for route guidance. (See the following
pages.) In one type of area, primarily
around metropolitan centers, detailed
route guidance is available for the en-
tire area. In the other type of area, all
roads are displayed on the map but
route guidance is limited. The naviga-
tion route might lack precision because
the data (no right turns, oneway traf-
fic, etc.) is not completed. It is still
possible to reach the destination by fol-
lowing the arrow direction and distance
as shown on the bottom left of the
screen. The arrow points in the direc-
tion of the destination. The distance
shown is as measured in a straight line
from the current vehicle position to the
destination area.

tions are often changed. In some places,
construction on roads may be in progress.
For that reason, information on some

“OUTSIDE TEMP”
The display indicates the outside air tem-
peratures.
“Consumption”
The instantaneous fuel consumption is cal-
culated and displayed based on distance
and fuel consumption for 1 second with
the engine running.
The displayed value is updated every 1
second.Note that an accurate figure may not be
shown in the following cases.
When the vehicle is stopped with the
engine running, the display will indicate
the extremely high fuel consumption.
When the vehicle is driving down a
long slope, applying the engine brake,
the display will indicate the extremely
low fuel consumption.
The calculation is reset when the ignition
switch is turned off.
“After refueling”
The average fuel consumption is calcu-
lated and displayed based on total driving
distance and total fuel consumption with
the engine running.
The displayed value is updated every 10
seconds.
Every time you refuel the vehicle, the cal-
culation is reset. When refueling, be sure
to stop your vehicle and turn the ignition
switch off.“Cruising range”
The distance the vehicle can travel with
the remaining fuel is calculated and dis-
played based on the quantity of remaining
fuel and past fuel consumption.
The driving range display indicates the
approximate distance that you can drive
until the fuel gauge reaches “E”. It is
different from the actual distance traveled.
The displayed value is updated every time
the fuel equivalent for 1 mile or 1 km is
consumed.
Every time you refuel the vehicle, the cal-
culation is reset. When refueling, be sure
to stop your vehicle and turn the ignition
switch off.
The actual driving range varies with driv-
ing habits and road conditions. If fuel con-
sumption is good, the driving range will be
longer. If fuel consumption is poor, the
driving range will be shorter.
If the low fuel level warning light comes
on, refuel even if the display indicates
that the vehicle can be driven further.
