Current G-force value (analyzed
value of front/rear and left/right
G-forces)
Record of the maximum G-forces
This display is intended for use as a
guideline. Depending on factors such
as the road surface condition, tem-
perature and vehicle speed, the display
may not show the actual condition of
the vehicle.
 Resetting the record of maximum
G-forces
Press and hold to reset the record.
Peak hold function
If lateral G-forces of 0.5 G or greater are
generated, the G-forc e value display will
turn amber and be held for 2 seconds.

■Tire pressure
 P.260
■Vehicle sway warning*
Detects the sway of the vehicle within a

decrease in the driver’s attention level, and displays the decrease in attention
using a bar display.
The shorter the bar length, the more

The units of measure used can be
changed while driving.
Unlike the units sett ing performed on ,
the units setting performed on can be
changed while driving.
*: For F SPORT models, this item is not available when the main meter is in the
right-side position.
■Blank (No items)
Displays no drive information contents.
■Tire pressure
●It may take a few minutes to display the
tire inflation pressu re after the engine
switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode.
It may also take a few minutes to display
the tire inflation pressure after inflation
pressure has b een adjusted.
●“---” may be displayed if the tire position
information cannot be determined due to
unfavorable radio wave conditions.
●Tire inflation pressure changes with tem-
perature. The displaye d values may also
be different from the values measured

• The vehicle is wobbling.
• The vehicle is being driven at extremely high speeds.
• When driving on a hill
• If the radar sensor or camera sensor is misaligned
●In some situations such as the following,
sufficient braking force may not be
obtained, preventing the system from
performing properly:
• If the braking functions cannot operate to
their full extent, such as when the brake
parts are extremely cold, extremely hot,
or wet
• If the vehicle is not properly maintained (brakes or tires are excessively worn,
improper tire inflation pressure, etc.)
• When the vehicle is being driven on a gravel road or other slippery surface
●Some pedestrians such as the following
may not be detected by the radar sensor
and camera sensor, preventing the sys-
tem from operating properly:
• Pedestrians shorter than approximately 3.2 ft. (1 m) or tall er than approximately
6.5 ft. (2 m)
• Pedestrians wearing oversized clothing (a rain coat, long skir t, etc.), making their
