Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
(if equipped)
This gauge indicates the temperature of the engine coolant when the ignition
switch or Engine Start/Stop button is ON.
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approxi- mate amount of fuel remaining in the fueltank.
The fuel tank capacity is given in sec-
tion 8.The fuel gauge is supplemented by
a low fuel warning light, which will illumi-
nate when the fuel tank is nearly empty.
OTA045507K/OTA045521
CAUTION
If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the
“130 or H” position, it indicates over-heating that may damage the engine.
Do not continue driving with anoverheated engine. If your vehicle
overheats, refer to “If the Engine Overheats” in chapter 6.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. The enginecoolant is under pressure and
could severely burn. Wait until the
engine is cool before adding
coolant to the reservoir.

ature around the vehicle.
The meter's working range is from -40°C to 60°C (-40°F to 140°F).

Distance to empty (km or mi.) (if equipped)
This mode indicates the estimated dis- tance to empty based on the current fuelin the fuel tank and the amount of fuel
delivered to the engine. When the
remaining distance is below 50 km (30
miles), “----” will be displayed.
The meter’s working range is from 1 to9999 km (1 to 9999 miles).
Average fuel consumption (L/100 km or MPG) (if equipped)
This mode calculates the average fuel consumption from the total fuel used and
the distance since the last average con-
sumption reset. The total fuel used is cal-culated from the fuel consumption input.
For an accurate calculation, drive morethan 300 m. Pressing the RESET button f or more than
1 second, when the average fuel con-
sumption is being displayed, clears the
average fuel consumption to zero (--.-).
If the vehicle speed exceeds 1 km/h after refueled more than 6 l, the average fuel
consumption will be cleared to zero (--.-).
Instant fuel consumption
(L/100 km or MPG) (if equipped)
Type A This mode calculates the instant fuel con-
sumption every 2 seconds from the driv-ing distance and quantity of fuel injection.
Type B This mode calculates the instant fuel con-
sumption every 0.2 seconds from the driv-ing distance and quantity of fuel injection.

gallons) of fuel are added to the vehicle.
 The fuel consumption (if equipped) and distance to empty values may
vary significantly based on driving
conditions, driving habits, and condi-
tion of the vehicle.
 The distance to empty value is an esti-
mate of the available driving distance.
This value may differ from the actual
driving distance available.WARNING
