(g) Total idling fuel saved (if equipped)
(h) Energy flow indicator (if equipped) (i) No indication
To switch the display indication, push the
information switch (2) quickly.
NOTE:
The value of fuel consumption, driving
range, average speed and total idling fuel
saved shown on the display are affected
by the following conditions;
• road condition
• surrounding traffic condition
• driving condition
• vehicle condition
• a malfunction which causes the malfunc- tion indicator light to come on or blink Instantaneous fuel consumption
The display shows instantaneous fuel con-
sumption with a bar graph only when the
vehicle is moving.
NOTE:
• The display does not show the bar graph
unless the vehicle is moving.
• Depending on the vehicle’s specification,
the fuel consumption units of initial set-
ting are indicated as L/100km, km/L,
MPG (UK) or MPG (US).
• The indicated maximum value of instan- taneous fuel consumption is one of the
followings. No more than the maximum
value will be indicated on the display
even if the actual instantaneous fuel
consumption is higher.
– For L/100km setting: 30
– For km/L setting: 50
– For MPG (UK) setting: 80
– For MPG (US) setting: 60
• The indication on the display may be
delayed if fuel consumption is greatly
affected by driving conditions.
• The display shows estimated values.
Indications may not be the same as
actual values. Average fuel consumption
If you selected average fuel consumption
the last time you drove
the vehicle, the dis-
play shows the last value of average fuel
consumption from previous driving when
the ignition switch is turned to “ON” posi-
tion or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to ON. Unless
you reset the value of average fuel con-
sumption, the display indicates the value of
average fuel consumption based on the
average fuel consumption during previous
driving.
NOTE:
When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-
minal to the lead-acid battery, the value of
average fuel consumption will be shown
after driving for a period of time.
You can select when the value of average
fuel consumption is reset from among the
following three methods;
• Reset after refuel: the value of average fuel consumption will be reset automati-
cally by refueling.
• Reset with trip meter A: the value of average fuel consumption will be reset
automatically by resetting trip meter A.
• Reset manually: the value of average fuel consumption will be reset by push-
ing and holding the information switch
(2) when the display indicates the aver-
age fuel consumption.

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 trip
meter.
NOTE:
The indicated maximum value of the trip
meter is 9999.9. When you run past the
maximum value, the indicated value will
return to 0.0.
Odometer
The odometer records the total distance
the vehicle has been driven. Instantaneous fuel consumption
The display shows the value of instanta-
neous fuel consumption only when the
vehicle is moving.
NOTE:
• The display does not show the value
unless the vehicle is moving.
• Depending on the vehicle’s specification,
the fuel consumption units of initial set-
ting are indicated as L/100km, km/L or
MPG.
• The indicated maximum value of instan- taneous fuel consumption is one of the
followings. No more than the maximum
value will be indicated on the display
even if the actual instantaneous fuel
consumption is higher.
– For L/100km setting: 30
– For km/L setting: 50
– For MPG setting: 99.9
• The indication on the display may be delayed if fuel consumption is greatly
affected by driving conditions.
• The display shows estimated values. Indications may not be the same as
actual values.
• For “L/100km” or “km/L” setting, you can change the units that instantaneous fuel
consumption is displayed in. Refer to
“Average fuel consumption” in this sec-
tion. Average fuel consumption
If you selected average fuel consumption
the last time you drove
the vehicle, the dis-
play shows the last value of average fuel
consumption from previous driving when
the ignition switch is turned to “ON” posi-
tion. Unless you reset the value of average
fuel consumption, the display indicates the
value of average fuel consumption which
includes average fuel consumption during
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 reconnect
the negative (–) terminal to the lead-acid
battery, the value of average fuel con-
sumption will be shown after driving for a
while.
NOTICE
Keep track of your odometer reading
and check the maintenance sched-
ule regularly for required services.
Increased wear or damage to certain
parts can result from failure to per-
form required services at the proper
mileage intervals.
