1. Tachometer
   • Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per minute (RPM x 1000).
     CAUTION: Do not operate the engine with the tachometer pointer in the red area. Engine damage will occur.
2. Temperature Gauge
   • The temperature gauge shows the engine coolant temperature. Any reading within the normal range indicates that the engine cooling system is operating satisfactorily.
   • The pointer will likely indicate a higher temperature when driving in hot weather, up mountain grades, or when towing a trailer. It should not be allowed to exceed the upper limits of the normal operating range.
     WARNING: A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned by steam or boiling coolant. You may want to call an authorized dealer for service if your vehicle overheats.
     CAUTION: Driving with a hot engine cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge reads “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.
3. Instrument Cluster Display
   • The instrument cluster display features a driver interactive display. Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in this chapter for further information.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY
Your vehicle may be equipped with an instrument cluster display, which offers useful information to the driver. With the ignition in the OFF mode, opening/closing of a door will activate the display for viewing, and display the total miles, or kilometers, in the odometer. Your instrument cluster display is designed to display important information about your vehicle’s systems and features. Using a driver interactive display located on the instrument panel, your instrument cluster display can show you how systems are working and give you warnings when they aren’t. The steering wheel-mounted controls allow you to scroll through and enter the main menus and submenus. You can access the specific information you want and make selections and adjustments.
