1. Speedometer. 2. Fuel gauge. 3. Coolant temperature gauge. 4. Tachometer. 5. Odometer/trip meter. 6. Trip meter reset button.
Speedometer
Kilometers per hour readings
This speedometer shows the speed of the car in kilometers per hour (km/h, km/h).
Kilometers per hour and miles per hour readings
This speedometer shows the speed of the car in miles per hour (miles/hour, mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h, km/h).
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the engine crankshaft speed (rpm). The tachometer allows you to select a more economical driving mode and warns you when the engine speed reaches excessive levels.
Caution: While driving, do not allow the tachometer needle to enter the red zone (engine speed too high).
Odometer/trip counter
A. Odometer. B. Trip meter. C. Reset button.
When the ignition key is turned to the ON position, the odometer and trip meter are turned on.
Odometer
The odometer shows the total mileage of the vehicle.
Daily mileage counter
The trip meter shows the distance traveled during a single trip or over a specified period of time. The device can display two counter readings: TRIP (A) and (B).
The TRIP (A) reading can be used to measure the distance traveled since the start of the current trip.
At the same time, the TRIP (B) value can be used to measure the mileage from some intermediate moment. At each short-term (less than 1 second) by pressing the reset button (C), the daily mileage counter readings are switched between trips (A) and (B).
Resetting the trip meter
To reset the counter, press the reset button (0) for more than 1 second. Only the value currently displayed is reset; for example, if the value (A) was displayed, only it will be reset.
Note.
- The maximum value displayed for trips (A) and (B) is 999.9 km (or miles).
- If the battery terminal is disconnected for a long period of time, the memory of the trip meters (A) and (B) is cleared and "O" is displayed on the display.
Fuel level indicator
F. Full tank. E. Empty tank.
When the ignition is on, the fuel gauge shows the amount of fuel in the tank.
Warning: It is not recommended to drive a car with a gasoline engine with very little fuel in the tank; complete fuel exhaustion may damage the catalytic converter.
Note: When a diesel vehicle runs out of fuel, it may sometimes be difficult to start the engine after refueling. This occurs due to air entering the fuel system. Therefore, it is necessary to remove air from the system.
Fuel filler cap location indicator
The fuel filler cap location indicator (A) shows that the fuel filler cap is on the right side of the vehicle.
Low fuel warning light
This lamp lights up when the fuel level in the tank is low.
The warning lamp comes on when the remaining fuel level is:
- 3-door versions: approximately 10 l;
- 5-door versions: approximately 13 l.
You should refuel as soon as possible.
Note: This lamp may come on falsely on inclines or turns due to fuel movement in the tank.
Coolant temperature gauge
This device shows the temperature of the liquid in the engine cooling system when the ignition is on.
Caution: If the pointer enters the H zone while the engine is running, this indicates possible engine overheating. Stop the vehicle immediately in a safe place and take necessary measures. While driving, it is necessary to ensure that the engine temperature is within normal limits.
