PRECAUTIONS ON PERFORMANCE
DRIVING
The information and specifications in this
section apply only when engaging in
performance driving.
Checking the temperature of the
coolant and oils on the multi func-
tion display
When the temperatures of the engine coolant
and oil, and the oil pressure exceed the normal
range, the color of the meter on the multi
function display changes to red to warn the
driver. When engaging in high performance
driving, switch the display to the function meter
to display the temperature of the engine coolant
and oil, and the oil pressure. When the color of
the meter display changes to red, perform cool
down driving. When the values of the tempera-
ture and pressure return to the normal range, the
color of the meter display will turn back to white.
Warning temperature:
. Engine coolant temperature is 230 8F
(110 8C) or higher:
If the engine coolant temperature increases
above 230
8F (1108C), the color of the meter
display on the multi function display changes
to red to warn of a possible overheat
condition and engine output is reduced.
. Engine oil temperature is 275 8F (1358C) or
higher:
If the engine oil temperature is higher than
275
8F (1358C), the meter display changes
to red, maximum engine speed is automati-
cally limited to 4,000 rpm, and the transmis-
sion automatically changes from the
& M
position to the & A position.
. Transmission oil temperature is 284 8F
(140 8C) or higher:
If the transmission oil temperature increases
to over 284
8F (1408C), the color of the
meter display changes to red. However, the
vehicle can continue to be driven until the
temperature reaches 295
8F (1468C). If the
oil temperature exceeds 284 8F (1408C)
while driving (the color of the meter dis-
played in red), change both the transmission
oil and the differential oil after driving
because these fluids have deteriorated
because of the heat.
Cool down
The information and specifications in this
section apply only when engaging in
performance driving.
Cool down the vehicle to help extend the life of
the vehicle if coolant temperatures are extremely
high. Drive the vehicle at 37 to 50 MPH (60 to
80 km/h), in 5th or 6th gear for 2 to 3 miles (3 to
5 km) and then stop the engine.
Refueling precautions
WARNING
Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling may
cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire. The fuel tank
is full at the first automatic shutoff.
To maximize vehicle performance, the fuel tank is
located as low as possible to lower the vehicle
center of gravity. The tank is also divided into
two parts. This fuel tank design causes higher
pressures inside the tank than other vehicles so
fuel spillage is possible by trying to top off the
fuel tank after automatic shutoff.
The fuel tank pressure is higher when the vehicle
is hot, especially if the tank is more than half full.
If the cap is opened when the vehicle is hot, it
may cause fuel spray and there may be a hissing
noise. Open the cap slowly, releasing the
pressure from the tank gradually. Also, if the
