& ECO gaugeThe ECO gauge shows the difference
between the average rate of fuel con-
sumption and the current rate of fuel
consumption. Using the average rate of
fuel consumption since the trip meter was
last reset, if the current rate of fuel
consumption is higher than the average
rate of fuel consumption, the indicator
needle points to the “+”or right side, and if
the current rate of fuel consumption is
lower than the average rate of fuel
consumption, the indicator needle points
to the “”or left side. When the indicator
needle is pointing to the “+”or right side, it
indicates fuel-efficient driving.
NOTE. The ECO gauge shows only an
approximate indication.
. After resetting the trip meter, the
average rate of fuel consumption is not
shown until driving 0.6 mile (1 km).
Until that time, the ECO gauge does not
operate.

the trip meter will be lost.&
Current and average fuel
consumptionU.S.-spec. vehicles
Canada-spec. vehicles
1) Current fuel consumption
2) Average fuel consumptionCurrent fuel consumption shows the rate
of fuel consumption at the present mo-
ment. Average fuel consumption shows
the average rate of fuel consumption since
the trip meter was last reset.
When the vehicle speed is less than
approximately 6 mph (9.5 km/h), the
current fuel consumption is not displayed.
The displayed number with “A” is the
average fuel consumption corresponding
to the A trip meter indication, and the
displayed number with “B”is the average
fuel consumption corresponding to the B
trip meter indication.
When either of the trip meter indications is
reset, the corresponding average fuel

dance with changes in the vehicle ’s
running conditions. Also, the indicated
values may differ slightly from the
actual values and should thus be
treated only as a guide.
. When either trip meter indication is
reset, the average fuel consumption
corresponding to that trip meter indica-
tion is not shown until the vehicle has
subsequently covered a distance of 1
mile (or 1 km).

Canada-spec. vehiclesWhen the outside temperature is 37 8F
(3 8C) or lower, the display flashes “OUT
TEMP 37 8F(3 8C) ”for 3 seconds and
gives a notice to the driver that the road
surface may be frozen. After 3 seconds, it
returns to its original indication of the
outside temperature and journey time.
If the outside temperature drops to 37 8F
(3 8C) or lower while the display is giving
an indication other than the outside
temperature, the display shows “OUT
TEMP 37 8F(3 8C) ”for 3 seconds before
returning to its original indication.
If the display is already indicating an
outside temperature of 37 8F(3 8C) or lower
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON ”position, the display does not shows
“OUT TEMP 37 8F(3 8C) ”.
NOTEThe outside temperature indication
may differ from the actual outside
temperature. The indication “OUT
TEMP 37 8F(3 8C) ” should be treated
only as a guide. Be sure to check the
condition of the road surface before
driving.

After 2 hours have passed for the journey
time, the display indication flashes “E/T
2:00 ”at the center of the display for 3
seconds and gives a notice to the driver to
take a rest. After 3 seconds, it returns to its
original indication of the outside tempera-
ture and journey time.
If you continue to drive your vehicle
without stopping the engine, the display
flashes the journey time for 3 seconds at
the center of the display after each
additional hour has elapsed. If the display
shows an indication other than the journey
time, the display switches to the journey
time for 3 seconds for each additional hour
that has elapsed after the first 2 hours.
After 3 seconds, it returns to its original
indication. However, if the journey time
indication overlaps with another indication,
the journey time indication is shortened.NOTEThe journey time is reset when the
ignition switch is turned to the “OFF ”
position. It is also reset if the ignition
switch is turned to the “LOCK ”or
“ ACC ”position prior to restarting of
the engine.
& Driving range on remaining
fuelU.S.-spec. vehiclesCanada-spec. vehiclesThe driving range indicates the distance in units of 10 miles (10 km) that can be
driven by taking into consideration the fuel
remaining in the tank and the average rate
of fuel consumption over the last 30 miles
(30 km).
