1.Tachometer
• This gauge measures engine revolutions per minute
(RPM x 1000). Before the pointer reaches the red area,
ease up on the accelerator to prevent engine damage.
2. Temperature Gauge
• The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tem-
perature. Any reading within the normal range indi-
cates that the engine cooling system is operating
satisfactorily.
• The digital gauge will likely indicate a higher tem-
perature when driving in hot weather, or up moun-
tain grades. It should not be allowed to exceed the
upper limits of the normal operating range.WARNING!
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,” turn the engine off immediately
and call an authorized dealer for service.
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.

3.Speedometer
• Indicates vehicle speed.
4. Fuel Gauge
• The digital display shows the amount of fuel in the
tank.
• The switching on of the digital warning light indi-
cates 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 con-
verter.
5. Base and Sport Mode Gauge Displays
Depending on what options and trim level, your vehicle
may be equipped with two gauge displays available with
the push of the Sport Mode button. •“Base” — Instant Consumption Bargraph: This bar-
graph shows the instant fuel consumption, the style changes according to vehicle version while mini-
mum and maximum values change depending on
selected unit. The possible labels are:
• mpg
• Km/l
• l/100 km
• “Sport Mode” — Gas Pedal Percentage Gauge: This
gauge shows what percent the gas pedal is currently
depressed at.
NOTE: Different trips may have different values even if
the same driving style is maintained. Some factors that
may impact the calculated index value are:
• Traffic conditions
• Trip duration
• Temperature (engine and ambient)
