Engine coolant temperature
gauge: Indicates engine coolant
temperature. At normal operating
temperature, the needle will be in
the normal range (between "H" and
"C"). If the needle moves close
to the "H" range, the engine is

soon as safely possible, switch off the engine and let the engine
cool.
WARNING: Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the
engine is running or hot.

approximately how much fuel is left
in the fuel tank (when the ignition
is in the on position). The fuel
gauge may vary slightly when the

filler door is located.
Refer to Filling the tank in the Maintenance and Specifications
chapter for more information.

speed in revolutions per minute.
Driving with your tachometer
pointer continuously at the top of
the scale may damage the engine.
