Driver Controls System check Selecting this function from the SETUP menu causes the message center to cycle through each of the systems being monitored. For each of the monitored systems, the message center will indicate either an OK message or a warning message for three seconds. Pressing the RESET control cycles the message center through each of the systems being monitored. The sequence of the system check report is as follows: 1. Oil life in XX% 2. Charging system 3. Washer fluid level 4. Brake fluid level 5. Doors and liftgate status 6. Exterior lamps status 7. Traction Control status 8. Tire inflation status 9. Fuel level status (hold to reset to relearn) 10. Distance to empty System warnings System warnings alert you to possible problems or malfunctions in your vehicle's operating systems. In the event of a multiple warning situation, the message center will cycle the display to show all warnings by displaying each one for 4 seconds. The message center will display the last selected feature if there are no more warning messages. This allows you to use the full functionality of the message center after you acknowledge the warning by pressing the RESET control and clearing the warning message. Warning messages that have been reset are divided into three categories: • They will reappear on the display ten minutes from the reset. • They will not reappear until an ignition OFF-ON cycle has been completed. 80 2004 Freestar (win) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA English (fus)
