The illumination for the instrument cluster
lights up whenever you switch on the igni-
tion with the
vehicle headlights off . As
the daylight fades, the instrument cluster
illuminat ion likewise dims automatically
and will go out completely when the out-
side light is very low. This feature is meant
to remind you to switch on the headlights
when outside light conditions become
poor.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
The engine coolant gauge q page 10, fig. 3 CD
only works when the ign ition is on . To prevent
damage to your engine, please note the fol -
lowing important po ints:
Engine cold
If the needle is at or close to the bottom of
the gauge, the engine has not yet reac hed its
operating temperatu re. Avoid high engine
speeds, heavy engine loads, and heavy throt -
tle app lications.
Normal temperature
When the engine has reached its operating
temperature, the needle will
move to the mid-
dle of the gauge and remain t here . If the en-
gine is working hard at high outs ide tempera-
tures, the needle may
move higher on the
gauge. This is not a cause for conce rn as long
as the . warning light in the instrument
cluster disp lay does not illuminate. .,..
