■The meters and display illuminate when
The power switch is in ON mode.
■Adjusting the instrument cluster brightness (P. 102)
●The brightness levels that can be selected differ depending on whether the
tail lights are on and surrounding brightness levels, as shown in the table
below.
*: 22 levels of the brightness are displayed on the setting screen. However,
the brightness setting will be the brightest when other than 1st level (the
darkest) is selected. If other than 1st or 22nd level is selected, when the
tail lights are turned on in a dark place, the instrument cluster brightness
setting will be the selected level.
●If the taillights are illuminated in a dark environment, the instrument cluster
light dims. However, when the brightness of the instrument cluster is set to
minimum or maximum (1st or 22nd level of the instrument cluster bright-
ness), even if the taillights are illuminated, the instrument cluster light will
not dim.
■When disconnecting and reconnecting 12-volt battery terminals
The settings of the clock will be reset.
■Calendar settings
●Until the calendar settings are set, the check screen is displayed every time
the power switch is turned to ON mode.
●After the calendar information is set, it can be changed in the “Meter Custo-
mize” settings. (P. 156)

If calendar recording is interrupted due to
replacement of the 12-volt battery or 12-
volt battery discharge, etc., when the
power switch is turned to ON mode after
maintenance, the calendar settings check

Display contentsDetail
Hybrid System Indicator
A convenient Hybrid System Indicator is displayed.
Refer to P. 132 for details on how to read the Hybrid
System Indicator.
Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption during driving is dis-
played.
• The mark indicates the value displayed in the
average fuel consumption display (P. 121).
Switching the average fuel consumption display
also changes the position of the mark.
• When the average fuel consumption is reset, the
position of the mark is reset to 0.
Hybrid battery (traction battery) status
The same contents as the hybrid battery (traction
battery) status on the energy monitor are displayed.
(P. 131)

◆Energy monitor
The energy monitor can be used to check the vehicle drive status,
hybrid system operation status and energy regeneration status.
When energy is flowing, an arrow appears and a bright point of light
moves to show the direction of the flow of energy. When energy is
not flowing, the bright point of light is not displayed.

Electric motor
(traction motor)
Hybrid battery

Tire
Bright point of light showing
the flow of energy
As an example, all arrows are shown in the illustration, but the actual con-
tents of the display will differ.
(Display example)
●When the hybrid battery (traction battery) is being charged, the
bright point of light moves towards .
●During driving, the bright point of light moves from or (or
both depending on the situation) towards .
*
●During driving, the image of the tires rotates.
*: The display may differ depending on the driving status.

■Hybrid battery (traction battery) status
●The display changes in 8 levels according to the remaining charge amount
of the hybrid battery (traction battery).
●The hybrid battery (traction battery) status is also displayed on the following
screen, but the contents of the display are the same.
• Sub-screen of the main display (P. 125)
• Hybrid System Indicator (P. 132)
• Head-up display (if equipped) (P. 161)
●The charge amount of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is automatically
controlled by the hybrid system. For this reason, even if electricity is recov-
ered via the regenerative braking, or electricity is generated via the gasoline
engine, the displayed hybrid battery (traction battery) charge amount may
not reach the highest level (level 8). However, this does not indicate a mal-
function.
■Remaining charge amount warning of hybrid battery (traction battery)
●The buzzer sounds intermittently when the hybrid battery (traction battery)
remains without charging while the shift position is in N, or the remaining
charge amount drops below a certain level.
If the remaining charge amount drops further, the buzzer sounds continu-
ously.
●When a warning message is shown on the multi-information display and the
buzzer sounds, follow the instructions displayed on the screen to perform
troubleshooting.Low

*3: The EV indicator function can be turned off in the “Meter Customize”
settings. (P. 156)

“ECO Accelerator Guidance”
A blue zone is displayed in the
Eco area which can be used as
a reference operation range for
using the accelerator pedal
according to driving conditions
such as starting off and cruis-
ing.
The “ECO Accelerator Guid-
ance” display changes accord-
ing to the driving status, such as
when starting off or cruising.
It is easier to drive in an Eco-friendly manner by driving according to the
display showing the accelerator pedal operations and staying within the
“ECO Accelerator Guidance” range. (P. 222)
The “ECO Accelerator Guidance” function can be turned off in the
“Meter Customize” settings. (P. 156)

WARNING
■Cautions while setting up the display
As the hybrid system needs to be operating during setting up the display,
ensure that the vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a
closed area such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon
monoxide (CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or
a serious health hazard.
NOTICE
■ While setting up the display
To prevent 12-volt battery discharge, ens ure that the hybrid system is oper-
ating while setting up the display features.

■Enabling/disabling of the head-up display
When the head-up display is turned off with the “HUD” switch, it is not dis-
played until the “HUD” switch is used to turn the head-up display on again.
(Operation of the head-up display is not linked with the power switch.)
■ Display brightness
● The brightness of the head-up display is automatically adjusted according to
the operation status of the headlights (on/off) and the brightness of the sur-
roundings.
● When the brightness of the head-up display is adjusted to a certain level or
higher, the display automatically dims when the vehicle is stopped. Once the
vehicle starts off and the vehicle speed reaches approximately 5 km/h
(3.1 mph) or more, the display automatically returns to its previous bright-
ness.
■ Vehicle speed display
In extremely cold environments, the display of the speedometer and the vehi-
cle speed of the head-up display may slightly differ.
■ Head-up display
The head-up display may seem dark and hard to see when viewed through
sunglasses, especially polarized sunglasses.
■ When the 12-volt battery is disconnected
The customize settings of the head-up display will be reset.
WARNING
■ Before using the head-up display
● Check that the position and brightness of the head-up display image does
not interfere with safe driving. Incorrect adjustment of the image’s position
or brightness may obstruct the driver’s view and lead to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.
● Do not continuously look at the head-up display while driving as you may
fail to see pedestrians, objects on the road, etc. ahead of the vehicle.
