The instrument illumination for the needles
and dials turns on when the ignition is turned
on and the lights are turned off. The illumina-
tion for the gauges reduces automat icall y and
eventually turns off as brightness outside in-
creases. This function reminds the driver to
turn the low beams on at the appropriate
time.

on. To prevent engine damage, please observe
the following notes about the temperature rang-
es.
Cold range
If the needle is at the bottom of the gauge, the
engine has not reached operating temperature
yet. Avoid high eng ine speeds, full accelerating
and heavy engine loads.
Normal range
The engine has reached operating temperature
when the needle moves into the center of the
gauge under norma l driving condit ions. The nee-
dle may move farther to the right on the gauge
with heavier engine load at hig h outside temper -
atu res. This is no cause for concern as long as the
• ind icator light in the instrument cluster does
not turn on .
If the needle is far over on the r ight side of the
gauge and the . ind icator light turns o n in the
inst rument cluster, then the coolant tempe ra-
ture is too high c:::> page 13.
