Engine Coolant Temperature
Gauge
WARNING
Never remove the coolant reservoir
cap when the engine is running or
hot.
At normal operating temperature, the
engine coolant temperature will be in the
middle range of the gauge. If the engine
coolant temperature exceeds the normal
range, the gauge will be highlighted. Stop
your vehicle as soon as safely possible,
switch off the engine and let it cool.
Engine Oil Temperature Gauge
If the engine oil temperature exceeds the
normal range, the engine is overheating.
Reduce engine speed as soon as safely
possible to allow the engine to cool. If you
continue to operate the engine at high
engine speeds, the engine speed reduces
automatically to prevent engine damage.
Engine Oil Pressure Gauge
Oil pressure varies with engine speed. The
pressure rises as engine speed rises and
drops as engine speed drops.

range of the gauge, a warning lamp
illuminates and a message appears in the
information display. Stop your vehicle as
soon as it is safe to do so and switch the
engine off. Check the engine oil level.
