General 

The instrument cluster has the following tasks:

Networking 

The instrument cluster functions as a gateway between CAN and CAN-B.

Display elements 

IMPORTANT All indicator and warning lamps are light emitting diodes.

Operation 

The lower left button in the instrument cluster can be used to switchover the multifunction displays.

The lower right button in the instrument cluster can adjust the instrument cluster illumination at circuit 15 ON and circuit 58 ON in five dimmer stages to match individual requirements.

Activate 

Circuit 15 ON activates the instrument cluster. The multifunction display shows the current content at any given time, switches on the instrument cluster illumination and the needle for the speed display is shown on the display field.

IMPORTANT After circuit 15 OFF the instrument cluster remains active for another 30 s. The speed display needle disappears from the display field behind a cover.

For circuit 15 OFF the instrument cluster can be activated under the following preconditions:

Acoustic signals 

The following acoustic signals are produced and output via the sound signal generator integrated in the instrument cluster:

Turn signal indicator

The turn signal indicator is always accompanied by an acoustic clicking sound generated in the same rhythm. The acoustic turn signal indicator is actuated with:

Warning and information signals

A warning or signal tone is emitted:

IMPORTANT Actuation in each instance is via the CAN by the SAM control unit.
