CAUTION
If the high engine coolant temperature
warning light (red) turns on, there is a
possibility of overheating. Park the vehicle
in a safe place immediately and take
appropriate measures. If the vehicle
continues to be driven, it could cause
damage to the engine.
Refer to Overheating on page 7-37.
NOTE
•The temperature unit (Centigrade/
Fahrenheit) of the engine coolant gauge
display changes in conjunction with the
temperature unit of the outside
temperature display.
Refer to Personalisation Features on
page 9-12.
•During normal driving, the engine
coolant temperature stabilizes at 100 °C
(210 °F) or less, and the gauge indicates
a range lower than 100 °C (210 °F).
▼Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows approximately how
much fuel is remaining in the tank when
the ignition is switched ON. We
recommend keeping the tank over 1/4 full.
Full
1/4 Full
Empty
If the fuel level is low, () and () turn an
amber colour. Refuel as soon as possible.
Refer to Taking Action on page 7-53 .
NOTE
•After refuelling, it may require some
time for the indicato r to stabilize. In
addition, the indicator may deviate
while driving on a slope or curve since
the fuel moves in the tank.
•The display indicating a quarter or less
remaining fuel has more segments to
show the remaining fu el level in greater
detail.
•The direction of the arrow () indicates
that the fuel-filler flap is on the left side
of the vehicle.

If inconsistency in engine performance or
stalling occurs due to low fuel level
conditions, refuel the vehicle as soon as
possible and add at least 10 L (2.7 US gal,
2.2 Imp gal) of fuel.
▼ Outside Temperature Display
When the ignition is switched ON, the
outside temperatur
e is displayed.
NOTE
•Under the following conditions, the
outside temperature display may differ
from the actual outside temperature
depending on the surroundings and
vehicle conditions:
•Significantly cold or hot temperatures.
•Sudden changes in outside
temperature.
•The vehicle is parked.
•The vehicle is driven at low speeds.
Changing the Temperature Unit of the
Outside Temperature Display (Vehicles
with Type B audio)
The outside temperature unit can be
switched between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
Settings can be changed by operating the
centre display screen.
Refer to Personalisation Features on page
9-12.
NOTE
When the temperature unit indicated in the
outside temperature display is changed,
the temperature unit indicated in the
engine coolant gauge display changes in
conjunction with it.
Outside Temperature Warning*
When the outside temperature is low, the
indication flashes and a beep sound is
heard to warn the driv er of the possibility
of icy roads.
If the outside temperature is lower than
about 4 °C (39 °F), the outside
temperature display and the
mark
flashes for about ten seconds and a beep
sound is heard once.
NOTE
If the outside temperature is lower
than -20 °C (-4 °F), the beep sound does
not operate. However, the
mark
illuminates.
▼ Distance-to-empty
This displays the approximate distance
you can travel on the remaining fuel based
on the fuel economy.
The distance-to-empty will be calculated
and displayed every second.
NOTE
•Even though the distance-to-empty
display may indicate a sufficient amount
of remaining driving distance before
refuelling is required, refuel as soon as
possible if the fuel level is very low or
the low fuel warning light illuminates.
•The display will not change unless you
add more than approximately 9 L (2.3
US gal, 1.9 Imp gal) of fuel.
