G-force display ●
The G-force values may not be zero even when the vehicle is parked, such as when it is
parked on an incline. ●
The steering amount, accelerator pedal input, and brake fluid pressure displays are dis-
abled until the engine has warmed up (the variable red zone of the tachometer has
retracted to 7300 rpm).
After the engine has warmed up, these displays will be enabled. ●
Depending on the vehicle usage conditions, the brake fluid pressure display may not
reach its maximum reading even though the brake pedal is fully depressed. ●
If a battery terminal is disconnected and reconnected, the steering amount display may

tion pressure after inflation pressure has been adjusted.●
“---” may be displayed if the tire position information cannot be determined due to
unfavorable radio wave conditions. ●
Tire inflation pressure changes with temperat ure. The displayed values may also be dif-
ferent from the values measured using a tire pressure gauge. ■
When disconnecting and reco nnecting battery terminals
The following information data will be reset: ●
Drive information ●
Lap timer: Measured lap times, history ●
G-force: Record of the maximum G-forces■
Using the lap timer
If the engine is stopped while a lap is being timed, the lap timer will stop and the lap time
up to that point will be recorded. ■
