Do not attempt to adjust the display
while driving.NOTE:
Refer to “Speedometer/ Odometer/ Trip
meter” in this section for details of (a), (b),
and (c) indication.Instantaneous fuel consumption (d) (if
equipped)
If you selected instantaneous fuel
consumption the last time you drove the
vehicle, the display indicates “—.-” when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position.
Unless the vehicle is moving, the display will
indicate “—.-”.NOTE:
Depending on the vehicle’s specification,
the fuel consumption units of initial
setting are indicated as L/100km, km/L.
For “L/100km” or “km/L” setting, the
indicated maximum value of
instantaneous fuel consumption is 30. No
more than 30 will be indicated on the
display even if the actual instantaneous
fuel consumption is higher.
Average fuel consumption (e) (if
equipped)If you selected average fuel consumption
the last time you drove the vehicle, the
display shows the last value of average fuel
consumption when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position. Unless you
reset the value of average fuel consumption,
the display indicates the value of average
fuel consumption which includes average
fuel consumption during previous driving.
To reset the value of average fuel
consumption, hold in the “MODE” knob (5)
for a while when the display shows the
average fuel consumption. The display will
indicate “—.-” and then will show a new
average fuel consumption value after driving
for a short time.NOTE:
When you reset the indication or reconnect
the negative (–) terminal to the battery, the
value of average fuel consumption will be
shown after driving for a while.Driving range (f) (if equipped)If you selected driving range the last time
you drove the vehicle, the display shows “—

NOTE:
If you refuel when the ignition switch is
in the “ON” position, the driving range
may not indicate the correct value.
When you reconnect the negative (–)
terminal to the battery, the value of
driving range will be shown after driving
for a while.
For a new vehicle with low mileage, the
driving range may not be shown
promptly in the display when beginning
to drive. The driving range will be shown
after a while.
NOTE:
The values of fuel consumption and driving
range shown in the display are affected by
conditions such as the following;the approximate distance you can drive until
the fuel gauge indicates “E” based current
driving conditions.
When the low fuel warning light comes on,
the display “—-” will appear.
If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill
the fuel tank immediately regardless of the
value of driving range shown in the display.
As the driving range after refueling is
calculated based on the last driving
condition,the value is different each time you
refuel.

and wait until the glow plug indicator goes
out if it comes on. Crank the engine by
turning the ignition key to “START”. Release
the key when the engine starts. When stopping the engine after
climbing or high speed driving, let
the engine idle for about one minute
or more (if it is not prohibited) to
cool down the turbocharger and
engine oil. This is to prevent the
engine oil from over-deteriorating.
Deteriorated engine oil will damage
the bearings of the turbocharger.

empty stop
The engine stops and the malfunction indi-
cator light comes on if the engine feels fuel
emptiness. To restart the engine, stop the
