DIC Menu Items
Press MENU on the turn signal
lever until the Info menu is
displayed. Use
\scroll through the
menu items. Not all items are
available on every vehicle.

. Fuel Economy
Digital Speedometer
The speedometer shows how fast
the vehicle is moving in either
kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles
per hour (mph). The speedometer
cannot be reset.
Trip A or Trip B, Average Fuel
Economy
Displays the current distance
traveled, in either kilometers (km) or
miles (mi), from the last reset for the
trip odometer. The trip odometer can be reset to zero by pressing and
holding the reset stem in the cluster
while the trip odometer display is
showing.
Also displays the approximate
average liters per 100 kilometers
(L/100 km) or miles per
gallon (mpg). This number is based
on the number of L/100 km (mpg)
recorded since the last time this
menu item was reset. This number
reflects only the approximate
average fuel economy that the
vehicle has right now, and will
change as driving conditions
change. The average fuel economy
can be reset by pressing SET/CLR
while the Average Fuel Economy
display is showing.
Fuel Range
This display shows the approximate
distance the vehicle can be driven
without refueling. The fuel range
estimate is based on an average of
the vehicle’
s fuel economy over
recent driving history and the
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel
tank. Fuel range cannot be reset. Oil Life
This display shows an estimate of
the oil's remaining useful life. If OIL
LIFE 99% REMAINING is displayed,
that means 99% of the current oil
life remains.
When the remaining oil life is low,
the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the display.
The oil should be changed as soon
as possible. See
Engine Oil0192.
In addition to the Engine Oil Life
System monitoring the oil life,
additional maintenance is
recommended in the Maintenance
Schedule in this manual. See
Maintenance Schedule 0263 for
more information.
Remember, the Oil Life display must
be reset after each oil change. It will
not reset itself. Also, be careful not
to reset the Oil Life display
accidentally at any time other than
when the oil has just been changed.
It cannot be reset accurately until
the next oil change. To reset the
Engine Oil Life System, press

SET/CLR while the Remaining Oil
Life display is active. SeeEngine
Oil Life System 0194.
Tire Pressure
The display will show a vehicle with
the approximate pressures of all
four tires. Tire pressure is displayed
in either kilopascal (kPa) or pounds
per square inch (psi). See Tire
Pressure Monitor System 0228 and
Tire Pressure Monitor Operation
0 229 for more information.
Fuel Economy
The center displays the approximate
instantaneous fuel economy as a
number and bar graph. Displayed
above the bar graph is a running
average of fuel economy for the
most recently travelled selected
distance. Displayed below the bar
graph is the best average fuel
economy that has been achieved for
the selected distance. The selected
distance is displayed at the top of
the page as “last xxx mi/km”. Press SET/CLR to select the
distance or reset best value.
Hold SET/CLR to reset the best
average fuel economy. After reset,
the best value displays until the
selected distance has been
travelled. The display provides
information on how current driving
behavior affects the running
average and how well recent driving
compares to the best that has been
achieved for the selected distance.
Compass
The vehicle has a compass display
in the DIC. See
Compass092 for
more information.
Vehicle Messages
Messages displayed on the DIC
indicate the status of the vehicle or
some action that may be needed to
correct a condition. Multiple
messages may appear one after
another.
The messages that do not require
immediate action can be
acknowledged and cleared by
pressing SET/CLR. The messages
that require immediate action cannot
be cleared until that action is
performed.
All messages should be taken
seriously; clearing the message
does not correct the problem.

Vehicle Care 233
Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as soon
as possible, check for proper tire
inflation pressure, and check for
damaged tires or wheels. If the
unusual wear continues after the
rotation, check the wheel
alignment. SeeWhen It Is Time
for New Tires 0233 and
Wheel Replacement 0238.
Use this rotation pattern when
rotating the tires.
Do not include the compact
spare tire in the tire rotation. Adjust the front and rear tires to
the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tire and
Loading Information label after
the tires have been rotated. See
Tire Pressure
0227 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0147.
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor
System. See Tire Pressure
Monitor Operation 0229.
Check that all wheel nuts are
properly tightened. See “Wheel
Nut Torque” underCapacities
and Specifications 0276.
{Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on
the parts to which it is
fastened, can make wheel
nuts become loose after time.
The wheel could come off and
cause a crash. When
changing a wheel, remove any
rust or dirt from places where
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
the wheel attaches to the
vehicle. In an emergency, a
cloth or a paper towel can be
used; however, use a scraper
or wire brush later to remove
all rust or dirt.
Lightly coat the center of the
wheel hub with wheel bearing
grease after a wheel change or
tire rotation to prevent corrosion
or rust build-up. Do not get
grease on the flat wheel
mounting surface or on the
wheel nuts or bolts.
When It Is Time for New
Tires
Factors such as maintenance,
temperatures, driving speeds,
vehicle loading, and road conditions
affect the wear rate of the tires.

Engine Oil Change
When the CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON DIC message displays, have
the engine oil and filter changed
within the next 1 000 km/600 mi.
If driven under the best conditions,
the engine oil life system may not
indicate the need for vehicle service
for up to a year. The engine oil and
filter must be changed at least once a year and the oil life system must
be reset. Your trained dealer
technician can perform this work.
If the engine oil life system is reset
accidentally, service the vehicle
within 5 000 km/3,000 mi since the
last service. Reset the oil life
system when the oil is changed.
See
Engine Oil Life System 0194.
Air Conditioning Desiccant
