SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER
This vehicle is equipped with a speedom-
eter and odometer. The speedometer is
located on the right side of the meter clus-
ter. The odometer is located in the vehicle
information display to the lef t of the speed-
ometer and can be accessed with the ve-
hicle in the ON position.

METERS AND GAUGES
2-6Instruments and controls

TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in
revolutions per minute (rpm). Do not rev
the engine into the red zone
O1.
CAUTION
When engine speed approaches the
red zone, reduce engine speed. Operat-
ing the engine in the red zone may
cause serious engine damage.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature. The engine coolant tempera-
ture is within the normal range
O1when
the gauge needle points within the zone
shown in the illustration.
The engine coolant temperature varies
with the outside air temperature and driv-
ing conditions.
CAUTION
If the gauge indicates coolant tem-
perature near the hot (H) end of the
normal range, reduce vehicle speed to
decrease temperature. If the gauge is
over the normal range, stop the vehicle
as soon as safely possible. If the engine
is overheated, continued operation of
the vehicle may seriously damage the
engine. For additional information, see
“If your vehicle overheats” (P. 6-12) for
immediate action required.

Maintenance
The maintenance menu allows the user to set reminders for various vehicle maintenance items.
Some menu items shown below may not be equipped on your vehicle.
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a substitute for regular tire checks, including tire pressure checks. For additional informa-
tion, see “Changing wheels and tires” (P. 8-43). Many factors including tire inflation, alignment, driving habits and road conditions
affect tire wear and when tires should be replaced. Setting the tire replacement indicator for a certain driving distance does not
mean your tires will last that long. Use the tire replacement indicator as a guide only and always perform regular tire checks.
Failure to perform regular tire checks, including tire pressure checks could result in tire failure. Serious vehicle damage could
occur and may lead to a collision, which could result in serious personal injury or death.
Menu item Explanation
Maintenance Allows user to cycle through various maintenance items and set reminders to perform maintenance at spe-
cific intervals.
Oil and Filter Allows user to set an oil and filter reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.
Air Filter Allows user to set an air filter reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.
Tire Allows user to set a tire reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.
Brake Pad Allows user to set a brake pad reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.
Brake Fluid Allows user to set a brake fluid reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.
Battery Allows user to set a battery reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.
Transmission Fluid Allows user to set a transmission fluid reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.
Engine Coolant Allows user to set an engine coolant reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.
Spark Plug Allows user to set a spark plug reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.
Other Allows user to set a reminder, other than for the maintenance items listed above, at a specific interval or re-
set the current one.
Instruments and controls2-29

When theorpositions are se-
lected, the air conditioner automatically
turns on if the outside temperature is more
than 36°F (2°C). The air conditioning system
will continue to operate until the
fan
speed control dial is turned to OFF, the air
conditioner is turned OFF, or the vehicle is
shut off. If a position other than the
front defrost air flow button is selected, the
A/C compressor will not turn off even if the
user had selected A/C off prior to entering
defrost. In
front defrost orfoot
defrost the indicator light on the A/C but-
ton will not turn on if the user had selected
A/C off. Turning off the air conditioning via
the A/C button is not allowed in this mode.
If the A/C button indicator was on when
entering this mode, and the A/C button is
selected in this mode, the A/C button indi-
cator will turn off, but the A/C compressor
will still be automatically enabled. This de-
humidifies the air which helps defog the
windshield. The
mode automatically
turns off, allowing outside air to be drawn
into the passenger compartment to fur-
ther improve the defogging performance.
3. Turn the temperature control dial to the desired position.
Operating tips
• Keep the windows closed while the airconditioner is in operation.
• Af ter parking in the sun, drive for 2 or 3 minutes with the windows open to vent
hot air from the passenger compart-
ment. Then, close the windows. This al-
lows the air conditioner to cool the inte-
rior 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, see “If your vehicle over-
heats” (P. 6-12).
AIR FLOW CHARTS
The following charts show the button and
dial positions for MAXIMUM AND QUICK
heating, cooling or defrosting. For addi-
tional information on heating and cooling,
see “Heater and air conditioner (manual)”
(P. 4-29). The air recirculation (
) but-
ton should always be in the OFF position
for heating and defrosting.

Rear window and/or outside
mirror (if so equipped) defroster
switch
For additional information, see “Rear win-
dow and/or outside mirror (if so equipped)
defroster switch” (P. 2-42).
OPERATING TIPS
The sunload sensor (if so equipped)O1, lo-
cated on the top center of the instrument
panel, helps the system maintain a con-
stant temperature. Do not put anything on
or around this sensor.
•
When the climate system is in automatic
operation and the engine coolant tem-
perature and outside air temperature are
low, the air flow outlet may default to de-
froster mode for a maximum of 2 minutes
30 seconds. This is not a malfunction. Af ter
the engine coolant temperature warms up,
the air flow outlet will return to foot mode
and operation will continue normally.
• When the outside and interior cabin tem- peratures are moderate to high, the in-
take setting may default to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. You may no-
tice air flow from the foot mode, bi-level
mode, or side demist vent outlets for a
maximum of 15 seconds. This may occur
when previous climate setting was sys-
tem off. This is not a malfunction. Af ter
the initial warm air is expelled, the intake
will return to automatic control, air flow
outlet will return to previous settings, and
operation will continue normally. To exit,
press any climate control button.
• Keep the windows closed while the air conditioner is in operation.
