13. Air Bag Warning Light

This light will turn on for four to eight seconds
as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first
turned to ON/RUN. If the light is either not on
during starting, stays on, or turns on while

driving, have the system inspected at an authorized
dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints”
in “Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle” for
further information.

14. Rear Axle Lock Indicator — If Equipped

This light indicates when the rear axle lock has
been activated.

15. 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.

16. Coolant Temperature Warning Light

This light warns of an overheated engine condi-
tion. If the light turns on while driving, safely pull
over and stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is on,

turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL
and idle the vehicle. If the temperature reading does not
return to normal, turn the engine off immediately and
call for service.

NOTE:

As the coolant temperature gauge approaches

ЉH,Љ this indicator will illuminate and a single chime will
sound. Further overheating will cause the temperature
gauge to pass

ЉH.Љ In this case, the indicator light will

flash continuously and a continuous chime will sound,
until the engine is allowed to cool.
