Turn-by-turn navigation (vehicles with navigation system)
When disconnecting and reconnecting battery terminals
The following information data will be reset:
Average fuel consumption after refueling
Average fuel consumption
Average vehicle speed
CAUTION
The information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the information dis-
play. At extremely low temperatures, the information display monitor may
respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear
number appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to down-
shift again, causing rapid and excessive engine braking and possibly an
accident resulting in death or serious injury.
The turn-by-turn navigation appears only
while route guidance of the navigation
system is being performed. When a turn
approaches, the distance to the turn and
the turn direction are displayed.

Daytime running light system
To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the front position
lights turn on automatically (at an increased intensity) whenever the
engine is started and the parking brake is released. Daytime running
lights are not designed for use at night.
Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system
offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help
improve fuel economy.

may cause the automatic headlight sys-
tem to malfunction.
