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

though the driver’s door is opened and
closed:
• Within 60 seconds after the analog

■Variable red zone
To help protect the engine, the engine
speed is controlled by starting the red zone
of the tachometer at different engine

●The number of blue segments displayed
on the eco driving meter

However, on a downward grade where
the vehicle can accelerate without the
accelerator pedal being depressed, the
eco driving meter ma y 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.
