In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be dis-
played, or the display may take longer than normal to change.
When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 20 km/h [12 mph])
When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit of
a garage, tunnel, etc.)

power switch is turned to ON mode. It may also take a few minutes to dis-
play the tire inflation pressure after inflation pressure has been adjusted.
“---” may be displayed if the tire position information cannot be determined
due to unfavorable radio wave conditions.
Tire inflation pressure changes with temperature. The displayed values may
also be different from the values measured using a tire pressure gauge.

CAUTION
The information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal
information display. At extremely low temperatures, the information dis-
play monitor may respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear
number appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to down-
shift again, causing rapid and excessive engine braking and possibly an
accident resulting in death or injury.
Cautions during setting up the display
As the hybrid system needs to be operating during setting up the display,
ensure that the vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a
closed area such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon mon-
oxide (CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a
serious health hazard.
NOTICE
During setting up the display
To prevent 12-volt battery discharge, ensure that the hybrid system is oper-
ating while setting up the display features.
