When you unlock and open the
driver’s door, the display shows
‘‘DRIVER 1’’ or ‘‘DRIVER 2’’

when the power mode is set to ON.
The multi-inf ormation display in the
instrument panel displays various
inf ormation and messages when the

maintenance your vehicle needs f or

is the equivalent of ON (II). For
more inf ormation, see pagesand .

normal display messages, engine oil
lif e and maintenance messages, and
system messages. :
