they were last reset. The tripmeters can be used to
record the distance traveled on a single trip, or to
estimate the distance that can be traveled with a
full tank of gas, etc.
Push the “SELECT” button to switch between the
odometer “ODO” and the tripmeters “TRIP A” and
“TRIP B” in the following order:

5Tire pressure gauge
A low-pressure tire gauge is included as standard
equipment with your vehicle. (See page 8-2.)
When using the tire pressure gauge, make two
measurements and use the second reading as grit
in the gauge or tire valve could have caused the
first reading to be incorrect.
Tire wear
If the tire is damaged or the tire tread depth de-
creases to 3 mm (0.12 in) or less, replace the tire. Tire information
