Vehicle status information and indicators
Switches between odometer, trip
meter and maintenance required infor-
mation (if equipped) displays. When

■ Instrument panel brightness adjustment
The instrument panel brightness levels
when the tail lights are on and off can be
adjusted individually. However, when the
surroundings are bright (daytime, etc.),
turning on the tail lights will not change the
instrument panel brightness.
WARNING
■ The information display at low tem-
peratures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm
up before using the liquid crystal infor-
mation display. At extremely low tem-
peratures, the information display
monitor may respond slowly, and display
changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the
driver’s shifting and the new gear number
appearing on the display. This lag could
cause the driver to downshift again,
causing rapid and excessive engine brak-
ing and possibly an accident resulting in
personal death or injury.
NOTICE
■ To prevent damage to the engine and
its components
● Do not let the indicator needle of the
tachometer enter the red zone, which
indicates the maximum engine speed.
● The engine may be overheating if the
engine coolant temperature gauge is
in the red zone (H); or “Engine Cool-
ant Temp High” is shown on the multi-
information display. In this case, imme-
diately stop the vehicle in a safe place,
and check the engine after it has
cooled completely. (P.465)
