Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tempera-
ture. Any reading within the normal range indicates that
the engine cooling system is operating satisfactorily.
The gauge pointer will likely indicate a higher tempera-
ture 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 operating range.
In the normal use of the car, the digital scale may move in
different positions.
Instrument Cluster With EVIC/DID
The indicator light will illuminate, a message will dis-
play, and a chime will sound to indicate an excessive rise
in the temperature of the engine coolant.
In the case of excessive rises in the temperature of the
engine coolant, the engine may shut down. See an
authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system could
damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge reads
“H” pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle
with the air conditioner turned off until the pointer
drops back into the normal range. If the pointer
remains on the “H” and you hear continuous chimes,
turn the engine off immediately and call an autho-
rized dealer for service.

•Unstored Messages
This message type is displayed indefinitely or until the
condition that activated the message is cleared. Examples
of this message type are#Turn Signal On#(if a turn signal
is left on) and#Lights On#(if driver leaves the vehicle).
•Unstored Messages Until RUN
These messages deal primarily with the Remote Start
feature. This message type is displayed until the ignition
is in the MAR/RUN state. Examples of this message type
are#Remote Start Aborted - Door Ajar#and#Press Brake
Pedal and Push Button to Start.#
•Five Second Unstored Messages
When the appropriate conditions occur, this type of
message takes control of the main display area for five
seconds and then returns to the previous screen. Ex-
amples of this message type are#Memory System Un-
available - Not in Park#and#Automatic High Beams On.#
Telltales On The EVIC/DID Instrument Cluster
Low Brake Fluid
•What Does It Mean
The light comes on when the brake fluid
level in the reservoir drops below the mini-
mum level, due to a possible loss of liquid
from the circuit.
•What To Do
Restore the brake fluid level, and then
check that the indicator light goes off.
If the light remains on, see an authorized dealer.

NOTE:
•If the Air Bag Warning Lightdoes not illuminate
when placing the ignition in MAR/RUN, or stays
on during MAR/RUN (together with the message
displayed), it is possible that there is a fault in
restraint systems. In this case, the air bag or the
pretensioners might not deploy in the event of an
accident or, in a more limited number of cases,
deploy incorrectly. Before continuing, please contact
an authorized dealer for the immediate service of
the system.
•The failure of the Air Bag Warning Lightis de-
clared by the illumination of the iconin the
instrument cluster display. In this case, the Air Bag
Warning Light may not report any anomalies of the
restraint systems. Before continuing, please contact
your authorized dealer for the immediate service of
the system.
Seat Belt Reminder
•What Does It Mean
The light comes on as a steady light with the
car stopped as a driver seat belt reminder.
•What To Do
For the permanent deactivation of the horn (buzzer)
system S. B. R. (Seat Belt Reminder), contact your
authorized dealer. It is possible to reactivate the
system through the Setup Menu.
Engine Temperature Warning
•What Does It Mean
By placing the ignition in MAR/RUN posi-
tion, the indicator light illuminates but should
go out after a few seconds.
The indicator light (or on some vehicles the icon on
the display) illuminates when the engine is over-
heated. The dedicated message shows in the display.
