STEERING SCREENThe steering screen allows you to confirm how
the vehicle responds to your driving by display-
ing the results of how you operate the vehicle.
The results of your driving are displayed as a
timeline of the g-force exerted on the vehicle.
Use the displayed information to improve your
steering smoothness.
WARNING
.Use the information from the multi
function meter strictly as a refer-
ence to make your driving more
comfortable. The readings are not
meant to prevent accidents caused
by reckless driving or poor driving
conditions (due to weather, road
condition, etc.) . Always obey all
traffic regulations and posted speed
limits.
. Red zone readings are configured to
function only as a guide for smooth
driving. The readings are not in-
tended to prevent accidents caused
by reckless driving.
How to view screen&1
CORNERING G (timeline graph of lateral g-
force):
Displays the lateral g-force exerted on the
vehicle. The horizontal readout displays
lateral g-force while the vertical readout
displays a timeline of the past 20 seconds
of driving. G-force exerted on the vehicle
when turning left is displayed on the right
side of the screen. G-force exerted on the
vehicle when turning right is displayed on
the left side of the screen. The g-force
timeline will begin to scroll down automa-
tically after a short period of time.
&2
Red zone display:
The color of the graph will change when the
level of g-force exerted on the vehicle while
decelerating exceeds a preset level.
&3
G-meter:
Displays the g-force currently being exerted
on the vehicle due to deceleration.
&4
SPEED:
Displays the current driving speed.
&5
STEERING:
Displays the angle of the steering wheel.
INFO:
. The extent to which the steering of the
vehicle is displayed on the meter may vary
depending on the vehicle speed.
. Due to the slope of a road, this meter may
register g-force even when the vehicle is
stopped. This is not a malfunction
. When the VDC or the ABS is activated, a
mark will appear on the far left side of the
panel (large panel only) .
. The scale of the readout is adjusted auto-
matically to accommodate readings that
exceed the upper limit of the meter.

GEAR POSITION SCREENThe GEAR POSITION screen displays the gear
you are currently in, the current speed, and the
fuel economy level for each gear. This allows you
to verify the best gear to use at your current
driving speed. Use this panel to improve your
operation of the shift lever or paddle shifters.How to view screen&1
GEAR EFFICIENCY (displays the fuel
economy level):
Displays the current fuel economy level of
each gear. The lighter the blue color
displayed, the better the fuel economy will
be. The lighter the red color displayed, the
higher the torque will be.
&2
Speedometer (vertical):
Displays the current speed. This scale
changes with the speed of the vehicle.
&3
Selected gear (horizontal):
Displays the currently selected gear.
&4
SPEED:
Displays the current speed.
&5
GEAR (gear position):
Displays gear shifting mode and gear
position.
. Gear shifting mode: A range/ M range
. Gear position: N/P/R/1-6
INFO:
When using the M range mode, if you are unable
to change to the gear that you want, the position
indicator light will turn off.
Using result screens to improve
drivingThis section explains changing gears to suit
driving conditions.
INFO:
The displayed fuel economy level for each gear
is only an estimation and may differ from the
actual fuel economy.
Selecting gear for fuel economy:&1
With the most appropriate gear for fuel
economy selected, for the current speed of
the vehicle, the vehicle is being driven in an
efficient gear.

Changing gears for engine braking or
power:&1
The best gear for driving power is selected,
but in this example, it is also the least fuel
efficient gear.
FUEL ECONOMY SCREENThe FUEL ECONOMY screen allows you to
verify the fuel efficiency of your driving. Use this
information to make your driving more fuel
efficient.How to view screen&1
FUEL EFFICIENCY (timeline of fuel econ-
omy):
Displays the fuel economy timeline of the
past 20 minutes. The vertical readout
displays the fuel economy (on a scale of
10) and the horizontal readout displays the
timeline of the last 20 minutes.
&2
RECENT FUEL ECON. (fuel economy over
a given section):
Displays the fuel economy for the past 20
seconds while the vehicle is being driven.
&3
FUEL EFFICIENCY (fuel economy level (real
time)):
Displays the current fuel economy level
(measured on a scale of 10) . The higher
this value is, the better the fuel economy
level.
INFO:
Driving at a constant speed (no acceleration or
deceleration) will result in improved fuel econ-
omy.
Using result screens to improve
drivingThis section explains how to use the timeline
information confirmed from the result screens.
Use this information to make your driving more
fuel efficient.
INFO:
The eco driving level readings are estimations.
The actual fuel economy may differ.

Timeline and driving of good fuel econ-
omy:&1
The average fuel economy level is high,
indicating fuel-efficient driving.
&2
The current fuel economy level is shown to
be very high.
Timeline and driving of poor fuel econ-
omy:&1
The average fuel economy level is low,
indicating poor fuel efficiency.
&2
The current fuel economy level is low.
This allows you to measure/display the timeline
and waypoint history over a given time.STOPWATCH SCREENWith the STOP WATCH screen you can
measure a segment of time or passing time.
You can also display and save recorded time-
lines and data.How to view screen&1
