94 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
4. Oil Pressure Gauge
MIDLINE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DESCRIPTIONS — GASOLINE
1. Tachometer
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.
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 Ú page 350.
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.
7. Fuel Gauge
3. Instrument Cluster Display
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.
The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel tank
when the ignition is in the ON/RUN position.
When the appropriateconditions exist, this display
shows the instrument cluster display messages
Ú page 98.
The fuel pump symbol points to the
side of the vehicle where the fuel door
is located.
The display always shows one of the main menu
items after ignition on.
