Instrument panel
High-priority messages are displayed in the instrument panel.
Messages may appear in different parts of the instrument panel depending on their context. The message will time out after a short period of time or disappear when it has been confirmed or if action has been taken. Messages that need to be stored will be saved under My car messages in the center display's Top view.
The message may be displayed along with graphics, symbols or buttons for e.g., confirming the message or accepting a request.
