3-2. Combination Meter and Display
The fuel gauge shows approximately how much fuel is remaining in
the tank when the ignition is sw itched ON. We recommend keeping
the tank over 1/4 full.
Full
1/4 Full
Empty
If the low fuel warning light illuminates or the fuel level is very low,
refuel as soon as possible.
If inconsistency in engine performance or stalling occurs due to low
fuel level conditions, refuel the vehicle as soon as possible a nd add at
least 10 L (2.7 US gal, 2 .2 Imp gal) of fuel.
Refer to Warning/Indi cator Lights on P. 173.
●After refueling, it may require some time for the indicator to stabilize. In addi-
tion, the indicator may deviate while driving on a slope or cur ve since the
fuel moves in the tank.
● The display indicating a quarter or less remaining fuel has mor e segments
to show the remaining fuel level in greater detail.
● The direction of the arrow ( ) indicates that the fuel-filler lid is on the left
side of the vehicle.

■Current fuel economy mode
Current fuel economy will be calculated and displayed every 2 sec-
onds.
When you’ve slowed to about 3 mph (5 km/h), - - - mpg (- - - L/ 100
km) will be displayed.
■Average vehicle speed mode
Average vehicle speed will be cal culated and displayed every 10
seconds.
To clear the data being displayed, press the INFO button for mo re
than 1.5 seconds.
After pressing the IN FO button, - - - mph (- - - km/h) will be dis-
played for about 1 minute before the vehicle speed is recalculated
and displayed.
■ Distance-to-empty mode
●Even though the distance-to-empty display may indicate a suffic ient amount
of remaining driving distance before refueling is required, refuel as soon as
possible if the fuel level is very low or the low fuel warning light illuminates.
● The display may not change unless you add more than approximate ly 2.3
gal. (9 L, 1.9 Imp.gal.) of fuel.
● The distance-to-empty is the approximate remaining distance the vehicle
can be driven until all the graduation marks in the fuel gauge (indicating the
remaining fuel supply) disappear.
● If there is no past fuel economy information such as after firs t purchasing
your vehicle or the information is deleted when the battery cab les are dis-
connected, the actual distance-to empty/range may differ from t he amount
indicated.
■ Average fuel economy mode
If TRIP A is reset using the trip meter when the function which synchronizes
(resets) the fuel economy monitor and the trip meter (TRIP A) i s on, the dis-
played past data is reset.
This mode displays the current fuel economy
by calculating the amount of fuel consumption
and the distance traveled.
This mode displays the average vehicle speed
by calculating the distance and the time trav-
eled since connecting the battery or resetting
the data.

When Driving
■Passing
For extra power when passing another vehicle or climbing steep
grades, depress the accelerator fully. The transaxle will shift to a
lower gear, depending on vehicle speed.
Some models:
The accelerator pedal may initially feel heavy as it is being d epressed,
then feel lighter as it is depressed further. This change in pe dal force
aids the engine control system in determining how much the acce lerator
pedal has been depressed for performing kickdown, and functions to
control whether or not kickdown should be performed.
■
Climbing steep gra des from a stop
To climb a steep grade from a stopped position: Depress the brake pedal.
Shift to D or M1, depending on the load weight and grade steep-
ness.
Release the brake pedal wh ile gradually accelerating.
■Descending steep grades
When descending a steep grade, shift to lower gears, depending on
load weight and grade steepnes s. Descend slowly, using the
brakes only occasionally to p revent them from overheating.
Driving Tips
WARNING
■Do not let the vehicle move in a direction opposite to the direction
selected by the selector lever
Do not let the vehicle move backward with the selector lever in a forward
position, or do not let the vehicle move forward with the selec tor lever in the
reverse position. Otherwise, the engine may stop, causing the loss of the
power brake and power steering f unctions, and make it difficult to control
the vehicle which could result in an accident.
