5-34 Instruments and Controls
To adjust the HUD so it can be seen
properly, do the following:
1. Start the engine and press theHUD dimmer control all the way
up by pressing the (+) button.
The brightness of the HUD
image is determined by the
light conditions in the direction
the vehicle is facing and where
you have the HUD dimmer
control set. If you are facing a
dark object or a heavily shaded
area, the HUD may anticipate
that you are entering a dark
area and may begin to dim.
It is possible for sunlight to enter
the HUD making it difficult to
see the image. The display
will return to normal when the
sunlight is no longer entering
the HUD. 2. Adjust the seat to a comfortable
driving position. If your seat
position changes, the HUD
may need to be re-adjusted.
3. Press the up or down arrows to center the HUD image in
your view.
The HUD image can only be
adjusted up and down, not
side-to-side.
4. Press the dimmer control downward until the HUD image
is no brighter than necessary.
To turn HUD off, press and hold the
(–) button until the HUD display
turns off.
If the sun comes out or it becomes
cloudy, the HUD brightness may
need to be adjusted again using
the dimmer control. Polarized
sunglasses could make the HUD
image harder to see. The HUD information can be
displayed in one of six languages
including English, Spanish, French,
German, Italian or Japanese.
The speedometer can be displayed
in either English or Metric units.
To change the language and unit
selections, see
“OPTION”under
“Operation and Displays” inDriver
Information Center (DIC) on
page 5‑25.
Clean the inside of the windshield
as needed to remove any dirt or film
that reduces the sharpness or clarity
of the HUD image.
To clean the HUD, spray household
glass cleaner on a soft, clean cloth.
Wipe the HUD lens gently, then dry
it. Do not spray cleaner directly on
the lens because the cleaner could
leak into the unit.
