Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
United States
This gage shows the engine coolant temperature.
It also provides an indicator of how hard your vehicle is
working. During a majority of the operation, the gage
will read 210°F (100°C) or less. If you are pulling a load
or going up hills, it is normal for the temperature to
fluctuate and approach the 250°F (122°C) mark. If the
gage reaches the 260°F (125°C) mark, it indicates that
the cooling system is working beyond its capacity.

safe to do so. If underinflated, inflate to the proper
pressure. See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 6 64
