Odometer

The odometer records the total distance
the vehicle has been driven.

Trip meter

The trip meter can record the total distance
of two trips. One is recorded in trip meter
A, and the other is recorded in trip meter
B.
 
For instance, trip meter A can record the
distance from the point of origin, and trip
meter B can record the distance from
where the fuel tank is filled.
 
When trip meter A is selected, pressing the
selector again within one second will
change to trip meter B mode.
 
When trip meter A is selected, TRIP A
will be displayed. When trip meter B is
selected, TRIP B will be displayed.
 
The trip meter records the total distance
the vehicle is driven until the meter is
again reset. Return it to “0.0” by
depressing and holding the selector for one
second or more. Use this meter to measure
trip distances and to compute fuel
consumption.

NOTE



If the fuel economy data is reset using
the fuel economy monitor, or trip A is
reset using the trip meter when the
function which synchronizes the fuel
economy monitor and the trip meter is
on, the fuel economy data and trip A are
reset simultaneously.
Refer to Fuel Economy Monitor on page
4-78.



Only the trip meters record tenths of
kilometers (miles).



The trip record will be erased when:



The power supply is interrupted
(blown fuse or the battery is
disconnected).



The vehicle is driven over 9999.9 km
(mile).

The tachometer shows engine speed in
thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm).

Do not run the engine with the tachometer
