OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE
The temperature sensor is in the front bumper. The temperature reading can be affected by heat reflection from the road surface, engine heat, and the exhaust from surrounding traffic. This can cause an incorrect temperature reading when your vehicle speed is under 19 mph (30 km/h). When you start your trip, the sensor is not fully acclimatized, therefore it may take several minutes until the proper temperature is displayed.
This shows the outside Fahrenheit temperature in U.S. models, and Celsius temperature in Canadian models.
In certain weather conditions, temperature readings near freezing (32°F, 0°C) could mean that ice is forming on the road surface.

Keyless Memory Settings You can customize some vehicle control settings. To change the settings, the ignition switch must be in the ON (II) position, and the vehicle must be stopped with the transmission in Park (automatic) or with the parking brake set (manual).

If you turn the ignition switch to the ACCESSORY (I) or the LOCK (0) position, move the shift lever out of Park (automatic) or release the parking brake (manual), the display will change to the normal screen.

Models equipped with the keyless access system have an engine start/stop button instead of an ignition switch. VEHICLE OFF (LOCK) Mode is the equivalent of LOCK (0), ACCESSORY Mode is the equivalent of ACCESSORY (I), and ON Mode is the equivalent of ON (II). For more information, see pages

If you try to enter the customizing mode while the vehicle is moving, you will see a ‘‘MUST STOP AND SHIFT TO PARK TO CHANGE SETTINGS’’ (automatic) or ‘‘MUST STOP AND SET PARK BRAKE TO CHANGE SETTINGS’’ (manual) message and you cannot change the settings.
You can customize some vehicle control settings for ‘‘DRIVER 1’’ and ‘‘DRIVER 2’’ separately.
To have the driver’s ID detected, make sure the driver’s door is unlocked with a corresponding remote transmitter/keyless access remote.
