The Rear Seat Alert is a system that
reminds the driver to check if any
occupants or luggage have been left
behind on the second/third-row seats.
The Rear Seat Alert determines if there
is the possibility that occupants or
luggage are on a second/third-row
seat based on the opening and closing
history of the rear doors. For this
reason, the system may operate
differently from the actual conditions,
such as it is not activated even if
occupants or luggage are occupying a
second/third-row seat.

Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows approximately
how much fuel is remaining in the tank
when the vehicle power is switched
ON.
When the fuel tank is full, F (Full) is
indicated, and as the level lowers the
needle approaches E (Empty).

NOTE
After refueling , it may require some
time for the indicator to stabilize. In
addition, the indicator may deviate
while driving on a slope or curve
since the fuel moves in the tank.
The direction of the arrow
indicates that the fuel-filler lid is on
the left side of the vehicle.
Dashboard Illumination
When the lights are turned on with the
vehicle power switched ON, the
brightness of the dashboard
illumination is dimmed. However,
when the light sensor detects that the
surrounding area is bright such as
when the lights are turned on in the
daytime, the dashboard illumination
does not dim.
NOTE
When the vehicle power is switched
ON in the early evening or at dusk, the
dashboard illumination is dimmed for
several seconds until the light sensor
detects the brightness of the
surrounding area, however, the
dimming may cancel after the
brightness is detected.
