side of the vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
• Round tachometer: Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per minute. Driving with
your tachometer pointer continuously at the top of the scale may damage the engine.
During SelectShift Automatic ™ transmission (SST) use, the currently selected gear
