Turn of safety/welcome message

New 2023 4runner, every time turn on get the white message on the center console touch screen about checking safety wear belts, consult owners Manila etc. as soon as put in drive or revers goes away or if touch continue box in lower right corner. But is there a way to permanently rid the message, not show me again? Or am I stuck with the constant reminder every time turn on the vehicle.

 

Replace the head unit.

Yeah, its just there. No way to get rid of it. In the end it goes away by the time I am out of my garage/driveway.

 

I hate that too. We’re lucky though. At least the message goes away by itself after a few seconds. My wife had a car with a similar message that had to be manually cancelled every time.

 

One of the benefits to a whole new system, which I did. Not for that reason, though.

 

5 months in it still always comes up. Don't think I have ever actually read it all. Just ignore it. Learning how to just ignore things (many things) is a key to a happy life.

 

Never bothered me. I guess it’s only because it last way less time than my wife’s car.

 

If there was an option to completely remove it, of course I would. But like others, it doesn’t bother me that much since it goes away on its own. I have had to drive cars where I was forced to acknowledge in order to close the message, which was WAY more annoying

 

I haven't even noticed it although I'm aware that some sort of welcome message appears but I don't watch the movie since I'm busying checking my surroundings and then putting the vehicle into gear and driving.

 

I just watch the warp speed animation on the dash screen and imagine piloting my Runner through space.

 

Have to admit I think that is pretty cool, the image of the 4 runner itself.

 

Yup. Just be glad it's not how Subaru does it....had to be manually cancelled every time. Just stupid as it FORCES a distraction. Exact opposite of what the manufacturer should be causing.
