■

Torque distribution (if equipped)
Displays the distribution of driving torque between the left and right rear
wheels

●

Reading the display

• Normal display

Displays the amount of drive
torque applied to the left and
right rear wheels through bars
that fluctuate in length on the
content display area

• Advanced display

Displays the difference in
torque applied to the left and
right rear wheels through dis-
played segments on the sub-
content display area in addi-
tion to the bar display.
The greater the number of
segments displayed, the
greater the difference in
torque is.

●

Switching the display

To switch to advanced display, press

To return to normal display, press

●

Peak hold function (advanced display only)
If the difference in torque of 4
segments or more is applied to
the left or right rear wheel, a yel-
low outline will be displayed for
the highest segment that was
reached, for a certain amount of
time.

■

Odometer
Displays the total distance the vehicle has been driven.

■

Trip meter A/trip meter B
Displays the distance the vehicle has been driven since the meter was last
reset. Trip meters A and B can be used to record and display different dis-
tances independently.

To reset, display the desired trip meter and press and hold the odometer/trip meter

and trip meter reset button.

■

Eco Driving Indicator

Eco Driving Indicator will not operate under the following conditions:

●

The shift lever is in any position other than D.

●

A paddle shift switch is operated.

●

Neither normal mode nor Eco drive mode is selected. (

P. 301)

●

The vehicle speed is approximately 80 mph (130 km/h) or higher.

■

Start-up display
When the engine is started, the name of the vehicle is displayed on the multi-information

display.

While the start-up display is being displayed, the meter display cannot be changed even

if the drive mode is changed. When the start-up display is finished, the meter display for

the currently selected mode will be displayed.

■

Torque distribution display (if equipped)
Torque distribution may not be displayed correctly in some cases, such as when the vehi-

cle passes over road expansion joints.

Odometer/trip meter display

During Eco-friendly acceleration (Eco driving),

the Eco Driving Indicator Light will turn on.

When the acceleration exceeds the Zone of

Eco driving, or when the vehicle is stopped, the

light turns off.

■

G-force display

●

The G-force values may not be zero even when the vehicle is parked, such as when it is

parked on an incline.

●

The steering amount, accelerator pedal input, and brake fluid pressure displays are dis-

abled until the engine has warmed up (the variable red zone of the tachometer has

retracted to 7300 rpm).

After the engine has warmed up, these displays will be enabled.

●

Depending on the vehicle usage conditions, the brake fluid pressure display may not

reach its maximum reading even though the brake pedal is fully depressed.

●

If a battery terminal is disconnected and reconnected, the steering amount display may

be disabled temporarily. After driving the vehicle for a while, the display will be enabled.

■

Suspension of the settings display
In the following situations, operation of the settings display will be temporarily sus-

pended.

●

When a warning message appears on the multi-information display

●

When the vehicle begins to move

■

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.

■

When disconnecting and reconnecting battery terminals
The following information data will be reset:

●

Drive information

●

Lap timer: Measured lap times, history

●

G-force: Record of the maximum G-forces

■

Using the lap timer
If the engine is stopped while a lap is being timed, the lap timer will stop and the lap time

up to that point will be recorded.

■

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.

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.
