NOTE This light does not go out unless the tank is
replenished up to an internal fuel quantity ofabout 4.0 U.S. gal. (15 liters, 3.3 Imp. gal.). Temperature gauge
1) Normal operating range
The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tem-
perature when the ignition switch is in the “ON” posi-
tion.
The coolant temperature will vary in accordance
with the outside temperature and driving conditions. We recommend that you drive moderately until the
pointer of the temperature gauge reaches near the
middle of the range. Engine operation is optimum
with the engine coolant at this temperature range
and high revving operation when the engine is not
warmed up enough should be avoided.
CAUTION
If the pointer exceeds the normal operating range, safely stop the vehicle as soon as pos-sible.See
“In case of emergency ” in chapter 9.
Ambient temperature gauge (if equipped)
The ambient temperature gauge shows the ambient
temperature in a range from –22°F to 122 °F ( –30 °C
to 50 °C).
The gauge can give a false reading under any of the
following conditions: When there is too much sun.
During idling; while running at low speeds in a
traffic jam; when the engine is restarted immediately
following a shutdown. When the actual ambient temperature falls outside

the button will illuminate. By pressing and releasing the right button, the
compass display is toggled on or off. When the
compass is on, an illuminated compass reading will
appear in the lower part of the mirror.
Even with the mirror in anti-glare mode, the mirror
surface turns bright if the transmission is shifted into
reverse. This is to ensure good rearward visibility
during reversing.
n Photosensors
The mirror has a photosensor attached on both the
front and back sides. If the glare from the headlights
of vehicles behind you strikes the mirror, these sen- sors detect it and make the reflection surface of the
mirror dimmer to help prevent you from being
blinded. For this reason, use care not to cover the
sensors with stickers, or other similar items. Periodi-
cally wipe the sensors clean using a piece of dry
soft cotton cloth or an applicator.
n Compass calibration
1. For optimum calibration, switch off all nonessen-
tial electrical accessories (rear window defogger,
heater/air conditioning system, spotlight, etc.) and
ensure all doors are shut.
2. Drive to an open, level area away from large me-
tallic objects or structures and make certain the igni-
tion switch is in the “ON” position.
3. Press and hold the left button for 3 seconds then
release, and the compass will enter the calibration
mode. “CAL” and direction will be displayed.
4. Drive slowly in a circle until “CAL” disappears
from the display (about two or three circles). Thecompass is now calibrated.
5. Further calibration may be necessary should out-
side. Influences cause the mirror to read inaccurate-
ly. You will know that this has occurred if your com-
pass begins to read in only limited directions.
Should you encounter this situation, return to step
one of the above procedure and recalibrate the
mirror.
