panel brightness.
Brighten: Turn the knob to the right.

reaches minimum or maximum. The
intelligent multi-information display (i-MID)
will return to its original state several seconds
after you adjust the brightness.
■Brightness level indicator
The brightness level is shown on the i-MID
while you are adjusting it.
As the brightness level increases to the right,
the instrument panel gets brighter.

Instrument panel brightne ss varies, depending on
whether the exterior lights are on or off. The
instrument panel dims to reduce glare when they are
on.
Pressing the (Select/Reset) knob or the
(display/information) button changes to a different
display.

The brightness can be set differently for when the
exterior lights are on, and when they are off.
