Odometer/Trip odometerThe operation method is the same as when the ignition switch
is in the “OFF” position.
For further details, refer to “Odometer/Trip odometer” on page
3-166.Service reminderShows the distance and number of months until the next peri-
odic inspection.
Refer to “Service reminder” on page 3-181.Engine coolant temperature displayShows the engine coolant temperature.
If the coolant becomes hot, “ ” will blink.
Pay careful attention to the engine coolant temperature display
while you are driving.
Driving range displayShows the approximate driving range (how many more miles
or kilometers you can drive) with the current fuel level. When
this driving range falls below 30 miles (50 km), “---” is dis-
played.
Refuel as soon as possible.NOTE
The driving range is determined based on the fuel con-
sumption data. This may vary depending on the driving
conditions and habits. Treat the distance displayed as just
a rough guideline.

When you refuel, the driving range display is automati-
cally updated.
However, if you only add a small amount of fuel, the cor-
rect value will not be displayed. Fill to a full tank when-
ever possible.

When your vehicle is stopped on an extremely steep hill,
the driving range value may change. This is due to the
movement of fuel in the tank and does not indicate any
problem.

The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
(miles or km).
Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-184.
CAUTION

If the engine is overheating, “ ” will blink. In this
case, the bar graph is on the red zone. Immediately
park the vehicle in a safe place and take the required
measures. Refer to “Engine overheating” on page 6-

Average speed displayThis displays the average speed from the last reset to the
present.
There are 2 types of mode settings as follows.
For details on how to change the average speed display setting,
refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition switch
in the “ON” position)” on page 3-184.
Manual reset mode

When the average speed is being displayed, if you hold
down the multi-information meter switch, the average
speed displayed at that time is reset.

When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position
from the “ACC” or “LOCK” position, the mode setting
changes automatically from manual to auto.
Switching to auto occurs automatically. If switching to
manual mode is done, however, the data from the last
reset is displayed.
Auto reset mode

When the average speed is being displayed, if you hold
down the multi-information meter switch, these calcula-
tions will be reset to zero.

When the ignition switch has been set to the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position for about 4 hours or more, the average
speed display will automatically reset.NOTE
The average speed display and the average fuel consump-
tion display can be reset separately in both auto reset
mode and manual reset mode.

“---” is displayed when the average speed cannot be mea-
sured.
The initial (default) setting is “Auto reset mode”.

The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
(mph or km/h).
Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-184.

The average speed display memories for auto reset mode
and manual reset mode are erased if the battery is discon-
nected.
Average fuel consumption displayThis displays the average fuel consumption from the last reset
to the present.
There are 2 types of mode settings as follows.
For details on how to change the average fuel consumption dis-
play setting, refer to “Changing the function settings (With
ignition switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-184.
The “ ” mark in the momentary fuel gauge shows the average
fuel consumption. (Type 2)
Manual reset mode

When the average fuel consumption is being displayed, if
you hold down the multi-information meter switch, the
average fuel consumption displayed at that time is reset.

When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position
from the “ACC” or “LOCK” position, the mode setting
changes automatically from manual to auto.
Switching to auto occurs automatically. If switching to
manual mode is done, however, the data from the last

Auto reset mode

When the average fuel consumption is being displayed, if
you hold down the multi-information meter switch, these
calculations will be reset to zero.

When the ignition switch has been set to the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position for about 4 hours or more, the average
speed display will automatically reset. NOTE
The average speed display and the average fuel consump-
tion display can be reset separately in both auto reset
mode and manual reset mode.

“---” is displayed when the average fuel consumption can-
not be measured.

The initial (default) setting is “Auto reset mode”.

Average fuel consumption may vary depend on the driv-
ing conditions (road conditions, how you drive, etc.) The
actual fuel consumption may differ from the fuel con-
sumption displayed, so treat the fuel consumption dis-
played as just a rough guideline.

The average fuel consumption display memories for auto
reset mode and manual reset mode are erased if the battery
is disconnected.

The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
{mpg(US), mpg(UK), L/100 km or km/L}.
Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-184.
Momentary fuel consumption displayWhile driving, the momentary fuel consumption is shown with
a bar graph.
When the momentary fuel consumption surpasses the average
fuel consumption, the momentary fuel consumption is dis-
played with a green bar graph. (Type 2)
Be conscious of maintaining the momentary fuel consumption
above the average fuel consumption, it can help you drive with
the better fuel consumption.NOTE
When the momentary fuel consumption cannot be mea-
sured, a bar graph is not shown.

The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
{mpg (US), mpg (UK), L/100 km or km/L}.
Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-184.

It is possible to cancel the green bar graph.
Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-184.Function setting screenThe “Display language”, “Temperature unit”, “Fuel consump-
tion unit”, and “Average fuel consumption and speed reset
method” settings can be modified as desired.
