Check Control
Principle
The Check Control monitors car functions and 
alerts you to any faults in the systems moni-
tored. The system alerts you by means of indi-
cator or warning lamps in the instrument clus-
ter, possibly accompanied by an acoustic 
signal, and text messages at the bottom of the 
control display.
Indicator and warning lamps
Indicator and warning lamps may light up in a 
variety of colours and combinations both in the 
panel
1 and in the display 2.
 means that a Check Control message has 
been issued. The symbol remains visible even if 
the Check Control message disappears again 
after a short time. The warning lamp signals and 
text messages are memorised and can be 
called up again subsequently, see also page
Explanatory text messages
Text messages appearing at the lower edge of 
the control display explain the meaning of the 
indicator and warning lamps that have come on.
You can subsequently call up additional infor-
mation for most Check Control messages, e.g. 
the cause of a malfunction and what action is 
required on your part, see below.
If action is required as a matter of urgency, this 
information is flashed up as soon as the accom-
panying lamp comes on.
Exit the displayed information: 
Select the 
 arrow and press the controller.
Order of importance of Check Control 
messages
Important Check Control messages remain 
until the faults in question have been rectified. 
These messages cannot be deleted. If several 
faults occur at the same time, they are dis-
played in succession.
Less important messages disappear after 
approx. 20 seconds, but they remain memo-
rised.
