1. Speedometer
2. Turn signal, left
3. Warning symbol
See the next page for additional information.
4. Information display
The display presents information and warning messages, the ambient temperature, and the clock, etc. When the
ambient temperature is between 23° and 36°F (-5° and +2°C), a snowflake symbol is shown in the display. This
symbol serves as a warning for possible slippery road surfaces. Please note that this symbol does not indicate a fault
with your car. At low speeds, or when the car is not moving, the temperature readings may be slightly higher than the
actual ambient temperature.
5. Information symbol
See the next page for additional information.
6. Turn signal, right
7. Tachometer
The tachometer shows engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm). Do not drive continuously with the
needle in the red area of the dial, which indicates maximum allowable engine rpm range. Instead, shift to a higher gear
or slow the vehicle down. The engine management system will automatically prevent excessively high engines speeds.
This will be noticeable as a pronounced unevenness in engine speed.
8. Indicator and warning symbols
9. Fuel gauge
The fuel tank holds approximately 16.3 US gallons (62 liters). When a warning light in the gauge comes on, there are
approximately 2.1 US gallons (8 liters) of fuel remaining in the tank.
10. Trip odometer reset button
The trip odometers are used to measure short distances. Press the button briefly to switch between the odometer for the
car's total mileage and the two trip odometers, T1 and T2. A long press (more than 2 seconds) resets the currently
selected trip odometer.
11. Function display
This window displays information on functions such as the odometer, trip odometers, optional rain sensor, and cruise
control.

Current fuel consumption
Average speed
NOTE: Current speed in m.p.h. (Canadian models only)
NOTE: Warning messages from the car's monitoring systems will override the trip computer function. If a warning
message is shown in the information display while you are using the trip computer, you must acknowledge the
message by pressing the READ button (A). Press button A again to return to the trip computer function.
Controls
The four trip computer functions (five on Canadian models) can be accessed by twisting INFO (B) one step at a time
in either direction. Twisting a fifth time (sixth time on Canadian models) returns you to the original function.
The trip computer can be reset (average fuel consumption and average speed will be erased from system memory) by
pressing RESET (C) for at least five seconds.
Driving distance on current fuel reserve
This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the fuel remaining in the tank. This calculation is
based on average fuel consumption during the last 20 miles (30 km) of driving and the amount of fuel remaining in the
tank when the reading was taken. When the driving distance on current fuel reserve is less than 12 miles (20 km), "----
" will be displayed in the information display.
Average fuel consumption
This value indicates fuel consumption since the last time the trip computer was reset (by pressing RESET, button C).
When the engine is switched off, information on fuel consumption is stored and remains in system memory until the
RESET (button C) is pressed again.
Current fuel consumption
This value indicates the current fuel consumption, based on readings taken once per second. When the car is not
moving, "----" will be displayed.
Average speed
This value indicates average speed since the last time the trip computer was reset (by pressing RESET, button C).
When the engine is switched off, information on average speed is stored and remains in system memory until the
RESET (button C) is pressed again.
Current speed in m.p.h. (Canadian models only)
This function provides the driver with an instantaneous conversion of the car's current speed from km/h to m.p.h.
NOTE: Trip computer readings may vary slightly depending on the circumference of the tires on the car, tire inflation,
or driving style.
