Speedometer
The speedometer indicates vehicle speed.
Speed Alert System
The speed alert system gives audible
warning for alert of over-speed to driver.
When vehicle speed exceeds about
80Kmph, primary level warning with two
beeps will sound every minute. When the
vehicle speed exceeds about 120 Km/h,
secondary level warning with continuous
beeps will sound. If the vehicle speed is
slowed down to about 118 km/h, primary
warning will resume. If the vehicle is
slowed down to about 78 Km/h, speed
alert warning will stop. This buzzer does
not indicate any malfunction in vehicle.
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine speed in
revolutions per minute.
Fuel Gauge
79MM02016
When the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position or the ignition mode is “ON”, this
gauge gives an approximate indication of
the amount of fuel in the fuel tank. “F”
stands for full and “E” stands for empty.
If the indicator gets off the graduation of
“E” (near “E”), refill the tank as soon as
possible.
NOTE:
The indicator moves a little depending on
road conditions (for example, slope or
curve) and driving conditions because of
fuel moving in the tank.
If the low fuel warning light (1) comes on,
fill the fuel tank immediately.
Refer to “Low Fuel Warning Light” in
“Warning and Indicator Lights” in this sec-
tion for details.
The mark (2) indicates that the fuel filler
door is located on the left side of the vehi-
cle.
NOTICE
Never drive the vehicle with the
engine revving in the red zone or
severe engine damage can result.
Keep the engine speed below the red
zone even when downshifting to a
lower gear position.
Refer to “Downshifting maximum
allowable speeds” in the “OPERAT-
ING YOUR VEHICLE” section.
