TIPPush the “RESET” switch for less than
one second to display the clock for five
seconds, regardless of the currently
selected display mode.
If the fuel level warning light comes on
(see page 3-2), the display will auto-
matically change to the fuel reserve
tripmeter mode “Trip F” and start
counting the distance traveled from
that point. In that case, push the “SE-
LECT” switch to change the display
between the various tripmeter, odome-

fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the fuel meter
changes from two segments to only
one segment, approximately 5.0 L
(1.32 US gal, 1.10 Imp.gal) of fuel re-
mains in the fuel tank. Be sure to refuel
as soon as possible.TIPIf the display is showing another func-
tion when this occurs, the display will
automatically change to the fuel meter
mode.
