Combination meter illumina-
tion
When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON ” position, the various parts of the
combination meter are illuminated in the
following sequence:
1. Meter needles and gauge needles light
up.
2. Meter needles and gauge needles
each show MAX position.
3. Meter needles and gauge needles
each show MIN position, and REV indica-
tor flashes.
4. Dials and indicators in meters and
gauges light up.
5. “STI ” mark lights up.
6. Regular illumination (for driving) be-
gins.
Cancelling sequential illumi-
nation of the combination
meter
With the ignition switch in the “ON ” posi-
tion, it is possible to cancel sequential illu-
mination of the combination meter.
Press the trip knob while turning the REV
setting knob clockwise or counterclock- wise. The buzzer will sound briefly, and
the outside temperature indicator will
show
“ON ” or “– –” .
ON : sequential illumination – – : sequential illumination cancelled
The setting toggles between “ON ” and “–
–” each time the trip knob is pressed.
Return the REV setting knob to its original
position to complete the setting process.
The buzzer will sound briefly. A few sec-
onds later, the outside temperature indica-
tor will return to showing the outside tem-
perature.
NOTE
It is not possible to cancel sequential
illumination of the combination meter
while sequential illumination is actual-
ly taking place. Cancel sequential illu-
mination when regular illumination (for
driving) has begun.

gine speed
1. Turn the REV setting knob clockwise or
counterclockwise, then release it and let it
return to its initial position. The buzzer will
sound. The REV alarm system is now
ready to be set.
2. Turn the REV setting knob to select the
desired alarm-level engine speed.
At this time, the outside temperature indi-
cator will show the engine-speed setting.
Counterclockwise ( –) for less than 0.5
second: Speed setting changes down-
ward by 100 rpm.
Clockwise (+) for less than 0.5 sec-
ond: Speed setting changes upward by
100 rpm.
Counterclockwise ( –) for 0.5 second or longer: Speed setting changes down-
ward by 1,000 rpm.
Clockwise (+) for 0.5 second or long-
er: Speed setting changes upward by
1,000 rpm.
The speed setting will stop changing if it
reaches 0 rpm or the maximum engine
speed.

The alarm-level engine speed can be set
(in 100 rpm steps) within a range from
2,000 to 7,500 rpm.
The indicator shows the setting as follows:
Approximately three seconds after you
stop turning the knob, the REV alarm sys-
tem will automatically enter its next setting
mode (step 3 below), in which you can ac-
tivate or deactivate the buzzer. 3. Activate or deactivate the buzzer as
desired using the REV setting knob.Turn the knob clockwise (+) to acti-
vate the buzzer. The indicator will show “ ON ”, and the buzzer will sound three
times. With the buzzer activated, en-
gine-speed warnings are given by both
the REV indicator light and the buzzer.
Turn the knob counterclockwise ( –) to
deactivate the buzzer. The indicator will
show “– –” , and the buzzer will not
sound. With the buzzer deactivated, en-
gine-speed warnings are given only by
the REV indicator light.
Approximately three seconds after you
stop turning the knob, the buzzer will
sound once to indicate the end of the set-
ting procedure. The indicator will return to
showing the outside temperature.
Also, the tachometer needle will return to
approximately “0 ”.
NOTE
The REV alarm system does not op-
erate while settings are being entered.
The speed-setting mode terminates
if 0 rpm is selected.
The speed-setting mode is canceled
if the ignition switch is turned to OFF or
the vehicle starts moving before the
setting procedure is finished.
