GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND SYSTEM OPERATION

Cigar Lighter

The cigar lighter is located in the front portion of the floor console. To use the lighter, push it in completely. When the lighter is hot, it will release itself from contact with the heating element. The lighter and the heating element can be damaged if the lighter is not allowed to release itself fully from the heating element.

Ashtray

The ashtray is located below the audio system. To access the ashtray, pull it out from the center console. The ashtray lamp will go on when the parking lamps or the headlamps are turned on.

Instrument Panel Vents

The center and the side vents in the instrument panel can be adjusted up and down and from side to side. The side vents can also be aimed toward the side windows in order to defog them.

Glove Box

The glove box can be opened by pulling up on the latch handle. The glove box must be removed in order to gain access to the passenger's side airbag module.

Digital Clock

The digital clock is located in the instrument panel, above the audio system. The clock is capable of a 12-hour or a 24-hour display.

Instrument Cluster

The instrument cluster is located above the steering column and in the instrument cluster trim panel. The instrument cluster contains the instruments that provide the driver with vehicle performance information. The instrument cluster contains a speedometer, an odometer, a trip odometer, a temperature gauge, a fuel gauge, and several indicator lamps. For replacement of the indicator lamp bulbs contained in the instrument cluster, refer to "Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps Specifications" and "Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps" in this section.

Speedometer/Odometer/Trip Odometer

The speedometer measures the speed of the vehicle in km/h (mph in some countries). It consists of an instrument cluster gauge connected to the vehicle speed sensor (VSS) on the transaxle output shaft.
The odometer measures in kilometers (miles in some countries) the total distance the vehicle has traveled since it was manufactured. It consists of an instrument cluster gauge connected to the VSS on the transaxle output shaft.
The trip odometer measures the distance the vehicle has traveled since the odometer was last reset. It consists of an instrument cluster gauge connected to the VSS on the transaxle output shaft. The trip odometer can be reset to zero at any time so that the driver can record the distance traveled from any starting point.

Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge consists of an instrument cluster gauge connected to a sending unit in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge indicates the quantity of fuel in the tank only when the ignition switch is turned to ON or ACC. When the ignition is turned to LOCK or START, the pointer may come to rest at any position.

Temperature Gauge

The temperature gauge consists of an instrument cluster gauge connected to a temperature sensor that is in contact with the circulating engine coolant.
The temperature gauge indicates the temperature of the coolant. Prolonged driving or idling in very hot weather may cause the pointer to move beyond the center of the gauge. The engine is overheating if the pointer moves into the red zone at the upper limit of the gauge.

Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps

The instrument cluster contains indicator lamps that indicate the functioning of certain systems or the existence of potential problems with the operation of the vehicle. The indicator lamps are replaceable. For replacement of the indicator lamps contained in the instrument cluster, refer to "Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps Specifications" and "Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps" in this section.

Chime Module

The chime module is located above the instrument panel fuse block and will sound in order to bring attention to one or more of the following conditions:
