Gearshift Indicator
(If equipped)
68PH02218
When the gearshift lever is in a position
other than “N” (Neutral), the gearshift indi-
cator is indicated on the information dis-
play when the ignition switch is in “ON”
position or the ignition mode is “ON”.
The electronic control system monitors
driving condition (such as vehicle speed
and/or engine revolution), and it shows
which gear position is optimal for your driv-
ing with the indication on the display.
If UP/DOWN arrow and the gear position
other than currently selected are indicated
on the display while driving, we recom-
mend you to shift up or down the gear to
indicated position. It is the optimal gear
position for a driving condition that reduces
the over revolution and stress to the
engine, and improves fuel consumption.
For details on how to use the transmission,
refer to “Using the Transmission” in this
section.
NOTE:
• The gearshift indicator is not indicated
when the gear position is in “N” (Neu-
tral).
• If you depress the clutch pedal while UP/
DOWN arrow is indicated, the indication
will disappear.
• If you release your foot from the acceler-
ator pedal while UP arrow is indicated,
the indication will display the currently
selected gear position.
• The indication of gearshift indicator tim-
ing may differ depending on the vehicle
condition and/or driving situation even in
the same vehicle speed and engine rev-
olution.
