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. At this time,

any adjustments made to the instrument

panel brightness levels will be applied to

both settings at once.

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. (
