Electric chromic mirror (ECM)
The electric chromic mirror automatically
controls the glare from the headlights of
the car behind you in nighttime or low
light driving conditions. The sensor
mounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and automati-
cally controls the headlight glare from
vehicles behind you.
When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into R
(Reverse), the mirror will automatically
go to the brightest setting in order to
improve the drivers view behind the vehi-
cle.To operate the electric rearview mirror:
• Press the ON/OFF button (1) to turn
the automatic dimming function on.
The mirror indicator light will illuminate.
Press the ON/OFF button to turn the
automatic dimming function off. The

• The mirror defaults to the ON position
whenever the ignition switch is turned
on.

Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the approxi-
mate number of engine revolutions per
minute (rpm).
Use the tachometer to select the correct
shift points and to prevent lugging and/or
over-revving the engine. When the door
is open, or if the engine is not started
within 1 minute, the tachometer pointer
may move slightly in ON position with the
engine OFF. This movement is normal
and will not affect the accuracy of the
tachometer once the engine is running.
D150203AUN
Engine temperature gauge
This gauge shows the temperature of the
engine coolant when the ignition switch
is ON.
Do not continue driving with an overheat-
ed engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer
to “If the engine overheats” in section 6.
CAUTION
If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the
“H” position, it indicates overheat-
ing that may damage the engine.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine within
the tachometer's RED ZONE. This
may cause severe engine damage.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. The engine
coolant is under pressure and
could cause severe burns. Wait
until the engine is cool before
adding coolant to the reservoir.

Trip computer
The trip computer is a microcomputer-
controlled driver information system that
displays information related to driving,
including odometer, tripmeter, elapsed
time, average speed, average fuel con-
sumption (if equipped), instant fuel con-
sumption and distance to empty on the
display when the ignition switch is in the
ON position. All stored driving informa-
tion (except odometer) is reset if the bat-
tery is disconnected.

Average speed (km/h or MPH)
This mode calculates the average speed
of the vehicle since the last average
speed reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
average speed keeps going while the
engine is running.
Pressing the DISP button (or the RESET
button) for more than 1 second, when the
average speed is being displayed, clears
the average speed to zero (---). If the igni-
tion switch is turned to OFF for more than
2 hours, it will be reset automatically.Elapsed time
This mode indicates the total time trav-
eled since the last driving time reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
driving time keeps going while the engine
is running.
The meter’s working range is from
0:00~99:59.
Pressing the DISP button (or the RESET
button) for more than 1 second, when the
driving time is being displayed, clears the
driving time to zero (0:00). If the ignition
switch is turned to OFF for more than 2
hours, it will be reset automatically.Average fuel consumption (if equipped)
(l/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the average fuel
consumption from the total fuel used and
the distance since the last average con-
sumption reset. The total fuel used is cal-
culated from the fuel consumption input.
For an accurate calculation, drive more
than 50 m (0.03 miles).
Pressing the DISP button (or the RESET
button) for more than 1 second, when the
average fuel consumption is being dis-
played, clears the average fuel consump-
tion to zero (---).
If the vehicle speed exceeds 1 km/h after
refueled more than 6 l, the average fuel
consumption will be cleared to zero (---).
