Looks like your ACC system is doing a self test every time you start the car, normally triggered by holding down Auto and Off, the 0 means no faults found.. Try resetting the system by holding down the Auto button and the lower fan speed button (the display will flash to confirm this followed by a self test. The owners handbook has more on this - look up ACC programming in the index. Andy -- Andrew Sinclair http://www.smellycat.org
