This meter shows the number of
miles (U.S.) or kilometers (Canada)
driven since you last reset it.
There are two trip meters: Trip A
and Trip B. Switch between these
displays and the odometer/outside
temperature display by pressing the
Select/Reset knob repeatedly. Each
trip meter works independently, so
you can keep track of two dif f erent
distances.
When you turn the ignition switch to
ON (II), what you last selected is
displayed.
In certain weather conditions,
temperature readings near f reezing
(32°F, 0°C) could mean that ice is
f orming on the road surf ace.
When it reaches the desired value,
release the Select/Reset knob. You
should see the new outside
temperature displayed.
NOTE: The temperature must be
stabilized bef ore doing this
procedure.
Select the outside temperature
display, then press the Select/Reset
knob f or ten seconds. The f ollowing
sequence will appear f or one second
each:0,1,2,3,4,5, 5, 4, 3, 2,
1,0(U.S.)or0,1,2,3, 3, 2,
1, 0 (Canada).
If the outside temperature is
incorrectly displayed, you can adjust
it 5°F in U.S. models ( 3°C in
Canadian models) warmer or cooler.
To reset a trip meter, display it and
then press and hold the Select/Reset
knob until the number resets to ‘‘0.0.’’
Both trip meters will reset if the
vehicle’s battery goes dead or is
disconnected.
This indicator displays the outside
temperature in Fahrenheit (U.S.
models) or Centigrade (Canadian
models). To see the outside
temperature, press and release the
Select/Reset knob until the
temperature is displayed.
The temperature sensor is in the
f ront bumper. Theref ore, the
temperature reading can be af f ected
by heat ref lection f rom the road
surf ace, engine heat, and the
exhaust f rom surrounding traf f ic.
This can cause an incorrect
temperature reading when your
speed is under 19 mph (30 km/h).
The sensor delays the display update
until it reaches the correct outside
temperature. This may take several
minutes.
