WARNING!  
The pointer should always indicate the oil pres-  
sure when the engine is running. A continuous  
high or low reading under normal driving condi-  
tions may indicate a lubrication system malfunc-  
tion. Immediate service should be obtained from  
an authorized dealer.

Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per  
minute (RPM x 1000).  
2. Voltmeter  
NOTE:  
CAUTION!  
When the vehicle is in the RUN state, the gauge  
indicates the electrical system voltage. The  
pointer should stay within the normal range if the  
battery is charged. If the pointer moves to either  
extreme left or right and remains there during  
normal driving, the electrical system should be  
serviced.  
In vehicles equipped with Stop/Start, an oil pressure indi-  
cation of zero is normal during an Autostop.  
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.  
5. Speedometer  
Indicates vehicle speed.  
6. Temperature Gauge  
The pointer shows engine coolant temperature.  
The pointer positioned within the normal range  
indicates that the engine cooling system is oper-  
ating satisfactorily.  
NOTE:  
In vehicles equipped with Stop/Start, a reduced voltage  
may be present during an Autostop.

The pointer will likely indicate a higher tempera-  
ture 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.
