Instrument Cluster Descriptions
1. Speedometer
• Indicates vehicle speed.
2. Tachometer
• Indicates the engine speed in revolutions
per minute (RPM x 1000).
3. Temperature Gauge
• The temperature gauge shows engine
coolant temperature. Any reading within
the normal range indicates that the engine
cooling system is operating satisfactorily.
• The gauge pointer will likely indicate a
higher temperature when driving in hot
weather, up mountain grades, or when
towing a trailer. It should not be allowed to
exceed the upper limits of the normal op-
erating range.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous.
You or others could be badly burned by
steam or boiling coolant. You may want to call
an authorized dealer for service if your ve-
hicle overheats. If you decide to look under
the hood yourself, see “Maintaining Your
Vehicle”. Follow the warnings under the Cool-
ing System Pressure Cap paragraph.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system
could damage your vehicle. If the tempera-
ture gauge reads “H” pull over and stop the
vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air condi-
tioner turned off until the pointer drops back
into the normal range. If the pointer remains
on the “H”, turn the engine off immediately
and call an authorized dealer for service.
4. Fuel Gauge
• The pointer shows the level of fuel in the
fuel tank when the Keyless Push Button
Ignition is in the ON/RUN position.
•
The fuel pump symbol points to the
side of the vehicle where the fuel door is
located.
5. Instrument Cluster Display
• The instrument cluster display features a
driver-interactive display. Refer to “Instru-
ment Cluster Display” in “Getting To Know
Your Instrument Panel” for further informa-
tion.
NOTE:
The hard telltales will illuminate for a bulb check
when the ignition is first cycled.
