IESEL
1. Tachometer
Indicates the engine speed in revolutions
per minute (RPM x 1000).
2. Engine Coolant Temperature
This gauge shows the engine coolant
temperature. The gauge pointer will likely
show higher temperatures when driving in
hot weather, up mountain grades, or in
heavy stop and go traffic. If the red Warning
Light turns on while driving, safely bring the
vehicle to a stop, and turn off the engine.
DO NOT operate the vehicle until the cause
is corrected.
NGINE
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or
others could be badly burned by steam or boiling
coolant. It is recommended to call an authorized
dealer for service if your vehicle overheats.
Driving with a hot engine cooling system could
damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge
reads greater "H," pull over and stop the vehicle.
Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner turned
off until the pointer drops back into the normal
range. If the pointer remains on the "h," turn the
engine off immediately and call an authorized
dealer for service.
WARNING!
CAUTION!
3. Instrument Cluster Display
When the appropriate conditions exist, this
display shows the instrument cluster
display messages Ú page 109.
The display always shows one of the main
menu item after ignition is placed on.
4. Oil Pressure Gauge
The pointer should always indicate some oil
pressure when the engine is running. A
continuous high or low reading under
normal driving conditions may indicate a
lubrication system malfunction. Immediate
service should be obtained from an autho-
rized dealer.
