Fuel gauge The fuel gauge indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The needle moves
towards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the remaining fuel in
the tank reaches approximately 2.7 L
(0.72 US gal) (0.60 Imp.gal), the fuel
level warning light will come on and the
multi-function display will automatically
change to the “Trip/fuel” mode. (See
page 3-3.) If this occurs, refuel as soon
as possible.NOTE:Do not allow the fuel tank to empty itselfcompletely.
EAU12171
Coolant temperature gauge With the key in the “” position, the
coolant temperature gauge indicates
the temperature of the coolant. The
coolant temperature varies with chang-
es in the weather and engine load. If
the needle reaches or enters the red
zone, stop the vehicle and let the en-
gine cool. (See page 6-28.)CAUTION:
ECA10020
Do not operate the engine if it isoverheated.
EAUM2050
Multi-function display The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:
an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero, the time passed
since the tripmeters were set to ze-
ro, and the average speed traveled
during this time)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the fuel level warning light came
on)

a clock
an ambient temperature display
an oil change indicator (which
comes on when the engine oil
should be changed)
NOTE:
For the UK, the distance traveled
is displayed in miles and the tem-
perature reading is displayed in °F.
For other countries, the distance
traveled is displayed in kilometers
and the temperature reading is dis-played in °C.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “MODE” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “Total” and the tripmeter modes
“Trip” in the following order:
Total → Trip 1 → Trip 2 → Trip/fuel →
Total
NOTE:
The Trip/fuel odometer is only acti-
vated if the fuel level warning light
comes on.
The Trip 2 odometer is automati-
cally reset after turning the key to“” and two hours have passed.
Pushing the “SET” button when in the
tripmeter mode switches the display
between the different tripmeter func-
tions in the following order:
Trip 1 or Trip 2 → Time 1 or 2 → Aver-
age speed 1 or 2 → Trip 1 or Trip 2If the fuel level warning light comes on
(See page 3-3.), the display will auto-
matically change to the fuel reserve
tripmeter mode “Trip/fuel” and start
counting the distance traveled from that
point. In that case, pushing the “MODE”
button switches the display between
the various tripmeter and odometer
modes in the following order:
Trip/Fuel → Trip 1 → Trip 2 → Total →

To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “MODE” button, and then push
the “SET” button for at least one sec-
ond. If you do not reset the fuel reserve
tripmeter manually, it will reset itself au-
tomatically and the display will return to
the prior mode after refueling and trav-
eling 5 km (3 mi).
Clock mode
To set the clock:
1. When the display is in the “Total”
mode, push the “SET” button for at
least two seconds.
2. When the hour digits start flashing,
push the “SET” button to set the
hours.3. Push the “MODE” button, and the
minute digits will start flashing.
4. Push the “SET” button to set the
minutes.
5. Push the “MODE” button and then
release it to start the clock. The
display will return to the “Total”
mode.Ambient temperature display
This display shows the ambient tem-
perature from –30 °C (–86 °F) to 50 °C
(122 °F).
The frost warning indicator “” auto-
matically comes on if the temperature is
lower than 3 °C (37.4 °F).
