OD/TRIP - The OD/TRIP button lets you switch the display between the permanent odometer mileage and the trip odometer mileage. Fuel computer functions Fuel and distance computer display OUTSIDE TEMP This feature lets you display the temperature of the air outside of your vehicle. The fuel and distance computer is designed to prevent inaccurate temperature display readings. For example, a sudden temperature change (such as driving out of a cool garage on a warm day), may show outside temperature display readings which are lower than expected. The accurate temperature will be displayed after the vehicle has reached the outside temperature and is driven at speeds of 30 mph (48 km/h) or greater. In the event of a decrease in the outside air temperature, there will be no delay in an accurate temperature display. 26
