Trip computer (if equipped)
The trip computer is a microcomput-
er-controlled driver information sys-
tem that displays information related
to driving, including distance traveled
("tripmeter"), driving time, average
fuel consumption and distance to
empty on the LCD. All stored driving
information is reset if the battery is
disconnected.
Mode
Push TRIP button to select tripmeter,
driving time, average fuel consump-
tion and distance to empty functions.
Each push of the button changes the
display as follows;
Tripmeter
(“TRIP” shown on display)
This mode indicates the total dis-
tance traveled since the last tripme-
ter reset.
The meter's working range is from
0.0 to 999.9 km (0.0 to 999.9 miles).
Pressing the TRIP button for more
than 1 second, when the tripmeter is
being displayed, clears the tripmeter

Distance to empty (“RANGE”
shown on display)
This mode indicates the estimated
distance to empty based on the cur-
rent fuel in the fuel tank and the
amount of fuel delivered to the
engine. When the remaining distance
is below 50 km (30 miles), a blinking
“----” symbol will be displayed.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• If the vehicle is not on level ground
or the battery power has been
interrupted, the “Distance to
empty” function may not operate
correctly.
The trip computer may not regis-
ter additional fuel if less than 6
liters (1.6 gallons) of fuel are
added to the vehicle.
• The fuel consumption and dis- tance to empty values may vary
significantly based on driving con-
ditions, driving habits, and condi-
tion of the vehicle.
• The distance to empty value is an estimate of the available driving
distance. This value may differ
from the actual driving distance
available.
ECO ON/OFF mode (if equipped)
You can turn the ECO indicator on/off
on the instrument cluster in this
mode.
If you push the TRIP button more
than 1 second in the ECO ON mode,
ECO OFF is displayed in the screen
and the ECO indicator turns off.
If you want to display the ECO indi-
cator again, press the TRIP button
more than 1 second in the ECO OFF
mode and then ECO ON mode is
displayed in the screen.
When you press the TRIP button less
than 1 second in the ECO mode, the

Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes dischargedin a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlights or interior lights
were left on while the vehicle was
not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours.
Items to be reset after the batteryhas been discharged or the bat-tery has been disconnected.
