Instruments and Controls 5-11
This gauge, near the shift lever,
indicates vacuum during light to
moderate throttle and boost under
heavier throttle.
It displays the air pressure level in
the intake manifold before it enters
the engine's combustion chamber.
The gauge is automatically centered
at zero every time the engine is
started. Actual vacuum or boost is
displayed from this zero point.
Changes in ambient pressure, such
as driving in mountains and
changing weather, will slightly
change the zero reading.
Engine Oil Pressure
Gauge
Metric
English
For vehicles with the oil pressure
gauge, it is near the shift lever, and
shows the engine oil pressure
in kPa (kilopascals) or psi (pounds
per square inch) when the engine is
running.
Oil pressure may vary with engine
speed, outside temperature, and oil
viscosity, but readings above the
low pressure zone indicate the
normal operating range. When the
oil pressure reaches the low
pressure zone, a message appears
in the Driver Information Center
(DIC). See Engine Oil Messages on
page 5‑36 and Engine Oil on
page 10‑12 for more information.
Notice: Lack of proper engine oil
maintenance can damage the
engine. Driving with the engine
oil low can also damage the
engine. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Check the oil level as soon as
possible. Add oil if required, but
if the oil level is within the
operating range and the oil
pressure is still low, have the
vehicle serviced. Always follow
the maintenance schedule for
changing engine oil.
