Driving range
N00500700028
This value shows the distance (in miles or km) that can be
driven on the fuel remaining in the fuel tank.NOTEIf the driving range drops below 30 miles (50 km) while
the driving range is displayed, the display shows “--”.
When this occurs, replenish the fuel tank as soon as possi-
ble.
When the system cannot provide a definite value for the
driving range, the display shows “---”.
The driving range varies depending on road conditions,
the manner of driving and other related factors. Conse-
quently, the display should be used only as a guide. It is
recommended to add fuel as soon as the low-fuel warning
light in the instrument cluster illuminates.
(Refer to “Low-fuel warning light” on page 3-80.)
Refueling will update the driving range indication.
The driving range displayed is based on previous fuel
economy data. Disconnecting the battery cable will result
in the deletion of existing fuel consumption data, which
will affect the unit’s calculations.
The driving range figure can occasionally increase if the
vehicle is stopped on an incline. This is normal, as the fuel
has moved in the tank because of the incline.
Average speed
N00500800029
The average speed (B) from the time when the display was last
reset to the present moment is shown with a graph. For instruc-
tions on resetting the display, refer to “To reset the display” on
page 3-105.NOTEThe range (A) for which historical data are shown in the
graph can be changed. Refer to “Graph indication” on
page 3-106.
The unit for the average speed can be set to mph or km/h.
Refer to “Display unit selection” on page 3-106 or “Units
customization” on page 3-120.
When the system cannot provide a definite value for aver-
age speed, it is displayed as “--”.

When the ignition switch is turned on, the average speed
which was being displayed when the ignition switch was
previously turned off will be displayed once again. Average fuel economy
N00500900033
The average fuel economy (B) from the time when the display
was last reset to the present moment is shown together with a
graph. For instructions on resetting the display, refer to “To
reset the display” on page 3-105.NOTEThe range (A) for which historical data are shown in the
graph can be changed. Refer to “Graph indication” on
page 3-106.
The unit for the average fuel economy can be set to mpg
or L/100 km. Refer to “Display unit selection” on page
3-106 or “Units customization” on page 3-120.When the system cannot provide a definite value for aver-
age fuel economy, it is displayed as “--.-”.
When the ignition switch is turned on, the average fuel
economy which was being displayed when the ignition
switch was previously turned off will be displayed once
again.
Average fuel economy varies according to the conditions
under which a vehicle is travelling (road conditions, the
manner in which the vehicle is being driven, etc.).
Actual fuel economy may differ from the displayed aver-
age fuel economy.

Elevation/Barometer
N00501300063
The elevation (A) of the vehicle’s present location and a
barometer (C) are shown together with a graph. For instruc-
tions on resetting the historical data in the graph, refer to “To
reset the display” on page 3-105.
NOTEThe range (B) for which historical data are shown in the
graph can be changed. Refer to “Graph indication” on
page 3-106.
The unit for elevation can be set to feet or meters. Refer to
“Display unit selection” on page 3-106 or “Units customi-
zation” on page 3-120.
The display can show elevations up to 12,000 feet (4,000
meters).
The altimeter displays the elevation to the nearest 200 feet
(50 meters). When the vehicle is below sea level, the ele-
vation is shown as 0 feet (0 meters).
The unit for the atmospheric pressure can be set to in.Hg,
hPa, kPa, or mb.
Refer to “Units customization” on page 3-120.
The display can show the atmospheric pressure in the
range from 18.1 in.Hg (614 hPa) to 31.2 in.Hg
(1,058 hPa).
The altimeter works by using changes in atmospheric
pressure. This means it may be affected by changes in the
weather and other conditions, and show a figure different
from the real elevation.
Fluctuations in air pressure may change the figure dis-
played even when the vehicle remains in the same place.
This is normal.
