&Double trip meter
Type A
1) Trip knob
Type B
1) Trip knob (U.S.-spec. models)
2) Trip knob (except U.S.-spec. models)
This meter displays the two trip meters
when the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position.
The trip meter shows the distance that the
vehicle has been driven since you last set
it to zero.
If you press the trip knob when the ignition
switch is in the “LOCK”/ “OFF”or “ACC ”
position, the odometer/trip meter will light
up. It is possible to switch between the A
trip meter and B trip meter indications
while the odometer/trip meter is lit up. If
you do not press the trip knob within 10
seconds of illumination of the odometer/
trip meter, the odometer/trip meter will turn
off.
Also, if you open and close the driver ’s

“ON ”position.
To set the trip meter to zero, select the A
trip or B trip meter by pressing the knob
and keep the knob pressed for more than
2 seconds.
CAUTION
To ensure safety, do not attempt to
change the function of the indicator
during driving, as an accident could
result.
NOTE
If the connection between the combina-
tion meter and battery is broken for any
reason such as vehicle maintenance or
fuse replacement, the data recorded on
the trip meter will be lost.
& Tachometer
The tachometer shows the engine speed
in thousands of revolutions per minute.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine with the
pointer of the tachometer in the red
zone. In this range, fuel injection will
be cut by the engine control module
to protect the engine from overrev-

ving. The engine will resume run-
ning normally after the engine speed
is reduced below the red zone.
NOTE
To protect the engine/transmission
while the select lever is in the“P ” or
“N ”position (for CVT models) or the
shift lever is in the neutral position (for
MT models), the engine is controlled so
that the engine speed may not become
too high even if the accelerator pedal is
pressed hard.
& Fuel gauge
Fuel gauge (type A)
1) Trip knob
Fuel gauge (type B)
1) Trip knob (U.S.-spec. models)
2) Trip knob (except U.S.-spec. models)
The fuel gauge is displayed when the
ignition is in the “ON”position, and it
shows the approximate amount of fuel
remaining in the tank.
The gauge indication may change slightly
during braking, turning or acceleration due
to fuel level movement in the tank.
If you press the trip knob while the ignition
switch is in the “LOCK”/ “OFF”or “ACC ”
position, the fuel gauge will light up and
indicate the amount of fuel remaining in
the tank. If, while the fuel gauge is
indicating the amount of fuel remaining in
the tank, you (a) do not press the trip knob
for 10 seconds or (b) open and close the driver
’s door, the fuel gauge indication will
turn off.
NOTE
You will see the “”sign in the fuel
gauge. This indicates that the fuel filler
door (lid) is located on the right side of
the vehicle.
& ECO gauge (if equipped)
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models
The ECO gauge shows the difference
between the current rate of fuel consump-
tion and the average rate of fuel consump-
tion since the trip meter was last reset.
If the needle of the gauge moves towards
the right side, this indicates better fuel

&Outside temperature indica-
tor
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models
The outside temperature indicator shows
the outside temperature in a range from
−40 to 1228 F(−40 to 50 8C).
The indicator can give a false reading
under any of the following conditions.
. When there is too much sun.
. During idling; while running at low
speeds in a traffic jam; when the engine
is restarted immediately following a shut-
down.
. When the actual outside temperature
falls outside the specified indicator range. !
Road surface freeze warning indi-
cation
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models
When the outside temperature drops to
378F(3 8C) or lower, the temperature
indication flashes to show that the road
surface may be frozen.
If the outside temperature drops to 37 8F
(3 8C) or lower while the display is giving
an indication other than the outside
temperature, the display switches to the
outside temperature indication and flashes
for 5 seconds before returning to its
original indication.
If the display is already indicating an
outside temperature of 37 8F(3 8C) or lower
when the ignition switch is turned to the “
ON ”position, the indication does not
flash.
NOTE
The outside temperature indication
may differ from the actual outside
temperature. The road surface freeze
warning indication should be treated
only as a guide. Be sure to check the
condition of the road surface before
driving.

sequence.!Driving range on remaining fuel
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models
The driving range indicates the distance
that can be driven taking into account the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank and
the average rate of fuel consumption.
When the low fuel warning light illumi-
nates, the driving range display flashes for
5 seconds. (The display first switches to
the driving range value if a different value
was previously displayed.)
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models
If the driving range is shown as “”,
there is only a tiny amount of fuel left in the
tank. You must refuel the vehicle immedi-
ately.
NOTE
The driving range on remaining fuel is
only a guide. The indicated value may
differ from the actual driving range on
remaining fuel, so you must immedi-
ately fill the tank when the low fuel
warning light illuminates.

!Average fuel consumption
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models
This display shows the average rate of
fuel consumption since the trip meter was
last reset.
1) Trip knob
Pressing the trip knob toggles the display
between the average fuel consumption
corresponding to the A trip meter display
and the average fuel consumption corre-
sponding to the B trip meter display.
When either of the trip meter displays is
reset, the correspon ding average fuel
consumption value is also reset.
NOTE
. The indicated values vary in accor-
dance with changes in the vehicle ’s
running conditions. Also, the indicated
values may differ slightly from the
actual values and should thus be
treated only as a guide.
. When either trip meter display is
reset, the average fuel consumption corresponding to that trip meter dis-
play is not shown until the vehicle has
subsequently covered a distance of 1
mile (or 1 km).
!
Current fuel consumption
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models

Pressing the trip knob toggles the display
between the average vehicle speed cor-
responding to the A trip meter display and
the average vehicle speed corresponding
to the B trip meter display.
When either of the trip meter displays is
reset, the corresponding average vehicle
speed value is also reset.
NOTE
When either trip meter display is reset,
the average vehicle speed correspond-
ing to that trip meter display is not
shown until the vehicle has subse-
quently covered a distance of 1 mile
(or 1 km).
