The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
■Instrument cluster brightness adjustment
The instrument cluster brightne ss levels when the tail lights are on and off can be
adjusted.
■The brightness of the instrument cluster lights
When the tail lights are on, the brightness will change. However, when the sur-
roundings are bright (daytime, etc.) turning on the tail lights will not change the
instrument cluster brightness. 
In addition, the brightness of the instrument cluster lights is automatically adjusted
based on the light sensor detecting how bright the surroundings are.

The trip meter data will be reset. 
If the trip meter was displayed last, the ODO screen will be displayed after reset-
ting.

Setting of sensitivity of the ambient light sensor used for dimming the meter lights
can be changed. (Customizable features P. 7 8 1 )
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the engine and its components
●Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red zone, which indi-
cates the maximum engine speed.
●The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is in the
red zone (H). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and check

■When disconnecting and reconnecting battery terminals
The following information data will be reset:
●Average fuel consumption after refueling
●Average fuel consumption
●Average vehicle speed
●Elapsed time
CAUTION
■The multi-information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the information display. At
extremely low temperatures, the information display 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 downshift again, causing
rapid and excessive engine braking and poss ibly an accident resulting in death or
serious injury.
