Speedometer
The speedometer shows the
vehicle's speed in either kilometers
per hour (km/h) or miles per
hour (mph).
Odometer
The odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven, in either
kilometers or miles.
Each time the reset knob is pressed
with the engine control switch in the
ON position, the odometer/trip meter
shows ODO, TRIP A, and TRIP B in
this sequence. With the key
removed, the odometer and trip
meter continue to indicate for about
five minutes.
Odometer Check Switch
Press the Odometer Check switch
to display the odometer and trip
meter mileage after the key is
turned off. The fuel gauge will also
operate when this switch is pressed.
For diesel vehicles, the DIC and
some lights will illuminate on the
instrument panel.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer shows how far
the vehicle has been driven since
the trip odometer was last reset.
Press the trip odometer reset stem
next to the odometer to switch
between the odometer and trip
odometer.To reset the trip odometer to zero,
press and hold the trip odometer
reset stem while TRIP A or TRIP B
is displayed. The engine control
switch should be in the ON position.
When the battery is disconnected,
TRIP A and TRIP B will be reset to
zero. The per trip fuel economy is
also reset by the TRIP B reset. See

093.
When you turn the engine control
switch to the ON position, the
odometer/trip odometer shows what
was displayed the last time the
engine control switch was turned to
LOCK or ACC.
To set the odometer to display each
time you turn the engine control
switch to the ON position, turn the
engine control switch to LOCK or
ACC while the odometer is

The system calculates and stores
the distance traveled and fuel
consumption while driving to
encourage the operator to drive the
vehicle economically. Press the DIC
selector once or more to select fuel
economy. Turn the selectorclockwise or counterclockwise to

Indicates the per trip fuel
economy based on the mileage
in the TRIP B.
. Instantaneous Fuel Economy:
Indicates the fuel economy at a
given moment while driving.
How to Reset the Per Trip Fuel
Economy

Radio Reception
Usually, a problem with radio
reception does not mean there is a
problem with your radio - it is just the normal result of conditions
outside the vehicle. For example,
nearby buildings and terrain can
interfere with FM reception. Power
lines or telephone wires can
interfere with AM signals.
And of course, radio signals have a
limited range. The farther you are
from a station, the weaker its signal
will be. In addition, reception
conditions change constantly as
your vehicle moves.
Here are some common reception
problems that probably do not
indicate a problem with your radio.
FM Transmissions
Fading and drifting stations -
Generally, the effective range of FM
is about 40 km (25 miles). Once
outside this range, you may notice
fading and drifting, which increase
with the distance from the radio
transmitter. They are often
accompanied by distortion.
Multi-path - FM signals are
reflective, making it possible for two
signals to reach your antenna at the
same time. If this happens, the
signals will cancel each other out,
causing a momentary flutter or loss
of reception.
Static and fluttering - These occur
when signals are blocked by
buildings, trees, or other large
objects. Increasing the bass level
may reduce static and fluttering.
Station swapping - If the FM signal
you are listening to is interrupted or
weakened, and there is another
strong station nearby on the FM
band, your radio may tune in the
second station until the original
signal can be picked up again.
AM Transmissions
Fading - AM broadcasts are
reflected by the upper atmosphere -
especially at night. These reflected
signals can interfere with those
received directly from the radio
station, causing the radio station to
sound alternately strong and weak.
Station interference - When a
reflected signal and a signal
received directly from a radio station
are very nearly the same frequency,
