Gauges

The gauges display various information such as the speed of the vehicle, and so on.

Speedometer

Type A
Type B

The speedometer indicates the speed of the vehicle and is calibrated in kilometers per hour (km/h).

Tachometer

Type A
Type B

The tachometer indicates the approximate number of engine revolutions per minute (rpm).

Use the tachometer to select the correct shift points and to prevent lugging and/or over-revving the engine.

CAUTION

Do not operate the engine within the tachometer's RED ZONE. This may cause severe engine damage.

Engine coolant temperature gauge

Type A
Type B

This gauge indicates the temperature of the engine coolant when the ignition switch or ENGINE START/STOP button is ON.

CAUTION

If the gauge pointer moves beyond the normal range area (between the C-H) toward the "H" position, it indicates overheating that may damage the engine.

Do not continue driving with an overheated engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer to More Details.

WARNING

Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. The engine coolant is under pressure and could severely burn. Wait until the engine is cool before adding coolant to the reservoir.

Fuel gauge

Type A
Type B

This gauge indicates the approximate amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.

NOTICE
  • The fuel tank capacity is given in More Details.

  • The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly empty.

  • On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel warning light may come on earlier than usual due to the movement of fuel in the tank.

WARNING

Fuel Gauge

Running out of fuel can expose vehicle occupants to danger.

You must stop and obtain additional fuel as soon as possible after the warning light comes on or when the gauge indicator comes close to the " E" level.

CAUTION

Avoid driving with a extremely low fuel level. Running out of fuel could cause the engine to misfire damaging the catalytic converter.

Odometer

Type A
Type B

The odometer Indicates the total distance that the vehicle has been driven and should be used to determine when periodic maintenance should be performed.

  • Odometer range: 0 ~ 1,599,999 km or 999,999 miles.

Distance to empty

Type A
Type B
  • The distance to empty is the estimated distance the vehicle can be driven with the remaining fuel.

    • Distance range: 1 ~ 9,999 km

  • If the estimated distance is below 1 km, the trip computer will display "---" as distance to empty.

  • If the level of the remaining fuel is more than three-quarters, more than 3 litres of fuel must be refilled for the fuel gauge to change. In other cases, more than 6 litres of fuel must be refilled for the vehicle to change the fuel gauge.

NOTICE
  • If the vehicle is not on level ground or the battery power has been interrupted, the distance to empty function may not operate correctly.

  • The distance to empty may differ from the actual driving distance as it is an estimate of the available driving distance.

  • The trip computer may not register additional fuel if less than 6 litres of fuel are added to the vehicle.

  • The fuel economy and distance to empty may vary significantly based on driving conditions, driving habits, and condition of the vehicle.

Outside temperature gauge

Type A
Type B

This gauge indicates the current outside air temperatures by 1 °C (1 °F).

  • Temperature range: -40 °C ~ 85 °C (-40 °F ~ 211 °F)

The outside temperature on the display may not change immediately like a general thermometer to prevent the driver from being inattentive.

To change the temperature unit (from °C to °F or from °F to °C)

The temperature unit can be changed by using the "User Settings" mode of the LCD Display.
