NOTE

When the ignition is switched to ACC or 

off, the odometer or trip meters cannot be 

displayed, however, pressing the selector 

can inadvertently switch the trip meters or 

reset them during an approximate ten-

minute period in the following cases:



  After the ignition is switched to off from 

ON.



  After the driver's door is opened.

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.
