■ 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 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 display features.
