Instrument Cluster
The actual cluster in the vehicle may differ from the illustration.
For more information, refer to the “Gauges and meters” section in this chapter.
- Tachometer
- Speedometer
- Fuel gauge
- Engine coolant temperature gauge
- Warning and indicator lights
- Cluster display
Information
Detailed information on 3D instrument cluster is provided later in this chapter.
Instrument cluster control
Instrument panel illumination
When the vehicle’s parking lights or headlights are on, press the illumination control switch to adjust the brightness of the instrument panel illumination.
When pressing the illumination control switch, the interior switch illumination intensity is also adjusted.
WARNING
Never adjust the instrument cluster while driving. This could result in loss of control and lead to an accident that may cause death, serious injury, or vehicle damage.
- The brightness of the instrument panel illumination appears.
- If the brightness reaches the maximum or minimum level, a chime will sound.
Gauges and meters
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the speed of the vehicle and is calibrated in kilometers per hour (km/h) and/or miles per hour (MPH).
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the approximate number of engine revolutions per minute (RPM).
Use the tachometer to select the correct shift points and to prevent lugging and/or over-revving the engine.
NOTICE
Do not operate the engine within the tachometer’s RED ZONE. This may cause severe engine damage.
Engine coolant temperature gauge (for 12.3-inch 3D cluster)
This gauge indicates the temperature of the engine coolant when the Engine Start/Stop button is in the ON position.
NOTICE
If the gauge pointer moves beyond the normal range area toward the “H (Hot)” position, it indicates overheating that may damage the engine.
Do not continue driving with an overheated engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer to the “If The Engine Overheats” section in chapter 8.
WARNING
Never remove the engine coolant reservoir cap when the engine is hot. The engine coolant is under pressure and could cause severe burn. Wait until the engine is cool before adding coolant to the reservoir.
Information
For 8-inch instrument cluster, you can check the engine coolant temperature in the Utility view on the cluster.
Refer to the “Cluster Display (Type A)”, “Cluster Display (Type B)” section in chapter 4.
Fuel gauge
This gauge indicates the approximate amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
Information
- The fuel tank capacity is given in chapter 2.
- The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly empty.
- On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel warning light may come on earlier than usual due to the movement of fuel in the tank.
WARNING
Running out of fuel can expose vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain additional fuel as soon as possible after the warning light comes on or when the gauge indicator comes close to the “E (Empty)” level.
NOTICE
Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel level. Running out of fuel could cause the engine to misfire damaging the catalytic converter.
Outside temperature gauge
This gauge indicates the current outside air temperatures by 1 °F (1 °C).
Note that the temperature indicated on the cluster display may not change as quickly as the outside temperature (there may be a slight delay before the temperature changes.)
You can change the temperature unit from the Settings menu in the infotainment system. Select:
- Setup > General > Units > Temperature Unit > °C/°F
For vehicles equipped with Automatic Climate Control, you can also:
- Press the AUTO button while pressing the OFF button on the climate control unit for 3 seconds
Both the temperature unit on the cluster display and climate control screen will change.
Information
The infotainment system may change after software updates. For more information, refer to the user’s manual provided in the infotainment system and the quick reference guide.
Odometer
The odometer indicates the total distance that the vehicle has been driven and should be used to determine when periodic maintenance should be performed.
Distance to empty
- The distance to empty is the estimated distance the vehicle can be driven with the remaining fuel.
- If the estimated distance is below 1 mi.(1 km), the trip computer will display “—” as distance to empty.
Information
- If the vehicle is not on level ground or the battery power has been interrupted, the distance to empty function may not operate correctly.
- The distance to empty may differ from the actual driving distance as it is an estimate of the available driving distance.
- The trip computer may not register additional fuel if less than 1.6 US gal. (6 liters) of fuel are added to the vehicle.
- The distance to empty may vary significantly based on driving conditions, driving habits, and condition of the vehicle.
CAUTION
If the shift gear is not P (Park) or N (Neutral) during refueling, the refueling may not be recognized and the fuel amount and distance to empty may be displayed abnormally.
Transmission shift indicator
Automatic transmission shift indicator
This indicator informs the current gear engaged.
