Distance to empty (“RANGE”
shown on display)
This mode indicates the estimated
distance to empty based on the cur-
rent fuel in the fuel tank and the
amount of fuel delivered to the
engine. When the remaining distance
is below 50 km (30 miles), a blinking
“----” symbol will be displayed.

correctly.
The trip computer may not regis-
ter additional fuel if less than 6
liters (1.6 gallons) of fuel are
added to the vehicle.
• The fuel consumption and dis- tance to empty values may vary
significantly based on driving con-
ditions, driving habits, and condi-
tion of the vehicle.
• The distance to empty value is an estimate of the available driving
distance. This value may differ
from the actual driving distance
available.

5) Drive your vehicle in at least 2 complete (either clockwise or
counter-clockwise) circles at less
than 8 km/h (5 mph) until the com-
pass heading appears. Driving in
a circle in right-handed direction
and opposite direction is possible
and if possible, stop the wiper
operation.
6) If the vehicle's compass headings become inaccurate again, repeat
steps 1 through 6 above.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If new vehicle is first driven or if the
battery has been disconnected, do
the calibration procedure as above.

pensate for the variation between
true north and magnetic north. To set
variation:
1. Find your current location and
variance zone number on the zone
map.
2. Press and hold the ON/OFF but- ton for 6~9 seconds. The current
zone number will appear in the
display.
3. Release and press the ON/OFF button until the new zone number
appears in the display. After you

tion within a few seconds.
✽ ✽NOTICE
1. Do not install a ski rack, antenna,
etc. that are attached to the vehi-
cle using a magnet as anything
attached to the roof of the vehicle
with a magnet will effect compass
operation.
2. If the compass deviates from the correct indication soon after
repeated adjustment, have the
compass checked at an authorized
dealer.
3. The compass may not indicate the correct compass point in tunnels
or while driving up or down a
steep hill.
(The compass returns to the cor-
rect compass point when the vehi-
cle moves to an area where the
geomagnetism is stabilized.)
