Clock Unit: General

The clock unit display can be switched to indicate outside air temperature, fuel efficiency, remaining travel distance or continuous driving time, by operating a button. The DISP button is used for switching the display, and the indicated information switches in the following sequence each time the button is pressed: outside temperature → fuel efficiency at the instant → average fuel efficiency → remaining travel distance → continuous driving time These data are sent from the combination meter by means of digital communication. This clock unit is provided with a function to automatically display a failure; if the accessory power circuit is open it displays "Acc", and if the ignition power circuit is open it displays "ign". If an abnormality is detected in the communication between the combination meter and clock unit or in the received data, "Err" is displayed. If no data can be received, "Err" will always be displayed even when the indication is switched with the DISP button, but when only a specific data is not received, "Err" will be displayed only when the indication is switched to display that data. For example, if outside temperature data is not received "Err" will be displayed only when the thermometer feature is selected, and other indications such as the fuel efficiency meter will be displayed normally.
