INFORMATION DISPLAY : System Description
INFOID:0000000006221717
DESCRIPTION
The combination meter receives signals necessary for controlling the operation of the information display from each unit, sensor and switch.
The combination meter incorporates a trip computer t hat displays the warning/information according to the
information received from each unit, sensor and switch.
The combination meter shows the following functions on the information display.
- Odo/trip meter
- Shift position indicator
- Trip computer
- Interrupt indication
- Warning check indication
- Setting
ODO/TRIP METER
The ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) r eads the rectangular wave signal provided by the wheel
sensor and transmits the vehicle speed signal to the combination meter via CAN communication.
The combination meter converts the vehicle speed signal received via CAN communication to mileage, and it displays the accumulated mileage on the information display.
SHIFT POSITION INDICATOR
MANUAL MODE
The combination meter receives the following signal and transmits the signal to TCM via CAN communica-tion.
TCM judges a shift position, manual mode, and manual mode information, based on a signal received from
the combination meter via CAN communication and transmi ts the following signals to the combination meter
via CAN communication.
The combination meter activates the shift position indicator, and manual mode information, based on signals received from TCM via CAN communication.
NOTE:
When receiving a manual mode shift refusal signal from TCM via CAN communication, the combination meter
blinks the shift position indicator lamp and allows the integrated buzzer to ring a beep tone. For further infor-
mation, refer to TM-54, "
SHIFT PATTERN CONTROL : System Description".
NON-MANUAL MODE
Combination meter inputs non-manual mode signal from A/T shift selector (manual mode switch), and trans-
mits the signals to TCM with CAN communication line.
TCM transmits shift position signal to combination meter with CAN communication line.
Combination meter indicates shift position when receiving shift position signal.
TRIP COMPUTER
Current Fuel Consumption
The combination meter calculates current fuel cons umption based on the following signals, and the calculated
value is displayed on the information display.

The combination meter calculates distance to empty based on the following signals, and the calculated value
is displayed on the information display.
NOTE:
Distance to empty on the information display is updated approximately every 30 seconds.
When the ignition switch is turned from OFF to ON, “ −−−” is displayed until after a travel of approximately
500 m (0.31 mile).
The indicated values may not match each other when refueling with the ignition switch ON.

SYSTEM
The combination meter measures and displays travel time (ignition switch ON time).
Travel Distance
The combination meter calculates mileage, based on the following signals and displays the mileage on the
information display.
Ambient Temperature
The combination meter corrects an indicated temperature, based on various signals.
The combination meter calculates ambient air temperature based on the following signals, and the calcu-
lated value is displayed on the information display.
Correction Process (Temperature indicated soon after the ignition switch ON) A temperature indicated soon after the ignition switch is turned ON depends on the time from the ignition switch OFF to ON and a temperatur e detected by the ambient sensor.
When any condition described below is met, an ambient sensor-detected temperature is indicated.- Time from the ignition switch OFF to ON ≥ Predetermined time
- Sensor-detected temperature < Temperat ure at the last ignition switch OFF
Correction Process (Temperature at the Ignition switch ON) A temperature indicated when the ignition switch is ON depends on a vehicle speed, an ambient sensor-
detected temperature, and traveling time.
The temperature on the information display is corrected to an am bient sensor-detected temperature when the following condition
is met.
- Ambient sensor-detected temperature < Temperature on the information display
A temperature on the information display is no t updated when the following condition is met.
- Ambient sensor-detected temperature ≥ Temperature on the information display
- Vehicle speed ≤ 20 km/h (12 MPH)
A temperature on the information display slowly rises to an ambient sensor-detected temperature when the following condition is
met.
- Ambient sensor-detected temperature ≥ Temperature on the information display
- Vehicle speed ≥ 20 km/h (12 MPH)
A temperature on the information display rapidly rises to an ambient sensor-detected temperature when the following condition
is met.
- Ambient sensor-detected temperature ≥ Temperature on the information display
- Vehicle speed ≥ 20 km/h (12 MPH)
- When driving more than set time
A/C auto amp. connection recognition
The combination meter judges the A/C auto amp. connection/disconnection, based on an A/C auto amp.
