odometer reset stem to view the
following displays: odometer, trip
odometers, oil life, park assist menu
for vehicles with the Ultrasonic Rear
Parking Assist (URPA) system,

ODOMETER
Press the trip odometer reset stem
until ODOMETER displays. This
display shows the distance the
vehicle has been driven in either
kilometers (km) or miles (mi).
To switch between English and
metric measurements, see “UNITS”
later in this section.
TRIP A or TRIP B
Press the trip odometer reset stem
until TRIP A or TRIP B displays. This
display shows the current distance
traveled in either kilometers (km) or
miles (mi) since the last reset for
each trip odometer. Both trip
odometers can be used at the
same time.
Each trip odometer can be reset to
zero separately by pressing and
holding the trip odometer reset stem
while the desired trip odometer is
displayed.
The trip odometer has a feature
called the retroactive reset. This can
be used to set the trip odometer to
the number of kilometers (miles)
driven since the ignition was last
turned on. This can be used if the
trip odometer is not reset at the
beginning of the trip.
To use the retroactive reset feature,
press and hold the trip odometer
reset stem for at least four seconds.
The trip odometer will display the
number of kilometers (km) or
miles (mi) driven since the ignition
was last turned on and the vehicle
was moving. Once the vehicle
begins moving, the trip odometer
will accumulate mileage. For
example, if the vehicle was driven
8 km (5 mi) before it is started again,
and then the retroactive reset
