METERS AND GAUGES
Instruments and controls2-3

TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revo-
lutions per minute (rpm) .
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine coolant tempera-
ture. The engine coolant temperature is within the
normal range
1when the gauge needle points
within the zone shown in the illustration.
The engine coolant temperature varies with the
outside air temperature and driving conditions.
CAUTION
If the gauge indicates coolant tempera-
ture near the hot (H) end of the normal
range, reduce vehicle speed to decrease
temperature. If the gauge is over the nor-
mal range, stop the vehicle as soon as
safely possible. If the engine is over-
heated, continued operation of the vehicle
may seriously damage the engine. For ad-
ditional information, refer to “If your ve-
hicle overheats” in the “In case of emer-
gency” section of this manual for
immediate action required.

Operating tips
●Keep the windows closed while the air con-
ditioner is in operation.
● After parking in the sun, drive for 2 or 3 min-
utes with the windows open to vent hot air
from the passenger compartment. Then,
close the windows. This allows the air con-
ditioner to cool the interior more quickly.
● The air conditioning system should be
operated for approximately 10 minutes
at least once a month. This helps pre-
vent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
● A visible mist may be seen coming from the
ventilators in hot, humid conditions as the air
is cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a
malfunction.
● If the engine coolant temperature
gauge indicates engine coolant tem-
perature over the normal range, turn
the air conditioner off. For additional
information, refer to “If your vehicle
overheats” in the “In case of emer-
gency” section of this manual.
AIR FLOW CHARTS
The following charts show the button and dial
positions for MAXIMUM AND QUICK heating,
cooling or defrosting. For additional information
on heating and cooling, refer to “Heater and air
conditioner” in this section. The air recircula-
tion (
) mode should always be OFF for
heating and defrosting.

Air flow control
Press the air flow control buttons to manually
control air flow and select the air outlet:
— Air flows from center and sidevents.
— Air flows from center and sidevents and front floor outlets.
— Air flows mainly from the frontfloor outlets and the vents located
beneath the driver’s and front
passenger’s seat.
— Air flows from defroster and flooroutlets.
— Air flows from defroster outlets.For additional information, refer to “Rear seat air
conditioner” in this section.
To turn system off
Press the(system OFF) button.
OPERATING TIPS
●When the engine coolant temperature and
outside air temperature are low, the air flow
from the foot outlets may not operate for a
maximum of 150 seconds. However, this is
not a malfunction. After the coolant tempera-
ture warms up, air flow from the foot outlets
will operate normally. The sunload sensor, located on the top of the
instrument panel on the driver’s side
1, helps
the system maintain a constant temperature. Do
not put anything on or around this sensor.
REAR SEAT AIR CONDITIONER
To operate the rear air conditioner, the engine
must be running.
If the rear seat fan control dial is set to (0) , the air
conditioner is turned off. If it is set to any of the fan
speed positions, air is discharged from the rear
vents at the corresponding speed.

2. Rear temperature control dial
CONTROLS
Fan control dial
The fan control dial turns the rear vent fan on and
off and controls fan speed.
Temperature control dial
The temperature control dial adjusts the tem-
perature and airflow of the outlet air.
Turn the dial to the left for cooler air or to the right
for warmer air.
