- Pressing the DISP button raises the number. The trip button lowers it.

Menu screen selection lets you add screens to the initial five in the animated home screen, such as Eco Savings Record, showing either the fuel cost or savings for the past four months, and for the same month one year ago, fuel consumption average for every five minutes, and up to 30 minutes, and past fuel economy records by rank, or by month.
You can also turn the multi-information display off, except for the odometer, trip meter, average fuel consumption, and clock. Also, whenever you turn the vehicle off, “See you” will appear in the display, followed by a summary of the information from that trip.
