Instruments and controls 3-13
Temperature gauge
1) Normal operating range
The temperature gauge shows engine
coolant temperature when the ignition
switch is in the #ON$ position.
The coolant temperature will vary in ac-
cordance with the outside temperature
and driving conditions.
We recommend that you drive moderately
until the pointer of the temperature gauge
reaches near the middle of the range. En-
gine operation is optimum with the engine
coolant at this temperature range and high
revving operation when the engine is not
warmed up enough should be avoided.
Outside temperature indica-
tor
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Canada-spec. models
The outside temperature indicator shows
the outside temperature in a range from !
22 to 122F (!30 to 50C).
The indicator can give a false reading un-
der any of the following conditions:
When there is too much sun.
During idling; while running at low
speeds in a traffic jam; when the engine is
restarted immediately following a shut-
down.
When the actual outside temperature
falls outside the specified indicator range.
(Turbo model only)
Promptly put fuel in the tank when-
ever the low fuel warning light
comes on. Engine misfires as a re-
sult of an empty tank could cause
damage to the engine.

If the pointer exceeds the normal
operating range, safely stop the ve-
hicle as soon as possible.
