When a route is planned the Head-Up Display (HUD) will display information when the vehicle is approaching a turn. This information displays when the vehicle is 0.5 mi. (.80 km) away from a turn in residential areas and 2.0 mi. or 2.0 km away from a turn on freeways.


Object Number: 1795026  Size: B2
  1. Directional Arrow -- Displays the direction of the next turn.

  2. Distance Bar -- This will decrease as the vehicle approaches the turn.

  3. Street Name Line -- Displays the name of the street that you will be turning on.

  4. Mile/Kilometer Scale -- Indicates the scale of the distance bar. The scale is 0.5 mi. (.80 km) in residential areas and 2.0 mi. or 2.0 km on freeways. This value changes as you approach the turn.

After completing a turn, the HUD displays the name and distance of the next street you are turning on for 10 seconds.

When HUD is displaying the turn-by-turn guidance information, the vehicle's shift lever gear does not display in the HUD. The gear displays on the Driver Information Center (DIC) screen. Once the destination has been reached or guidance is cancelled, the HUD displays the gear information again. See Head-Up Display (HUD) in the Index of your vehicle's owner manual for more information.
