INSTRUMENT PANEL Tachometer The tachometer shows your engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm). Passenger Safety Belt Reminder Light Several seconds after the key is turned to RUN or START, a chime will sound for several seconds to remind the front passenger to buckle their safety belt. This would only occur if the passenger airbag is enabled. Refer to "Passenger Sensing System" in "Airbag System" in the "Seats and Restraint Systems" section for more information. The passenger safety belt light will also come on and stay on for several seconds, then it will flash for several more. Airbag Readiness Light There is an airbag readiness light on the instrument panel, which shows the airbag symbol. The system checks the airbag's electrical system for malfunctions. The light tells you if there is an electrical problem. The system check includes the airbag sensor, the airbag modules, the wiring and the crash sensing and diagnostic module. CAUTION If you operate the engine with the tachometer in the solid red area, your vehicle could be damaged. The damages would not be covered by your warranty. Do not operate the engine in the solid red area.
