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.

Using result screens to improve
drivingThis section explains how to use the driving
timeline screens. Use this information to make
your driving smoother.
INFO:
The criteria for smooth driving may vary depend-
ing on road conditions. Use this information for
reference purposes only.
Timeline and driving that show smooth
handling when driving through S-curve:&1
Turn the steering wheel slowly and the
angle of the graph slopes gently.
&2
Turning the wheel slowly through the turn
will result in a smooth, curving line.
&3
By turning the steering wheel slowly back to
its previous position, the line on the graph
timeline returns to its standard position and
the vehicle stabilizes.
Timeline and driving that show sudden
turning of steering wheel:&1
Because the wheel is turned quickly, the
buildup of the line is very sudden.
&2
When the wheel is turned back quickly, the
resulting line appears as a point.
&3
When the steering wheel is being turned in
an erratic manner, the vehicle is veering
abruptly. Because of this, the line on the
panel fluctuates without settling.

ELAPSED TIME:
Displays the total elapsed time measured
since the stopwatch function was started.
Measuring timed distanceTo measure the timed distance, use STOP> or on the steering switch.1. With the STOP WATCH screen displayed,
push . The timer-on in-
dicator will flash when the stopwatch func-
tion is active.
2. Each time you push the displayed
time will be recorded into the system and
will be viewable in the list.3. Push .Thestopwatch
function will stop timing.
INFO:
. The STOP WATCH function can only be
used when the clock is activated. .
If using the driver’s notes, the STOP

driver’s notes.
. If the ignition is in the OFF position, you will
not be able to use the STOP WATCH
function.
. If the ignition is put into the ACC or the OFF
position while using the timer, timing will
end.
. The timer will continue timing while you
display other screens until you push
.
. The maximum time that the system timer can
display is a recorded time of up to 9 hours
59 minutes and 59.99 seconds.
. When timing has finished, the upper timer
will reset to 00:00.0
. When the recorded time and the finished
recording time are displayed, they tempora-
rily interrupt the time recorder display and
are displayed in large numbers. The re-
corded time will disappear automatically
after 5-10 seconds.
. When screens other than the multi function
meter are displayed, the STOP WATCH
screen will not interrupt the display.
