one second when the average vehicle speed is displayed.
■ Cruising range
Displays the estimated maximum distan ce that can be driven with the
quantity of fuel remaining • This distance is computed based on your average fuel consumption. As
a result, the actual distance that can be driven may differ from that dis-
played.
• When only a small amount of fuel is added to the tank, the display may
not be updated.
When refueling, turn the “POWER” switch off. If the vehicle is refueled
without turning the “POWER” switch off, the display may not be
updated.
■ Tire inflation pressure
Displays inflation pressure of each tire. There is no correlation between
the order of the displayed values and the tire positions. If the inflation pressure of any tire drops a certain amount below the tire infla-
tion pressure value currently memorized in the system, the displayed values
will be highlighted.
It may take a few minutes to display the tire inflation pressure after the
“POWER” switch is turned to ON mode. It may also take a few minutes to
display the tire inflation pressure after inflation pressure has been adjusted.
If the tire pressure warning light is on or flashing, a message describing the
situation will be displayed.
