1. Speedometer•Indicates the speed of the car
2. Fuel Level Gauge •The fuel gauge in the EVIC indicates the amount of
fuel left in the tank.
• The light comes on, together with a chime and the
display of a message in the EVIC, when the gas tank
has 1.5 to 2 gallons (5 to 7 liters) of fuel remaining.
3. EVIC Display •The vehicle can be equipped with multifunctional
EVIC which offers useful information to the driver.
• With the ignition in the STOP/OFF position (and the
key removed, for vehicles with mechanical key),
opening/closing of a door will activate the EVIC for
viewing, and display the total miles or kilometers in
the odometer. 4. Engine Coolant Temperature
•The temperature gauge in the EVIC displays the
temperature of the engine coolant and starts provid-
ing indications when the coolant temperature ex-
ceeds approximately 122° F. In the normal use of the
car, the temperature gauge can move in different
directions based on the use of the car. The light
comes on, together with a chime and the display of a
message in the EVIC, to indicate an excessive in-
crease in the temperature of the engine coolant. Stop
the engine and contact you approved automotive
dealer.
5. Tachometer •Indicates the engine RPM

performing the scheduled maintenance), refer to the
following procedure.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the MAR/RUN position.(do not start the engine.)
2. Fully push the accelerator pedal slowly, three times within 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the STOP/OFF position.
NOTE: If the indicator message illuminates when you
start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not
reset. If necessary, repeat this procedure.

•What To Do
In the case of normal gear: stop the car, shut off the
engine, and check that the level of coolant inside the
tank is not below the minimum (MIN). In this case,
wait for the engine to cool, then slowly and carefully
open the cap, fill with coolant, make sure it is
between the MIN and MAX marks. Also, check for
coolant leaks. If at the next start-up, the light (or the
icon on the display) would once again illuminate,
contact an authorized dealer.
In the case of heavy use of the car (e.g. In terms of
performance): slow down and, if the light stays on,
stop the car. For two or three minutes, keep the
engine running and slightly accelerate to help the
flow of coolant in the system. Then, turn the engine
off. Check for the correct level of coolant as described
above. Electric Park Brake Failure
•What Does It Mean
By placing the ignition in the MAR/RUN
position, the light (If Equipped) will illumi-
nate but should go out after a few seconds.
The light comes on when it detects a failure
in Electric Parking Brake.
The display shows the dedicated message.
• What To Do
Please contact your authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
NOTE: In this case, with heavy braking, the rear wheels
may lock early and increase the possibility of skidding.

proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-
inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to
tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel effi-
ciency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s
handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver ’s respon-
sibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if
under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is
not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indi-
cator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale
will flash for approximately one minute and then
remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists. When the malfunctionindicator is illuminated, the system may not be able
to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of rea-
sons, including the installation of replacement or
alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check
the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that
the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow
the TPMS to continue to function properly.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original
equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and
warning have been established for the tire size

equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system opera-
tion or sensor damage may result when using re-
placement equipment that is not of the same size,
type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause
sensor damage. Using aftermarket tire sealants may
cause the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
sensor to become inoperable. After using an after-
market tire sealant it is recommended that you take
your vehicle to an authorized dealership to have your
sensor function checked.
•What To Do
Do not drive your vehicle with one or more tires
deflated because the driveability of the car could be
compromised. Stop the car and avoid braking and
sharp turns. Contact your authorized dealer as soon
as possible. ESC System
•What Does It MeanIntervention ESC System: The light will start
to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and
the ESC system becomes active. If the “ESC
Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” be-
gins to flash during acceleration, ease up on
the accelerator and apply as little throttle as
possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the
prevailing road conditions.
Failure ESC System: If the light remains permanently
on after four second of the engine running, there may
be a failure in ESC system.
System Failure Hill Start Assist: The warning light comes
on to indicate a failure of the system Hill Start Assist.
• What To Do
Please contact your authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
