●

If a warning message is displayed, operation of the settings display will be suspended.

■

Tire pressure 

●

It may take a few minutes to display the tire inflation pressure after the engine switch is

turned to IGNITION ON mode. It may also take a few minutes to display the tire infla-

tion pressure after inflation pressure has been adjusted.

●

“---” may be displayed if the tire position information cannot be determined due to

unfavorable radio wave conditions.

●

Tire inflation pressure changes with temperature. The displayed values may also be dif-

ferent from the values measured using a tire pressure gauge.

Eco Driving Indicator Light

Liquid crystal display
Small spots or light spots may appear on the display. This phenomenon is characteristic

of liquid crystal displays, and there is no problem continuing to use the display.

P. 111, 569)

WARNING

■

Caution for use while driving

●

When operating the multi-information display while driving, pay extra attention to the

safety of the area around the vehicle.

●

Do not look continuously at the multi-information display while driving as you may fail

to see pedestrians, objects on the road, etc. ahead of the vehicle.

■

The information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal information

display. At extremely low temperatures, 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 braking and possibly an accident resulting in death or

injury.

■

Cautions during setting up the display
As the engine needs to be running during setting up the display, ensure that the vehicle

is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such as a garage,

exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect and enter the

vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health hazard.

NOTICE

■

While setting up the display
To prevent battery discharge, ensure that the engine is running while setting up the dis-

play features.
