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

• 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.

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.

ing
The analog speedometer lighting will be
dimmed when the ambient light is bright,
such as during the daytime, and SPORT S

outside temperature may not be dis-
played, or the display may take longer
than normal to change:
