NOTE:• Indications will change when you pushand release a knob.• The display shows estimated values.Indications may not be the same as actual values.Trip meter The trip meter can be used to measure the distance traveled on short trips or between fuel stops.You can use the trip meter A or trip meter B independently.
To reset the trip meter to zero, push and hold the trip meter selector knob (1) for a while when the display shows the tripmeter.
NOTE: The indicated maximum value of the trip meter is 9999.9. When you run past the
maximum value, the indicated value willreturn to 0.0.
Odometer The odometer records the total distance the vehicle has been driven.
Instantaneous Fuel ConsumptionThe display shows the value of instanta- neous fuel consumption only when the vehi- cle is moving.
NOTE:• The display does not show the valueunless the vehicle is moving.• The indicated maximum value of instanta-neous fuel consumption is 30. No more than 30 will be indicated on the displayeven if the actual instantaneous fuel con-sumption is higher.• The indication on the display may bedelayed if fuel consumption is greatly affected by driving conditions.• The display shows estimated values. Indi-cations may not be the same as actual values.• You can change the units that instanta-neous fuel consumption is displayed in.Refer to “Average fuel consumption” in this section.
Average fuel consumptionIf you selected average fuel consumptionthe last time you drove the vehicle, the dis- play shows the last value of average fuelconsumption from previous driving when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”position. Unless you reset the value of aver- age fuel consumption, the display indicates the value of average fuel consumption which includes average fuel consumptionduring previous driving.
To reset the average fuel consumption to zero, push and hold the indicator selector knob (2) for a while when the display shows the average fuel consumption.
NOTE: When you reset the indication or reconnectthe negative (–) terminal to the battery, the value of average fuel consumption will be shown after driving for a while.
To change the unit of average fuel con- sumption, while pushing and holding thetrip meter selector knob (1), turn the indi- cator selector knob (2).

NOTE:• When you change the units that averagefuel consumption is displayed in, the instantaneous fuel consumption units will be changed automatically.• When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-minal to the battery, the unit of the aver-age fuel consumption will be reinitialized.Change the unit again to your preference.
Driving rangeIf you selected driving range the last timeyou drove the vehicle, the display indicates“---” for a few seconds and then indicatesthe current driving range when the ignitionswitch is turned to the “ON” position. The driving range shown in the display is the approximate distance you can drive untilthe fuel gauge indicates “E”, based on cur-rent driving conditions.
When the low fuel warning light comes on, the display “---” will appear.
If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill thefuel tank immediately regardless of the valueof driving range shown in the display.
As the driving range after refueling is calcu-lated based on the most recent driving con-dition, the value is different each time you refuel.
NOTE: • If you refuel when the ignition switch is inthe “ON” position, the driving range may not indicate the correct value.• When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-minal to the battery, the value of drivingrange will be shown after driving for awhile.

When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position, the display (D) indicates the gearposition. For details on how to use the transaxle, refer to “Using the Transaxle” in the“OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE” section.
Thermometer (if equipped)When the ignition switch is in the “ON”position, the display (E) shows the ther-mometer. The thermometer indicates the outside temperature.
76MH0A042
If the outside temperature nears freezing, the mark (g) will appear on the display.
NOTE:• The outside temperature indication is notthe actual outside temperature when driv- ing at low speed, or when stopped.• If there is something wrong with the ther-mometer, or just after the ignition switchis turned to the “ON” position, the display may not indicate the outside temperature.
When the display (C) shows the driving range, you can change the unit of tempera-ture. To change the unit of temperature, while pushing and holding the trip meter selectorknob (1), turn the indicator selector knob (2).
