What are the functions of each icon in the Buick Envision?
2 Answers
The functions of each icon in the Buick Envision are as follows: Forward Collision Alert: When the vehicle gets too close to the car ahead, the system will emit an alarm to alert the driver. If the driver does not take action, the system will automatically brake the vehicle. Auto Start-Stop: During brief stops, the engine will shut off. Once the foot is removed from the brake pedal, the engine will restart. Recirculation/Outside Air: The difference between recirculation and outside air is that recirculation always provides air from inside the vehicle, while outside air allows outside air to enter and replace the existing air inside the vehicle. During traffic jams, in tunnels, or when the outside air quality does not meet standards, prioritize using recirculation. On highways, switch to outside air periodically to ensure fresh air and prevent health issues due to stale air. Climate Zone Sync: With the climate zone sync function, changing the temperature in the driver's zone will cause the same change in other zones. After turning off this sync, each zone can be set individually to meet the needs of passengers in different positions.
When I first drove the Buick Envision, those dashboard icons were a bit confusing. The yellow engine light indicates there might be a minor issue with the engine; the red oil pressure light means you must stop immediately for inspection; the tire pressure monitoring light warns of insufficient tire pressure, requiring prompt inflation; the ABS warning light signals a fault in the anti-lock braking system; the high coolant temperature light suggests possible engine overheating; and the airbag light, if illuminated, means the safety protection system might not be functioning. Every time a new light came on, I would pull over and check the owner's manual for details. The tire pressure monitoring is especially useful, providing real-time feedback on tire conditions to avoid the risk of leaks at high speeds; the eco-mode icon shows whether the fuel-saving mode is activated. Getting familiar with these icons made driving more reassuring, especially when I was a beginner—I even recorded a short video on my phone to review them repeatedly.
