Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
With the starter switch in the "ON" position,
this gauge indicates the temperature of the
engine coolant. "C" means cold while "H"
means hot. If the engine overheats, the
engine overheat warning light comes on
(standard model) or the warning message
is indicated (model with MID) and a
warning buzzer sounds. During operation,
the needle should stay in the safety zone.

ADVICE
If the needle goes up above the
upper limit of the safety zone and
enters the "H" zone while you
are driving, the engine is likely to
overheat. Immediately pull safely off
the road out of the way of any traffic
and take necessary actions to deal
with engine overheating.
If the needle nears the "H" zone but
is still in the safety zone, this is not
a problem. But, check the engine
coolant level in the reserve tank.
Add engine coolant up as required.
The engine can seize up if it is
stopped immediately after driving.
Take appropriate actions for engine
overheating.
