“SET UP” button to set the selected item.
If the customization fails, the previous set-
ting will be displayed. If no button is
pressed for 10 seconds, the display
switches to INFO mode.

tings cannot be changed at a vehicle
speed of 5 km/h (3 mph) or more. A mes-
sage, “PLEASE STOP VEHICLE TO
CHANGE SETTINGS”, will be indicated on

If the “SYSTEM ERROR” message is indi-
cated on the screen, the customizing op-
eration cannot be performed due to a
communication error. In such cases, turn
the engine switch off and then on again.
When the communication returns to nor-
mal, the customizing operation can then
be performed. If the “SYSTEM ERROR”
message is indicated again, contact your
Toyota dealer.

Zoom display
This meter displays the odometer and
two trip meters.
Selecting the zoom display of the
odometer and trip meter allows the
odometer and one of the trip meters to
be displayed simultaneously.
1. Odometer—Shows the total distance the vehicle has been driven.
2. Two trip meters—Show two different distances independently driven since
the last time each trip meter was set
to zero.
You can use one trip meter to calculate
the fuel economy and the other to
measure the distance on each trip. All
trip meter data is cancelled if the elec-
trical power source is disconnected.
3. Trip meter reset knob—Resets the two trip meters to zero, and also changes
the meter display.
To change the meter display, quickly
push and release the knob. The meter
display changes in the order from the
odometer to trip meter A to trip meter
B, then back to the odometer each
time you push. To reset trip meter A to zero, display
the meter A reading, then push and
hold the knob until the meter is set to
zero. The same process can be applied
for resetting trip meter B.
