9. Tachometer
Indicates engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm). Do not drive for long with the needle in the red
section. The engine has an built-in function preventing excessively high engine speeds. When this function operates,
you may discern some pulsation, which in that case is quite normal.
10. Gear and driving mode indicator

when the temperature is in the range of 23 - 36 °F (-5 - +2 °C).
Please note that this symbol does not indicate a fault with your vehicle. At low speeds or when the vehicle is not
moving, the temperature readings may be slightly higher than the actual ambient temperature.

Turn the button to set the clock.
13. Fuel gauge
The fuel tank holds approximately: Front wheel drive, non-turbo models - 18.5 US gal. (70 liters)
