.

INTERIOR LIGHT DIMMER CONTROL FUNCTION (THE INITIAL CONDITION:

30 SECONDS)

When the interior light switch is set to the DOOR
position, ETACS-ECU controls the interior light as
follows.

1. When the ignition switch is OFF:

By opening any door, the light turns ON (100%),
and dims (50%) when the door is closed, then
and turns off after 30 seconds.
However, when the ignition switch is turned ON
or the door lock is operated, the lights turn off at
that time.

2. When the ignition switch is ON:

By opening any door, the light (100%) turns ON
and OFF when the door is closed.

3. When all doors are closed, and the ignition key is

removed

*

:

By removing the ignition key with all doors
closed, the light turns ON 50%, and turns off after
30 seconds. However, for the vehicles with
TC-SST, the light is not illuminated if the ignition
key is removed before the engine stops running
(approximately 1 second) since the ignition
switch was turned to the OFF position.

By inserting the ignition key again or operating
the door lock with the light lit, the lights turns off.

NOTE:

.

•

*

: For the vehicles with KOS, it is operated the

same way when the IG knob is turned to OFF or
when the emergency key is removed from the
key cylinder. However, for vehicles with TC-SST,
the light is turned off after approximately 1 sec-
ond (after engine stops running) since the IG
knob was turned OFF.

the delayed light-off time and the operation times
of the keyless entry interior light answer back can

INTERIOR LIGHT AUTOMATIC-SHUTOFF FUNCTION (THE INITIAL CONDITION: 30
MINUTES)

When an interior light such as the dome light [all inte-
rior lights connecting to the dome light fuse (the front
dome light, the rear dome light, and the ignition key
cylinder illumination lights)] is lit, but either one of the
conditions is met, the interior light is turned off auto-
matically for preventing the battery discharge caused
by the unattended operation or the door-ajar.

• After 30 minutes with the interior light lit while the

ignition switch is OFF, the light turns off automati-
cally.

• After 30 minutes with any door opened while the

ignition switch is OFF, the light turns off automati-
cally.

• After the auto-turn OFF, the interior light returns

to the illumination state when the doors are
opened/closed, keyless entry transmitter switch
is operated, or ignition switch is turned to ACC
position. After returning, the light turns OFF after
30 minutes, when the interior light auto turn off
condition is met.

NOTE: The interior light automatic shut-off time can
be adjusted by the Customization Function (Refer to

P.54A-17

).

COMBINATION METER

COMBINATION METER

GENERAL INFORMATION

M2545500200428

The combination meter offers the following advan-
tages.

• Speedometer and tachometer are arranged sepa-

rately on the cylindrical shaped panel, achieving
a sporty layout with which the zero position of
needle indicator is arranged directly downward.
Also, white is adopted for the needle color to
improve visibility.

• New font style that offers good visibility and

sporty feel has been adopted, and the color is
made to bright white that offers a good contrast
with the background matt black, securing excel-
lent visibility suitable for any driving condition
encountered during daytime and nighttime.

• With the tachometer, the needle movement is

made highly responsive to the engine speed.

• Multi information display has been adopted which

displays various information, such as the S-AWC
control level display, by the operation of multi
information meter switch.

• By switching the display color of multi information

display to red or yellow, the warning level is indi-
cated.

• The service reminder function has been adopted

which notifies the users of the next periodic
inspection timing using the driving distance and
elapsed time.

• By operating the rheostat switch, the brightness

of the meter and illumination can be adjusted in
eight steps.

• The layout has been simplified by displaying what

is required to meet the legislative requirements
with the indicator, and by displaying other things
with multi information display.

• A tone alarm is integrated in the combination

meter so that the alarm contents or the operation
status of switches can be checked with the tone
alarm sound.

• To assure the LCD display responsiveness and

brightness even under a low-temperature condi-
tion, the LCD heater has been adopted.
