Instrument Cluster
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows approximately how much fuel is remaining in the tank when the vehicle power is switched ON.
When the fuel tank is full, F (Full) is indicated, and as the level lowers the needle approaches E (Empty).
-
After refueling, it may require some time for the indicator to stabilize. In addition, the indicator may deviate while driving on a slope or curve since the fuel moves in the tank.
-
The direction of the arrow
indicates that the fuel-filler lid is on the left side of the vehicle.
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.
How to Use the Dashboard Illumination
-
Dim
-
Bright
A beep sound will be heard when the knob has been rotated to the maximum dim position.
Function for canceling illumination dimmer
The illumination dimmer can be cancelled by rotating the instrument panel illumination knob to the right until a beep sound is heard while the instrument cluster is dimmed with the vehicle power switched ON. If the instrument cluster's visibility is reduced due to glare from surrounding brightness, cancel the illumination dimmer.
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.
Instantaneous Fuel Economy Display
This displays the current fuel economy by calculating the amount of fuel consumption and the distance traveled.
Displays the 0 position when the vehicle speed decreases to a constant speed or slower.
Compass Display
The direction the vehicle is moving is displayed in one of eight directions while the vehicle is being driven.
Message Display
Displays a message to notify the user of the system operation status and malfunctions or abnormalities.
Follow the instructions indicated on the display.
