Instrument explanations to fig. 11:
(1) Speedometer
(2) Tachometer (shows engine revolutions per minute in thousands, when the engine is running).
The red zone at the end of the scale indicates maximum permissible engine rpm (revolutions per minute) for all gears after the break-in period. Before reaching this region, select the next
higher selector level position (D), or ease your foot off the accelerator ⇒ .
(3) Displays
(4) Reset button for the trip odometer display (trip) and button to display the engine code.
– Push and hold the 0.0 button about 1 second in order to reset to zero.
– Push the 0.0 button again and hold it for about 3 seconds to display the previous value.
– Push and hold the 0.0 button for more than 10 seconds to display the vehicle's engine code. You must do this when the ignition is on, but the engine is not running.
(5) Fuel gauge
(6) Engine coolant temperature display.
NOTICE
x To help prevent engine damage, always avoid high engine speeds, full throttle acceleration and heavy engine loads when the engine is cold.
x To help prevent engine damage, the tachometer needle should only enter the red zone (warning zone) briefly.
Up-shifting early into the next higher gear saves fuel and reduces engine noise.
Applicable only in Canada

Bead
The part of a tire made of steel wires, wrapped or reinforced by ply cords, with the shape and structure to ensure proper fit to the wheel rim.
Bead separation
A breakdown of the bond between components in the bead.
Carcass
The tire structure, except tread and sidewall rubber which, when inflated, bears the load.
Chunking
The breaking away of pieces of the tread or sidewall.
Cord
The strands of material forming the plies in the tire.
Cord separation
The parting of cords from adjacent rubber compounds.
Cracking
Any parting within the tread, sidewall, or inner liner of the tire extending to cord material.
Cold tire inflation pressure
The tire pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer for a tire of a specified size that has not been driven for more than a couple of miles (kilometers) at low speeds in the 3 hour period before the tire pressure is measured or adjusted.
Curb weight
The weight of a motor vehicle with standard equipment including the maximum capacity of fuel, oil, and coolant, air conditioner, and additional weight of optional equipment.
Extra load tire
A tire designed to operate at higher loads and at higher inflation pressures than the corresponding standard tire.
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)
The load-carrying capacity of a single axle system, measured where the tire contacts the ground.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
The maximum loaded weight of the vehicle.
Groove
The space between 2 adjacent tread ribs.
Load rating (code)
The maximum load that a tire is rated to carry for a given inflation pressure. You may not find this information on all tires because it is not required by law.
Maximum load rating
The load rating for a tire at the maximum permissible inflation pressure for that tire.
Maximum loaded vehicle weight
The total of:
x Curb weight
