[Calibrate]:
The tyre pressure is affected by the temperature of

the tyre; the tyre temperature increases when the

vehicle is driven. The TPMS system uses tempera-

ture sensors in the tyres to compensate for changes

in temperature in order to prevent false TPMS warn-

ings.
The [CALIBRATE] function resets the previously

stored temperature value. It is recommended that

this function is performed after the tyre pressures

are adjusted.

Wheel Drive (4WD) (where fitted)” in the “5. Start-

ing and driving” section.)

If the 4WD mode indicator (see “4WD mode

indicator” in the “5. Starting and driving” section)

is OFF or the ATP warning light is ON, this indi-

cates that the automatic transmission P (Park)

position will not function and could result in the

vehicle moving unexpectedly, causing serious

personal injury or property damage. Always set

the parking brake.

The low fuel level warning appears on the vehicle

information display when the fuel level in the tank is

OIL CONTROL SYSTEM (where fitted

for diesel engine model)

When the ignition switch is in the ON position, en-

gine oil information is displayed.
Engine oil information informs the distance to oil

change, oil level indication and malfunction of oil

level sensor.

1. Distance to oil change

The distance to oil change is displayed if the dis-

tance to oil change is less than 1,500 km (930 miles).

2. Oil replacement indicator

When the set mileage approaches, the engine oil

replacement indicator will appear on the display.

After the oil is changed, reset the distance to oil

change. The oil replacement indicator will not be

reset automatically. To reset this indicator, see

“Settings” earlier in this section.
The distance to oil change interval cannot be ad-

justed manually. The distance to oil change interval

is set automatically.
CAUTION

•

If the oil replacement indicator is displayed,

change the engine oil as soon as possible.

Operating your vehicle with deteriorated oil

can damage the engine.

•

Never perform reset if the engine oil was not

changed. Always visit an approved dealer or

qualified workshop to perform the engine oil

change including an oil filter change and the

reset.

NOTE

•

It is not possible to undo the reset.

•

Resetting the oil change distance is only pos-

sible when:
– The distance to oil change is displayed in

the vehicle information display.

– The oil replacement indicator is displayed

in the vehicle information display.

•

The engine oil should be changed before the

distance to oil change reaches 0 km (0 miles).

Continued driving after the distance to oil

change reaches 0 km (0 miles) may result in

reduced engine performance.

•

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) may also

become saturated because regeneration is

restricted once the distance to oil change

reaches 0 km (0 miles).
Have the vehicle inspected by an approved

dealer or qualified workshop if the above con-

dition occurs.

•

The oil change interval will reduce faster with

certain types of driving, especially at low

speeds in urban conditions.

3. Low level reminder

If the low level indicator is displayed, the engine oil

level is low. If the low level reminder is displayed,

check the level using the engine oil dipstick. (See

“Checking engine oil level” in the “8. Maintenance

and do-it-yourself” section.)
CAUTION
The oil level should be checked regularly using

the engine oil dipstick. Operating with an insuffi-

cient amount of oil can damage the engine and

such damage is not covered by the warranty.

4. Oil level sensor warning

If the oil sensor warning is displayed, the engine oil

level sensor may be malfunctioning. Contact an ap-

proved dealer or qualified workshop immediately.

is dis-

played on the screen (where fitted).
The outside temperature sensor is located in front of

the radiator. The sensor may be affected by road or

engine heat, wind directions and other driving con-

ditions. The display may differ from the actual out-

side temperature or the temperature displayed on

various signs or billboards.
