■The meters and display illuminate when

The engine switch is in ON.

■When changing driving mode

• Speedometer color is changed following the selected driving mode.
• AWD models: Speedometer color is changed following the selected driving mode or Multi-terrain Select mode.

■Manually updating the fuel gauge and possible driving range

The fuel gauge and the possible driving range are linked. If the displays of the fuel gauge and possible driving range do not update after adding a small amount of fuel, the displays can be updated by performing the following procedure.

1. Stop the vehicle on a level surface.

2. Press the "ODO TRIP" switch to change the odometer and trip meter display to odometer.

3. Turn the engine switch off.

4. While pressing and holding the "ODO TRIP" switch, turn the engine switch to ON.

5. Continue to hold the "ODO TRIP" switch for approximately 5 seconds, and then release it once the odometer begins flashing.

Updating is complete once the odometer flashes for approximately 5 seconds and then the display returns to normal.

■Outside temperature display

• In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be displayed, or the display may take longer than normal to change.
  • When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 12 mph [20 km/h] )
  • When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit of a garage, tunnel, etc.)
• When "--" or "E" is displayed, the system may be malfunctioning.

  Take your vehicle to your Toyota dealer.

• Displays the outside temperature within the range of -40ºF (-40ºC) to 122ºF (50ºC).
• When the outside temperature is approximately 37ºF (3ºC) or lower, the indicator will flash
  for approximately 10 seconds, then stay on.

■Customization

Settings (e. g. meter display) can be changed on the screen of the
multi-information display.

WARNING

■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 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.

NOTICE

■To prevent damage to the engine and its components

• Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red zone, which indicates the maximum engine speed.
• The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is in the red zone ("H"). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and check the engine after it has cooled completely.

Using the "ODO TRIP" switch

Switches the items of the odometer, trip meter A and trip meter B by pressing the "ODO TRIP" switch.

When the trip meter is displayed, pressing and holding the switch will reset the trip meter.

Instrument panel light control

The brightness of the instrument panel lights can be adjusted by turning the dial.

1. Brighter
2. Darker

■Instrument panel brightness adjustment

The instrument panel brightness levels when the tail lights are on and off can be adjusted individually.

However, when the surroundings are bright (daytime, etc.), turning on the tail lights will not change the instrument panel brightness.
