INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DESCRIPTIONS
1. Fuel Gauge/Fuel Door Location
When the ignition switch is in the
ON/RUN position, the pointer will
show the level of fuel remaining in
the fuel tank. The fuel pump sym-
bol points to the side of the vehicle
where the fuel door is located.
2. Charging System Light
This light shows the status of the elec-
trical charging system. The light should
come on when the ignition switch is
first turned to ON/RUN and remain on briefly as
a bulb check. If the Charging System light
remains on, or comes on while driving, it means
that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with
the charging system. Obtain SERVICE IMME-
DIATELY. See your authorized dealer.
If jump starting is required, refer to "Jump
Starting Procedures" in "What To Do In
Emergencies".
3. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Indica-
tor Light
This light informs you of a problem
with the Electronic Throttle Control
(ETC) system. If a problem is de-
tected, the light will come on while
the engine is running. Cycle the
ignition key when the vehicle has completely
stopped and the shift lever is placed in the
NEUTRAL position. The light should turn off. If
the light remains lit with the engine running,
your vehicle will usually be drivable; however,
see an authorized dealer for service as soon as
possible. If the light is flashing when the engine
is running, immediate service is required and
you may experience reduced performance, an
elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your
vehicle may require towing. The light will come
on when the ignition is first turned to ON/RUN
and remain on briefly as a bulb check. If the light
does not come on during starting, have the
system checked by an authorized dealer.
4. Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light indicates low engine oil pres-
sure. The light should turn on momen-
tarily when the engine is started. If the light turns
on while driving, stop the vehicle and shut off
the engine as soon as possible. A chime will
sound when this light turns on.
Do not operate the vehicle until the cause is
corrected. This light does not indicate how
much oil is in the engine. The engine oil level
must be checked under the hood.
5. Low Fuel Light
When the fuel level reaches approxi-
mately 2.0 gal (7.8 L) this light will turn
on, and remain on until fuel is added.
6. Speedometer
Indicates vehicle speed.
NOTE:
A chime will sound once if the vehicle ex-
ceeds 120 km/h (75 mph).
