A device for improved visualization of an indication in an instrument cluster of a transportation vehicle and a corresponding system, method and computer program. Due to the greatly limited display area of the mini-FID in the instrument cluster, the device displays traffic signs, supplementary signs and warning lights in one display region. The supplementary signs information is displayed in reduced size in response to a warning light appearing above the traffic signs in the display region.
