The Eco guide will not operate when
The Eco guide will not operate in the following situations:

●

The Hybrid System Indicator is not operating.

●

The vehicle is being driven using the dynamic radar cruise control with full-
speed range.

■

Suspension of the settings display

●

Some settings cannot be changed while driving. When changing settings,
park the vehicle in a safe place.

●

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
power switch is turned to ON mode. It may also take a few minutes to dis-
play the tire inflation 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 different from the values measured using a tire pressure gauge.

■

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 down-
shift again, causing rapid and excessive engine braking and possibly an
accident resulting in death or injury.

■

Cautions during setting up the display
As the hybrid system 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 12-volt battery discharge, ensure that the hybrid system is oper-
ating while setting up the display features.
