the following information.

1. Instantaneous fuel consumption

(“INST ECON”)

2. Average fuel consumption after re-

fueling

(“AVG ECON”)

1. Instantaneous fuel consumption

The instantaneous fuel consumption is

calculated and displayed based on driv-

ing distance and fuel consumption for

2 seconds with the engine running.

Average fuel consumption after refuel-

ing is calculated and displayed based

on total driving distance and total fuel

consumption with the engine running.

2. Average fuel consumption after refuel-

ing

3. Average vehicle speed

4. Driving range

The displayed value is updated every 2

seconds.

The displayed value is updated every 10

seconds.

5. Driving time

Note that an accurate figure may not be

shown in the following cases.

Every time you push the “DISPLAY” but-

ton, the display toggles through this infor-

mation.

To reset the calculations, push the

“RESET/ADJ” button.

D When the vehicle is stopped with the

engine running, the display will indicate

the extremely high fuel consumption.

The calculation is reset when the ignition

switch is turned off.

The displayed values in the cruise infor-

mation display indicate general driving

conditions. Accuracy varies with driving

habits and road conditions.

D When the vehicle is driving down a

long slope, applying the engine brake,

the display will indicate the extremely

low fuel consumption.

3. Average vehicle speed

(“AVG SPEED”)

Average vehicle speed is calculated and

displayed based on total driving dis-

tance and total driving time with the

engine running.

disconnected, the display will automatically

be set to instantaneous fuel consumption.

The calculation is reset when the ignition

switch is turned off.

4. Driving range

(“FUEL RANGE”)

To reset the calculations, push the

“RESET/ADJ” button.

The distance the vehicle can travel with

the remaining fuel is calculated and

displayed based on the quantity of re-

maining fuel and past fuel consumption.

The calculation is reset when the ignition

switch is turned off.

The displayed value is updated every time

when the fuel equivalent for 1 km is con-

sumed.

Every time you refuel the vehicle, the

driving range calculation is automatically

reset.

The actual driving range varies with driv-

ing habits and road conditions. If fuel con-

sumption is good, the driving range will be

longer. If fuel consumption is poor, the

driving range will be shorter.

The compass indicates the direction

that the vehicle is heading. In the

above case, it shows that the vehicle is

heading south.
