Default New updated instrument cluster installed w/ lap timer

The dealer just replaced my instrument cluster and I now have the lap timer screen available which also shows volts and oil temp. I don't have the owners manual for a car with the lap timer can anyone guide me in using it properly?

Thanks,
nmslk

If memory serves me correct his odometer was not working correctly so the dealer will have replaced the cluster.

Its probably the pre-facelift current model since the others will have been sold already, nice upgrade to get a new menu especially if it was under warranty.

You are right on Dan. New cluster under warranty for an issue I was having with the trip OD. I like the lap timer function and having visibility the the volts and oil temp. I'm still getting used to the speed and rpm gauges though, they are much busier looking in my opinion with double dashes at each 20 mpg mark.
