follows:
ODO,TRIP A,TRIP B,ODO
Resetting the trip odometer:
Push the reset knob for more than 1 second to
reset the trip odometer to zero.
TACHOMETERThe tachometer indicates engine speed in
revolutions per minute (r/min).When engine speed approaches the red
zone, shift to a higher gear. Operating
the engine in the red zone may cause
serious engine damage.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE GAUGEThe gauge indicates the engine coolant tem-
perature.
The engine coolant temperature will vary with
the outside air temperature and driving condi-
tions.If the gauge indicates engine coolant
temperature over the normal range, stop
the vehicle as soon as safely possible. If

This unit is a display unit with the following
functions:
IFunction to measure terrestrial magnetism
and indicate heading direction of vehicle
IFunction to indicate outside air temperature
IFunction to indicate caution for frozen road
surfaces
OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE
DISPLAYPush the switch when the ignition key is in the
ACC or ON position. The outside temperature
will be displayed in ÉF.
ISelecting the indication range
Push the switch to change from ÉF to ÉC.
IIf the outside temperature drops below the
freezing point, the display indicates ICE.IWhen the outside temperature is be-
tween 130ÉF (55ÉC) and 158ÉF (70ÉC), the
display shows 130ÉF (55ÉC).
IWhen the outside temperature is lower
than þ20ÉF (þ30ÉC) or higher than 158ÉF
(70ÉC), the display shows only
---
though it is operating. This is not a
problem.
IThe outside temperature sensor is
installed in the front of the radiator.
The display may not indicate the pre-
cise temperature due to the heat of
the road and engine depending on
the direction of the wind and driving
conditions, etc.
IUse the ICE indication for reference
only. Confirm the traffic information
and road conditions to drive safely.

COMPASS DISPLAYPush the switch when the ignition key is in the
ACC or ON position. The direction will be
displayed.Zone variation change procedureThe difference between magnetic north and
geographical north is known as variance. In
some areas, this difference can sometimes be
great enough to cause false compass read-
ings. Follow these instructions to set the vari-
ance for your particular location if this hap-
pens:
1. Establish your location on the zone map.
Record your zone number.
2. Push the ON/OFF switch in for five seconds
until the current zone entry number is dis-
played.
3. Press the ON/OFF switch repeatedly until
the new zone entry number is displayed.
Once the desired zone number is displayed,
stop pressing the ON/OFF switch and the
display will show compass direction within a
few seconds.

IIf a magnet is located near the compass
or the vehicle is driven where the terres-
trial magnetism is disturbed, the com-
pass display may not indicate the cor-
rect direction.
IIn places where the terrestrial magne-
tism is disturbed, the correction of the
direction starts automatically, extin-
guishing the direction bar. If turn is
made one or two times, the correction is
complete and the direction bar comes
back on.Correction functions of the compass
displayThe compass display is equipped with auto-
matic correction function. If the direction is not
shown correctly, carry out manual correction
procedure set out below.Manual correction procedure1. Push the switch for about 10 seconds. The
direction bar starts blinking.
2. Drive the vehicle slowly in an open and safe
area. The initial correction is completed
while turning one or two turns.
In places where the terrestrial magnetism
is extremely disturbed, the initial correc-tion procedure may start automatically.2-8
