INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
- Tachometer
- Speedometer
- Engine coolant temperature gauge
- Fuel gauge
- Warning and indicator lights
- LCD (including Trip computer)
The actual cluster in the vehicle may differ from the illustration.
For more details, refer to the “Gauges and Meters” in this chapter.
Instrument Cluster Control
Adjusting instrument cluster illumination
When the vehicle’s position lights or headlights are on, press the illumina-tion control button to adjust the brightness of the instrument panel illumination.
When pressing the illumination control button, the interior switch illumination intensity is also adjusted.
WARNING
Never adjust the instrument cluster while driving. Doing so could lead to driver distraction which may cause an accident and lead to vehicle damage, serious injury, or death.
- The brightness of the instrument panel illumination is displayed.
- If the brightness reaches the maximum or minimum level, a chime will sound.
For information regarding the illumination setting on your audio display, refer to the “Setup” section of your Audio or Navigation manual.
Gauges and Meters
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the speed of the vehicle and is calibrated in miles per hour (MPH) and/or kilometers per hour (km/h).
Variable LED tachometer
The tachometer indicates the approximate number of engine revolutions per minute (rpm).
Use the tachometer to select the correct shift points and to prevent lugging and/or over-revving the engine.
The yellow and red LEDs show the range of recommended engine operation speed. As the engine oil temperature warms up, the recommended engine speed range also extends.
Avoid driving with engine speeds in the yellow and red warning fields. In particular, do not drive with the engine speed in the red warning field. Doing so may damage the engine.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
This gauge indicates the temperature of the engine coolant when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
NOTICE
If the gauge pointer moves beyond the normal range area toward the “H” position, it indicates overheating that may damage the engine.
Do not continue driving with an overheated engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer to “If the Engine Overheats” in Chapter 6.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap or reservoir cap when the engine is hot. The engine coolant is under pressure and could severely burn. Wait until the engine is cool before adding coolant to the reservoir.
Fuel gauge
This gauge indicates the approximate amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
Information
- The fuel tank capacity is given in chapter 8.
- The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly empty.
- On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel warning light may come on earlier than usual due to the movement of fuel in the tank.
WARNING
Running out of fuel can expose vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain additional fuel as soon as possible after the warning light comes on or when the gauge indicator comes close to the “E (Empty)” level.
NOTICE
Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel level. Running out of fuel could cause the engine to misfire damaging the catalytic converter.
Outside temperature gauge
This gauge indicates the current outside air temperature by 1°F (1°C).
- Temperature range: -40°F ~ 140°F (-40°C ~ 60°C)
Note that the temperature indicated on the LCD may not change as quickly as the outside temperature (there may be a slight delay before the temperature changes.)
You can change the temperature unit from °F to °C or °C to °F in the User Settings mode in the cluster:
- Go to User Settings Mode ➝ Other ➝ Temperature Unit.
For vehicles equipped with Automatic Climate Control, you can also:
- Press and hold the AUTO and OFF buttons on the climate control unit for 3 seconds
Both the temperature unit on the cluster LCD and climate control screen will change.

Odometer
The odometer indicates the total distance that the vehicle has been driven and should be used to determine when periodic maintenance should be performed.
Range
- The range is the estimated distance the vehicle can be driven with the remaining fuel.
- If the estimated distance is below 1 mi. (1 km), the trip computer will display “—-” as a range.
Information
- If the vehicle is not on level ground or the battery power has been interrupted, the range function may not operate correctly.
- The range may differ from the actual driving distance as it is only an estimate of the available driving range for the vehicle and driving conditions.
- The trip computer may not register additional fuel if less than 1.6 gallons (6 liters) of fuel are added to the vehicle.
- The range may vary significantly based on driving conditions, driving habits, and the condition of the vehicle.
Transmission shift indicator
Manual transmission shift indicator
- Transmission shift indicator
- Current shift lever position
This indicator informs which gear is recommended while driving, to save fuel.
- Shifting up: ▲2, ▲3, ▲4, ▲5, ▲6
- Shifting down: ▼1, ▼2, ▼3, ▼4, ▼5
For example
- Indicates that shifting up to the 3rd gear is recommended (currently the shift lever is in the 2nd or 1st gear).
- Indicates that shifting down to the 3rd gear is recommended (currently the shift lever is in the 4th, 5th, or 6th gear).
This indicator is displayed when driving in NORMAL/ECO mode.
Shift lights 
The number of LEDs illuminated indicates the relevant engine speed.
Different colored LEDs will be illuminated as engine speed nears the maximum allowed speed.
You may select in which mode to display the gear shift indicator on the Infotainment system screen.
Go to ‘N mode → Performance Options → Shift Indicator → ECO/NORMAL/SPORT/N/CUS-TOM’.
Each gear and drive mode has a different LED operation range. In SPORT mode and N mode, LED operation is broader than NORMAL mode and ECO mode to further support the driver under sporty and track driving conditions.
