Adjusting the Turbo Pressure Gauge / Night Panel




Adjusting The Turbo Pressure Gauge:






The turbo pressure gauge is divided into 4 fixed breakpoints, 2 of which are adjustable.

- Barometric pressure: breakpoint where the gauge needle is between the white and yellow zones (factory setting: 108 kPa).
- Maximum charge pressure: breakpoint where the gauge needle is between the yellow and red zones (factory settings: cars with automatic transmission 171 kPa, cars with manual gearbox 189 kPa).
Adjustment is in steps of 3 kPa.

Adjusting The Turbo Pressure Gauge, Night Panel


Adjusting The Turbo Pressure Gauge, Night Panel:






The SID's Night Panel function turns off the lighting for the turbo pressure gauge during normal driving. Should turbo pressure exceed a given number of degrees, the turbo pressure gauge lighting will be turned on. By means of this command it is possible to change the turbo pressure at which the main instrument unit turns on the lighting for the turbo pressure gauge when Night Panel is activated. The default pressure set at the factory is 210 kPa for cars with automatic transmission and 216 kPa for cars with a manual gearbox.
Adjustment can be checked afterwards by activating Night Panel with the diagnostic tool.
