indications hard to see if you wear
polarized glasses. &
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 indi-
cator flashes.
4. Dials and indicators in meters and
gauges light up. 5. “STI ”mark lights up.
6. Regular illumination (for driving) be- gins. &
Canceling sequential illumi-
nation of the combination meter
With the ignition switch in the “ON ”
position, it is possible to cancel sequential
illumination 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 willshow “ON ”or “– –” .
ON : sequential illumination –– : sequential illumination canceled
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
seconds later, the outside temperature
indicator will return to showing the outsidetemperature. NOTE

changes downward by 100 rpm. . Clockwise (+): Speed setting
changes upward by 100 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 the range from
2,000 rpm to 7,000 rpm.
The indicator shows the setting as follows:
Speed (rpm) Indication 00 0

turning the knob, the buzzer will sound
once to indicate the end of the setting
procedure. The indicator will return to
showing the outside temperature.
Also, the tachometer needle will return to approximately “0 ”.
