Temperature Gauge
This shows the temperature of the
engine's coolant. During normal
operation, the pointer should rise
from the bottom mark to about the
middle of the gauge. In severe
driving conditions, such as very hot
weather or a long period of uphill
driving, the pointer may rise to the
upper zone. If it reaches the red (hot)
mark, pull safely to the side of the
road. For instructions and
precautions on checking the engine's
cooling system, see page
If the pointer of the temperature
gauge reaches to or above the red
mark, you will also see the
‘‘
WATER
TEMP HOT
’’
message on the multi-
information display. This will alert
you that the engine should be cooled
down.
