When Driving

Instrument Cluster and Display

 Engine Coolant Temperature 

Gauge

Displays the engine coolant temperature. 

The blue gauge indicates that the engine 

coolant temperature is low, and the red 

gauge indicates that the engine coolant 

temperature is high and overheating.

CAUTION

If the high engine coolant temperature 

warning light (red) turns on, there is 

a possibility of overheating. Park the 

vehicle in a safe place immediately 

and take appropriate measures. If the 

vehicle continues to be driven, it could 

cause damage to the engine.

Refer to Overheating on page 7-24.

NOTE



  The temperature unit (Centigrade/

Fahrenheit) of the engine coolant gauge 

display changes in conjunction with 

the temperature unit of the outside 

temperature display.

  Refer to Personalization Features on 

page 9-11.



  During normal driving, the engine 

coolant temperature stabilizes at 100 

°C (210 °F) or less, and the gauge 

indicates a range lower than 100 °C 

(210 °F).



  If the engine load increases and the 

engine coolant temperature exceeds 100 

°C (210 °F), the gauge indicates the 

engine coolant temperature.

 Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge shows approximately 

how much fuel is remaining in the tank 

when the ignition is switched ON. We 

recommend keeping the tank over 1/4 full.

Full

1/4 Full

Empty

If the fuel level is low, ( ) and ( ) turn an 

amber color. Refuel as soon as possible.

Refer to Taking Action on page 

7-38.

NOTE



  After refueling, it may require some 

time for the indicator to stabilize. In 

addition, the indicator may deviate 

while driving on a slope or curve since 

the fuel moves in the tank.



  The display indicating a quarter or less 

remaining fuel has more segments to 

show the remaining fuel level in greater 

detail.



  The direction of the arrow ( ) indicates 

that the fuel-filler lid is on the left side 

of the vehicle.
