September 30: LEMON manuals is back up on a temporary server! Slowness is possible
Instrument Panel: Notes
- By modularizing the panel with the steering support beam, a sufficient rigidity is obtained, its quality is stabilized, and maintainability is improved.
- By tilting the center panel toward the driver, its operability and visibility is improved.
- There is no longer a split line between the passenger's airbag module lid and the instrument panel, contributing to a better appearance.
- Taking recycling reasons into account, PP resin is used for the main body. The entire upper part of the instrument panel is covered with urethane foam material with a soft surface skin. This material feels soft while it also contributes to protect passengers.
- An insulator is installed to the backside of the instrument panel. The insulator absorbs noise from the engine room and contributes to improve the quietness in the cabin.
- The panel is upholstered as far as the leg area of front passenger to improve the feel of material.
