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.

Engine coolant temperature gauge

Do not continue driving with an overheated engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer to “If the Engine Overheats” on page 7-07.
