WARNING
■Caution for use while driving
For safety, avoid operating the meter control switches while dr iving as much
as  possible,  and  do  not  look  continuously  at  the  multi-informat ion  display
while driving. Stop the vehicle and operate the meter control s witches. Fail-
ure  to  do  so  may  cause  a  steering  wheel  operation  error,  result ing  in  an
unexpected accident.
■ Cautions while setting up the display
As the engine needs to be running during setting up the display , ensure that
the  vehicle  is  parked  in  a  place  with  adequate  ventilation.  In  a  closed  area
such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxi de (CO)
may  collect  and  enter  the  vehicle.  This  may  lead  to  death  or  a  serious
health hazard.
■ The multi-information display at low temperatures
Allow  the  interior  of  the  vehicle  to  warm  up  before  using  the  m ulti-informa-
tion  display.  At  extremely  low  temperatures,  the  multi-informat ion  display
monitor may respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For  example,  there  is  a  lag  between  the  driver’s  shifting  and  t he  new  gear
number  appearing  on  the  display. This  lag  could  cause  the  drive r  to  down-
shift  again,  causing  rapid  and  excessive  engine  braking  and  pos sibly  an
accident resulting in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■ While setting up the display
To prevent battery discharge, ensure that the engine is running while setting
up the display features.
