■The meters and display illuminate when
The power switch is in ON mode.
■Instrument panel brightness adjustment
●Meters:
The brightness level of the meters when the surroundings are bright (day mode)
and dark (night mode) can be adjusted individually. However, when in day mode,
adjusting the brightness level will also change the brightness level of night mode.
●Clock, air conditioning temperature display and switch lights:
The brightness level of the clock, air conditioning temperature display and switch
lights are linked with the brightness level of meter night mode.
■Light dimmer control (Changing to night mode)
The brightness level of the meter, clock and air conditioning temperature display
lights will change to night mode only wh en the surroundings are dark and the tail
lights are on.
■Automatic adjustment of the brightness level of the meters
The brightness level of the meters will be adjusted automatically according to the
brightness of the surroundings detected by the light sensor. However, the brightness
level of the meters will not be adjusted automatically in the following conditions.
●Day mode: When the brightness of the meter is adjusted to the brightest manually

■Hybrid System Indicator
●Hybrid System Indicator is displayed when the driving mode is other than the sport
mode.
●By keeping the indicator needle within Eco area, more Eco-friendly driving can be
achieved.
●Charge area indicates regeneration* status. Regenerated energy will be used to
charge the battery.
*: When used in this manual, “regeneration” refers to the conversion of energy cre-
ated by the movement of the vehicle into electrical energy.
■ECO lamp and SPORT lamp
●When all of the following conditions are satisfied and Eco-friendly driving is being
performed, ECO lamp (blue) will illuminate. (ECO lamp will become brighter the
more Eco-friendly your driving is. Also, while the vehicle is stopped or the acceler-
ation exceeds Zone of Eco driving, ECO lamp turns off. ( P. 119) However, when
Eco drive mode is selected, while the vehicle is stopped or the acceleration
exceeds Zone of Eco driving, ECO lamp does not turn off.):
• Driving with the shift lever in D.
• Vehicles with paddle shift switches: Paddle shift switch is not operated.
• Normal mode, comfort mode or Eco drive mode is selected, and EV drive
mode and snow mode is not in use.
• The vehicle speed is approximately 130 km/h (80 mph) or below.
●When sport mode is selected, SPORT lamp (red) will illuminate.

■Tachometer
Hybrid System Indicator switches to the tachometer when driving mode is in sport
mode.
■Engine speed
On hybrid vehicles, engine speed is precisely controlled in order to help improve
fuel efficiency and reduce exhaust emissions etc.
There are times when the engine speed that is displayed may differ even when vehi-
cle operation and driving conditions are the same.
■Outside temperature display
In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be displayed, or
the display may take longer than normal to change.
●When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 20 km/h [12 mph])
●When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit of a
garage, tunnel, etc.)
■Customization
Settings (e.g. on/off operation of ECO lamp) can be changed.
(Customizable features P. 636)
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the engine and its components
●Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red zone, which indi-
cates the maximum engine speed.
●The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is in the
red zone (H). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and check
the engine after it has cooled completely. ( P. 611)
