INSPECT T-BELT WARNING
T-BELT mode display
Turn the ODO/TRIP display screen to ODO, and turn the ignition switch off.
While pressing the trip switch, turn the ignition switch to ON and hold it for 5 seconds.
Release the trip switch, then press the trip switch again within 5 seconds.
Transfer to T-BELT mode, and the following initial setting value is displayed.
| km |
|---|
| 15 (0,000 km) |
| mile |
|---|
| 9 (0,000 mile) |
Tech Tips
If the meter has been replaced before, the displayed value might not be the initial setting value.
Rewriting replacement setting value.
Press the trip switch and rewrite the replacement setting value.
| Condition | Setting Value |
|---|---|
| When a belt is replaced | km: 15 (0,000 km) mile: 9 (0,000 mile) |
| When a meter is replaced | km: (15 (0,000 km)) - (kilometrage when a meter is replaced)) mile: (9 (0,000 mile)) - (mileage when the meter is replaced)) |
Tech Tips
When pressing the trip switch, the displayed value is changed to 1 (0,000 km) / 1 (0,000 mile) for the first time and after this, increases in increments of 1 (0,000 km) / 1 (0,000 mile) up to 20 (0,000 km) / 20 (0,000 mile). If switch operation is not performed for more than 30 seconds, the setting value will not be changed, the display screen turns to "ODO", and the mode returns to the normal mode.
T-BELT mode completion
Note
If T-BELT mode is completed, even though belt replacement or meter replacement has not been performed, the T-BELT warning is reset.
After setting the replacement setting value, hold the trip switch on for more than 5 seconds, then release the trip switch.
Check that the display has changed to "ODO" and warning light has gone off.
INSPECT OIL MAINTENANCE INDICATOR RESETTING PROCEDURE (w/ Oil Maintenance Indicator)
Note
After an engine oil and filter change, even though the system has been reset, the warning light does not go out, or comes on again soon.
Resetting the system
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Remove the reset switch cover from the combination meter.
Push the reset switch for at least one second with a thin object such as a pen tip.
The engine oil change reminder light will go out.
Note
Reset the system only after an engine oil and filter change. If you reset the system at any other time, it cannot inform you of the correct time to change oil and oil filter.
Tech Tips
The system must also be reset if an engine oil and filter change is performed before the light comes on. In this case, when you push the reset switch, the light will come on. When you stop pressing, the light will go out.
If you push the switch for too short a time, the engine oil change reminder light may not go out. If this happens, reset the above procedure.
