When the engine is on, the
tachometer will indicate the engine s
revolutions per minute (rpm). The
tachometer may vary by several
hundred rpm s, during Auto Stop
mode, when the engine is shutting off
and restarting.
A slight bump may be felt when the
transmission is determining the most
fuel efficient operating range.
Caution
If the engine is operated with the
rpm s in the warning area at the
high end of the tachometer, the
vehicle could be damaged, and the
damage would not be covered by
the vehicle warranty. Do not operate
the engine with the rpm s in the
warning area.
