Auto up/down window
(Driver's window, if equipped)
Pressing or pulling up the power window
switch momentarily to the second detent
position (6) completely lowers or raises
the window even when the switch is
released. To stop the window at the
desired position while the window is in
operation, pull up or press down and
release the switch.
If the power window does not operate
normally, the automatic power window
system must be reset as follows:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON posi- tion.
2. Close the driver’s window and contin- ue pulling up the driver’s power win-
dow switch for at least 1 second after
the window is completely closed. Automatic reversal
If the upward movement of the window is
blocked by an object or part of the body,
the window will detect the resistance and
will stop upward movement. The window
will then lower approximately 30 cm (11.8
in.) to allow the object to be cleared.
The distance may vary based on the size
or position of the window. If the window
detects the resistance while the power
window switch is pulled up continuously,
the window will stop upward movement
then lower approximately 2.5 cm (1 in.).
And if the power window switch is pulled
up continuously again within 5 seconds
after the window is lowered by the auto-
matic window reversal feature, the auto-
matic window reversal will not operate.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
The automatic reverse feature for the
driver’s window is only active when the
“auto up” feature is used by fully
pulling up the switch. The automatic
reverse feature will not operate if the
window is raised using the halfway posi-
tion on the power window switch.

WARNING
Always check for obstructions
before raising any window to avoid
injuries or vehicle damage. If an
object less than 4 mm (0.16 in.) in
diameter is caught between the
window glass and the upper win-
dow channel, the automatic reverse
window may not detect the resist-
ance and will not stop and reverse
direction.OUN026013

Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approxi-
mate amount of fuel remaining in the fuel
tank.
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.
On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier than
usual due to the movement of fuel in the
tank.

Odometer/Tripmeter/TRIP computer (if equipped)
The trip computer is a microcomputer-
controlled driver information system that
displays information related to driving,
such as odometer, tripmeter, distance to
empty, average speed, driving time, aver-
age fuel consumption, and the ECOMIN-
DER
TM Indicator (ECO ON/OFF) mode on
the display when the ignition switch is in
the ON position. All stored driving infor-
mation (except odometer and distance to
empty) is reset if the battery is discon-
nected.
WARNING- Fuel gauge
Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain addition-
al fuel as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the
E level.
CAUTION
Avoid driving with a extremely low fuel level. Running out of fuel couldcause the engine to misfire, damag-ing the catalytic converter.

vidual trips selected since the last trip-
meter reset.
The meter's working range is from 0.0 to
999.9 km (0.0 to 999.9 miles).
Pressing the RESET button, when the

Distance to empty (km or mi.)
This mode indicates the estimated dis-
tance to empty based on the current fuel
in 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 and the dis-
tance to empty indicator (RANGE) will
blink until the vehicle is refueled.
The meter’s working range is from 50 to
990 km (30 to 990 miles). Average fuel consumption
(l/100 km or MPG)
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 more
than 50 m (0.03 miles).
Pressing the RESET button for 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 (1.6
MPH) after refueled more than 6 l
(1.6
gallons), the average fuel consumption
will be cleared to zero (--.-). Instant fuel consumption (if equipped)
(l/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the instant fuel
consumption during the last few sec-
onds.

• If the vehicle is not on level ground or
the battery power has been interrupt-
ed, the “Distance to empty” function
may not operate correctly.
The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 6 liters (1.6
gallons) of fuel are added to the vehi-
cle.
• The fuel consumption and distance to empty values may vary significantly
based on driving conditions, driving
habits, and condition 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.
Average speed (km/h or MPH)
This mode calculates the average speed
of the vehicle since the last average
speed reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
average speed keeps going while the
engine is running.
Pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second, when the average speed
is being displayed or after the engine
stops and 2 hours elapsed clears the
average speed to zero (---). Driving time
This mode indicates the total time trav-
eled since the last driving time reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
driving time keeps going while the engine
is running.
The meter’s working range is from
0:00~99:59.
Pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second, when the driving time is
being displayed or after the engine stops
and 2 hours elapsed clears the driving
time to zero (0:00).
