Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
You have a gage that shows
the engine coolant
temperature. If the gage
pointer moves into the red
area, the engine is too hot!
That reading means the same thing as the warning light.
It means that the engine coolant has overheated. If you
have been operating the vehicle under normal driving
conditions, you should pull off the road, stop the vehicle
and turn off the engine as soon as possible.
In “Problems on the Road,” this manual shows what to
do. See “Engine Overheating” in the Index.
Low Coolant Warning Light
If this light comes on, the
system is low on coolant
and the engine may
overheat.
See “Engine Coolant” in the Index and have the vehicle
serviced as soon as you can.
Fuel Gage
The fuel gage tells you
about how much fuel you
have left when the ignition
is on. When the indicator
nears E (EMPTY), you still
have a little fuel left, but
you should get more soon.
