OPERATION OF INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS - Multi-information display -> Outside temperature display for Your Toyota Prius 4 Door First Generation (1997-2003)

Outside temperature display  
Depending on the position of the head-  
light switch, the screen changes to the  
day mode or night mode.  
The outside temperature is shown rang-  
ing from −30_C (−22_F) up to 50_C  
(122_F) at the upper right of the energy  
consumption or energy monitor screen.  
To display the screen in the day mode  
even with the headlight switch on, touch  
“DAY MODE” on the adjustment screen for  
brightness and contrast control.  
If the warning light symbol is shown in  
that position, the outside temperature is  
not displayed until the cause of the sys-  
tem failure is eliminated.  
However, if the switching km/h MPH but-  
ton is on, mode switching cannot be done.  
It remains in the day mode. In this case,  
“DAY MODE” is not shown on the screen.  
If the screen is set in the day mode with  
the headlight switch turned to on, this  
condition is memorized in the system even  
with the hybrid system turned off.
