by sending a signal from a sensor that is installed in each wheel. Press the trip computer setting B switch k to change the display to F (front) or R (rear). The tire pressure sensor will activate only when the vehicle is driven at speeds above 20 MPH (32 km/h). If the tire pressure signal cannot be received correctly, the display shows (----). The tire pressure indicator mode includes a low tire pressure warning feature. If the vehicle is being driven with very low tire pressure or a flat tire, the tire pressure indicator mode is automatically selected and the PSI indicator will blink in order to attract the driver's attention. Press the A trip computer mode switch k if you wish to return to the mode that was selected before the warning occurred. The PSI indicator will continue blinking until the tire pressure of each tire is properly adjusted. For additional information, see "Low tire pressure warning system" in the "5. Starting and driving" section and "Flat tire" in the "6. In case of emergency" section. Tire pressure shown in the display may rise or fall while driving depending on the driving conditions (heat, etc.) and/or the outside temperature. This does not indicate a system malfunction. WARNING The low tire pressure warning system is not a substitute for the regular tire pressure check. Be sure to check the tire pressure regularly and adjust it to the COLD tire pressure shown in the tire placard. second will add the figure by 100 rpm. If pressing for more than approximately 1 second, the figure will increase by 500 rpm. If the battery cable is disconnected, the set engine speed will be returned to the initial figure (6,600 rpm). Display priority If a low outside air temperature warning, low dte (distance to empty) range warning and low tire pressure warning occur simultaneously, other display modes switch automatically to the outside air temperature display. A When trip computer mode switch k is pressed, the display switches to the mode chosen before the warning display, but the ICY indicator will continue blinking. Up-shift indicator setting (rpm) (for manual transmission models) The up-shift indicator setting mode is used to set the desired engine speed (rpm) for the up-shift indicator (situated in the tachometer) to illuminate. When the engine speed approaches or reaches the set figure, the up-shift indicator will flash or illuminate to show the driver the timing for shifting into a higher gear. See "Driving the vehicle" in the "5. Starting and driving" section for the use of the up-shift indicator. When the up-shift indicator setting mode is selected, the rpm indicator blinks and the engine speed currently set is displayed. (The initial factory setting is 6,600 rpm.) The figure can be changed between 2,000 and 8,000 rpm by B pressing trip computer setting switch k . Pressing the switch for less than approximately 1 2-10 Instruments and controls
