Vehicles with multi −information display—
By changing the multi −information display
unit, the outside temperature display on
the accessory meter will change. (See
“Multi −information display” on page 187 in

The displayed temperature ranges from
−40 F ( −40 C) up to 122 F (50 C).
The engine switch must be in the “ON”
position.
If an abnormality exists in the connection
of the outside air temperature sensor,
“ −−− F” (“ −−−C”) will appear on the dis-
play. If “ −−−F” (“ −−−C”) appears on the
display, contact your Toyota dealer.
There may be a case that “−−− F”
(“−−− C”) appears momentarily when the
engine switch is quickly turned to “ON”.
It is normal if it goes out soon.

The outside temperature display and
cruise information display indicates the
following information.
Every time you push the “INFO” button,
the display toggles through this infor-
mation.
1. Outside temperature
2. Average fuel consumption
3. Instantaneous fuel consumption
4. Driving range
5. Display off
The displayed values in the cruise infor-
mation display indicate general driving
conditions. Accuracy varies with driving
habits and road conditions.
To set the unit, push the “SETUP US/M”
button until the desired unit display ap-
pears.
When the engine switch is on, the last
previously used mode displayed just be-
fore the engine switch is off will appear. 1. Outside temperature (“OUTSIDE
F”
or “OUTSIDE C”)
The outside temperature display indicates
the outside air temperature.
The displayed temperature ranges from
− 40 F ( −40 C) up to 122 F (50 C).
If an abnormality exists in the connection
of the outside air temperature sensor,
“ −−− F” (“ −−−C”) will appear on the dis-
play. If “ −−−F” (“ −−−C”) appears on the
display, contact your Toyota dealer.
There may be a case that “−−− F”
(“−−− C”) appears momentarily when the
engine switch is quickly turned to the
“ON” position. 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 about ev-
ery 10 seconds.
To reset the calculation, push the
“SELECT RESET” button about 2 second.

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 at 20 revo-
lutions of the engine.
The displayed value is updated for a short
time.
An accurate figure may not be shown if
the vehicle is driving down a long slope,
and engine brake is applied. (The display
will indicate the extremely low fuel con-
sumption.)
When the vehicle is stopped with the en-
gine running, “ −−, −MPG” will be shown
on the display.
The calculation is reset when the engine
switch is turned off. 4. Driving range (“RANGE MI” or
“RANGE 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 driving range display indicates the
approximate distance that you can drive
until the fuel gauge reaches “E”. It is
different from the actual distance traveled.
The displayed value is updated every time
the fuel equivalent for 1 mile or 1 km is
consumed.
Every time you refuel the vehicle, the cal-
culation is reset.
The actual driving range varies with driv-
ing habits and road conditions. If fuel effi-
ciency is good, the driving range will be
longer than indicated. If fuel efficiency is
poor, the driving range will be shorter than
indicated.
If the low fuel level warning light comes
on, refuel the vehicle even if the display
indicates that the vehicle can be driven
further.

When the instrument panel lights are
turned on, the brightness of the time indi-
cation will be reduced.
Intuitive parking assist
XS10061a
1: Rear sensors
2: Rear corner sensors
3: Front corner sensors
The intuitive parking assist is designed
to inform you of the approximate dis-
tance between your vehicle and an ob-
struction by indicator and buzzer when
parking the vehicle. This system uses
sensors to detect obstructions.
This system works when the engine
switch is in the “ON” position and the
transmission is not in the “P” position.
Rear and rear corner sensors work only
when the transmission is in the “R” posi-
tion.
Front corner sensors works when:
Transmission is in the “R” position.
Transmission is not in the “P” or “R”
position and vehicle speed is approxi-
mate 10 km/h (6 mph) or less.
