■Outside temperature display
●In the following situations, the correct 
outside temperature may not be dis-

than normal to change:
• When stopped, or driving at low speeds  (less than 12 mph [20 km/h])
• When the outside temperature has  changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit of 
a garage, tunnel, etc.)
●When “--” or “E” is displayed, the system

WARNING
■The information display at low tem-
peratures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm 
up before using the liquid crystal infor-
mation display. At extremely low tem-
peratures, the information display 
monitor may respond slowly, and display 
changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the 
driver’s shifting and  the new gear number 
appearing on the display. This lag could 
cause the driver to downshift again, 
causing rapid and excessive engine brak-
ing and possibly an accident resulting in 
death or injury.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the engine and 
its components
●Do not let the indicator of the tachom-
eter 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, imme-
diately stop the vehicle in a safe place, 
and check the engine after it has 
cooled completely. ( P.386)

■Rev indicator
When the engine speed reaches a set

tachometer.
The indicators will be displayed in amber 
when the engine speed reaches a set

reaches the red zone.
The engine speed at which the rev indica-
tor will begin to be displayed can be set on 
 of the multi-information display.

exceeds 5000 rpm, an afterimage of 
the tachometer will be displayed at the 
highest engine speed for approxi-
mately 1 second.

Driving
4-6.Driving tips
Use fluids that are appropriate to 
the prevailing outside temperatures.
• Engine oil
• Engine coolant
• Washer fluid
Have a service technician inspect 
the condition of the battery.
 Vehicles without run-flat tires: Have 
the vehicle fitted with four snow tires 
or purchase a set of tire chains for 
the front tires.
Ensure that all tires are the same size and 
brand, and that chains match the size of the 
tires.
Vehicles with run-flat tires: It is rec-
ommended that the vehicle is fitted 
with four snow run-flat tires or pur-
chase a set of tire chains for the front 
tires.
Ensure that all tires are the same size and 
brand, and that chains match the size of the 
tires.
Winter driving tips
Carry out the necessary prepara-
tions and inspections before driving 
the vehicle in winter. Always drive 
the vehicle in a manner appropriate 
to the prevailing weather condi-
tions.
Preparation for winter
WARNING
■Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions to 
reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in a loss of 
vehicle control and cause death or seri-
ous injury.
●Use tires of the specified size.
●Maintain the recommended level of air 
pressure.
●Do not drive in excess of 75 mph (120 
km/h), regardless of the type of snow 
tires being used.
●Use snow tires on all, not just some 
wheels.
■Driving with tire chains
Observe the following precautions to 
reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in the vehicle 
being unable to be driven safely, and may 
cause death or serious injury.
●Do not drive in excess of the speed 
limit specified for the tire chains being 
used, or 30 mph (50 km/h), which-
ever is lower.
●Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces 
or over potholes.
●Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt 
steering, sudden br aking and shifting 
operations that cause sudden engine 
braking.
●Slow down sufficiently before entering 
a curve to ensure that vehicle control is 
maintained.
●Do not use LTA (Lane Tracing Assist).

WARNING
The engine compartment contains many 
mechanisms and fluids that may move 
suddenly, become hot, or become elec-
trically energized. To avoid death or seri-
ous injury, observe the following 
precautions.
■When working on the engine com-
partment
●Keep hands, clothi ng and tools away 
from the moving fan and engine drive 
belt.
●Be careful not to touch the engine, 
radiator, exhaust manifold, etc. right 
after driving as they may be hot. Oil 
and other fluids may also be hot.
●Do not leave anything that may burn 
easily, such as paper and rags, in the 
engine compartment.
●Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose 
an open flame to fuel or the battery. 
Fuel and battery fumes are flammable.
●Be extremely cautions when working 
on the battery. It contains poisonous 
and corrosive sulfuric acid.
ItemsParts and tools■When working near the electric cool-
ing fan or radiator grille
Be sure the engine switch is OFF.
With the engine switch in ON, the elec-
tric cooling fan may automatically start to 
run if the air conditioning is on and/or the 
coolant temperature is high. ( P.324)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or 
falling material, fluid spray, etc. from get-
ting in your eyes.
NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter 
removed may cause excessive engine 
wear due to dirt in the air.
