(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.

Brightening the dashboard illumination

Dimming the dashboard illumination

If you press the - switch again while the dashboard illumination is at maximum dimness, a sound is activated to notify you that the dimmer setting is at maximum dimness.

Function for canceling illumination dimmer

The illumination dimmer can be canceled by pressing the + switch while the instrument cluster is at maximum dimness and while the vehicle power is switched ON. If you press the + switch again while the illumination dimmer is canceled, a sound is activated to notify you that it is canceled. If the instrument cluster's visibility is reduced due to glare from surrounding brightness, cancel the illumination dimmer.

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.

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.

This displays the current fuel economy by calculating the amount of fuel consumption and the distance traveled.
