The engine switch is in ON.

Variable red zone

To help protect the engine, the engine

speed is controlled by starting the red zone

of the tachometer at different engine

speeds ranging from 3700 r/min to 7300

r/min depending on the engine coolant

temperature.
Before driving under extremely high load

conditions, make sure to sufficiently warm

up the engine.

Instrument panel brightness adjustment

The brightness of the instrument panel

lights is automatically adjusted based on the

light sensor detecting how bright the sur-

roundings are.

Outside temperature display

In the following situations, the correct

outside temperature may not be dis-

played, or the display may take longer

than normal to change.

• When stopped, or driving at low speeds

speed.

In the following situations, the engine

may be overheating. In this case,

immediately stop the vehicle in a safe

place, and check the engine after it has

cooled completely. (
