The temperature sensor is in the
front bumper. Therefore, 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
speed is under 19 mph (30 km/h).
NOTE: The temperature must be
stabilized before doing this
procedure.
If the outside temperature is
incorrectly displayed, you can adjust
it up 5°F in U.S. models ( 3°C in
Canadian models) warmer or cooler.
The sensor delays the display update
until it reaches the correct outside
temperature. This may take several
minutes.
If your fuel fill cap is loose or
missing, a ‘‘CHECK FUEL CAP’’
messageappearsastextinthe
odometer/trip meter display after
you start the engine. The message
appears from CHECK to FUEL, then
to CAP repeatedly.
When it reaches the desired value,
release the Select/Reset button. You
should see the new outside
temperature displayed.
In certain weather conditions,
temperature readings near freezing
(32°F, 0°C) could mean that ice is
forming on the road surface.
To adjust the outside temperature
display, press and hold the Select/
Reset button for 10 seconds. The
following sequence will appear for
one second each: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5,
4, 3, 2, 1, 0 (U.S.) or 0, 1, 2,
3, 3, 2, 1, 0 (Canada).
Turn the engine off and confirm the
fuel fill cap is installed. If it is, loosen
the cap, then retighten it until it
clicks at least once. When you
restart the engine, the message
appears again. To clear, press and
hold the Select/Reset button until
the message is replaced by the
odometer/trip meter display.
If the system still detects a loose or
missing fuel fill cap, the malfunction
indicator lamp (MIL) comes on.
Turn the engine off, and check or
retighten the fuel fill cap until it
clicks at least once. The MIL goes
out after 3 days of normal driving
once the cap is tightened or replaced.
If it does not go out, have your
dealer inspect the vehicle. For more
