Each trip meter works independently,
so you can keep track of two
dif f erent distances.
There are two trip meters: TRIP A
and TRIP B. Switch between these
displays by pressing the SEL/
RESET button repeatedly. This shows how much f uel you have.
It may show slightly more or less
than the actual amount.
To reset a trip meter, display it, and
then press and hold the SEL/RESET
button until the number resets to‘‘0.0.’’
This meter shows the number of
miles or kilometers driven since you
last reset it.
This shows the temperature of the
engine’s coolant. During normal
operation, the reading should rise to
about the middle of the gauge. In
severe driving conditions, such as
very hot weather or a long period of
uphill driving, the reading may rise
into the upper half of the gauge. If it
reaches the red (Hot) mark, pull
safely to the side of the road. See
page f or instructions and
precautions on checking the engine
cooling system.
