indication will appear for 10 seconds.
& Tachometer
The tachometer shows the engine speed
in thousands of revolutions per minute.
CAUTION

pointer of the tachometer in the red

be cut by the engine control module
to protect the engine from overrev-
ving. The engine will resume run-
ning normally after the engine speed
is reduced below the red zone.

To protect the engine while the “P” or
“N” position is selected, the engine is
controlled such that the engine speed
does not become too high even if the
accelerator pedal is pressed hard.

amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
The gauge does not return to
“E” even

braking, turning or acceleration due to fuel
level movement in the tank.

switch is in the
“LOCK” position, the fuel
gauge ’s dial will light up and the needle
will indicate the amount of fuel remaining
in the tank.

the amount of fuel remaining in the tank,
