2. Voltage Gauge

When the engine is running, 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 sys-
tem should be serviced.

NOTE:

If the gauge pointer moves to either extreme of

the gauge, the “Check Gages” indicator will illuminate
and a single chime will sound.

3. Turn Signal Indicators
Lights in instrument cluster flash when outside turn
signals are operating.

4. Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per
minute.

CAUTION!

Do not operate the engine with the tachometer
pointer at high rpm for extended periods. Engine
damage may occur.

5. Airbag Indicator Light
The indicator lights and remains lit for 6 to 8 seconds
when the ignition is first turned on. If the light stays on,
flickers or comes on while driving, have the airbag
system checked by an authorized dealer.

6. High Beam Indicator

This indicator shows that headlights are on high
beam.
