Low engine coolant
temperature indicator
light in blue
High engine
coolant
temperature
warning light
in red
The indicator and warning lights indi-
cate the engine coolant temperature
when the ignition switch is on. The en-
gine operating temperature will vary
with changes in weather and engine
load.
The high engine coolant temperature warn-
ing light (red) will come on when the igni-
tion key is turned to the โONโ position.
After a few seconds, the light will go off.
If your engine coolant temperature is cool
with the ignition switch on, the low engine
coolant temperature indicator light (blue)
comes on. If it keeps lighting on with the
engine fully warmed, contact your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible to service the
vehicle.
If the high engine coolant temperature
warning light (red) flashes, your engine is
too hot. If your vehicle overheats, stop
your vehicle and allow the engine to cool.
Your vehicle may overheat during severe
operating conditions, such as:
๎ Driving up a long hill on a hot day.
๎ Reducing speed or stopping after high
speed driving.
๎ Idling for a long period with the air
conditioning on in stop- and- go traffic.
NOTICE
๎
Do not remove the thermostat in
the engine cooling system as this
may cause the engine to overheat.
The thermostat is designed to con-
trol the flow of coolant to keep the
temperature of the engine within
the specified operating range.
๎
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. See โIf your
vehicle overheatsโ on page 179 in
Section 4.
Tachometer
SH15003b
The tachometer indicates engine speed
in thousands of rpm (revolutions per
minute). Use it while driving to select
correct shift points and to prevent en-
gine lugging and over- revving.
Driving with the engine running too fast
causes excessive engine wear and poor
fuel economy. Remember, in most cases
the slower the engine speed, the greater
the fuel economy.
NOTICE
Do not let the indicator get segment
into the red zone. This may cause
severe engine damage.
