When the door is opened, or if the
engine is not started within 1 minute,
the tachometer pointer may move
slightly in the ON position with the
engine OFF. This movement is nor-
mal and will not affect the accuracy
of the tachometer once the engine is
running.

Engine temperature gauge
This gauge shows the temperature
of the engine coolant when the igni-
tion switch is ON.
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to “If the engine over-
heats” in section 6.
CAUTION
If the gauge pointer moves
beyond the normal range areatoward the “H” position, it indi-cates overheating that maydamage the engine.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine with-in the tachometer's RED ZONE.
This may cause severe enginedamage.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. The
engine coolant is under pres-
sure and could cause severe
burns. Wait until the engine is
cool before adding coolant to
the reservoir.OSL040065N/OSL044403

Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approx-
imate amount of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank. The fuel tank capacity is
given in section 8. The fuel gauge is
supplemented by a low fuel warning
light, which will illuminate when the
fuel tank is nearly empty.
On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the movement of
fuel in the tank.

Odometer/Tripmeter/TRIP com-puter (if equipped)
The trip computer is a microcomput-
er-controlled driver information sys-
tem that displays information related
to driving, such as odometer, tripme-
ter, distance to empty, average
speed, driving time, average fuel
consumption, and the ECOMIN-
DER
TMIndicator (ECO ON/OFF)
mode on the display when the igni-
tion switch is in the ON position. All
stored driving information (except
odometer and distance to empty) is
reset if the battery is disconnected.
WARNING - Fuel gauge
Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain addi-
tional fuel as soon as possible
after the warning light comes
on or when the gauge indicator
comes close to the E level.
CAUTION
Avoid driving with a extremely low fuel level. Running out offuel could cause the engine tomisfire, damaging the catalyticconverter.

Tripmeter
TRIP A : Tripmeter A
TRIP B : Tripmeter B
This mode indicates the distance of
individual trips selected since the
last tripmeter reset.
The meter's working range is from
0.0 to 999.9 km (0.0 to 999.9 miles).
Pressing the RESET button, when
the tripmeter (TRIP A or TRIP B) is
being displayed, clears the tripmeter
to zero (0.0).Distance to empty (km or mi.)
This mode indicates the estimated
distance to empty based on the cur-
rent fuel in the fuel tank and the
amount of fuel delivered to the
engine. When the remaining distance
is below 50 km (30 miles), “---” will be
displayed and the distance to empty
indicator (RANGE) will blink until the
vehicle is refueled.
The meter’s working range is from 50
to 990 km (30 to 990 miles).Average fuel consumption
(l/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the average
fuel consumption from the total fuel
used and the distance since the last
average consumption reset. The total
fuel used is calculated from the fuel
consumption input. For an accurate
calculation, drive more than 50 m
(0.03 miles).
Pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second, when the average
fuel consumption is being displayed,
clears the average fuel consumption
to zero (--.-).

If the vehicle speed exceeds 1 km/h
(1.6 MPH) after refueled more than 6
l (1.6 gallons), the average fuel con-
sumption will be cleared to zero (--.-).
Instant fuel consumption (if equipped)
(l/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the instant fuel
consumption during the last few sec-
onds.✽ ✽NOTICE
• If the vehicle is not on level ground
or the battery power has been
interrupted, the “Distance to
empty” function may not operate
correctly.
The trip computer may not regis-
ter additional fuel if less than 6
liters (1.6 gallons) of fuel are
added to the vehicle.
• The fuel consumption and dis- tance to empty values may vary
significantly based on driving con-
ditions, driving habits, and condi-
tion of the vehicle.
• The distance to empty value is an estimate of the available driving
distance. This value may differ
from the actual driving distance
available.
