Vehicle status information and indicators
■Rev peak (Normal mode/SPORT
S mode)
The engine speed reaches or exceeds
3600 rpm, an afterimage of the
tachometer will be displayed at the
highest engine speed for approxi-
mately 1 second.
■Meter display and layout
If the drive mode is changed, some of
the meter displays and the gauge lay-
out will be changed. ( P.192)
■The meters and display illuminate when
The engine switch is in IGNITION ON
mode.
■Welcome illumination of the analog
speedometer
●When the driver’s door is opened, the
analog speedometer will illuminate. Then,
when the driver’s door is closed, the ana-
log speedometer will illuminate and go
off (pulsate) 3 times.
●In the following situations, the analog
speedometer will not pulsate even
though the driver’s door is opened and
closed:
• Within 60 seconds after the analog
meter pulsation completes
• Within 60 seconds of turning the engine switch off
■Variable red zone
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 tem-
perature. Before driv ing under extremely
high load conditions, make sure to suffi-
ciently warm up the engine.
■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
accelerator 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
driving meter will not operate.
■Dimming the analog speedometer light-
ing
The analog speedometer lighting will be
dimmed when the ambient light is bright,
such as during the daytime, and SPORT S
or SPORT S+ mode is selected.
■Outside temperature display
●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 12 mph [20 km/h])
• When the outside temperature has

reference.
*3: When only a small amount of fuel is added to the tank, the display may not
be updated.
When refueling, turn the engine switch
off. If the vehicle is refueled without
turning the engine switch off, the display
may not be updated.
*4: This distance is computed based on
your average fuel consumption. As a
result, the actual distance that can be
driven may differ from that displayed.
■Eco Driving Indicator
During Eco-friendly acceleration (Eco
driving), the Eco Driving Indicator
Light will turn on.
When the acceleration exceeds the
Zone of Eco driving, or when the vehi-
cle is stopped, the light turns off. Eco Driving Indicator will not operate
under the following conditions:
The shift lever is in any position
other than D.
A paddle shift switch is operated.
Neither normal mode nor Eco drive
mode is selected. ( P.192)
The vehicle speed is approximately
80 mph (130 km/h) or higher.

■Gear positions
Displays the current gear position
when the shift lever is in D or M.
■Vehicle sway warning
Detects the sway of the vehicle within a
lane, which is often associated with a
decrease in the driver’s attention level,
and displays the decrease in attention
using a bar display.
The shorter the bar length, the more
the driver may need to rest.
This display is a pa rt of the LDA (Lane
Departure Alert with steering control) sys-
tem. The display is en abled when the oper-
ating conditions of the vehicle sway
warning are met. ( P.165)
