■Welcome illumination of the analog speedometer
●When the driver’s door is opened, th e analog speedometer will illuminate.
Then, when the driver’s door is closed, the analog speedometer will illuminate and go
off (pulsate) 3 times.
●In the following situations, the analog speedometer will no t pulsate even though the
driver’s door is opened and closed:
• Within 60 seconds after the analog meter pulsation completes
• Within 60 seconds of turn ing the engine switch off
■Va r i a b l e r e d z o n e
■Eco driving meter
●The number of blue segments displayed on the eco driving meter decreases/increases
depending on the vehicle acceleration. Use this meter as a guideline when you wish to
drive in an eco-friendly manner that reduces fuel consumption.
However, on a downward grade where the vehicle can accelerate without the acceler-
ator pedal being depressed, the eco driving meter may not display the eco-driving
state correctly.
●When the shift lever is moved to P, N or R, the segments will turn gray and the eco driv-
ing meter will not operate.

To help protect the engine, the engine speed is
controlled by starting the red zone of the
tachometer at different engine speeds ranging
from 3700 rpm to 7300 rpm depending on the
engine coolant temperature.
Before driving under extremely high load condi-
tions, make sure to sufficiently warm up the
engine.
