GAUGES, METERS AND SERVICE REMINDER INDICATORS
88The following
information is displayed when you push the
“INFO” button with the ignition switch turned on.
Each time you push the “INFO” button, the display toggles
through this information.
(1) Driving time after engine start
(2) Average vehicle speed after engine start
(3) Average fuel consumption after refueling
(4) Instantaneous fuel consumption
(5) Driving distance after engine start
(6) Driving range
The displayed values in the cruise information display indicate
general driving conditions. Accuracy varies with driving habits
and road conditions.
When the ignition switch is on, the last previously used mode
displayed just before the ignition switch is off will appear. If the electrical power source has been disconnected from the
cruise information display,
the display will automatically be set
to the initial mode.
When the instrument panel lights are turned on, the brightness
of the display will be reduced.
You can adjust the brightness of the display. To adjust the
brightness, see “Multi −display light control” on page 91.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the display while the vehicle is moving.
Be sure to adjust the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.
(1) Driving time after engine start
(“E/T”)
The elapsed time after the engine starts is displayed.
When the engine is started, driving time is counted from 0:00.
Up to 11:59 (11 hours, 59 minutes) can be displayed. When the
driving time exceeds 11:59, the counter returns to 0:00.
The calculation is reset when the ignition switch is turned off.

(6) Driving range(“Cruising Range miles” or “Cruising Range
km”)
The distance the vehicle can travel with the remaining fuel
is calculated and displayed 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 dif ferent
from the actual distance traveled.
The displayed value is updated every time the fuel equivalent
for 1 mile or 1 km is consumed.
The actual driving range varies with driving habits and road
conditions. If fuel consumption is good, the driving range will
be longer than indica ted. If fuel consumption is poor, the
driving range will be shorter than indicated.
If the low fuel level warning light comes on, refuel the vehicle
even if the display indicates that the vehicle can be driven
further.
INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHT CONTROL
To adjust the brightness of the instrument panel lights,
turn the knob.
With the knob turned fully clockwise, the intensity of the
instrument panel lights will not be reduced even if the headlight
switch is turned on.
If the instrument panel light control knob is turned fully
counterclockwise, the foot lights will turn off.
