The mark (2) indicates that the fuel filler door is located on the left side of the vehicle. 57L21060 (1) 57L21080 When the ignition mode has been changed to "ON" by pressing the engine switch, this gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature. Under normal driving conditions, the indicator should stay within the normal, acceptable temperature range between "H" and "C". If the indicator approaches "H", overheating is indicated. Follow the instructions for engine overheating in the "EMERGENCY SERVICE" section. When the engine switch is pressed to change the ignition mode to "ON", the instrument panel lights come on. Your vehicle has a system to automatically dim the brightness of the instrument panel lights when the parking lights or headlights are on. You can change the brightness of the instrument panel lights regardless of whether the parking lights or headlights are off or on. To increase the brightness of the instrument panel lights, turn the brightness control knob (1) clockwise. To reduce the brightness of the instrument panel lights, turn the brightness control knob (1) counterclockwise. CAUTION Continuing to drive the vehicle when engine overheating is indicated can result in severe engine damage. 2-79
