BEFORE DRIVING

57L20-03E

Average fuel consumption

If you selected average fuel consumption

the last time you drove the vehicle, the dis-

play shows the last value of average fuel

consumption from previous driving when

the engine switch is pressed to change the

ignition mode to “ON”. Unless you reset

the value of average fuel consumption, the

display indicates the value of average fuel

consumption which includes average fuel

consumption during previous driving.

NOTE:

When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-

minal to the battery, the value of average

fuel consumption will be shown after driv-

ing for a period of time.

You can select when the value of average

fuel consumption is reset from among the

following three methods;

• Reset after refuel: the value of average

fuel consumption will be reset automati-

cally by refueling.

• Reset with trip A: the value of average

fuel consumption will be reset automati-

cally by resetting trip meter A.

• Reset manually: the value of average

fuel consumption will be reset by pulling

and holding the DISP switch (2) when

the display indicates the average fuel

consumption.

To change when the value of average fuel

consumption is reset, refer to “Setting

Mode” later in this section. 

NOTE:

If you add only a small amount of fuel

when you select “Reset after refuel”, the

average fuel consumption value may not

be reset.

Driving range

If you selected driving range the last time

you drove the vehicle, the display indicates

“---” for a few seconds and then indicates

the current driving range when the engine

switch is pressed to change the ignition

mode to “ON”.

The driving range shown in the display is

the approximate distance you can drive

until the fuel gauge indicates “E”, based on

current driving conditions.

When the remaining fuel in fuel tank

reaches a low level, the display “---” will

appear. 

If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill

the fuel tank immediately regardless of the

value of driving range shown in the display.

As the driving range after refueling is cal-

culated based on the most recent driving

condition, the value is different each time

you refuel.

NOTE:

• If you refuel when the ignition mode is

changed to “ON” by pressing the engine

switch, the driving range may not indi-

cate the correct value.

• When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-

minal to the battery, the value of driving

range will be shown after driving for a

period of time.

Average Speed

If you selected average speed the last time

you drove the vehicle, the display indicates

the last value of average speed from previ-

ous driving when the engine switch is

pressed to change the ignition mode to

“ON”. Unless you reset the value of aver-

age speed, the display indicates the value

of average speed which includes average

speed during previous driving.

To reset the value of average speed, pull

and hold the DISP switch (2) for about 2

seconds when the display indicates an

average speed. The display shows “---”

and then indicates a new average speed

after driving for a short time.

NOTE:

When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-

minal to the battery, the value of average

speed will be shown after driving for a

period of time.
