Coolant temperature gauge With the key in the “ON” position, the
coolant temperature gauge indicates
the temperature of the coolant. The
coolant temperature varies with chang-
es in the weather and engine load. If
the needle reaches or enters the red
zone, stop the vehicle and let the en-
gine cool. (See page 6-29.)CAUTION:
ECA10020
Do not operate the engine if it isoverheated.

Multi-function display The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:

an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)


two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero, the time passed
since the tripmeters were set to ze-
ro, and the average speed traveled
during this time)


a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the fuel level warning light came
on)


a clock


an ambient temperature display


an oil change indicator (which
comes on when the engine oil
should be changed)
NOTE:

For the UK, the distance traveled
is displayed in miles and the tem-
perature reading is displayed in °F.


For other countries, the distance
traveled is displayed in kilometers
and the temperature reading is dis-played in °C.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “MODE” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “Total” and the tripmeter modes
“Trip” in the following order:
Total → Trip 1 → Trip 2 → Trip/fuel →
