Speedometer

The speedometer indicates the forward
speed of the vehicle.

Odometer/Tripmeter

You can choose the odometer, tripmeter
A and tripmeter B by pressing the trip-
meter mode button (TRIP A/B).

Odometer

The odometer indicates the total dis-
tance the vehicle has been driven.

Tripmeter

TRIP A: Tripmeter A
TRIP B: Tripmeter B
The tripmeter indicates the distance of
individual trips selected by the driver.
Tripmeter A and B can be reset to 0 by
pressing the RESET button for 1 second
or more, and then releasing.

Tachometer

The tachometer indicates the approxi-
mate 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 tachometer pointer may move slight-
ly when the ignition switch is in ACC or
ON position with the engine OFF. This
movement is normal and will not affect
the accuracy of the tachometer once the
engine is running.

Engine temperature gauge

This gauge shows the temperature of the
engine coolant when the ignition switch
is ON.
Do not continue driving with an overheat-
ed engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer
to “Overheating” in the Index.

GAUGES

CAUTION

Do not operate the engine within
the tachometer's RED ZONE.
This may cause severe engine dam-
age.

CAUTION

If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the
“H” position, it indicates overheat-
ing that may damage the engine.
