4. Electronic Speed Control Set Indicator Light — If
Equipped
This light will turn on when the electronic
speed control is set.
5. 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 digital gauge will likely indicate a higher tempera-
ture when driving in hot weather, or up mountain
grades. It should not be allowed to exceed the upper
limits of the normal operating range.NOTE:Driving with a hot engine cooling system could
damage your vehicle. The digital warning light may
switch on (together with a message on the display) to
indicate that the coolant temperature is too high; in this
case, stop the engine and contact a dedicated authorized
dealership.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or
others could be badly burned by steam or boiling
coolant. You may want to call an authorized dealer
for service if your vehicle overheats. If you decide to
look under the hood yourself, see “Maintaining Your
Vehicle.” Follow the warnings under the Cooling
System Pressure Cap paragraph.
6. Time Display

(RPM x 1000). Before the pointer reaches the red area,
ease up on the accelerator to prevent engine damage.
8. Transmission Gear Status
This area of the cluster displays the current gear selected.
9. Outside Temperature
This area of the cluster displays the outside temperature
in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius.
10. Fuel Gauge
The digital display shows the amount of fuel in the tank.
The switching on of the digital warning light indicates
that 1 – 1.3 gallons of fuel are left in the tank; in this
situation, refuel as soon as possible.Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty; any gaps
in fuel delivery could damage the catalytic converter.
11. Park/Headlight ON Indicator
This indicator will illuminate when the park
lights or headlights are turned on.
12. High Beam Indicator

13. Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is part of
an onboard diagnostic system, called OBD II, that
monitors engine and automatic transmission con-
trol systems. The light will illuminate when the key is in
the ON/RUN position, before engine start. If the bulb
4
UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 115

does not come on when turning the key from OFF to
ON/RUN, have the condition checked promptly.
Certain conditions, such as smart fuel door left open,
poor fuel quality, etc., may illuminate the MIL after
engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light
stays on through several of your typical driving cycles. In
most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and will
not require towing.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) on could cause damage to the engine
control system. It also could affect fuel economy and
driveability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss will soon occur.
Immediate service is required.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as referenced
above, can reach higher temperatures than in normal
operating conditions. This can cause a fire if you
drive slowly or park over flammable substances such
as dry plants, wood, cardboard, etc. This could result
in death or serious injury to the driver, occupants or
others.
