Every time you push the “DISP” button (6),
the display will be changed among the fol-
lowing four displays.
(a) Instantaneous fuel consumption
(b) Average fuel consumption
(c) Driving range
(d) No displayInstantaneous fuel consumption (a)
If you selected instantaneous fuel con-
sumption the last time you drove the vehi-
cle, the display indicates “--.-” when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ACC” or
“ON” position. Unless the vehicle is mov-
ing, the display will indicate “--.-”.
Average fuel consumption (b)
If you selected average fuel consumption
the last time you drove the vehicle, the dis-
play shows the last value of average fuel
consumption when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ACC” or “ON” position.
Unless you reset the value of average fuel
consumption, the display will show the
value of average fuel consumption which
includes average fuel consumption during
previous driving.
To reset the value of average fuel con-
sumption, hold in the “DISP” button (6) for
more than 2 seconds when the display
shows an average fuel consumption value.
The display will indicate “--.-” and then will
show a new average fuel consumption
value after driving for a short time.
Driving range (c)
If you selected driving range the last time
you drove the vehicle, the display shows “--
.-” for a few seconds and then shows the
current driving range when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position.
The driving range shown in the display is
the approximate distance you can driveuntil the fuel gauge indicates “E” based a
current driving conditions.
When the remaining fuel in fuel tank
reaches a low level, the display “--.-” will
appear.
If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill
the fuel tank immediately regardless of the
value of driving range shown in the display.
As the driving range after refueling is cal-
culated based on the last driving condition,
the value is different each time you refuel.
NOTE:
When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-
minal to the battery, the value of driving
range will be shown after driving for a
while.
For new vehicle with low mileage, the
driving range may not be shown
promptly in the display when beginning
to drive. The driving range will be shown
after a while.
NOTE:
The values of fuel consumption and driving
range shown in the display are affected by
conditions such as the following;
road condition
surrounding traffic condition
driving condition
vehicle condition
when the malfunction indicator light
comes on or blinks

interfere or deflect radio reception, causing
poor reception. Poor reception or radio
static can also be caused by electric cur-
rent from overhead wires or high voltage
power lines.
