Warnings And Messages
The message center warning messages alert the operator to possible concerns or malfunctions in the vehicle operating systems. Warning messages are generally associated with other observable outputs of the IPC (gauges, informational indicators and RTT indicators). For example, when the ABS module detects a low brake fluid condition, the ABS module sends the IPC a request through the GWM to illuminate the brake warning indicator and a request to display the LOW BRAKE FLUID message in the message center. This allows the message center to be a more informative supplement to the IPC gauges and indicators.

Factory/Transport Mode
During vehicle build, some modules, such as the IPC and the BCM, are set in factory mode. While in the factory mode the IPC displays FACTORY MODE CONTACT DEALER in the message center. If the vehicle is set in factory mode, the system does not automatically exit the mode and must be manually set to either the transport or normal operation mode.
When the vehicle build is complete, the vehicle is set to transport mode. While in transport mode, the IPC displays TRANSPORT MODE CONTACT DEALER in the message center. Transport mode is used to reduce the drain on the battery during longer periods where the vehicle is not used. Various systems may be altered or are disabled when in the transport mode. The vehicle automatically reverts to normal operation mode after being driven 201 km (125 mi).
To deactivate factory mode, Refer to: Factory Mode Deactivation . To deactivate transport mode, Refer to: Transport Mode Deactivation .
