(a) Trip meter A (b) Trip meter B (c) Odometer(d) Instantaneous fuel consumption (e) Average fuel consumption (f) Driving range
NOTE:• Indications will change when you pushand release a knob.• The display shows estimated values.Indications may not be the same as actual values.Trip meter The trip meter can be used to measure the distance traveled on short trips or between fuel stops.You can use the trip meter A or trip meter B independently.
To reset the trip meter to zero, push and hold the trip meter selector knob (1) for a while when the display shows the tripmeter.
NOTE: The indicated maximum value of the trip meter is 9999.9. When you run past the
maximum value, the indicated value willreturn to 0.0.
Odometer The odometer records the total distance the vehicle has been driven.
Instantaneous Fuel ConsumptionThe display shows the value of instanta- neous fuel consumption only when the vehi- cle is moving.
NOTE:• The display does not show the valueunless the vehicle is moving.• The indicated maximum value of instanta-neous fuel consumption is 30. No more than 30 will be indicated on the displayeven if the actual instantaneous fuel con-sumption is higher.• The indication on the display may bedelayed if fuel consumption is greatly affected by driving conditions.• The display shows estimated values. Indi-cations may not be the same as actual values.• You can change the units that instanta-neous fuel consumption is displayed in.Refer to “Average fuel consumption” in this section.
Average fuel consumptionIf you selected average fuel consumptionthe last time you drove the vehicle, the dis- play shows the last value of average fuelconsumption from previous driving when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”position. Unless you reset the value of aver- age fuel consumption, the display indicates the value of average fuel consumption which includes average fuel consumptionduring previous driving.
To reset the average fuel consumption to zero, push and hold the indicator selector knob (2) for a while when the display shows the average fuel consumption.
NOTE: When you reset the indication or reconnectthe negative (–) terminal to the battery, the value of average fuel consumption will be shown after driving for a while.
To change the unit of average fuel con- sumption, while pushing and holding thetrip meter selector knob (1), turn the indi- cator selector knob (2).

For maintenance-free battery (cap-less type), you need not add water. For tradi-tional type battery, which has water filler caps, the level of the battery solution must be kept between the “MAX” and the “MIN”level lines at all times. If the level is found tobe below the “MIN” level line, add distilledwater to the “MAX” level line. You shouldperiodically check the battery, battery termi- nals, and battery hold-down bracket for cor- rosion. Remove corrosion using a stiff brushand ammonia mixed with water, or bakingsoda mixed with water. After removing cor-rosion, rinse with clean water.
If your vehicle is not going to be driven for amonth or longer, disconnect the cable fromthe negative terminal of the battery to help prevent discharge.
