1. Outside temperature (“OUTSIDE C”
or “OUTSIDE F”)
The outside temperature display indi-
cates the outside air temperature.
The displayed value is updated every 1
second.
The displayed temperature ranges from
− 30 C ( −22 F) up to 50 C (122 F).
If an abnormality exists in the connection
of the outside air temperature sensor,
“ −− C” (“ −−F”) will appear on the display.
If “ −−C” (“ −−F”) appears on the display,
contact your Toyota dealer.
There may be a case that “−− C” (“ −−F”)
appears momentarily when the engine
switch is quickly turned to “ON”. It is
normal if it goes out soon.
2. Average fuel consumption (“AVG MPG” or “AVG L/100 km”)
Average fuel consumption is calculated
and displayed based on total driving
distance and total fuel consumption
with the engine running.
The displayed value is updated every 1
seconds.
To reset the calculations, return the mode
to “AVG” and push and hold the “MODE”
and “E/M” button simultaneously for 2 sec-
onds. 3. Instantaneous fuel consumption
(“INST MPG” or “INST L/100 km”)
The instantaneous fuel consumption is
calculated and displayed based on dis-
tance and fuel consumption for 1 sec-
onds with the engine running.
The displayed value is updated every 2
seconds.
Note that an accurate figure may not be
shown in the following cases.
The vehicle is stopped with the engine
running. (The display will indicate the
extremely high fuel consumption.)
The vehicle is driving down a long
slope applying the engine brake. (The
display will indicate the extremely low
fuel consumption.)
The calculation is reset when the engine
switch is turned off. 4. Distance to empty (“DTE MI” or “DTE km”)
The distance the vehicle can travel with
the remaining fuel is calculated and
displayed based on the quantity of re-
maining fuel and past fuel consumption.
The displayed value is updated every 1
second. Every time you refuel the vehicle, the cal-
culation is reset. However, when only a
small amount of fuel is added to the tank,
the display may not be reset.
The actual driving range varies with driv-
ing habits and road conditions. If fuel con-
sumption is good, the driving range will be
longer. If fuel consumption is poor, the
driving range will be shorter.

The compass indicates the direction
that the vehicle is heading. In the
above case, it shows that the vehicle is
heading south.
The direction display is updated every 2
seconds.Displays

The compass may not show the correct
direction in the following conditions:
The vehicle is stopped immediately af-
ter turning.
The compass does not adjust while the
vehicle is stopped.
The engine switch is turned off immedi-
ately after turning.
The vehicle is on an inclined surface.
The vehicle is in a place where the
earth’s magnetic field is subject to in-
terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).
The vehicle is magnetized. (There is a
magnet or a metal object on or near
the roof.)
The battery has been disconnected.
The compass works to calibrate the direc-
tion automatically while the vehicle is in
motion, if deviation is small.
For additional precision or for complete
calibrating, see “CALIBRATING THE
COMPASS” below. If the direction is not indicated or the
system does not operate pr
operly, contact
your Toyota dealer.

The compass sensor is on the roof of
the vehicle.
NOTICE
Do not put magnets or a metal object
on or near the roof of the vehicle.
Doing this may cause malfunction of
the compass sensor.
CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (deviation
calibration)
The direction display on the compass
deviates from the true direction deter-
mined by the earth’s magnetic field. The
angle of deviation varies according to the
geographic position of the vehicle.
To adjust for this deviation;1. Stop the vehicle in a level place and switch the display to the outside tem-
perature. (To switch to this mode, see
“—Outside temperature and cruise in-
formation display” on page 376.)
2. Push and hold both the “MODE” and “E/M” buttons simultaneously for 5 sec-
onds until the “VAR” indication appears
on the compass display.
3. Push the “E/M” button several times until the desired zone number appears
on the compass display.
If the button is not pushed for 10 sec-
onds, the display returns to the compass/
outside temperature mode and the number
that is last set is memorized.
To select the zone where the vehicle is
currently located, refer to the following
map.

After calibration, leaving the system for

Do not adjust the display while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.

CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (circling
calibration)
Sometimes the direction display on the
compass may not change after a turn. In
this case, the compass needs to be cali-
brated.
To calibrate the compass manually, do the
following;1. Stop the vehicle in a level place and switch the display to the outside tem-
perature. (To switch to this mode, see
“—Outside temperature and cruise in-
formation display” on page 376.) 2. Push and hold both the “MODE” and
“E/M” buttons simultaneously for 10
seconds until the “CAL” indication ap-
pears on the compass display. (At this
time, the compass display is locked in
“N”.)3. Drive the vehicle in a circle at 8 km/h(5 mph) or less. If there is not enough
space to drive in a circle, drive around
the block.
When the “CAL” indication goes off and
the compass returns to the normal mode,
calibration is complete.
If you want to restart the calibration be-
fore it is complete, push both of the
“MODE” and “E/M” buttons simultaneously
for 10 seconds again.

Perform circling calibration just after
you have purchased your Toyota. And
then always perform circling calibration
after the battery has been removed, re-
placed or disconnected.
Do not perform circling calibration of
the compass in a place where the
earth’s magnetic field is subject to in-
terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).
During calibration, do not operate elec-
tric systems (moon roof, power win-
dows, etc.) as they may interfere with
the calibration.
CAUTION
When doing the circling calibration,
be sure to secure a wide space,
and watch out for people and ve-
hicles in the neighborhood. Do not
violate any local traffic rules while
performing circling calibration.
Do not adjust the display while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.

disconnected from the clock, the time dis-
play will automatically be set to 1:00.
When the instrument panel lights are
turned on, the brightness of the time in-
dication will be reduced.The conversation mirror is designed for
the driver and front passenger to be
able to look at the rear passengers
without turning around.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the mirror only when the vehicle is
stopped.
To use the mirror, push it down.
