INFO:
Driving over a seam in the road may add front
torque, but this is not an anomaly.

INFO:
The reading that the brake meter displays when
the pedal is being depressed may vary, depend-
ing on the vehicle speed and road conditions.
The brake meter may not display a reading of
“100%” even when the brake is being fully
depressed. This is not a malfunction.
Steering
Displays the steering angle. This can only be
displayed as a small panel.
Small panel screen
INFO:
The amount of g-force exerted on the vehicle,
and displayed on the meter, will vary depending
on the driving speed.
Cornering G
Displays the lateral g-force exerted on the
vehicle. In the large panel, this meter displays
readings for the past 20 seconds. In the small
panel, this meter displays the lateral g-force
being exerted on the vehicle at the time of the
reading. When turning to the left, the resulting g-
force is displayed on the right side of the screen.
When turning to the right, the resulting g-force
is displayed on the left side of the screen. The
red zone readings are configured to function as

STEERING SCREEN
The steering screen allows you to confirm how
the vehicle responds to your driving by display-
ing the results of how you operate the vehicle.
The results of your driving are displayed as a
timeline of the g-force exerted on the vehicle.
Use the displayed information to improve your
steering smoothness.
WARNING
.Use the information from the multi
function meter strictly as a refer-
ence to make your driving more
comfortable. The readings are not
meant to prevent accidents caused
by reckless driving or poor driving
conditions (due to weather, road
condition, etc.) . Always obey all
traffic regulations and posted speed
limits.
. Red zone readings are configured to
function only as a guide for smooth
driving. The readings are not in-
tended to prevent accidents caused
by reckless driving.
How to view screen
&1CORNERING G (timeline graph of lateral g-
force):
Displays the lateral g-force exerted on the
vehicle. The horizontal readout displays lateral
g-force while the vertical readout displays a
timeline of the past 20 seconds of driving. G-
force exerted on the vehicle when turning left is
displayed on the right side of the screen. G-force
exerted on the vehicle when turning right is
displayed on the left side of the screen. The g-
force timeline will begin to scroll down auto-
matically after a short period of time.
&2Red zone display:
The color of the graph will change when the level
of g-force exerted on the vehicle while decelerat-
ing exceeds a preset level.
&3G-meter:
Displays the g-force currently being exerted on
the vehicle due to deceleration.
&4SPEED:
Displays the current driving speed.
&5STEERING:
Displays the angle of the steering wheel.
INFO:
. The extent to which the steering of the
vehicle is displayed on the meter may vary
depending on the vehicle speed.
. Due to the slope of a road, this meter may
register g-force even when the vehicle is
stopped. This is not a malfunction
. When the VDC or the ABS is activated, a
mark will appear on the far left side of the
panel (large panel only) .
. The scale of the readout is adjusted auto-
matically to accommodate readings that
exceed the upper limit of the meter.

Using result screens to improve
driving
This section explains how to use the driving
timeline screens. Use this information to make
your driving smoother.
INFO:
The criteria for smooth driving may vary depend-
ing on road conditions. Use this information for
reference purposes only.
Timeline and driving that show smooth
handling when driving through S-curve:
&1Turn the steering wheel slowly and the angle of
the graph slopes gently.
&2Turning the wheel slowly through the turn will
result in a smooth, curving line.
&3By turning the steering wheel slowly back to its
previous position, the line on the graph timeline
returns to its standard position and the vehicle
stabilizes.
Timeline and driving that show sudden
turning of steering wheel:
&1Because the wheel is turned quickly, the buildup
of the line is very sudden.
&2When the wheel is turned back quickly, the
resulting line appears as a point.
&3When the steering wheel is being turned in an
erratic manner, the vehicle is veering abruptly.
Because of this, the line on the panel fluctuates
without settling.
GEAR POSITION SCREEN
The GEAR POSITION screen displays the gear
you are currently in, the current speed, and the
fuel economy level for each gear. This allows you
to verify the best gear to use at your current
driving speed. Use this panel to improve your
operation of the shift lever or paddle shifters.
How to view screen
&1GEAR EFFICIENCY (displays the fuel economy
level):
Displays the current fuel economy level of each
gear. The lighter the blue color displayed, the
better the fuel economy will be. The lighter the
red color displayed, the higher the torque will be.
&2Speedometer (vertical):
Displays the current speed. This scale changes
with the speed of the vehicle.

This allows you to measure/display the timeline
and waypoint history over a given time.
STOPWATCH SCREEN
With the STOP WATCH screen you can
measure a segment of time or passing time.
You can also display and save recorded time-
lines and data.
How to view screen
&1TIME LOG:
Prominently displays the current time being
measured. The measured times are displayed in
a list. The system can store up to 99 items in its
memory.
&2Timer-on indicator:
The timer-on indicator will flash when the stop-
watch function is active.
&3SPEED:
Displays the vehicle speed while driving.
&4ELAPSED TIME:
Displays the total elapsed time measured since
the stopwatch function was started.
Measuring timed distance
To measure the timed distance, use STOP> or on the steering switch.
1. With the STOP WATCH screen displayed,
push . The timer-on in-
dicator will flash when the stopwatch func-
tion is active.
2. Each time you push the displayed
time will be recorded into the system and
will be viewable in the list.
3. Push . The stopwatch
function will stop timing.

DRIVER’S NOTES SCREEN
You can record the waypoints that you pass
using the DRIVER’S NOTES screen.
How to view screen
&1MARK LIST (waypoint list):
Displays a list of waypoints saved automatically or
manually.
&2Timer indicator:
Flashes while the timer is operating.
&3FUEL/RANGE:
Displays the amount of fuel and the distance the
vehicle can travel on the remaining fuel
&4TRIP DISTANCE:
Displays the driving time measured starting from
when the Driver’s notes function was activated.
NOTICE
Even when the cruising distance dis-
plays that the vehicle has a sufficient
amount of fuel to travel a given dis-
tance, when the fuel indicator ap-
proaches E (empty) , or the fuel
warning light illuminates, be sure to
fuel your vehicle.
Timing waypoints
To measure a waypoint, use
or on the steering switch.
