones. The following warning chimes are produced by various vehicle subsystems:
^ Lights on warning
^ Seat belt warning
^ Turn signal indicator/hazard warning indicator warning
^ Overspeed warning
^ Seat memory warning

^ Water in fuel warning.

The audible warning takes the form of either a single chime, a double chime or a repeating chime. The audible warnings are initiated by a CAN bus message from the requesting subsystem control module or by the instrument cluster software.

Trip Computer

General
The instrument cluster contains software which enables the use of an on-board trip computer. The computer allows the driver to access information for current fuel usage, current journey length, average speed and estimated distance on fuel remaining. The information is displayed in the lower part of the message center, providing no other high priority messages are being displayed. If no messages are being displayed or the displayed message is of a low priority, the trip computer will be permitted use of the message center.





The driver is able to access the computer and change some parameters which control the information display using the trip computer button on the left hand multifunction switch stalk.

Trip Computer Functionality
When the engine is started the instrument cluster enters a diagnostic mode and displays a 'System Check in Progress' message in the message center. Once complete, the instrument cluster then displays any warning messages, i.e.; DRIVER'S DOOR OPEN, in priority order.

When any applicable messages have been displayed the message center displays information in mode 3E. Pressing the trip computer button once will display the customer settings menu, if the vehicle is stationary. If the vehicle is moving this display will be ignored and the trip computer information will be displayed in the following order:
