the rear of the vehicle will remain at cabin temperature.
Be sure to keep the area under the front seats clear
of any objects so that the air inside of your vehicle can
circulate effectively.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
The passenger compartment air lter traps most of the
pollen from the air entering your vehicle. Like your
vehicle’s engine air cleaner/lter, it may need to
be changed periodically. For how often to change the
passenger compartment air lter, seeScheduled
Maintenance on page 6-4.
The access panel for the passenger compartment air
lter is located under the hood near the windshield,
on the passenger’s side of the vehicle.

If your vehicle is rst sold in the United States, the trip
odometer will return to zero after 999.9 miles
(1 609 km). If your vehicle is rst sold in Canada, the
trip odometer will return to zero after 1,242 miles
(1 999 km). The RESET TRIP A/B button only resets
the trip mode (A or B) that is being displayed. Each trip
mode must be reset individually.
Display Mode
On vehicles equipped with the analog cluster, this
button is located between the trip odometer and
ENG/MET button to the left of the steering wheel on the
instrument panel. Press DSPL MODE to turn the
backlighting and the digital speed image on and off.
On vehicles equipped with the digital cluster, press
DSPL MODE to turn the digital displays other than the
speedometer and gear display on and off.
English/Metric Button
By pressing this button
located to the left of the
steering wheel on the
instrument panel, you can
go back and forth from
English (miles) to
metric (kilometers).
Other readings such as temperature, fuel and trip
odometer also go back and forth between English
and metric.
Vehicle Speed Limiter
This feature prevents your vehicle from exceeding
speeds that the tires are not rated for. When this
happens, the engine’s fuel supply is shut off. When the
vehicle speed slows, the fuel supply will come on again.
3-48

If the fuel supply gets down to about 1.8 gallons (7 L)
of fuel remaining in the tank, the FUEL LEVEL LOW
message will appear on the Driver Information
Center (DIC) and a single chime will sound.
On the digital cluster, if the fuel is less than about
1.2 gallons (4.7 L) the E segment on the gage will ash.
The fuel range on the Driver Information Center (DIC)
will display “LO.”
Here are a few concerns some owners have had about
the fuel gage. All of these situations are normal and
do not indicate that anything is wrong with the fuel gage:
At the gas station the gas pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
GAL FUEL USED on the DIC does not correspond
exactly to the amount of fuel remaining as shown
on the fuel gage.
The gage may change when you turn, stop quickly
or accelerate quickly.
Fuel Data Display (Digital
Cluster Only)
The fuel data display tells
you all you about the fuel
economy and how far
you can travel with the fuel
remaining.
The average fuel economy (AVG) display shows the
average miles per U.S. gallon.
3-61

To reset the average fuel economy, press the INFO
button until the MPG AVG is displayed on the DIC.
Press and hold the INFO RESET button until both the
fuel data display and DIC display reads 0.0.
The RANGE display shows how far the computer thinks
you can travel with the fuel that is in the tank. The
computer does not know what driving conditions will be
like for the rest of your trip, so the range is estimated
based on the recent fuel economy. Therefore, the range
reading may change as your driving habits change.
Going from city to highway driving may increase
the range reading.
On the analog cluster, fuel data can be obtained by
pressing the INFO button. SeeDriver Information
Center (DIC) on page 3-62.Driver Information Center (DIC)
This display gives you the status of many of your
vehicle’s systems. The DIC is also used to display driver
personalization features and warning/status messages.
All messages will appear in the DIC display, located
at the bottom of the instrument panel cluster.

DIC Warnings and Messages
These messages will appear if there is a problem
sensed in one of your vehicle’s systems. Vehicles that
are rst sold in Canada will have a number after
each message. This number helps to identify the
problem. You must then press INFO or INFO RESET to
clear the display screen for further use. However, be
sure to take any message that appears on the display
screen seriously and remember that pressing the
INFO or INFO RESET button will only make the
message disappear, not the problem.
DIC messages can also be displayed in French,
German, Spanish and Japanese. Contact your dealer to
have the language display adjusted for your vehicle.BATTERY NOT CHARGING – 7:This message will
appear if the battery is not being charged. Have
the electrical system checked by your dealership at your
earliest convenience.
BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE – 27:This message is
displayed when the vehicle has detected that the battery
voltage is dropping beyond a reasonable point. The
battery saver system will start reducing certain features
of the vehicle that you may not be able to notice. At
the point that features are disabled, this message
is displayed. It means that the vehicle is trying to save
the charge in the battery. Turn off unnecessary
accessories to allow the battery to recharge.
BATTERY VOLTAGE HIGH – 8:This message shows
that the electrical charging system is overcharging
(more than 16 volts). To avoid being stranded, have the
electrical system checked by your dealership. You

climate control on AUTO and the fan speed on HI, and
turn the rear window defogger on. You can monitor
battery voltage on the DIC by pressing the INFO button.
The normal range is 11.5 to 15.5 volts when the
engine is running.
3-65

BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW – 6:This message will
appear when the electrical system is charging less than
10 volts or if the battery has been drained. If this
message appears immediately after starting, it is
possible that the generator can still recharge the battery.
The battery should recharge while driving but may
take a few hours to do so. Consider using an auxiliary
charger (be sure to follow the manufacturer’s
instructions) to boost the battery after returning home or
to a nal destination. If this message appears while
driving or after starting your vehicle and stays on, have
it checked immediately to determine the cause of
this problem. To help the generator recharge the battery
quickly, you can reduce the load on the electrical
system by turning off the accessories. You can monitor
battery voltage on the DIC by pressing the INFO
button. The normal range is 11.5 to 15.5 volts.
CHANGE ENGINE OIL – 82:This means that the life
