• For “L/100km” or “km/L” setting, you can

change the units that instantaneous fuel

consumption is displayed in. Refer to

“Average fuel consumption” in this sec-

tion.

(For “L/100km” or “km/L” setting)

Driving range

If you selected driving range the last time

you drove the vehicle, the display indicates

“---” for a few seconds and then indicates

the current driving range when the ignition

switch is turned to “ON” position.

Average fuel consumption

EXAMPLE

The driving range shown in the display is

the approximate distance you can drive

until the fuel gauge indicates “E”, based on

current driving conditions.

If you selected average fuel consumption

the last time you drove the vehicle, the dis-

play shows the last value of average fuel

consumption from previous driving when

the ignition switch is turned to “ON” posi-

tion. Unless you reset the value of average

fuel consumption, the display indicates the

value of average fuel consumption which

includes average fuel consumption during

previous driving.

(Initial

setting)

When the low fuel warning light comes on,

the display “---” will appear.

If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill

the fuel tank immediately regardless of the

value of driving range shown in the display.

As the driving range after refueling is cal-

culated based on the most recent driving

condition, the value is different each time

you refuel.

To reset the average fuel consumption,

push and hold the indicator selector knob

(2) for a while when the display shows the

average fuel consumption.

terminal to the lead-acid battery, the unit

of the average fuel consumption will be

reinitialized. Change the unit again to

your preference.

NOTE:

• If you refuel when the ignition switch is in

“ON” position, the driving range may not

indicate the correct value.

When you reset the indication or reconnect

the negative (–) terminal to the lead-acid

battery, the value of average fuel con-

sumption will be shown after driving for a

while.

• When you reconnect the negative (–)

terminal to the lead-acid battery, the

value of driving range will be shown after

driving for a while.
