Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the
approximate number of engine revo-
lutions per minute (rpm).
Use the tachometer to find the cor-
rect shift points and to prevent lug-
ging and/or over-revving the engine.
Do not operate the engine when
the tachometer pointer is in the
RED ZONE. This may cause severe
engine damage.
Engine Coolant TemperatureGauge
This gauge indicates the tempera-
ture of the engine coolant when the
engine is running.
If the gauge pointer moves out of
the normal range area, toward the
“H” position, it indicates overheat-
ing of the engine that may damage
the engine.
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. If your vehicle
is overheated, refer to “If the Engine
Overheats” in the chapter 6.

Fuel Gauge
This gauge indicates the approxi-
mate amount of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank.
Information
• The fuel tank capacity is indicatedin chapter 8.
• The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is
nearly empty.
• On slopes or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the fuel fluctua-
tion in the tank.
Avoid driving with the extremely
low amount of fuel. Running out of
fuel could cause the engine to
misfire, damaging the catalytic
converter.
