INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DESCRIPTIONS
1. Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine speed in
Revolutions Per Minute (RPM x 1000).
CAUTION!
Do not operate the engine with the tachom-
eter pointer at high RPM for extended peri-
ods. Engine operation over 3200 RPM (Red-
line) can result in significant damage that will
not be covered under the New Vehicle Lim-
ited Warranty.
2. Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
This light monitors the Anti-lock
Brake System (ABS). The light will
turn on when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON/RUN position and
may stay on for as long as four
seconds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while
driving, it indicates that the anti-lock portion of
the brake system is not functioning and that
service is required. However, the conventional
brake system will continue to operate normally if
the BRAKE warning light is not on.
If the ABS light is on, the brake system should
be serviced as soon as possible to restore the
benefits of anti-lock brakes. If the ABS light
does not turn on when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON/RUN position, have the light
inspected by an authorized dealer.
3. Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) is part of an onboard diag-
nostic (OBDII) system which moni-
tors the emissions and engine con-
trol system. If the vehicle is ready
for emissions testing, the light will come on
when the ignition is first turned on and remain
on, as a bulb check, until the engine is started.
If the vehicle is not ready for emissions testing
the light will come on when the ignition is first
turned on and remain on for 15 seconds, then
blink for 5 seconds, and remain on until the
vehicle is started. If the bulb does not come on
during starting, have the condition investigated
promptly.
If this light comes on and remains on while
driving, it suggests a potential engine control
problem and the need for system service.
Although your vehicle will usually be drivable
and not need towing, see your authorized
dealer for service as soon as possible.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Malfunction Indi-
cator Light (MIL) on could cause damage to
the engine control system. It also could affect
fuel economy and driveability. If the MIL is
flashing, severe catalytic converter damage
and power loss will soon occur. Immediate
service is required.
