Vehicle status information and indicators
■Tire pressure
●It may take a few minutes to display the
tire inflation pressure after the engine
switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode.
It may also take a few minutes to display
the tire inflation pressure after inflation
pressure has been adjusted.
●“---” may be displayed if the tire position
information cannot be determined due to
unfavorable radio wave conditions.
●Tire inflation pressure changes with tem-
perature. The displayed values may also
be different from the values measured
using a tire pressure gauge.
■Lap timer
Measures and displays current lap time
and previous lap times
Reading the display
Measured lap times since the timer was
last reset are displayed as follows:
• Content display area

*: If equipped
Pressing the “TVD” switch changes the
TVD control mode.
The current TVD control mode will be dis-
played on the meters.
1STANDARD mode
This is the default mo de and provides an
optimum balance of driving agility and sta-
bility.
NOTICE
■To prevent battery discharge
Do not operate the active rear wing
repeatedly while the engine is turned off.
TVD (Torque Vectoring Dif-
ferential)
*
The TVD system distributes driving
force (torque) between the right
and left rear wheels automatically.
This system contributes to
enhanced steering response while
cornering and increased traction
when exiting a corner, providing an
agile driving experience.
