Vehicle information displays
The two vehicle information displays
can be individually set to show the fol-
lowing items:
ODO: odometer
F-TRIP: fuel reserve tripmeter
TRIP1: tripmeter
TRIP2: tripmeter
F.AVE: average fuel economy
F.CRNT: instantaneous fuel econ-
omy
A.TEMP: air temperature
C.TEMP: coolant temperature
Fuel meter
FUELCON: amount of fuel con-
sumed
TRIPTIME: running time
Operate the vehicle information display
as follows:
Rotate the wheel switch to move the
cursor over a display.
Push the wheel switch inward and the
selected display will highlight grey.
Rotate the wheel switch to choose a
different display item.

TIP
ODO will lock at 999999 and can-
not be reset.
TRIP1 and TRIP2 will reset to 0
and begin counting again after
9999.9 has been reached.
When the fuel tank reserve level
has been reached, F-TRIP ap-
pears automatically and begins
recording distance traveled from
that point.
After refueling and traveling some
distance, F-TRIP will automatically
disappear.
See “Unit” on page 4-17 to chan-
ge the fuel consumption units.
The air temperature is displayed
from –9 °C (16 °F) to 50 °C (122 °F)
in 1 °C (1 °F) increments.
The air temperature displayed
may vary from the actual ambient
temperature.
In LAP TIME mode, the vehicle in-
formation display is replaced by
the lap information.
TRIP1, TRIP2, F-TRIP, F.AVE, FU-
ELCON and TRIPTIME items can
be individually reset.
