Pushing the “SELECT” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode and the tripmeter modes in the
following order:

When approximately 3.0 L (0.79 US
gal, 0.66 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “F Trip” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point. In that
case, pushing the “SELECT” button
switches the display between the vari-
ous tripmeter and odometer modes in
the following order:
Odo
→
F Trip

“Trip-A” or “Trip-B” is displayed. While
“F Trip”, “Trip-A” or “Trip-B” is dis-
played, push the “RESET” button for at
least one second. If you do not reset
the fuel reserve tripmeter manually, it
will reset itself automatically and the
display will return to the prior mode af-
ter refueling and traveling 5 km (3 mi).
TIP

The display cannot be changed back to
“F Trip” after pushing the “RESET” but-
ton.
Oil change indicator “OIL”
