A display system (10; 12) for a vehicle comprising: a display unit including a backlight and one or more layers cooperating with the backlight , wherein the one or more layers include: a first layer , the first layer including a first side for displaying content and an opposing second side cooperating with the backlight , a second layer adjustable between at least a light permeable state and a light impermeable state, the second layer including a first side and an opposing side disposed proximate the first side of the first layer , and a third layer , the third layer including a first side for displaying one or more primary indicators and an opposing second side disposed proximate the first side of the second layer ; a first processing unit coupled to the one or more layers and the backlight of the display unit ; and a second processing unit coupled to the first processing unit , wherein the first processing unit is configured to render the content displayed on the first layer and the one or more primary indicators displayed on the third layer in response to one or more output signals from the second processing unit , characterized in that the first processing unit is configured to: detect the one or more output signals from the second processing unit representative of a dimming level value of light intensity of the backlight , evaluate the dimming level value against a system threshold value of light intensity of the backlight , and generate one or more control signals to adjust light intensity of the backlight in response to the evaluation of the dimming level value against the system threshold value. a first layer , the first layer including a first side for displaying content and an opposing second side cooperating with the backlight , a second layer adjustable between at least a light permeable state and a light impermeable state, the second layer including a first side and an opposing side disposed proximate the first side of the first layer , and a third layer , the third layer including a first side for displaying one or more primary indicators and an opposing second side disposed proximate the first side of the second layer ; a first processing unit coupled to the one or more layers and the backlight of the display unit ; and a second processing unit coupled to the first processing unit , wherein the first processing unit is configured to render the content displayed on the first layer and the one or more primary indicators displayed on the third layer in response to one or more output signals from the second processing unit , characterized in that the first processing unit is configured to: detect the one or more output signals from the second processing unit representative of a dimming level value of light intensity of the backlight , evaluate the dimming level value against a system threshold value of light intensity of the backlight , and generate one or more control signals to adjust light intensity of the backlight in response to the evaluation of the dimming level value against the system threshold value. detect the one or more output signals from the second processing unit representative of a dimming level value of light intensity of the backlight , evaluate the dimming level value against a system threshold value of light intensity of the backlight , and generate one or more control signals to adjust light intensity of the backlight in response to the evaluation of the dimming level value against the system threshold value. <EOS>
