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
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 a new vehicle with low mileage, the
driving range may not be shown
promptly in the display when begining 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

Front Passenger’s Seat Belt
Reminder Light
80J021
The front passenger’s seat belt reminder
light is located in the information display. If
there is a passenger in the front seat and
the front passenger’s seat belt is unbuck-
led about 10 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position, this
light will come on and then blink. When the
light comes on, a buzzer will also sound
intermittently for about 6 seconds. The
reminder will repeat several times under
certain conditions until the front passen-
ger’s seat belt is buckled. After repeating
several times, the reminder will be can-
celed even if the front passenger’s seat
belt remains unbuckled.

System Operating InstructionsNatural ventilation
Select “VENTILATION” and “FRESH AIR”,
the temperature selector to the desired
temperature position, and the blower
speed selector to “OFF”. Fresh air will flow
through the vehicle during driving.
Forced ventilation
The control settings are the same as for
natural ventilation except you set the
blower speed selector to a position other
than “OFF”.
Normal heating (using outside air)
Select “HEAT” and “FRESH AIR”, the tem-
perature selector to the desired tempera-
ture position and the blower speed selector
to the desired blower speed position. Set-
ting the blower speed selector to a higher
blower speed position increases heating
efficiency.
Quick heating (using recirculated air)
The control settings are the same as for
normal heating except you select “RECIR-
CULATED AIR”. If you use this heating
method for an extended period of time, the
air in the vehicle can become contami-
nated and the windows can become misty.
Therefore, use this method only for quick
heating and change to the normal heating
method as soon as possible.
Head cooled/Feet warmed heating
Select “BI-LEVEL” and “FRESH AIR”, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-perature position, and the blower speed
selector to the desired blower speed posi-
tion. Unless the temperature selector is in
the fully COLD position or fully HOT posi-
tion, the air that comes out of the center
and side outlets will be cooler than the air
that comes out of the floor outlets.
Defrosting/Feet warmed heating
Select “HEAT & DEFROST” and “FRESH
AIR”, the temperature selector to the
desired temperature position, and the
blower speed selector to HIGH. When the
windshield has become clear, set the
blower speed selector to the desired
blower speed position.
Defrosting
Select “DEFROST” and “FRESH AIR”, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position (higher temperature pro-
vides more efficient defrosting), and the
blower speed selector to HIGH. When the
windshield has become clear, set the
blower speed selector to the desired
blower speed position.

NOTE:
If you need maximum defrosting, adjust the
temperature selector to the HOT end and
adjust the side outlets so the air blows on
the side window, in addition to the above
Defrosting steps.

outlets, the side defroster outlets and the
side outlets.
Defrost (e)
79J069
Temperature-controlled air comes out of
the windshield defroster outlets, the side
defroster outlets and the side outlets.
NOTE:
When the air flow selector (3) is turned
either to “Heat & defrost (d)” or “Defrost
(e)”, the air conditioning system will come
on and the “FRESH AIR” mode will be
selected automatically.Air intake selector (4)
63J047
This selector is used to select the following
modes.
Fresh Air (f)
When this mode is selected, the indicator
light will go off and outside air is used.
Recirculated Air (g)
When this mode is selected, the indicator
light will come on, outside air is shut out
and inside air is recirculated. This mode is
suitable when driving through dusty or pol-
luted air such as in a tunnel, or when
attempting to quickly cool down the inte-
rior.
“FRESH AIR” and “RECIRCULATED AIR”
are switched alternately each time the air
intake selector is pushed.
NOTE:
If you select “RECIRCULATED AIR” for an
extended period of time, the air in the vehi-
cle can become contaminated. Therefore,
you should occasionally select “FRESH
AIR”.Air conditioning switch (5)
To turn on the air conditioning system,
push in the “A/C” switch and set the blower
speed selector to a position other than
“OFF”. With this “A/C” switch operation, a
indicator light will come on when the air
conditioning system is on. To turn off the
air conditioning system, push the “A/C”
switch again.
During operation of the air conditioner, you
may notice slight changes in engine
speed. These changes are normal, the
system is designed so that the compressor
turns on or off to maintain the desired tem-
perature.
Less operation of the compressor results
in better fuel economy.

Normal cooling
Turn on the “A/C” switch, set the air flow
selector to “VENTILATION”, the tempera-
ture selector to the desired temperature
position and the blower speed selector to
the desired blower speed position. Setting
the blower speed selector to a higher
blower speed position increases cooling
efficiency.
You can switch the air intake selector to
either “FRESH AIR” or “RECIRCULATED
AIR” as you desire. Choosing “RECIRCU-
LATED AIR” increases cooling efficiency.
Quick cooling (using recirculated air)
The control settings are the same as for
normal cooling except you select “RECIR-
CULATED AIR” and the highest blower
speed.
NOTE:
 If you select “RECIRCULATED AIR” for
an extended period of time, the air in the
vehicle can become contaminated.
Therefore, you should occasionally
select “FRESH AIR”.
 If your vehicle has been left in the sun
with the windows closed, it will cool
faster if you open the windows brieflywhile you operate the air conditioner with
the air intake selector at “FRESH AIR”
and the blower at high speed.
Dehumidifying
Turn on the “A/C” switch, set the air flow
selector to a desired air flow selector posi-
tion, and select “FRESH AIR”, the temper-
ature selector to the desired temperature
position, and the blower speed selector to
the desired blower speed position.
NOTE:
Because the air conditioner dehumidifies
the air, turning it on will help keep the win-
dows clear, even when blowing heated air
using the “DEFROST” or “HEAT &
DEFROST” functions.
