“3,000 km” or “2,000 miles” will be shown.
l When the driving range cannot be measured,
the display shows “----”.
l The driving range is shown based on the ac-
cumulated fuel consumption data, however,
may be changed depending on the driving condition (road condition, driving behavior, etc.). If the battery terminals are disconnec-
ted, the accumulated fuel consumption data will be erased. It is recommended to use the indication as reference.

will be updated. However, if the amount of
fueling is small, the indication may not be
correct. Therefore, fill up the tank as much as possible in case of fueling.

slope, the value of the driving range may in-
crease. This is caused by the fuel movement inside the tank on the slope and is not
deemed as a failure.Resetting the driving range

dry.
They may scratch the glass surface and
the blades wear out prematurely.
l Before using the wipers in cold weather,
check that the wiper blades are not fro-
zen onto the glass. The motor may burn out if the wipers are used with the blades
frozen onto the glass.
