Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
Displays the engine coolant temperature. The blue range of the gauge indicates that the engine coolant temperature is low, and the red range of the gauge indicates that the engine coolant temperature is high and overheating.
If the engine coolant temperature gauge needle is in the red range, there is the possibility of overheating. Drive slowly to reduce engine load.

Dashboard Illumination
(Without auto-light control)
When the lights are turned on with the vehicle power switched ON, the brightness of the dashboard illumination is dimmed.
(With auto-light control)
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.
(With auto-light control)
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.
Maximum Driving Distance Display
The maximum driving distance is calculated and displayed based on the current remaining fuel tank level and the fuel economy. When the maximum driving distance is 50 km (30 miles) or farther, the maximum driving distance indication decreases in 10 km (10 mile) increments, and when the maximum driving distance is shorter than 50 km (30 miles), it decreases in 1 km (1 mile) increments.
The maximum driving distance is just an approximate numerical value and differs from the actual driving distance. Drive the vehicle while checking the fuel gauge.
How to Use the Average Fuel Economy Display
To reset the displayed average fuel economy data, press the INFO switch for 2 seconds or longer.
After resetting the data, - - - L/100 km (- - - mpg) is displayed until the average fuel economy is recalculated and displayed.
