 (Cruising range)
Displays  the  estimated  maximum  distance  that  can  be  driven  with
the quantity of fuel remaining. • This distance is computed base d on your average fuel consump-
tion. As a result, the actual di stance that can be driven may differ
from that displayed.
• When  only  a  small  amount  of  fuel  is  added  to  the  tank,  the  dis -
play may not be updated. 
When  refueling,  turn  the  power  swi tch  off.  If  the  vehicle  is  refu-
eled without turning the power switch off, the display may not  be

The power switch is in ON mode.
■ Eco score
●As the accelerator pedal is not depressed, the driven distance  using cruise
control (if equipped) is not included in the eco score.
● As the eco score evaluation differs according to driving conditions and envi-
ronmental factors, in some cases it may not be linked to fuel c onsumption. 
■ Eco savings
●Fuel cost and savings should be used as a guide only.
● Depending on refueling methods, driving conditions and environm ental fac-
tors, the actual and displayed fuel costs may differ.
● In  some  cases,  fuel  cost  and  savings  may  not  be  linked  to  the  eco  score
evaluation.
■ When disconnecting and reconnecting 12-volt battery terminals
The following information data will be reset:
●Clock
● Past record (aside from the top 3 results)
