Operate the center display with the ignition switch on.

When the ignition switch is set at ON, the last previously used mode displayed just before the ignition switch is turned off will appear.

If the electrical power source has been disconnected from the center display, the display will automatically be set to the initial mode.

When the instrument panel lights are turned on, the brightness of the display may be reduced.

—Outside temperature display —Cruise information display

The outside temperature value is updated every 1 second.

The displayed temperature ranges from

-30C (- 22F) up to 50C (122F). If an abnormality exists in the connection

of the outside air temperature sensor, “- - ”, “F” or “E” will appear on the display. If “- -”, “F” or “E” appears on the display, contact your Toyota dealer.

There may be a case that “- -”, “F” or “E” appears momentarily when the ignition switch is quickly set to ON. It is normal if it goes out soon.

1. Driving range (“FUEL RANGE”)

The distance the vehicle can travel with the remaining fuel is calculated and displayed based on the quantity of remaining fuel and past fuel consumption.

The displayed value is updated every 10 seconds.

Every time you refuel the vehicle, the driving range calculation is automatically reset.

240

The actual driving range varies with driving habits and road conditions. If fuel consumption is good, the driving range will be longer than indicated. If fuel consumption is poor, the driving range will be shorter than indicated.

2. Elapsed time (“TRIP TIME”)

The elapsed time after the engine starts is displayed.

When the engine is started, driving time is counted from 0:00. Up to 99:59 (99 hours, 59 minutes) can be displayed. When the driving time exceeds 99:59, the counter returns to 0:00.

The calculation is reset when the ignition switch is turned off.

3. Average fuel consumption after refueling (“AVERAGE”)

Average fuel consumption after refueling is calculated and displayed based on total driving distance and total fuel consumption with the engine running.

The displayed value is updated every 10 seconds.

Every time you refuel the vehicle, the average fuel consumption after refueling calculation is automatically reset.

Clock Compass

When the instrument panel lights are turned on, the brightness of the time indication may be reduced.

To reset the hour: Push the “H” button. To reset the minutes: Push the “M” button.

If quick adjustment to a full hour is desired, push the “:00” button.

For example, if the “:00” button is depressed when the time is between 1:01—1:29, the time will change to 1:00. If the time is between 1:30—1:59, the time will change to 2:00.

The ignition switch must be set at ON. If the electrical power source has been

disconnected from the clock, the time display will automatically be set to 1:00 (one o’clock).

The direction is indicated on the inside rear view mirror.

If the ignition switch was turned off with the system on, the system will automatically turn back on when the ignition switch is turned on.

 The vehicle is stopped immediately af-

ter turning.

 The compass does not adjust while the

vehicle is stopped.

 The ignition switch is turned off imme-

diately after turning.

 The vehicle is on an inclined surface.

 The vehicle is in a place where the

earth’s magnetic field is subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields (underground parking, under a steel tower, between buildings, roof parking, near a crossing, near a large vehicle, etc.).

 The vehicle is magnetized. (There is a

magnet or a metal object on or near the inside rear view mirror.)

 The battery has been disconnected.

If your vehicle is out of the set zone, refer to “CALIBRATING THE COMPASS” below to set the zone number.

If the deviation is small, the compass works to calibrate the direction automatically while the vehicle is in motion.

For additional precision or for complete calibrating, see “CALIBRATING THE COMPASS” below.

The compass sensor is in the inside rear view mirror.

NOTICE

Do not put magnets or a metal object on or near the inside rear view mirror of the vehicle. Doing this may cause malfunction of the compass sensor.

CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (deviation calibration)

The direction display on the compass deviates from the true direction determined by the earth’s magnetic field. The angle of deviation varies according to the geographic position of the vehicle.

To adjust this deviation, stop the vehicle, then push and hold the “ the zone number appears on the display. Then push the “ the following map to select the number of

CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (circling calibration)

Sometimes the direction display on the compass may not change after a turn. To rectify this, stop the vehicle and push and

hold the “ the display.

If “C” appears on the display because of a drastic change in the magnetic field, perform circling calibration.

’05 AVALON_U (L/O 0501)

Drive the vehicle in a circle at 8 km/h (5 mph) or less. If there is not enough space to drive in a circle, drive around the block.

After driving 1 to 3 circles in the above method, calibration is completed when the direction is shown on the display.

If calibration cannot be performed because of the magnetized vehicle etc., take your vehicle to Toyota dealer.

Perform circling calibration just after you have purchased your Toyota. And then always perform circling calibration after the battery has been removed, replaced or disconnected.

 Do not perform circling calibration of

the compass in a place where the earth’s magnetic field is subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields (underground parking, under a steel tower, between buildings, roof parking, near a crossing, near a large vehicle, etc.).

 During calibration, do not operate elec-

tric systems (moon roof, power windows, etc.) as they may interfere with the calibration.

245

2005 AVALON from Jan. ’05 Prod. (OM41408U)

CAUTION

 When doing the circling calibration,

be sure to secure a wide space, and watch out for people and vehicles in the neighborhood. Do not violate any local traffic rules while performing circling calibration.

 Do not adjust the display while the

vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust the display only when the vehicle is stopped.
