Tachometer

For automatic transmission vehicle's, under wide open
throttle acceleration, when the accelerator pedal is
pushed flat to the floor, it is possible that the tachometer
needle may briefly enter the lower end of the
tachometer's red zone just prior to automatically
upshifting into a higher gear.

The tachometer shows
engine speed in
revolutions per
minute (rpm).
Notice: If you operate the engine with the
tachometer in the shaded warning area, your vehicle
could be damaged, and the damages would not
be covered by your warranty. Do not operate
the engine with the tachometer in the shaded
warning area.

come on and stay on for
