INSTRUMENT PANEL
1. Temperature gauge
This gauge indicates the temperature of the engine coolant.
During normal operation, the pointer will rise from the lower
(cold) mark to the middle part of the gauge, where it will remain
while the engine is operating at its normal temperature.
In severe driving conditions, such as very hot weather or extended
hill climbing, the pointer may reach the upper WHITE mark. If
the pointer rises to the RED mark, the coolant is too hot and
severe engine damage could result; stop the car as soon as safety
permits and seek qualified assistance.
2. Tachometer
Indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute. To protect the
engine from damage, NEVER allow the tachometer pointer to
enter the RED sector. Note that the range of the red sector will
vary according to engine type.
NOTE: Speed restriction limiters will prevent engine speed rising above a
pre-determined level.
3. Speedometer
Indicates road speed in kilometres per hour.
4. Digital display
The display shows the following:
• Odometer reading (shows the total distance travelled by the
car). The word ‘ODO’ is also displayed.
• Trip recorder (for recording individual journey distances). The
word trip is also displayed.
• Automatic gear selector position (‘P’, ‘R’, ‘N’, ‘D’) - Auto
gearbox cars only.
• The word ‘SPORT’ confirms selection of Sport mode - Auto
gearbox cars only.
• Manual mode gear selection information (‘1’, ‘2’, ‘3’, ‘4’, ‘5’ or
