  2. SYSTEM CONTROL


    1. Front Seat Belt Warning


      1. The occupant detection sensor, which is enclosed in the seat cushion of the front passenger seat, is used to detect whether or not the front passenger seat is occupied.

      2. The front seat belt warning blinks each front seat belt warning light individually when the driver does not fasten the driver seat belt or the front passenger does not fasten the front passenger seat belt.

      3. The front seat belt warning buzzer sounds when the vehicle speed reaches approximately 20 km/h (12.4 mph) or more while the front seat belt warning light is blinking. If the seat belt is not then fastened after approximately 30 seconds have elapsed since the buzzer sounded, the front seat belt warning buzzer sounds more loudly than normal for approximately 90 seconds.

        A01J86TE02

    2. Rear Seat Belt Warning


      1. When the rear seat seat belts are unfastened, seat belt unfastened symbols will be displayed in the rear seat seat belt indicator of the multi-information display.

      2. The rear seat belt warning buzzer sounds when the vehicle speed reaches approximately 20 km/h (12.4 mph). If the seat belt is not then fastened after approximately 30 seconds have elapsed since the buzzer sounded, the rear seat belt warning buzzer sounds more loudly than normal for approximate 90 seconds.

        A01J89WE01

    7. Eco Driving Indicator Light


      1. When the power management control ECU and meter ECU determine, using information such as vehicle speed, vehicle power, shift position and drive mode, that the vehicle is being driven Eco-friendly, they turn on Eco Driving Indicator Light. The operating diagram of Eco Driving Indicator Light function is as follows:

        A01J84ME06

    8. Dimming Mode Display


      1. The combination meter illumination brightness can be adjusted to one of 4 levels by pressing the combination meter dimming mode switch when the taillights are turned on.

      2. The brightness of the headup display automatically changes in response to the ambient light level. However, it can be adjusted to one of 5 levels by pressing the HUD dimming mode switch.

        A01J80GE01

        Tech Tips

        The brightness of the headup display can be increased to 200% by pressing and holding the up side of the HUD dimming mode switch when it is at the brightness ratio of 100%. To cancel, briefly press the down side of the switch. The brightness will return to the level it was.

  4. CONSTRUCTION


    1. Combination Meter


      1. A reflective display method is used to display the speedometer, fuel gauge, instantaneous fuel consumption and shift position. Using the vacuum fluorescent display (VFD), the light emitted by the vacuum fluorescent display panel is reflected in the reflective glass, allowing a virtual image to be visible to the driver's eyes.

      2. Light emitted in the display area is transmitted through the reflective glass, allowing the warning lights, indicator lights, and information on the multi-information display to be visible to the driver's eyes.

    2. Touch Tracer Display


      1. A touch sensor is provided on the following frequently used switches such as the multi-information display mode switch, TRIP/ODO mode switch, audio and air conditioning switches. The touch tracer display is displayed when any of the switches is touched by the driver's finger, and the switch is activated when pressed.

    3. Headup Display


      1. The Headup display projects the image from the dot Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD), built into the Headup display unit (combination meter mirror ECU), in a position approximately 2 m (6.6 ft) forward of the driver using a concave mirror and the windshield, in order to support the driver with various information.

      2. By changing the angle of the concave mirror, the position of the image displayed can be adjusted.

    4. Windshield Glass for Headup Display


      1. Windshield glass without a combiner treatment is used for the Headup display.

      2. This glass has a wedge-shaped inner film. This film, with its varying thickness, is located between the outer and inner layers of glass.

      3. The light that strikes the glass is reflected by the inner surface of the inner glass, and also by the inner side of the outer surface of outer layer of glass. With a conventional windshield, the light reflected from these 2 surfaces diverges due to the thickness of the glass, resulting in a double image.

      4. The film uses its wedge shape to eliminate the reflection angle difference between the outer glass and inner glass. This recombines the reflected light and eliminates the double image.

      5. Thus, the reflected light from the Headup display unit is recognized by the driver as a single display image.

        *a The combiner makes the light reflected by the inner glass brighter, however, a double image is caused by a divergence of the reflected light. *b Reflected light is recombined and a double image is prevented.
