Instrument Cluster Descriptions
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 tempera-
ture when driving in hot weather, or up mountain
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 (Continued) WARNING! (Continued)remains on the “H,” turn the engine off immediately
and call an authorized dealer for service.
• 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 “Servicing And
Maintenance.” Follow the warnings under the Cool-
ing 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 indicates
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.78 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

cator system. The “Change Engine Oil” message will
appear in the instrument cluster display for approximately
5 seconds after a single chime has sounded to indicate the
next scheduled oil change interval. The engine oil change
indicator system is duty cycle based, which means the
engine oil change interval may fluctuate, dependent upon
your personal driving style.
Unless reset, this message will continue to display each
time the ignition is placed in the MAR (ACC/ON/RUN)
position. To turn off the message temporarily, push and
release the MENU button. To reset the oil change indicator
system (after performing the scheduled maintenance), refer
to the following procedure.
1. Place the ignition in the MAR (ACC/ON/RUN) posi-
tion. (Do not start the engine.) 2. Fully push the accelerator pedal slowly, three times
within 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the 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.
TRIP COMPUTER
The Trip Computer is located in the instrument cluster. It
displays trip information such as: trip information, range,
fuel consumption, average speed, and travel time.
Trip Button
The TRIP button, located on the right steering column
stalk, can be used to display and to reset the previously
described values.
• A short button push displays the different values.
• A long button push resets the system and starts a new
trip.
