Instruments and controls 3-9 & Temperature gauge CAUTION If the pointer exceeds the normal operating range, safely stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Refer to "In case of emergency" in chapter 9. Meters and gauges (Non-turbo models) NOTE Liquid-crystal displays are used in some of the meters and gauges in the combination meter. You will find their indications hard to see if you wear polarized glasses. & Combination meter illumination 1) Normal operating range The temperature gauge shows engine coolant temperature when the ignition switch is in the "ON" position. The coolant temperature will vary in accordance with the outside temperature and driving conditions. We recommend that you drive moderately until the pointer of the temperature gauge reaches near the middle of the range. Engine operation is optimum with the engine coolant at this temperature range and high revving operation when the engine is not warmed up enough should be avoided. When the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position, the various parts of the combination meter are illuminated in the following sequence: 1. Warning lights, indicator lights, meter needles, gauge needles, odometer and trip meter back light illuminate. 2. Meter needles and gauge needles each show MAX position. 3. Meter needles and gauge needles each show MIN position. 4. Dials and indicators in meters and gauges light up. 5. Regular illumination (for driving) begins. - CONTINUED -
