Tachometer
OQX049008L
The tachometer indicates the
approximate number of engine
revolutions per minute (RPM).
Use the tachometer to select the correct
shift points and to prevent lugging and/
or over-revving the engine.
NOTICE
Do not operate the engine within the
tachometer's RED ZONE. This may
cause severe engine damage.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
OQXI049107
This gauge indicates the temperature
of the engine coolant when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
NOTICE
If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the "H"
position, it indicates overheating that
may damage the engine.
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. If your engine
overheats, refer to "If the Engine
Overheats" in chapter 7.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap or
reservoir cap when the engine is hot.
The engine coolant is under pressure
and could severely burn. Wait until the
engine is cool before adding coolant to
the reservoir.
Fuel gauge
OQXI049109
This gauge indicates the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
Information
[ The fuel tank capacity is given in
chapter 2.
[ The fuel gauge is supplemented by
a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly
empty.
[ On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier than
usual due to the movement of fuel in
the tank.

This indicator displays which wiper speed
is selected using the wiper control.
Low fuel
This warning message is displayed if the
fuel tank is almost out of fuel.
When this message is displayed, the low
fuel level warning light in the cluster will
come on.
It is recommended to look for the nearest
fueling station and refuel as soon as
possible.
Add fuel as soon as possible.
Engine overheated
This warning message is displayed
when the engine coolant temperature
is above 248°F (120°C). This means that
the engine is overheated and may be
damaged.
If your vehicle has overheated, refer to
“If the Engine Overheats” in chapter 7.
Check headlight (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed if the
headlamps are not operating properly.
A headlamps bulb may need to be
replaced.
Information
Make sure to replace the burned out bulb
with a new one of the same wattage rating.

Highway Driving
Tires
Adjust the tire inflation, as specified.
Under-inflation may overheat or damage
the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged tires,
which may reduce traction or adversely
affect vehicle handling. This could lead
to sudden tire failure that may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
Information
Never over-inflate your tires above the
maximum inflation pressure, as specified
on your tires.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil
Driving at higher speeds on the highway
consumes more fuel and is less efficient
than driving at a slower, more moderate
speed. Maintain a moderate speed in
order to conserve fuel when driving on
the highway.
Be sure to check both the engine coolant
level and the engine oil before driving.
Drive belt
A loose or damaged drive belt may
overheat the engine.
Reducing the risk of a rollover
Your multi-purpose passenger vehicle is
defined as a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV).
SUV's have higher ground clearance
and a narrower track to make them
capable of performing in a wide variety
of off-road applications. The specific
design characteristics give them a higher
center of gravity than ordinary vehicles
making them more likely to roll over if
you make abrupt turns. Utility vehicles
have a significantly higher rollover rate
than other types of vehicles. Due to this
risk, driver and passengers are strongly
recommended to buckle their seat belts.
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person
is significantly more likely to die than a
person wearing a seat belt.
There are steps that a driver can make
to reduce the risk of a rollover. If at all
possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt
maneuvers, do not load your vehicle
with heavy cargo on the roof, and never
modify your vehicle in any way.
WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly
higher rollover rate than other types of
vehicles. To prevent rollovers or loss of
control:
[ Take corners at slower speeds than
you would with a passenger vehicle.
[ Avoid sharp turns and abrupt
maneuvers.
[ Do not modify your vehicle in any
way that you would raise the center
of gravity.
[ Keep tires properly inflated.
[ Do not carry heavy cargo on the roof.
