Double trip meter
This meter display two trip meters when
the ignition switch is in the
“
LOCK (off)
”

The trip meter shows the distance that the
vehicle has been driven since you last set

To change the mode indication, briefly
push the knob.
Each press of the knob changes the
function alternately.
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.
If you press the trip knob when the ignition
switch is in the
“

”
position, the
odometer/trip meter will light up. It is
possible to switch between the A trip
meter and B trip meter indications while
the odometer/trip meter is lit up. If you do
not press the trip knob within 5 seconds of
illumination of the odometer/trip meter, the
odometer/trip meter will go off. Also, if you
open and close the driver
’
s door or turn
the ignition switch to the
“

”
position
within 5 seconds of illumination of the
odometer/trip meter, the odometer/trip
meter will go off.
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. In this range, fuel injection will
be cut by the engine control module
to protect the engine from overrev-
ving. The engine will resume run-
ning normally after the engine speed
is reduced below the red zone.
NOTE (3.0-liter models only)
To protect the engine while the
“
P
”
or
“
N
”
position is selected, the engine is
controlled such that the engine speed
does not become too high even if the
accelerator pedal is pressed hard.
