an instrument cluster gage connected to the VSS on the transaxle output shaft. The trip odometer can be reset to
zero at any time so that the driver can record the distance traveled from any starting point.
Fuel Gage
The fuel gage consists of an instrument cluster gage connected to a sending unit in the fuel tank.
The fuel gage indicates the quantity of fuel in the tank only when the ignition switch is turned to ON or ACC.
When the ignition is turned to LOCK or START, the pointer may come to rest at any position.
Temperature Gage
The temperature gage consists of an instrument cluster gage connected to a temperature sensor that is in contact
with the circulating engine coolant.
The temperature gage indicates the temperature of the coolant. Prolonged driving or idling in very hot weather
may cause the pointer to move beyond the center of the gage. The engine is overheating if the pointer moves
into the red zone at the upper limit of the gage.
Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps
The instrument cluster contains indicator lamps that indicate the function of certain systems or the existence of
potential problems with the operation of the vehicle. The indicator lamps are replaceable. For replacement of
the indicator lamps contained in the instrument cluster, refer to Bulb Usage Specifications
and Instrument
Cluster Lamp Replacement .
Chime Module
The chime module is located above the instrument panel fuse block and will sound in order to bring attention to
one or more of the following conditions:
The lamps are ON, the door is ajar, and the ignition switch is not in ACC, ON, or START.
The seat belt is unbuckled when the ignition switch is in ON or START.
The door is open when the ignition switch is in ON or START.
The key is left in the ignition switch when the ignition is in LOCK and the door is open.
