 • Push to toggle between odometer and trip meter (A & B).

  • When a trip meter is selected, push and hold to reset to zero.

NOTE:

Low ambient temperature and or high altitude causes tire pressures to drop and 

may turn the TPMS warning light on. If the warning light comes on, check the tire pressure 

and fill the tires as soon as possible, preferably before moving the vehicle and warming up 

the tires. Tire pressure should be checked when the tires are cold.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMP LIGHTS  

Since this vehicle does not use an engine coolant 
temperature gauge, red and blue engine coolant 
temperature lights are used to indicate high and 
low coolant temperature.

Red Coolant Temp Light

Flashing:

 Engine is starting to run hot. Drive  

slowly to reduce engine load. 

On:

 Engine is overheating. Safely pull over to  

the side of the road and turn the engine off.  

Refer to the Owner’s Manual for  

more information.

Blue Coolant Temp Light

On:

 Engine coolant is cold and no warm air  

is available for heater/defroster. 

Off:

 Engine coolant is warm and warm air is  

available for heater/defroster.  

The light may stay on for a few minutes after  

start-up when the engine is cold, but the  

vehicle can be driven with the light on or off.

FUEL GAUGE:

If the lowest scale mark and 
the E is flashing, this indicates 
the fuel level is low. Refuel as 
soon as possible.

If only the E is flashing, this 
indicates the fuel tank is nearly 
empty. Refuel immediately.
