displayed, however, pressing the selector
can inadvertently switch the trip meters or
reset them during an approximate ten-
minute period in the following cases:
 y After the ignition is switched to off from

the vehicle has been driven.
Trip meter
The trip meter can record the total distance
of two trips. One is recorded in trip meter

depressing and holding the selector for
one second or more. Use this meter to
measure trip distances and to compute fuel
consumption.
NOTE

function which synchronizes the fuel
economy monitor and the trip meter is
