Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge shows the approximate amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
The gauge does not return to “E” even though the ignition switch is in the
“ACC” or “LOCK” position.
The gauge may move slightly during braking, turning or acceleration dueto fuel level movement in the tank.
Temperature gauge
CAUTION
If the pointer exceeds the normal operating range, safely stop the
vehicle as soon as possible.
See “ In case of emergency ” in chapter 9.
HB2012BB
The temperature gauge shows engine coolant temperature when the
ignition switch is in the “ON” position.
The coolant temperature will vary in accordance with the outside temper-
ature and driving conditions.
We recommend that you drive moderately until the pointer of the temper-
ature gauge reaches near the middle of the range. Engine operation is
optimum with the engine coolant at this temperature range and high rev-

cause the mirror to read inaccurately. You will know that this has oc-
curred if your compass begins to read in only limited directions.
Should you encounter this situation, return to step one of the above
procedure and recalibrate the mirror. n Compass zone adjustment

word “ZONE” will briefly appear and then the zone number will be dis-
