METER / GAUGE SYSTEM GENERAL GENERAL

  1. OUTLINE

    1. The combination meter assembly is mounted on the steering column. Thus the position of the combination meter assembly adjusts unison with the adjustment of the steering column. This contributes to enhancing the visibility of the combination meter assembly.

    2. A segment Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) is used for the multi-information display.

    3. 3 types of segment LCD displays are provided depending on the engine or transaxle.

    4. The combination meter assembly has a forward switch knob and back switch knob to change multi-information display contents (forward or backward). This makes it less troublesome for the driver to change the multi-information display contents.

    5. A segment type tachometer is available as optional equipment.

    6. The combination meter assembly has a built-in meter ECU and buzzer.
