Temperature Gauge; Warning And Indicator Lights - Subaru 2002 Legacy Owner's Manual

J Temperature gauge
CAUTION
If the pointer exceeds the normal operating range, safely stop the
vehicle as soon as possible.
See "In case of emergency" in chapter 9.
The temperature gauge shows engine coolant temperature when the
ignition switch is in the "ON" position.
The coolant temperature will vary in accordance with the outside temper-
ature and driving conditions.
We recommend that you drive moderately until the pointer of the temper-
ature gauge reaches near the middle of the range. Engine operation is
optimum with the engine coolant at this temperature range and high rev-
ving operation when the engine is not warmed up enough should be
avoided.

Warning and indicator lights

Several of the warning and indicator lights come on momentarily and
then go out when the ignition switch is initially turned to the "ON" posi-
tion. This permits checking the operation of the bulbs.
Apply the parking brake and turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
The following lights come on:
3-10
