If this indicator comes on and stays on at any other time, or if it does not come on when you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position, there is a problem with the TPMS. With this indicator on, the low tire pressure indicator will not come on when a tire loses pressure. Take the vehicle to your dealer to have the system checked.

72

Turn Signal and Hazard Warning Indicators The left or right turn signal indicator blinks when you signal a lane change or turn. If an indicator does not blink or blinks rapidly, it usually means one of the turn signal bulbs is burned out (see pages ). and Replace the bulb as soon as possible, since other drivers cannot see that you are signaling.

The temperature sensor is in the front bumper. The temperature reading can be affected by heat reflection from the road surface, engine heat, and the exhaust from surrounding traffic. This can cause an incorrect temperature reading when your vehicle speed is under 19 mph (30 km/h). When you start your trip, the sensor is not fully acclimatized, therefore it may take several minutes until the proper temperature is displayed.

Check Fuel Cap Message Your vehicle’s onboard diagnostic system will detect a loose or missing fuel fill cap as an evaporative system leak. The first time a leak is detected a ‘‘CHECK FUEL CAP’’ message appears on the information display.

Turn the engine off, and confirm the fuel fill cap is installed. If it is, loosen it, then retighten it until it clicks at least once. The message should go off after several days of normal driving once you tighten or replace the fuel fill cap. To scroll to another display, press the select/reset knob.

OnTouringmodels The multi-information display in the instrument panel displays various information and messages when the ignition switch is in the ON (II) position. Some of the messages help you operate your vehicle more comfortably. Others help to keep you aware of the periodic maintenance your vehicle needs for continued trouble-free driving.

You can also customize some vehicle control settings to your liking with the multi-information display and the two buttons on the steering wheel (see page

101

).

When you unlock and open the driver’s door with the remote transmitter, the display shows ‘‘Welcome DRIVER 1’’ or ‘‘Welcome DRIVER 2’’ depending on which remote transmitter you use. The driver’s ‘‘ID’’ is detected by the transmitter. For more information about driver’s ‘‘ID’’, see page

Messages in the trip computer include:

INST. MPG (U.S. models)/ INST.L/100 km (Canadian models): Your vehicle’s instant fuel economy.

When you turn off the engine, INST. MPG or INST. L/100 km is also reset.

RANGE: The estimated distance you can travel on the fuel remaining in the tank. This distance is estimated from the fuel economy you received over the last several miles, so it will vary with changes in speed, traffic, etc.

When the battery is disconnected, or you refuel, RANGE is also reset.

AVERAGE SPEED: The average speed you are traveling.

When you reset Trip A, AVERAGE SPEED is also reset.

AVERAGE FUEL A/B: This shows your vehicle’s average fuel economy in mpg (U.S. models) or /100 km (Canadian models) since you last reset Trip A or Trip B. When you select Trip B in the lower segment by pressing the SEL/RESET button on the steering wheel, or the select/reset knob on the instrument panel, AVERAGE FUEL B appears on the upper segment.

Outside Temperature Display

OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DISPLAY

This shows the outside temperature in Fahrenheit (U.S. models), or in Celsius (Canadian models).

The temperature sensor is in the front bumper. The temperature reading can be affected by heat reflection from the road surface, engine heat, and the exhaust from surrounding traffic. This can cause an incorrect temperature reading when your vehicle speed is under 19 mph (30 km/h). When you start your trip, the sensor is not fully acclimatized, therefore it may take several minutes until the proper temperature is displayed.

In certain weather conditions, temperature readings near freezing (32°F, 0°C) could mean that ice is forming on the road surface.

You can adjust the outside temperature on the multi- information display (see page

110

).

Multi-Information Display

System Messages If there is a problem with your vehicle, for example the engine oil level is low or a door is not fully closed, the multi-information display will show you the problem. It does this by interrupting the current display with one or more messages.

Here is a list of messages shown on the multi-information display:
