Start-up Arlert

Ok something strange is starting to happen when I turn on the car. Every once in a while, there seems to be no pattern, when I start the engine there will be an extra beep/alert and then the 'Range' will show up on the dash. I thought maybe it was because I had a 1/4 tank left, filled up, did it again. I press the check control button, all seems OK. Has anyone had this problem before? Just wanted to see if it something bad, or can I just live with it until the next trip to the dealer? Thanks in advance!

-J

Are there any MID arrows when it happens?

Could check to see if memo function is on. Previously posted here as an answer recently.

Ok so no memos set, no arrows in the MID. Just "range ###" in the dash for a few seconds and then it goes away. This is really odd.

Did another search and nobody seems to know what the deal is including their stlrs. Lets keep working on it though. Could also try key reset for ten seconds and startup.

Its not the time nor the memo function.

Happened twice in a row saturday after not doing it for about a week.

Saw another post that at one minute to the hour on your clock that it will give a warning. Anyone notice this? Probably could be reset.

Yeah I keep reading about these 3 beeps. But mine is just one extra. I mean all else seems to be working fine except the rear passenger window will no longer go up with the one-touch. I figured that is just a connection somewhere and should not afect the gas range?
