To alternate the temperature reading between
Fahrenheit and Celsius
Press the display switch above 3 seconds, less than 6
seconds until the display blinks °F and °C.
Press the display switch to toggle between the Fahrenheit
and Celsius readings within 5 seconds.
After 5 seconds of inactivity, the original item (Outside
temperature/Compass) is again displayed.
NOTE
• The outside temperature can be displayed from
-40°F (-40°C)
• If the outside temperature is below -40°F (-40°C) or
over 140°F (60° C) an error message “SC” or “OC”
will be shown in the display. If an error message
(“SC” or “OC”) will be shown in the display, have
the system checked at an authorized dealer.
• If the outside temperature drops below about 37°F
(3°C)
• The outside temperature displayed may differ from
the actual temperature on account of surrounding
conditions, driving conditions, etc.

Compass operation
When the ignition key is in the “ACC” or “ON” position,
the vehicle’s current directional heading (N, NE, E, SE, S,
SW, W and NW) will be displayed.
Magnetic variation of compass
Under certain circumstances, as during a long distance
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjust for
magnetic variation of compass. Magnetic variation of
compass is the difference between earth’s magnetic north
and true geographic north. If not adjusted to account for
magnetic variation of compass, your compass could give
false readings.
To adjust for magnetic variation of compass
1. Press the display switch more than 9 seconds, less than
12 seconds. The current zone number will appear in the
display.

2. Find your current location and variance zone number
on the zone map.
3. Press the display switch until the new zone number
appears in the display. After 5 seconds of inactivity, the
original item (Outside temperature/Compass) displayed
again.
NOTE
• Do not attach ski racks, antennas, or any other object
to the vehicle by means of a magnet. Such magnets
will affect the operation of the compass.
• If the compass deviates from the correct indication
soon after repeated adjustment, have the compass
checked at an authorized dealer.
• The compass may not indicate the correct compass
point in the places shown below:
• Vehicles in tunnels or parked in buildings
• Expressways, near railroads, underneath railroad
cables, or over subways
• Near transformer stations or high voltage power
lines
In these cases, the correct direction will be displayed once
the vehicle returns to a place where the earth’s magnetic
field is stable.

To calibrate the compass
If the display reads “CAL” (A), there may be a strong
magnetic field interfering with the compass. In this case,
the compass may need calibration.
If the “CAL” is displayed, drive the vehicle in a circle at
about 5 mph (8km/h) or less until the “CAL” goes off.

If the “CAL” is not displayed, but compass calibration is
required, press and hold the display switch for 12 sec-
onds, or until “CAL” is displayed. With “CAL” dis-
played, drive the vehicle in a circle at less than 5mph
(8km/h) or less until the “CAL” goes off.
Cleaning of the mirror
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar
material dampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass
cleaner directly on the mirror as that may cause the liquid
cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
Electric remote-controlled outside mirrors
The outside rearview mirrors can be adjusted when the
ignition key is in the “ON” or “ACC” position.
Place the lever (A) to the same side as the mirror whose
adjustment is desired:
L - Left outside mirror adjustment
R - Right outside mirror adjustment

CRUISE/SPEED CONTROL
Cruise/speed control is an automatic speed control sys-
tem. It lets you keep the same driving speed. Cruise/
speed control can be used at 25mph (40km/h) or more. It
is especially useful for freeway driving. Cruise/speed
control does not work at speeds below about 25mph
(40km/h).

CAUTION!
• For safety reasons, the main switch (A) should be
set to the OFF position when you are not using the
cruise/speed control system.
• Cruise/speed control is not recommended when
driving conditions will not allow you to stay at the
same speed, such as in heavy traffic or on roads
that are winding, icy, snow-covered, wet, or slip-
pery, or on a steep downhill.
• For vehicles with instruction transaxles, if you shift to
“N” (Neutral) in cruise/speed control mode with-
out pressing the clutch first, the engine will run
too fast and might be damaged.
NOTE
• Cruise/speed control may not be able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills.
• Your speed may drop on a steep uphill. You must
use the accelerator if you want to stay at your set
speed.
• Your speed may increase to more than the set speed
on a steep downhill. You must use the brake to
control your speed. If your speed increases too
much, turn off the cruise/speed control. (Refer to
the section “To deactivate” on page 196.)
To activate
1. Momentarily push in the main switch (A) at the end of
the cruise/speed control lever.

Cruise/speed control lever
Pull the cruise/speed control lever up and hold it. Your
speed will then gradually increase. When you reach your
desired speed, release the switch. Your cruising speed is
now set.
To increase your speed in small amounts, pull the cruise/
speed control lever up for less than 1 second and release
it. Each time you pull the lever up, your vehicle will go
about 1 mph (1.6km/h) faster.
Accelerator
Press the accelerator pedal to reach your desired speed.
Pull the cruise/speed control lever down for a moment,
then release it.
To decrease the set speed
There are 2 ways to reduce the set speed.

control lever down for less than 1 second and release it.
Each time you press the lever down, your vehicle will
slow down by about 1 mph (1.6km/h).
