Instruments and controls

! Odometer

The odometer shows the total distance
that the vehicle has been driven.
! Double trip meter

The trip meter shows the distance that the

vehicle has been driven since you last set
it to zero.
To set the trip meter to zero, select the A
trip or B trip meter by pushing the knob
and keep the knob pushed for more than 2
seconds.

CAUTION

To ensure safety, do not attempt to
change the function of the indicator
during driving, as an accident could
result.

NOTE

If the connection between the combina-
tion meter and battery is broken for any
reason such as vehicle maintenance or
fuse replacement, the data recorded on
the trip meter will be lost.

& Tachometer

The tachometer shows the engine speed
in thousands of revolutions per minute.

CAUTION

Do not operate the engine with the
pointer of the tachometer in the red
zone. This may cause severe da-
mage to the engine.

NOTE

To protect the engine while the selector
lever is in the

“P” or “N” position (for

AT models) or the shift lever is in the
neutral position (for MT vehicles), the
engine is controlled so that the engine
speed may not become too high even if
the accelerator pedal is pressed hard.
